Description
Pixi Clarity Serum: Salicylic Acid & Probiotic Serum 30ml
Blemish-prone skin needs more than just surface-level cleansing. The Pixi Clarity Serum goes deeper — combining a clinically recognised BHA with probiotic microbiome support for a comprehensive clear-skin approach. From UK skincare brand Pixi by Petra, this 30ml daily serum is designed for oily, combination and acne-prone skin that breaks out repeatedly and struggles with congested pores.
BHA + Probiotic: A Dual-Action Approach
2% Salicylic Acid is a beta hydroxy acid (BHA) that is oil-soluble — meaning it penetrates deep into pores rather than working only on the skin surface like AHAs. Inside the pore, it dissolves excess sebum, dead skin cell debris and the sticky plug that causes blackheads and whiteheads. Simultaneously, Probiotics work to rebalance the skin's microbiome — the community of beneficial bacteria that when disrupted leads to inflammation, congestion and breakouts. By targeting the internal microbiome environment that contributes to acne, probiotics add a dimension that salicylic acid alone cannot address.
Supporting Actives
- Lactic Acid (AHA) — gentle surface exfoliation to refine texture and support cell turnover
- Niacinamide — minimises pore appearance, regulates sebum production, evens skin tone
Key Benefits
- Clears active blemishes and helps prevent future breakouts
- Deep pore-cleansing via oil-soluble 2% salicylic acid
- Probiotic microbiome balancing for long-term skin clarity
- Minimises enlarged pores and refines skin texture
- Niacinamide evens skin tone and reduces sebum
- Suitable for oily, combination and blemish-prone skin
In Your Routine
Apply after cleansing, before moisturiser. Start with 2–3 times per week and increase as skin adjusts. Always use SPF during the day — BHAs increase photosensitivity.

How To Use
1. Cleanse your face thoroughly and apply toner if used.
2. Dispense 2–3 drops of the Pixi Clarity Serum onto fingertips.
3. Apply to the entire face or to blemish-prone areas, avoiding the eye area.
4. Gently press and smooth into skin — do not rub aggressively.
5. Allow the serum to absorb for 60 seconds before applying moisturiser.
6. Finish your morning routine with SPF30 or higher — salicylic acid and lactic acid increase sun sensitivity.
7. Begin with 2–3 applications per week. Gradually increase to daily use as skin acclimatises.
8. If irritation, redness or excessive dryness occurs, reduce frequency and consult a dermatologist.
FAQs
What makes probiotics effective in an acne serum?
The skin hosts a microbiome — a community of bacteria that, when in balance, helps control inflammation and prevent harmful bacteria from thriving. Disrupted microbiome (caused by stress, harsh products, diet) correlates with more frequent breakouts. Probiotics in topical skincare help restore this balance, reducing a key root cause of recurring acne.
Can I use this serum if I have sensitive skin?
The combination of salicylic acid and lactic acid makes this a moderate-to-strong exfoliating serum. Sensitive skin types should patch test first and begin with once-weekly use. If stinging, redness or excessive peeling occurs, discontinue and consult a dermatologist.
Can I use this serum with niacinamide products?
Yes — the serum already contains niacinamide. Layering with additional niacinamide products (e.g. a separate niacinamide serum) is generally fine but watch for potential over-exfoliation if you are also using multiple active products.
Is this serum suitable for daytime or nighttime?
This serum can be used morning or evening, but SPF30+ application is essential in the morning due to photosensitising ingredients. Many prefer to use BHA serums at night to maximise overnight skin repair.
How does the Clarity Serum differ from the Overnight Radiance Serum?
The Clarity Serum uses Salicylic Acid (BHA) — oil-soluble and specifically designed for acne/pore-congestion — plus probiotics for microbiome balance. The Overnight Radiance Serum uses 10% Glycolic Acid (AHA) for PM resurfacing and brightening. Different actives, different targets, and different usage timings.
