I just started using the product today but I really like it. It feels very nice, smooth and luxurious on the skin. Can’t wait to see the effects. I have acne and recently started a new facial routine.
I’m two weeks in and seeing a significant difference.
Pro’s – clear and less visible pores, smoother skin, less facial hair ???, and I don’t feel clogged at all.
Not so keen on – drying effect I’m feeling that my moisturiser isn’t sinking in well. But this is expected due to what the product is for.
his is the best thing i have ever used on my skin. I have always suffered with very dry skin and oily skin and i have tried allsorts of over the counter creams and also prescription creams and nothing worked but since i started using this my skin has never looked better.
I thought I’d give this a go from a recommendation never expecting it to make such a difference. After reaching the menopause I found my skin to be inconsistent – sometimes dry, sometimes dehydrated and sometimes blotchy. However the greatest issue I had was the lower neck, upper chest area which developed deep wrinkles, often hot and somehow lumpy.
I bought the small bottle and wasn’t surprised by the small size having read the other reviews. However, 4 small drops daily for 2 weeks, followed by 4 small drops daily for both my husband and I (he seems to end up using most of my products!) lasted a further 8 weeks which equates to approximately 4 months supply using it once a day.
I does have a slight smell, which I love and is not overpowering or offensive. It is absorbed quickly and you can use sun cream or moisturiser straight afterwards.
The difference was noticeable within 7-10 days and after about 3 weeks I realised I will never be without it again. I’ve since bought the biggest size and sometimes use it twice a day. Excellent for uneven skin tone and fine lines plus the clearing up more problematic areas. It does recommend using it sparingly at first so I do recommend buying the small bottle to see if it is suitable. Whilst I’ve gone on to the large bottle, I’ve bought the small one for my overnight/holiday bag, it’s that good.
I loved this. I tend to get bad break outs on my chest particularly during the summer months when it’s hotter. This helped TREMENDOUSLY, overnight the break outs were visibly gone. But I had to use it sparingly as it’s quite expensive. I’ve since switched to a cheaper salicylic acid but use this when break outs get really bad.
I first started using it once every other day in the evening, but now I use it once a day – adding a few drops onto a cotton wool pad.
It has changed my skin, evened out my complexion, and I now have less aggressive breakouts.
I still break out – but it’s not as bad as it used to be! IMO this is a miracle in a bottle and everyone should try it.
I have fairly sensitive skin and had absolutely no issue with reactions from this, it was a good strength. It definitely has kept breakouts at bay and cleared my skin beautifully, I wish it was a little stronger as I think visible results will take time and patience but I’m balancing that with my skin sensitivity.
On the whole it’s a great product that I’ll definitely repurchase, and its way more reasonably priced that some of the available alternatives!
I hadn’t realised it was a tiny bottle and wanted to send it back and realised I couldn’t so I thought I may as well use it. So glad I did. A little of this elixir goes a long way and I’ve been so pleased with how it has improved my skin. My nose and forehead in particular were in need of help and I kept noticing more blackheads (mainly thanks to the menopause) but this has really improved them to the point my partner remarked at how ‘clean’ my skin looked! I use it prior to going to bed and use a couple of times a week now as part of my skin care routine. Nice thing about smaller bottle is I can also take it on my holiday in my hand luggage.
Can’t say I’ve noticed a difference in my problem areas, but it has made my forehead shinier and smooth overall. It also makes make up apply better and lasts longer. Would repurchase for that reason alone.
The liquid exfoliant is easy to use and absorbs quickly without leaving any greasy residue. Within a week, my skin was noticeably less oily, and the redness began to fade. My skin felt smoother and softer, a significant improvement from the constant greasiness and irritation.
After a few weeks of use, my problem spots were almost gone, and the redness was significantly reduced. My beard line, previously itchy and oily, was now calm and clear. The product also worked well on the spots on the back of my neck caused by shaving.
Although it’s a bit expensive, the bottle lasts a long time since you only need a tiny amount. The packaging is sleek and compact, making it easy to store and perfect for travel. Paula’s Choice SKIN PERFECTING 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant has truly delivered on its promises, making it a fantastic investment for anyone with oily skin.
i put a LITTLE bit on, like 3 drops (thats all u need) , rub it in, neck and face and then my moisturiser over it!! = skin glowing!!
HIGHLY recommend
However, I had to ration my use as it started to irritate the skin around the nose which I put down to the fact that I wasn’t too careful about exceeding area to be ckeansed
My skin was starting to look old and after about a week of using this I honestly felt like my skin looked 10 years younger. It’s also great for zapping spots.
I have been using this product for 2 weeks. It was recommended to me by a friend who is a beautician. The difference in the overall tone of my face and it has reduced the pores. Would definitely recommend
In terms of the product. I’ve only started using it and seeing an immense impact on pore size and blocked pores.
I look forward to seeing the impact after a few more weeks.
If you’re on the fence, I say go for this to test out before you commit to the full bottle.
Works great to get rid of my scars next time I need to get the biggest one
I have struggled with acne-prone and uneven skin for years, but BHA liquid exfoliant has been a game-changer for me.
A little goes a long way with this product, and I mainly use it on my nose to combat blackheads and congestion. The exfoliant is very gentle yet effective, leaving my skin feeling smooth and refreshed. It has also helped to minimize the appearance of my pores and reduce the frequency of breakouts.
What I appreciate most about this product is its natural and gentle approach. I have very sensitive skin, but this exfoliant does not irritate or dry out my skin like other products I have tried.
Overall, I would highly recommend Paula’s Choice BHA to anyone in need of a gentle and effective solution for acne-prone and uneven skin. It has truly transformed my skin and I can’t imagine going back to my old skincare routine without it.
I had big open pours under my eyes which made it look like I had bags and after 2 weeks of consistent usage made them shrink and my face is back to normal I’m definitely buying again.
After shaving I would highly recommend to use
Helps a lot with irritation
It does what it says
One of the best products I have ever used for flawless skin !!!Simply amazing
This exfoliant is the best in the game, I have been using this on and off over the years which is one of the mistakes i have made as consistency is key. this should be incorporated into your daily routine forever!i use this product twice daily on my face and neck. To ensure the product works well i always cleanse and tone to clean the skin so that paula choice bha can really penetrate deep into the skin. Doing this twice daily has my skin looking clearer, smoother and brighter, the scars and pimples have reduced and my open pores have shrunk. Since using the product I have had a strangers, family and friends say how my skin is glowing and radiant and wearing makeup now looks flawless! I am honestly so pleased with the product, I have advising everyone I meet to buy this product!!
Honestly the best! I’ve been using this everyday sometimes twice a day or every other day depending on how my skin is (spotty or not). Can honestly say this has cleared my skin and made me look younger! Make sure you use serum and cream after!
Had so many spots, I suffer with adult acne on my chin and jaw, and within a week it cleared it all up, still not given it 5 as it massively dried my skin out but I guess that is the price you pay and I am very happy to be rid of the acne
The bottle is really small but other than that i feel like its made a difference. I have a lot of blemishes with small limps almost beneath them that would flare up with hormones, i feel like its helped clear them as well as reduce pigmentation due to inflammation.
Quick tip: although it is safe for daily use I recommend keeping it to every other day or three days a week depending on your skin needs and your skincare routine. Over exfoliating can occur if you have a lot of exfoliating products in your skincare routine. Sharing from experience
Pro tip: pair this with a niacinamide serum after ( just make sure your serum is okay with being mixed with other products I use the brand inkey list ) and don’t FORGET SPF of you use it during the day. BEST TO USE AT NIGHT.
The value and a great product according to.my girl friend
been using this product for around 3 weeks now 2-3x a week so far so good i’ve had no bad reactions so that’s good
It’s too soon to tell, but my first impressions of this product are positive. I’ve applied it on alternate days and my pores seem reduced. It is strong, though; be cautious.
