It seems to help others so I decided to purchase it. It was around $20 for the travel size which is a bit expensive and $45 for the full size. I didn’t expect the travel size to be this small. But I will try it and I’d i like the product I’ll let it slide. The small ass bottle came in a huge box with paper cushioning it. I do think it was a bit excessive but that’s oki bc this was $20 for a tiny little bottle so I’d it got wrecked on the way I would flip. LMAO

When I first got the bottle I was surprised to see how small it was. After using it I'm happy with the quality of the product. I'm in my late 30s and have adult acne. I noticed that my acne has reduced since I started using the liquid and my skin is brighter. I use the liquid with a mosituriser but avoid other products as it can be a bit strong. Overall, would recommend for sure.

I have heard many times that this is a really good product, so I decided to buy it. The first thing I noticed what that it was literally tiny and costs $15 for such a small bottle. I have quite sensitive skin and have used a couple times, but it was all good. Haven’t seen any results yet, but will update if I do.

FINALLY a product that actually addresses the stubborn hormonal blackheads and clogged pores I get on my chin that I’ve never been able to get rid of!
Bye bye deep, sore pimples.
I had some small spots of purging after starting to use this, but I’m not unhappy about it because it just means it’s working and the area that’s been previously untreatable (my chin) is finallyyyy responding to an exfoliant. I’ve found through trial and error that my skin responds much better to BHA’s than AHA’s. The latter are too harsh and strip my skin which is very sensitive and dry. I’ve even been using this product almost every night on my chin, which is much more frequently than I usually use exfoliants but somehow it’s gentle enough not to have me peeling or red and sensitive. Having said that, I don’t think I need to use it this often I’m just overexcited about the results.
I had other paula’s choice products, one with BHA in it and I even used the BHA 9 product for a while but they weren’t nearly as effective as this formula.
I will repurchase this and I’m so glad I found it after reading reviews!

Got this for my dad and he has no complaints.. definitely have seen progress in his face but he also uses cosrx products.

Skim glows, smoother and has elasticity. My dad looks less run down now that he's got a basic routine. Self care works people!!!!!

After reading the reviews I was a bit sceptical but thought I would try. My skin isn’t too bad but wanted something to improve the odd pimple here and there. After using it for the first time I noticed a difference in my skin the very next day. It looked glowing and radiant.
The pimples on my face cleared within a couple of
days. I’m in awe on how amazing this product is!!

I love using this on my face or wherever a pimple appears and it really helps with clearing it up quickly! Would definitely recommend also purchasing a nice moisturiser so it doesn’t leave your skin dried out

I have oily skin with pores especially around nose chin and cheek area and I have been using this product once every night for 2 weeks now. I don’t see any change in my pores or skin. It’s like an oily layer after you apply. Not sure if I will re buy the product but the quatity sure is good. Will update after few weeks again in case there is any change in my skin texture.

Update : been using it quite regularly for more than a month now. I don’t see much change.. but maybe the pore size on my nose have shrunk a bit. Will update again after a month.

Update on 28th Sept _ the product is actually good. Although I have not been regular , I have stopped pricking my whiteheads and my sebaceous filaments on my chin are finally gone. I will continue to use this product l. Now understand the hype. Moving the rating to 4 stars and will come back again after 2 months.

Final update: I love this product, I have been extremely irregular with the product but it’s worked on my pores and sebaceous filaments very well. It reduces my break out by 60% over night. I will continue to use it and understood finally why it’s a cult favourite for a reason. Please be patient and surely you will see the results.

I have every skin issue you can think of. Rosacea, acne (hormonal, cycstic, Whiteheads, blackheads), dehydration, excessive oiliness, redness, all of it. I’ve spent probably thousands on a multitude of different products, trying to find one that would at least make a dent. I’ve had many procedures, many trips to the dermatologist. Nothing I’ve ever used, nothing I’ve ever done, has made such a profound difference in the appearance of my skin. Having rosacea, my face often felt hot, bumpy, and burned. While my conplexion is naturally fair and pink, this has seriously covered all my bases in a gentle and effective way. I’ve been trying to turn my skin around for YEARS!! this was the product that did it. If I could give it 100 stars i would. It has seriously changed my life!!! Also sorry for the nasty pictures haha

My face was in a terrible state before this product. I looked like an alligator but not like those kinds Jimmy choo wants but more like the kinds you find in the Florida Everglades. Those wild ones that snap at humans out of jealousy for their glowing, smooth skin. I've been using the product exactly two weeks and applying twice daily as instructed. Let me tell you it has changed the game for me! I've been single for ten years now. But after two short weeks I've now been on 3 dates, had a marriage proposal, somebody's husband is my DM and a guy even offered me a puppy. Of course the puppy guy is now my commited boyfriend (but I digress) . All I'm saying is... I don't make milkshakes so it has to be this exfoliate bringing all the boys to my yard.

Ps. I have very sensitive skin and haven't experienced any burning or discomfort with the product thus far. Bye.

5.0 out of 5 stars interacts terribly with the sun

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on 11 April 2018

Size Name: 118 ml (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

This stuff should be called a miracle in a bottle. When I use it on my (pretty dry) skin, it transforms it from congested, irritated, and bright red to calm, clear, and glowing overnight.

Most of the people reviewing this are using it incorrectly. It's an acid exfoliator. That means you should use it once a week, twice at the most (if your skin is oily and needs a lot of work.) It is not supposed to soak into your skin. You should keep feeling that greasy sensation until you wash it off. Also, it should never be used during the daytime. BHA, or salicylic acid, interacts terribly with the sun. If you absolutely must put it on in the morning, follow it up with heavy SPF, but I wouldn't do it.

This stuff is like anything else- it only works if you know how to do it properly.

5.0 out of 5 stars May cause skin to purge, but that means it’s working!

There’s a lot of misinformation in other reviews about this product. This is a chemical exfoliant, so there is no need for additional chemical or physical exfoliants in your regimen unless you know your skin can handle it. Also, this product may cause your skin to purge. I have been using this product for 2 weeks and my skin is in the purge process. Yes, I have a few breakouts right now but I can already see improvement in enlarged pores, fine lines, and I’m able to extract black heads very easily (I use an extractor, never fingers!) It is normal for skin to purge on chemical exfoliants, and means that your skin is reacting positively to the ingredients. Do your research about BHA’s prior to starting this product! It’s not a toner or a cleanser either, and can cause your skin to react badly if you get too much sun exposure without SPF. Further, the bottle states to use twice daily. I wouldn’t suggest that, start every other day or once day and increase as needed. It takes at least 30+ days for people to see results with most skincare, so don’t write this product off if you start breaking out. I fully recommend this! I am in my late 20’s, have combo and acne prone skin.

Can I use Paula's Choice 2% BHA liquid exfoliant everyday?

You can use Paula's Choice BHA every day— exfoliating once either in the morning or evening (pick whichever is most convenient for you). Many people with stubborn clogged pores have great results using a Paula's Choice BHA exfoliant twice per day.
