    Love this just as much as I love the BHA. The same comments apply. Absorbs quickly and leaves no white residue. I use allover even on my back. Works excellent under my make-up and sunscreen. I...

    I had a lot of pimples on my forehead in the last 4 months due to lack of sleep, and I made matter worse by touching it. I tried many products to control it. Nothing works and it made my skin drier...

    This stuff is pretty good. I use it all over my face twice a day, and it definitely controls breakouts better than anything else I've used. The best and worst part about this product is the...

    I love this stuff. I rarely break out, but as preventative medicine, I put a thin layer of this on my nose and chin about once a week. I started off using it more often, but cut back when my skin...

    I really think this stuff works well. I never really had a big problem with break outs, but now, I really don't get any at all. I use it right after Paula's 1% BHA and the combination seems to keep...

    This is the most gentle BP I've found. My skin tends to be dry in winter and I can use this twice a day and it does not dry or burn my skin but it still keeps most blemishes at bay. There is no...

    My HG benzoyl peroxide lotion (2.5%). It reminds me of ProActiv solution, but PC doesn't contain fragrance, which is perfect for me. It's not too drying and it is SO lightweight. It doesn't...

    Another over-rated, over-priced, unproductive product by Queen Paula. Persagel did a better job of "fighting" my blemishes than this stuff. Don't waste your money.

    This appears to be a YMMV product. For me at least, it does nothing. It definitely didn't prevent breakouts. In fact, it seems to actually cause whiteheads so I'm wondering if its got some sort of...

    Another HG from Paula's Choice that I wouldn't be without. I just recently tried another blemish fighting product that I also like but is "colored" and needs to be used at night. PC is a lotion...

    This product works well at clearing up my "time of the month" breakouts. I have learned to just apply it directly to the spot, otherwise it makes my skin flake. I get a handful of little bumps on...

    This product works great. My breakouts has lessen dramaticaly. It hardens the pimple so that it doesn't appear red. Great price for a generous amount of product.
