This gentle leaveon exfoliant works within the pore lining to prevent congestion & blemishes. 2% BHA is clinically proven to visibly reduce pores, control oil & support skin's barrier. Exfoliation helps the rest of your routine absorb better and work harder for a glowing, makeupready complexion.
Ingredients:
- BHA (beta hydroxy acid): Penetrates pores to clear blemishcausing buildup and shed dead skin.
- Green Tea Extract: Potent antioxidant quickly calms redness & soothes skin barrier.
- Methylpropanediol: Hydrates & prevents water loss while visibly improving skin's glow.

Got rid of my clogged pores
The only product that got rid of all the skin toned bumps/clogged pores on my forehead.

Cult favorite for a reason
There are BHA exfoliants that are less expensive (Dermstore used to sell some from Alpha that were great!) I’m still willing to spend a little more for this though. A little goes a long way (don’t bother applying this to a pad and then your face — why? Save product and just use clean fingers!) It isn’t a magic pill but I do see overnight improvements in acne on my body. My face doesn’t tolerate much in the way of acids, but I use this whenever I see spots appearing on my back or chest. After applying every other night for about a week, I’m usually good as new. Love!

Results!!
After using for two weeks consistently, I noticed an improvement in my uneven skin texture.I was more impressed than I thought I'd be. First product from using Paula's Choice! It makes your forehead super shiny (in a good way)!! There is a slight tingle after using (I experienced) but overall will keep this in my skincare regimen.

LOVE!!
I bought this to spot treat the occasional pimple. At first I was a little wary of using it whole face as I am in my 50s and was nervous of it drying my skin. What a mistake! I don't usually use it on a daily basis but limit it to about 3 times a week, making sure to top it with a good moisturizer. The next morning my skin is glowing and smooth. When I do use it on an occasional breakout it is gone by morning. I love using it before events or date night because it leaves my skin looking so pretty and makes my foundation glide on. Don't be scared to use this...it isn't your teen years stridex or oxy pads!! I understand why it's one of Paula's Choice top sellers

Excellent sunscreen for combo skin
This sunscreen came recommended by my dermatologist and it is fantastic. I have combo skin. It goes on smoothly without leaving residue and has helped my complexion while providing sun protection.

Great Results
This is a must in my routine. After trying several other chemical exfiators that were very irritating for my skin, I am glad I gave this a try. It is gentle enough to use daily and I am seeing results. The dark pigmentation from acne scars are already fading. I use this once a day follwed by a vitamin C serum, a lactic acid treatment every other day, and a retinol cream every 3-4 days.
