Q: Can I use the COSRX Salicylic Acid Daily Gentle Cleanser every day? A: Yes, most skin types can use it twice daily. If your skin runs dry or sensitive, start with once a day in the evening and increase as your skin builds tolerance.

Q: Will this cleanser dry out my skin? A: The formula is designed not to strip the skin. Glycerin, cocamidopropyl betaine, and soothing botanical extracts help keep the skin’s barrier comfortable, so most people find it gentle enough for daily wash.

Q: Does the COSRX Salicylic Acid Daily Gentle Cleanser remove makeup? A: It lifts light makeup and sunscreen well, but for heavier makeup or waterproof SPF, we recommend using a dedicated oil cleanser or cleansing balm first, then following up with this BHA wash.

Q: Can I pair this with other BHA or retinol products? A: Yes, but ease in. Since it’s a rinse-off BHA, it generally layers fine with leave-on actives, but watch for dryness or irritation. Space out your strongest actives if your skin is reactive.

Q: Is it safe for pregnancy? A: Salicylic acid in low amounts in a rinse-off product is generally considered low-risk, but always consult your healthcare provider before adding any new active skincare during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

By the end of the Victorian era, the world had changed irrevocably. The speed of the technological development brought about between 1800 and 1900 was completely unprecedented in human history. And as the Victorians looked to the skies and beyond as the next frontier to be explored and conquered, they were inventing, shaping and moulding the very idea of the future.To get us to this future, the Victorians created a new way of ordering and transforming nature, built on grand designs and the mass-mobilisation of the resources of Empire – and they revolutionised science in the process.In this rich and absorbing book, distinguished historian of science Iwan Rhys Morus tells the story of how this future was made. From Charles Babbage's dream of mechanising mathematics to Isambard Kingdom Brunel's tunnel beneath the Thames, from George Cayley's fantasies of powered flight to Nikola Tesla's visions of an electrical world, this is a story of towering personalities, clashing ambitions, furious rivalries and conflicting cultures – a vibrant tapestry of remarkable lives that transformed the world and ultimately took us to the Moon.AUTHOR:Iwan Rhys Morus is professor of history at Aberystwyth University. He has published widely on the history of science, with titles including Michael Faraday and the Electrical Century (Icon, 2017), Nikola Tesla and the Electrical Future (Icon, 2019) and the Oxford Illustrated History of Science.
