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.
Clinical Results:
- 'Clinically proven to visibly reduce pores & control oil
- Based on an independent clinical study with 32 subjects after 4 weeks.
- 'Clinically proven to visibly reduce blackheads & whiteheads
- Based on an independent clinical study with 33 subjects after 1 week.
- 'Clinically proven to improve skin barrier
- Based on an independent clinical study of 29 subjects.
- Apply once or twice daily after cleansing and toning.
- Gently shake 1-2x onto hands or a cotton pad.
- Apply to face and neck (avoid contact with your lash line and eyelids).
- Do not rinse.
- Follow with serum and/or moisturizer.
- For daytime wear, always finish with SPF 30+.

Love!
I am back to Paula's Choice BHA Exfoliant after using another brand for a few years. After reading information on line regarding BHA and AHA, I determined that BHA is better for my skin concerns. I'm so glad I switched back! My skin is clearer and my occasional clogged pores and breakouts have disappeared. I use twice a day, with no dryness or irritation. A mainstay in my skincare routine.

Love!
I have been eyeing this product for a good bit-I'm glad I tried it! Right after using, my forehead looked so shiny! I've noticed results after being consistent. My face does get a little red when applying but goes away after a few minutes. Might just be the amount I am using or skin type. BUT I DO LOVE!

Great Exfoliant
A regular in my routine and amazing value. I sometimes use it twice daily. It feels very moisturizing on my skin and It takes a minute to be absorbed.

Safe on my sensitive skin
Holy cow I have been through so much irritation trying to find an exfoliant that’s works for my dry sensitive skin. I have tried glycolic, lactic, and I still find them too harsh. This along with other calming ingredients has gotten rid of my flakes, prevented breakouts, and smoothed my skin! A huge yes for me! I use it only once a week and I don’t use it with any other active ingredients in other products like vitamin C or A. (I alternate days and times for those) Give this a try and I think you will be happy with the results!

Gentle, if used sparingly
I have sensitive, dry skin, so I don't tend to exfoliate much (if at all) in the winter usually. However, I've been able to use this once a week with no issues with my skin at all. Very excited to continue to use this and in the warmer months, may increase use.

Can do no wrong!
Been using this 2-3x a week for over a year and my skin has never looked better! I think it has helped clear up acne as well as refine my skin. Definitely recommend!

Very Good
From a dermopharmacist and cosmetologist perspective I highly recommend this product for several reasons: 1) An essential part of your skincare routine since it removes residues and debris that are not removed by your regular face wash and prepares your skin to accept the remaining products(serum, etc..) for optimal results. 2) Contains a good amount of salicylic acid to exfoliate blackheads, whiteheads, minimize pores and clear out your skin over time. 3) Very gentle on the skin(I have combination/sensitive skin type) so it does not cause any irritations or burns. 4) Price is affordable for its size since it will last you at least 2 months if used daily.

Game changer!!!
If your looking for a twice a week exfoliator, this is definitely calling your name. I love how I can rely on this product to clear my congested nose and pores. I definitely see a difference if I don’t use this holy grail! Just repurchased another bottle from Sephora!
