[@lastwaltz6]

@@aeliyafatima5431 I would recommend asking a professional but in my opinion you should pair this with Cerave salicylic acid cleanser first which has helped my blackheads a lot, use the Paula’s choice as a toner, let it sit and sink in, then apply your moisturizer. This product has worked for me but I will say I don’t find it works if I use it too often, i don’t use it everyday. if ur acne and blackheads r rly bad id recommend getting something with retinol too, i also use the cerave one 💪 however it’s pretty harsh on ur skin and does cause peeling to get rid of the blackheads and acne, so be aware of that!!

Highly recommend this to anyone dealing with acne/uneven texture/dead skin cell buildup

[@elizabeth2918]

In chem II, I learned that when mixing a strong base with a weak acid it forms a strong base still but it will fluctuate briefly (same with strong acid and weak base). So I think with both being acidic and the BHA formula being lower in pH (more acidic) it should still do its job especially if you give time for each product to get soaked into the skin before applying the next skincare product.

[@nayabghazali5455]

I have been using Paula's Choice for few weeks and layering it with acure serum which has niacinamide without any waiting. I hv been breaking out less and post acne marks appear better.

I just started using paula’s choice 2% bha liquid exfoliant and I have very oily skin. I must say, this "oil" is nothing close to the intensity of my natural oil and so far, it seems to be controlling my natural oil. The "oilyness" of this product is barely noticeable and I can't feel it on my face. I only started using it yesterday. I used it early in the day and then before bed. This morning, I woke up feeling like my face was having a good skin day which is rare for me. I normally wake up and feel like I want to wipe the oil off of my face but there was barely anything this morning. Morning: gentle oil free cleanser, BHA, oil free moisturizer (I would get a 30spf if I went outside more lol) Night: gentle cleanser, BHA, hyaluronic acid and aloe mix

[@sage2181]

I use this twice in the morning. Once before my LED mask, and once after my shower before my makeup. It allows my makeup to go on so smoothly, helps lessen the look of my pores and gives me the glow I want. I'm fifty one with not one wrinkle. (nothing wrong with wrinkles!) I still get occasional break outs but barely anymore. I think it helps my skin look fifteen year younger.

This is a 10/10 product. But if you have actual acne and only use this, you're going to breakout and wrongfully accuse this. SA is for mild acne. If you have moderate acne and higher you'll need antibacterial actives as well. If you're lucky you can get away with AHAs like mandelic acid otherwise you'll need to incorporate benzoyl peroxide some nights (not proactiv please ).

I used the bha liquid exfoliant to get rid of my acne and it only really started working when I didn't put anything on top of it.

I have super dry skin and it doesn't try out my skin to skip moisturizer a few nights a week.

[@carlonomics]

what’s the step? is it 1) cleanse 2) exfoliate 3) moisturize?

[@oooo4412]

@@carlonomics It should gently exfoliate you skin no matter how you use it, but if you want to see huge improvements in active acne try cleansing, then using the BHA serum, then skip moisturizing for the night and go to bed. Just make sure to use a good moisturizer in the morning. Another good tip is to just use the BHA on the areas you have acne and then use your normal moisturizing routine on the areas of your face that don't have acne, that way you can use the BHA as often as you need. Option 2. If you want you use a moisturizer with a BHA wait half an hour then use it. if you don't want to skip moisturizing you should 1) cleanse 2) exfoliate 3) wait half an hour then moisturize. Paula's choice use to have that instruction on their website but people got angry about it for whatever reason so they took it down.

I learned thst BHA is kind of like Drano for your pores. It’s going to unclog congested pores, so they are clear and that helps with reducing the look of enlarged pores as they can widen and appear more noticeable from being congested- large pores can be from other factors too tho, like genetics and environmental factors.. I’ve heard it’s great for those annoying sebaceous fillaments (idk how to spell that lol) often on your nose and frequently be mistaken for blackheads... I hate those! I found AHAs- glycolic acid especially, are also helpful for these, I’d use a 10% peel once a week, focusing on these problem areas but I do like it all over plus my neck and chest... it will tingle or sting a little, especially at first but it’s tolerable over time

[@xinyike4090]

@@oliverkolompar1584 Even if you have combination/oily skin, you still need to use a moisturizer because your skin still needs that hydration. If you don't use a moisturizer, your skin will then overproduce oil and cause you to become more oily in the long run. A lot of people confuse skin oil for skin hydration. The oils on your skin are called sebum and it's secreted by the sebaceous glands to maintain your skin barrier. Skin hydration is where water is absorbed into the skin to maintain its plumpness and health. So even if you have oily skin, your skin can still be dehydrated. And then your skin will start to overproduce oil, which can cause acne. Thus, it's always a good idea to moisturize, no matter if you have dry skin, combination skin, or oily skin.

Thank you for the helpful video on this product! I'm currently using the CosRX BHA Blackhead Liquid which is quite gentle for my sensitive oily/ acne-prone. I like it, but I'm interested in a stronger formulation for hot summer months 😊 I might try this next after I finish CosRX and I don't mind the hydrating feel as I use BHA exclusively at night. I have a video suggestion: winter skincare tips and recommendations.

This is really effective even after one use. I immediately felt my pores unclogging, especially my sebacious filaments on my nose area. I will definitely purge from this because I have closed comedones at the moment, but I don't mind. Hopefully it will clear up eventually!

[@shamirastibbins933]

did u purge, and did it clear up? i started using this product a couple weeks ago to help w my closed comedones and now i’m noticing so many more closed comedones on my forehead and cheeks, and some pimples popping up in the past couple days and i’m worried i’m breaking out and it’s not a purge

[@DimitrisMalisiovas]

I believe when it comes to layering, ph doesn’t really play a role in layering something after. Ph refers mostly to the solution of the product to have the instant effect/treatment when you apply it. After it dries out I believe there’s not much of an effect, so layering something more basic is not an issue.

[@topiyokii1956]

Actually no your skin needs to stay at a 5-7 PH balance for it to be healthy

I just brought mine and for people with SENSITIVE SKIN, BEWARE !! I don't get pimples often, I just brought this product in hopes that it'll fix my textured skin/ clogged pores. Last night I tried it for the first time using a tiny drop and the next morning my skin was so flakey and irritated! I went on the pc's choice website and wished I had read the negative reviews before purchasing because it was such a hyped-up product and many other customers had the same problem with their skin peeling, chemical burns, and breaking out.

[@christy8693]

@faurettes I'd say buy the travel size version first and patch test it

[@blubblub1906]

I actually had the same issue but I realised that if your skin is dehydrated and then you use it , it just irritates it so maybe your skin was dehydrated?

I have purchased this product (exfoliator), the 10% Niacinamide Booster, the Omega+ Complex Eye Cream, and the Probiotic Nutrient Moisturizer. My skin is a little on the dry side, I have some pores around my nose, chin, and cheeks. I really hated this stuff, which sucks due to the expense of these four products. The BHA leaves my skin sticky, then the Niacinamide makes it more thick and sticky, the eye cream burned my eyes (no, I did not put it in my eye), and the moisturizer just added a layer of goop. Forget putting makeup on after that! It all pills up into balls and flakes and does not allow for makeup application. Has anyone else complained about this?
