Paula's Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Gel Exfoliant - Targets Blackheads & Enlarged Pores - Exfoliating Peel With Salicylic Acid - All Skin Types

Wow.. the hype is real. I used this last night for the first time and woke up with a magnificent glow. There’s a reason there’s a ton of buzz around this product. I imagine my skin won’t tolerate using it daily, but I do anticipate using every other day. Buy it!

I love the PC liquid exfoliant and decided to give the gel a try. It’s a clear gel that is easy to spread. It doesn’t feel heavy on your skin. The pump lets out the perfect amount- so only one pump needed. I like to use it in the winter time when the liquid can be a bit drying for my skin. The only con is that it sometimes makes my sunscreen pill-so I have to switch to nighttime use. I feel like the gel bottle lasts longer because I don’t lose product to a cotton pad. Both of them do a great job of clearing my pores. I will continue to purchase the liquid for warmer months and the gel for colder/dry months.

I love, love, love this Paula's Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant Treatment. I started using this about a year ago and it has made my skin so nice. This is not just for acne-prone skin. It's for all types of skin. I'm using it to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles and make my skin smoother in general. Another plus to of this product is it's a liquid exfoliator. It is not harsh and abrasive like crystal microdermabrasion treatments. 😍 ❤ 😍 ❤

This product definitely works. I use it just once a week and twice a week if I have a acne/pimples. This definitely speeds up the process of healing acne/pimples. I've never broke out or have had any kind of reaction after using this product so I'd say it's pretty gentle. My one issue with this product is it leaves a weird film on your skin - I could using lots of hydration on top helps with it but I wish it absorbed into the skin better. It didn't make a huge difference to my skin but my skin does look SLA bit brighter in the morning after using this. I recommend!

It’s been my fav since I started using it. Start with once every two days and see how your skin tolerates it. I use it every night. Just cleanse and tone, and apply this and leave it on for a couple of minutes. Then I go ahead with my moisturizer and facial oil at night or sunscreen in day time. It’s wonderful. My skin loves it.

This product is great! Initially I wasn’t super sure how to use it. I’ve added it to my skin care night routine twice a week. I follow it (next day) with retinol, then two days of moisturizer. This has been a game changer for my skin!!! Acne and scars have finally improved and I couldn’t be more grateful!

I’ve been using this since December, so about 3 months now (I was of course influenced by tik tok), however, I don’t notice a difference in my skin at all. I still have blackheads and enlarged pores the same as when I started it. I use it every other night and I’ve used it with just my hands and a cotton pad. Any suggestions to help it work better?

So I’m writing this review early on, have only used it once so far and will try again next week to begin the process of working up to using it more often. I will say I felt that it was working and I didn’t sustain any crazy reactions or burns. As a preface I have dry sensitive acne prone skin and am dealing with texture and dark spots bc of it. Some things tk note the smell is definitely chemical-y. Also idk what I was expecting but it’s a watery product but on the skin it becomes oily ? I found it a little hard to dispense but now I know better. On application it was ok but it shortly started to feel like a burning sensation and my cheeks did flush. I let it sit for a little bit before continuing with my routine just to get used to it. Felt fine after I ... MoreSo I’m writing this review early on, have only used it once so far and will try again next week to begin the process of working up to using it more often.

Felt fine after I moisturized.overall skin did feel right into the next day as well and after the initial use I didn’t have any left over burning or redness but I did feel tight the next few days , and maybe some light irritation but again it was my first time using. No flakiness luckily :) will be trying again and seeing how well I handle it

Another Paula’s Choice item from Sephora! This one actually worked for dry skin. It has softened my skin so much in just one week; It feels like a rose petal. I have not seen any improvements in my skin tone tho, I still have some hyperpigmentation around my eyes, mouth, and my forehead. I will update if I start to notice a difference. Do not recommend it you have acne or shave your face often (due to cuts), because this burns so bad if you put it on top of a pimple you were picking at or a razor cut. I literally felt my soul leave me body when I put it on my freshly shaved upper lip (I had a small cut) 😭 so just be cautious about that. This does not do anything for texture either even though it is an exfoliatant, but that is not one of the claims so that’s on me ... MoreAnother Paula’s Choice item from Sephora!
