Review: works great! - This product works wonders on my skin! I am so happy I decided to bite the bullet (especially for the price) and try it. I was struggling with 1-2 cheek acne that would become super red and inflamed. I could NOT get rid of it, and it felt like it kept coming back whenever I got it calmed down. I also have super mild acne around my chin that comes around my time of the month. I was previously using the salicylic acid from the ordinary 3x/week and as spot treatment as needed, which I think was just completely drying out my skin, and causing the cheek acne (I also think stress plays a part in this too). I came across PC salicylic acid and wanted to give it a try because of the cleaner ingredients. I was a little worried though because my skin is sensitive and on the dryer side, especially during winter months. It definitely took a while for me to figure out how many times a week I should be using this, but once I figured it out, my skin loved it! My sweet spot is using this 2x/week (and as an additional spot treatment on the “off nights” if I really need it) at night after I shower, making sure my face is dry before I apply it with my fingers. Yes, the drops go a long way, so be mindful of how much you are shaking out. The texture when applying it feels like a slippery water texture, and there is a super faint smell, which I don’t mind. I have been using this product for over 5 months and my cheek acne has gone away, largely because I think I am not drying my face out like I used to, and I have been learning to manage stress. I have also noticed that from switching to PC, my scars fade faster, my face feels overall brighter, and it honestly keeps my acne away for the most part. Being honest, yes, I did break out for like 2 weeks while adjusting to this product. After that, it’s been pretty smooth sailing! Don’t be afraid to try it and make it work for you and your skin type!
Review: Holy Grail Exfoliant for Smooth, Clear Skin - I’ve been using Paula’s Choice 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant for several weeks now, and I finally understand the hype. This product actually delivers visible results without being harsh. My skin type: Combination, acne-prone, sensitive Main concerns: Clogged pores, texture, occasional breakout. What I love: Noticeably smoother skin within the first 1–2 weeks Helps unclog pores and reduces blackheads, especially on my nose and chin Very gentle for a chemical exfoliant — no burning or irritation when used correctly Lightweight, water-like texture that absorbs quickly and layers well under moisturizer If you struggle with clogged pores, texture, or stubborn breakouts, this exfoliant is 100% worth it. It’s one of those products that quietly improves your skin over time, and I’ll definitely be repurchasing. Highly recommend! 👏

## Features

- GENTLE NON-ABRASIVE LEAVE-ON EXFOLIANT: With 2% BHA (Beta hydroxy acid), to unclog & diminish enlarged pores, exfoliate dead skin cells, smooth wrinkles, and brighten and even out skin tone. Combats redness, wrinkles, aging, enlarged pores, and blackheads.
- Dramatically improves skin's texture for radiant youthful even-toned skin. Beta hydroxy acid (BHA, also known as salicylic acid) mimics the natural exfoliation process of younger skin by helping it shed extra layers while unclogging and clearing pores.
- HYDRATE, BRIGHTEN & SMOOTH FINE LINES: Our unique, non-abrasive, leave-on exfoliant is gentle enough for daily use on all skin types. Exfoliates dead skin cells while clearing pores for a more even tone, plus it visibly reduces fine lines & wrinkles.
- Paula's Choice facial exfoliants are gentler on delicate skin of the face & neck than an abrasive face scrub, which can cause micro-tears. A BHA leave-on exfoliator delivers hydration & can exfoliate directly inside the pore & improve how the pore works.
- Paula's Choice Skincare makes products that work. No fragrance, no parabens, no fluff. Just effective, science-backed formulas that target any concern from wrinkles to breakouts.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this a cleanser or should I cleanse + exfoliate first and then apply this as a toner? Or before toner?**
A: This is your exfoliator, so no need for an additional scrub or another chemical exfoliator.  If you are new to exfoliating with a BHA this strong, putting on a toner first can help this from penetrating so quickly (which could be a good thing).  You can also put your toner on afterwards if you want the fastest exfoliation.  If you haven't used a chemical exfoliator in a while, I'd start slowly, every other day.  This one is particularly strong. This is NOT a cleanser and should not be washed off.  It is also NOT a scrub; it does not contain any abrasive ingredients like walnuts shells or sugars.  You should 1) cleanse skin 2) toner (optional) 3) this exfoliator 4) moisturizer suitable for your skin type or daytime sunscreen.

**Q: Question: When this product arrived from the seller, did it have a plastic seal or was it wrapped in anything? Mine wasn't, i'm suspicious...**
A: I have been ordering this product for over a year now and mine just arrived yesterday with different packaging, a different cap, and leaked water everywhere after taking off the white lid. It is a completely different consistency than the product usually is, so I'm pretty sure I just paid $30+ for water.

**Q: How long did you use them before noticing a difference in improved skin tone, or diminish closed comedones?**
A: My face has never been this soft! It's only been one application. I got this mainly for even skin tone. I can't wait!  Feels so clean! Recommend for sure!

**Q: Can it be used under makeup ?**
A: Even though it's leave-on, it's still an exfoliator so use it after your cleanser. (If your skin feel greasy after use, you're using to much) Then Moisturizer, after that put your makeup on like normal. Hope that answers your question :)
