ADULT ACNE FINALLY UNDER CONTROL!!!
Amazing product! The progress with this takes a few months ...but please be patient! At 33 years old I never thought I’d be free from breakouts and scarring from cystic hormonal type acne. Started using once a day on a cotton pad at night. Skin will sting a tad & be slightly flaky to start after a few days. Skin may “purge” spots as pores are unclogged but this will calm down - trust me! Once skin becomes flaky I then reduced to use all over my face every 3 days, but everyday along my jawline and neck. I follow with a light oil free moisturiser. Honestly, I have used around 2 bottles in 8 months and I get minimal spots now, and they heal very quickly. Any inflammation comes up and I pop a dab of this on! Skin also feels so smooth too. This is a real review!!! It could change your life!!

A miracle product for taking down spots and refining the skin!
As someone who is a bit of a skin care addict I highly recommend this product! Especially if you have troublesome acne prone skin like me. I use this every other night in between using Paula’s choice retinol cream. It is also fantastic when you get a spot and need it to be gone ASAP! Just dab some on the affected area (I normally like to drench the area in it) and it will be gone or hugely reduced in a few days. If you can carefully remove any of the whitehead from the spot it will be gone even quicker. This product helps to bring everything out. It also doesn’t aggravate my skin like some anti-spot lotions can. Although I use this especially against spots, it does also help to make the skin smoother and more refined. By using Paula’s choice retinol and the BHA lotion on alternate nights, I’ve noticed an improvement in my over all skin tone. It looks supple, smoother, clearer and dewy.

Saved my beard!
I bought this for a vert particular reason, I'd been suffering from a nasty patch of white spots on my face. Though mostly hidden by my beard they often became very inflamed and sore. I'd tried everything and nothing seemed to work (even a drastic clean shave) then someone suggested this product and it has done the trick. I trimmed it short and applied it as directed. Job done. Not only that but I've used it on the rest of my face (which often got quite red and blotchy) and it seems to have cleared that up too. It is expensive but certainly worth it because it works. I'd like to say I look ten years younger but I think my skim just looks better, and I don't feel like I have the plague under my beard, which is good enough for me.

AMAZING PRODUCT
Absolutely amazing product. Was the missing piece of the puzzle to my skincare routine. I sorted my acne out but still had lots and lots of bumps under the skin and nothing would get rid of them. This stuff completely cleared it and continues to keep my skin clear!! I cant remember the last time I wore make up which is unheard of for me!! Works really fast too. I've been using it morning and night and making sure i keep my skin hydrated. My skin is sensitive but I've had no issues with irritation. Worth all the money I'll be repurchasing !!

Great for dull, acne prone skin
Bought this as my 42 year old skin is both dull, bumpy, and very spotty, and have tried other products such as Pixi Glow Tonic and haven't been wowed by them. Read all the reviews on the Paulas Choice and decided to go for it. Great product - skin feels amazing even after only one application and has made a difference after only a few days usage on getting rid of the tiny bumps I had on my chin, as well as helping clear up larger spots. I would say to use this only once a day if your skin is quite sensitive as I think I was a bit over zealous the first 3 days, and it did dry the skin slightly around the spots, but I do think that was also a combo of using other spot treatments at the same time, and my skin drying out from going out in the cold then coming back into central heating at this time of year. Would def recommend.

It does work!!!
I bought this product 3 months ago and wanted to see if it works before I write a review. I didn't need to wait long till I saw the difference. I love this product, I can't believe that finally I found something that works. I bought so many skincare products and none of them made huge difference. My skin was good before this product but wanted a cleanser for blackheads. This one is great, evens the skin and gets rid of blackheads. I use it every night sometimes just every other night as it does dry your skin out a little. I feel confident without wearing make up! Definitely keep using it.

Amazing results
Ive suffered with cystic acne through 2 pregnancies and birth control. This product is amazing, within 48 hours the swelling and redness of my breakouts had dramatically reduced, within a week it’s all but gone minus some red marks which are easily concealable. The dry patches surrounding the acne have also gone. I’ve had to resort to prescription steroidal creams in the past which I hated using and was sceptical about the claims made, but although this isn’t cheap I think it’s more than worth the money! Only slight downside is that using it twice daily has left my skin feeling tight so I’d advise investing in a good moisturiser. But I’ll accept this for the results I’ve experienced.

No need to cover up !!
This product is amazing, having struggled with Keratosis Pilaris on my upper arms for over 20 years and covering up because of the unsightly bumps, i have my arms out for the first time in years !! So liberating and having battled for years, having tried numerous treatments it is a huge relief to finally find something that works for me. I can honestly say this is a fantastic treatment. Nice to apply, no horrid smell, absorbs well and doesn't irritate and inflame the skin like so many treatments. I have been using once a day for about 6 weeks and I can honestly say it has changed my life and will be using from now on and speading the word. I used to get arm envy, but no more ! Many thanks for a great product.

Gentle but effective
I’ve used quite a few exfoliating products over the years, but I keep coming back to this one because blackheads seem determined to make themselves at home in my pores. No matter how consistent I am with the rest of my skincare routine, they always find a way to show up, especially around my nose and chin. What I like most about this exfoliant is that it works without feeling harsh. It has a lightweight liquid texture that applies easily and absorbs quickly. Unlike physical scrubs that can leave my skin feeling irritated or over-exfoliated, this provides gentle chemical exfoliation with none of the rough scrubbing. My skin feels smoother after use, and I don’t get the tight, stripped feeling that some acne-focused products can cause. After using it regularly, I notice fewer clogged pores and a visible reduction in blackheads. My pores also look less noticeable, and my skin texture appears more even overall. It helps keep congestion under control before it turns into larger blemishes, which is a big reason why it has remained a staple in my routine. For me, this is one of those rare products that manages to be both effective and gentle at the same time. If blackheads and clogged pores are an ongoing battle, this has been one of the most reliable products I’ve found for keeping them under control while still being comfortable enough for regular use. Summary: This exfoliant has earned a permanent spot in my skincare routine. It helps reduce blackheads, keeps my pores looking clearer, and improves overall skin texture without irritating my skin. For anyone dealing with persistent pore congestion, it’s easy to see why this product has such a loyal following.

Muy buen producto
De los mejores exfoliantes que he probado. La textura es súper ligera y cuando te lo pones la piel lo absorbe rapidísimo, dejando una capa muy ligera que hace que la piel se sienta súper suave. Pero el verdadero cambio se nota después de un rato, cuando ves la piel mucho más limpia y con una textura muchísimo más bonita. De verdad me sorprendió muchísimo este producto.
