Hi, my cat likes to lick my face. It’s very cute but I also worry about face cream that I might have put on. I usually discourage face licking for a couple hours after I’ve applied face cream but I’m wondering if all the face cream really absorbs into my face.
Like I usually use this one that has sunscreen in it, But last night I used one with salicylic acid and she licked my face once before I remembered and removed my face. I mean it was last night so hopefully most of it was rubbed off and/or absorbed but now I’m worried because you read bad things about cats and salicylic acid. The face cream was only 1% salicylic acid and she only got one lick in.
Basically should I be worried about the fact that she licked my face that might’ve had salicylic acid still on it ? And should I not let her lick my face even when I have let face cream soak in?
