    I love PC products and this is one of them. I have been on Accutane before so I don't often get breakouts and I use her products to maintain my skin. Was originally using the 2% skin perfecting...

    Does not irritate me. Haven't seen dramatic decrease in my long-term blackheads yet, but have noticed reduced break-outs. The full-size packaging dispenser is good for finger tip application,...

    I've been using it daily for the last six months together with the 2% BHA Liquid - I use CLEAR for the day and the BHA Liquid for the night. Unlike the BHA Liquid, it absorbs very quickly, almost...

    This stuff gets the job done. It's really helping with my closed comedones and hormonal acne. I originally was using the Skin Perfecting 2% BHA liquid but I found it pretty drying. I've gotten the...

    I have a love/hate relationship with this product. It feels light on the face and doesn't leave it oily, and it's a good chemical exfoliation product, but while it manages to control my hormonal...

    I used to be a fan of the 2% bha liquid, but the texture left something to be desired. I hated the way it felt slimy and heavy on my skin. I guess it was formulated that way to keep skin from...

    As a guy here on MuA, skincare is more important than makeup. And if I had to pick up a HG skincare item this would be the one. I can easily switch around other products in my routine, but I would...

    Out of all the BHA products Paula offers in the 1% and 2% range, (and yes I've tried each one) this is the one I like best. No stickness or strange texture like the BHA gel/lotion and does not add...
