SKIN PERFECTING 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant with Salicylic Acid, Facial Polish for Enlarged Pores, Wrinkles & Fine Lines, Suitable for Blackhead-Prone Skin, Fragrance-Free

the best liquid exfoliant. if you want glass skin and zeros pores then get this. i’ve used this for over two years now and my skin is brighter, smoother, and i seriously don’t have pores on my face anymore and i know it’s because of this product.

I really liked this liquid exfoliant. It helps renew the skin without irritating it, leaving my face smoother and feeling deeply cleansed. The texture is light, it applies easily, and absorbs quickly. I've used it regularly and have noticed that it improves the appearance of my skin, helping to remove dead skin cells and allowing other products to absorb better. It doesn't leave a sticky feeling or dry out my skin. It's ideal for combination skin like mine.

I’ve struggled for YEARS with acne-prone, oily skin, trying product after product with little to no success — until I found this gem! 🌟 From the first few uses, I noticed my skin felt smoother and less congested, and within a couple of weeks, my breakouts were visibly fewer and my pores looked cleaner and smaller. This exfoliant has truly been a miracle for my skin — it unclogs pores, controls oil, and helps keep future acne at bay. My complexion now looks clearer, calmer, and more balanced than it has in such a long time. I also love that it’s lightweight and absorbs beautifully without feeling sticky or harsh. Highly recommend to anyone with oily, acne-prone skin! 💛✨

I LOVE this product, but it didn't help with my enlarged pores or wrinkles as I'd hoped. That said, it definitely helped with blackheads, which was a nice bonus. My routine: I have combination skin and use this on my face both morning and night. Applied it with a cotton round. Texture: Left a greasy feel after application, which wasn't ideal but manageable. Why I tried it: Had good reviews on Amazon and other sites, so I thought I'd give it a go. Value: One bottle lasts a long time - good bang for your buck. Current status: Had to stop using it with other skin treatments I'm on now (tretinoin), but I bought several bottles when I was using it regularly because I liked it so much for blackheads. Bottom line: If you're dealing with blackheads, this works really well. Just don't expect miracles for pores or anti-aging. I'd still recommend it for what it does best.

After three weeks, Paula’s Choice Liquid Exfoliant has made a noticeable difference in my skin texture and pore clarity, especially around my nose and T-zone. My pores look cleaner and more refined, and my skin feels smoother with consistent use. The lightweight, fragrance-free formula absorbs quickly and layers well under other products. I did experience irritation when I applied it to my neck, but that completely went away once I stopped using it there and kept it to my face only. This product works best for me once at night. Overall, it’s an effective exfoliant that delivers real results as long as you’re mindful of placement and frequency.

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! 👏

My facial skin type is a medium dry / oily.. but maybe can lean towards dry a smidgen more... I have basic pores & this helps close them to a satisfying amount! Can still see pores but they definitely have been reduced in size! For me i find it best to apply at night (after washing my face), let it dry, then apply a night time moisturizer. I do this process maybe 3 to 4 times out of a 7 day week making sure to skip a day to let my face just relax so I don't over exfoliate or over moisturize. Hope this helps who ever may be reading this!! I hope you find the best way to care for your beautifully unique self!!

First off, I don’t do reviews unless a product is really bad or really good, because I expect that a product should do what it is advertised to do. I’m also HIGHLY skeptical when it comes to beauty products. I was told in my 20’s that once you get large pores, you can’t shrink them. So, I made the best I could with the pores on my nose that had already started to get more noticeable. I used all sorts of things, pore strips, clay masks and charcoal masks. My regimen still includes steaming, then putting a clay mask on my t zone over night once a week or so. I’m 49, and I was still under the belief that I would have to deal with enlarged pores, along with the fine lines I’ve started to develop, all as a normal part of aging. But this year, when face primer and makeup was no longer hiding my pores, I had enough! I would like to say quickly, my pores are clean, they aren’t blackheads, they are just large, and numerous. So, looking on Amazon I came across this product. I read the reviews and it seemed as though this worked for others, and wasn’t ridiculously priced, so I bought it a month ago, and started using it as directed. Twice a day, morning and night, after I wash my face, I apply it to my entire face, neck, and chest. Once upon a time I was also told, whatever you do for your face, do for your entire neck and chest, this is called your décolletage, and you will thank yourself when you are older, because if you don’t apply your beauty routine to the whole area, you will have a crepey neck and wrinkly cleavage, which will stand out because it won’t match your face. In the immortal words of Dolly Parton in Steel Magnolias: “Honey, time marches on and eventually you realize it's marchin' across your face!” So there is no getting away from aging, but we can at least keep moisturized and looking our best. I have sensitive skin, and can’t just use anything on my face, other reviewers said the same, and they had no issues with this product irritating their sensitive skin. Absolutely did NOT irritate my skin! I wash my face, apply it, then apply my lotion. No burning of any sort. It was so gentle, I was half thinking it might not even have anything in it to even do what it says it can do! A month later, I can tell you, my pores haven’t completely disappeared, but are smaller, and have become shallower as well. You can still see them, but I am looking with a super high magnifying mirror. I hope that it will continue to make them smaller, but even if I have hit the maximum that it can do for me, I will keep buying it and using it to make sure to keep them the same level I’ve achieved so far. With a primer and makeup, I’m very happy that my nose pores no longer stand out! 5 stars, highly recommend, and I’m putting this on my list of subscriptions so I never run out! If you got to the bottom of this, you have the patience to buy this and give it a chance. Tell ‘em Large Marge sent ya! ;)
