Clarifying Exfoliant with 2% Salicylic Acid, BHA Liquid Exfoliant for Face, Unclogs, Minimizes Appearance of Pores, Blue Algae and Antioxidants Help Calm Redness, For Acne Prone Skin, 4 fl oz

I tried this as a more affordable alternative to the Paula's Choice. It works great for me! I use it every day before SPF and foundation. It refines my skin's texture and seems to keep my SPF and foundation from building up in my pores at the end of the day. I have had no negative reactions or sensitivities to this product. I'm on my second bottle and will keep using it!

This works great. I can tell a difference in my skin the next morning.It does feel a little sticky right after applying, but is fine after it gets.

This was very nice. It cleaned my face very welll

Very good for acne prom skin

My skin type:- Very Dry, easily dehydrated- Oily nose- Prone to stubborn acne and closed comedones- Redness on chin and cheeks (not rosacea)I already use a nightly Tretinoin cream (.04% concentration) to help with my acne and premature signs of aging but decided with my derm that incorporating a BHA would be a good idea to help with my seriously stubborn closed comedones and some irritating textural issues. It was between this and the Cerave SA lotion and I ultimately decided on this due to the higher concentration of salicylic acid.It's moisturizing, and feels sticky for the first 5-10 minutes after application but seems to sinks in to something of a satin finish on me and I can no longer feel it on my skin. You just have to be a little patient. My skin feels well hydrated and plump after it settles and looks really smooth and my pores aren't as obvious. It sits just fine under makeup for me but I'm not a new user to chemical exfoliants so I don't have lots of dead skin pilling up or sloughing off when I use it, my skin is, for the most part, already very smooth outside the acne and CCs. Occasionally I'll apply it further down my neck/decolletage than usual and WOW do I old skin just ball up and peel right away - it's so gross but also satisfying. So those that don't exfoliate often or are new to BHA/AHAs will likely have issues with foundation until their skin adjusts (but it will adjust). My advice in those cases is to either use this at night for the first few weeks or just accept going barefaced for a little while if you can.I'd strongly suggest not applying this product over anything that you feel does not dry down fully, the times I've attempted to use it after serums or heavier products it takes forever to sink in and sometimes never fully does. I save all my serums and essences for after this has absorbed and it's far easier to work with it as a result. My steps go like this most days: ACWell Licorice toner --- PC 2% BHA --- 10% Niacinamide serum --- TO Matryxil serum --- Secret Key Black Snail cream or Syn-ake cream w/ 3 drops Stratia Fortify oil --- Sunscreen.It works fairly quickly IMO, on my neck where I typically don't apply my Tret at night I noticed the peeling and balling of dead skin on day one and on my face where I have a patch of really awful CCs I noticed them getting smaller and smoother by around day 3-4. I'm going on about 8 days now and they're barely visible unless I'm right up in the mirror and feel as if they're almost gone when I touch my fingers to that area. I do have some slight peeling of the skin around my mouth and nose but it's not terrible (likely because I already exfoliate the heck out of my skin with the tret).Some tips and things keep in mind:1)DO NOT RINSE IT OFF. I don't understand some of the top reviews advising people to do that, it says on the bottle not to rinse and nearly all chemical exfoliators are meant to be left on until the next cleansing specifically so they can do their job. If you rinse it off you're either going to prevent it from properly exfoliating or end up irritating the hell out of your skin. If you have oily skin and feel this might be heavy on you than you can probably just use this on bare skin and then sunscreen if you use in the AM or a lightweight lotion/cream and be done with it, but you need to leave it on your skin.2)You have got to use sunscreen while you're using this product! Any BHA or AHA exfoliant causes increased sun sensitivity and you have to address that in your routine. You should already use sunscreen daily but it becomes a must when you incorporate a chemical exfoliator or you risk sun damage.3)Less is more! Don't slop this on your face or soak a cotton pad in it, a little goes a long way and you'll be kicking yourself if you apply way too much and have to wait 20+ minutes for it to sink in. Use a shake or two and add more if needed but go easy.4)Expect some irritation initially. Chemical exfoliants can be harsh and rough even on sturdy skin and you have to give yourself time to adjust. Over-exfoliation is a possibility but sometimes just introducing a BHA or AHA into your routine can cause some sensitivity. Don't panic and just be gentle to your skin. Use ceramides (like Cerave Skin Renewing cream) or fatty oils to soothe your face if needed and try to stay away from any harsh products or acids like Vitamin C right after applying this to avoid really burning your face.

I didn’t want to pay the premium price for Paula’s Choice BHA liquid exfoliant, so I went looking for something cheaper and found this. I want to say it is more effective, but it might be because I’m willing to use more because it doesn’t cost a lot. I have rosacea, and it has definitely helped with the redness. I also have ridiculously sensitive skin, and I’ve had no reaction to this. I don’t use it everyday, but I’m happy every time I use it.

I really like this. It always removes dirt from my face that I didn’t even know was there after already washing my face for the day!

This was my first time using Salicylic Acid 2% and I got this product because it was recommended in an article that I read where people tested different exfoliants. I used it at night twice weekly for a few weeks and it seemed fine when I would first apply it, then after I let it dry and applied my gentle moisturizer, some parts of my face would burn and turn red. I know some other reviews already mention this type of reaction, but I wanted to add my input as well. I gave it 3 stars because I didn't use it long enough to see if it made a difference. I'm going to try a 0.5% Salicylic Acid instead to see if that is gentler on my skin.

Does the job
