    I gave this a try two times on separate occasions but the conclusion remains the same: BHAs just don't work very well on my skin. This product just simply made my skin flakey and dry without any of...

    Really happy with this BHA exfoliant, especially compared to the gel version. This one works just as well as the gel, but it doesn't leave a residue and therefore doesn't make my foundation ball...

    I want to love PC brand. I LOVE beautypedia, although I’ve found they favor certain brands & leave negative reviews on others. (Fragrance in neutrogena products is ok & gets 5 stars. The ordinary...

    This product is pure magic in a bottle. After just one week of use the results are UNREAL. This is next level even compare to the AHA formula. My pores are not noticeable anymore, the fine lines...

    I can 100% understand why this BHA liquid exfoliant has very mixed reviews. It does take time and experimentation to find the perfect technique for your own skin. My skin is dry/combination and I...

    I am glad this worked for so many people, but I would strongly caution anyone with sensitive skin or fungal acne against using it. I have sensitive, acne prone skin (fungal and hormonal) and this...

    I can’t believe how bad this product is! First weeks I woke up being surprised how I could see absolutely no difference. Where was the radiant skin as promised? Not to see in my mirror for sure!...

    This is a good basic leave on exfoliant. I love Paula’s Choice products for their simplicity. And that’s what this is. It’s a thin liquid, it absorbs quickly into the skin. Makeup applies...

    It always trips me out when a highly praised product lives up to the hype but I am blown away by how well this stuff works. I've not had great success with salicylic acid products in the past. I...
