Features

  • NON-ABRASIVE LEAVE-ON EXFOLIATOR: gently removes dull skin, naturally revealing the radiance hidden underneath. Revitalizes the skin's surface and helps keep skin hydrated by removing dead cells and preparing the skin's surface to receive moisture.
  • Paula's Choice SKIN PERFECTING 8% AHA Gel Exfoliant with Glycolic Acid, Chamomile, and Green Tea can help minimize the look of discolorations and age spots, and with consistent use can increase skin's firmness. Use after cleanser and toner twice daily.
  • With antioxidants from green tea and other natural ingredients, and the soothing power of chamomile, plus the exfoliating benefits of glycolic acid, this unique lightweight gel soothes as it revitalizes your skin leaving it soft, smooth, and radiant.
  • Using a chemical exfoliator is gentler on the delicate skin of the face & neck than an abrasive face scrub, which can cause micro-tears. An AHA face exfoliator delivers hydration and can reach the deeper, built up layers of dead skin that scrubs don't.
  • Paula's Choice Skincare makes products that work. No fragrance, no parabens, no fluff. Just effective, science-backed formulas that target any concern from wrinkles to breakouts.

    • Paulas Choice is excellent quality
Size: 3.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love this brand-everything I've used has been absolutely excellent, and if you're familiar with Paula Begoun-she knows what she's talking about and I don't believe she'd put out a crap product. I've used this on normal/combination skin. I make sure not to use it if skin is irritated, but I've used it on some atopic dermatitis with no issue. I always layer a really good moisturizer over the top. That is the key to help dry or winter skin with an AHA-always use a moisturizer (learned that from reading Paula's books and transcripts from her podcast!). AHA is also super helpful for evening tone and getting rid of hyperpigmentation or scars. It also helps with wrinkles because it gets rid of the shedded skin lying in the wrinkle and making it more obvious. ALWAYS use a sunscreen, esp. with any exfoliants!! ... show more

    • Effective Skincare Staple
Size: 0.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This gel exfoliant was initially a gift from my husband and I’ve rebought it since it has become a crucial part of my skincare routine. It effectively exfoliates, leaving my skin smoother and brighter. I must note that it does have a distinct scent that may not be to everyone's liking. Also, it's on the higher end of the price spectrum compared to other exfoliants. However, the results make it worth using, and I'm pleased with it overall. If you don't mind the distinct scent and the higher cost, I would highly recommend it. ... show more

    • Great product as usual
Size: 3.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I used this product for 3 days straight and saw amazing results . I’ll now be using it every 4 days. It feels like luxury and my skin looks like I spent $350. On a facial. Highly recommended

I’m a read head and with that, comes being prone to sunspots. This product has cleared most of my spots, not all of them, but most. I can’t imagine there to be a better priced or more a lightweight product than this.

    • Not for me
Size: 3.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’m devoted to Paula’s choice since I discovered the 2% BHA Exfoliant Liquid (the black bottle) and it quickly became a staple in my routine, so I thought I’d try this one because it’s always a good idea to alternate acids, but it seems glycolic acid in gel form is not for me. I had tried AHAs before from another brand even more expensive than Paula’s but I didn’t like it. I thought this time it was going to be different but noooo, my skin just doesn’t agree with gels. This gel makes me itchy, can’t use anything else after it, not even a light moisturizer, and it pills like crazy. I won’t blame the brand because I’ve tried AHAs in gel from other brands and “it’s me! Hi! I’m the problem it’s me!” Lol. Like I said, not for me. I’ll stick with Paula’s BHA, which is life for me. ... show more

    • Wonderful chemical exfoliator, significant changes to acne and skin texture - wonderful for Oil cleansing grit-removal process!
Size: 3.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I absolutely adore this stuff. I have had skin issues and blemishes for over a decade and my skin is finally much clearer than I ever thought possible and that is completely thanks to chemical exfoliation. If you cannot afford Paula's Choice I highly recommend CorSx or other asian beauty brands that have AHA/BHA that are cheaper This is the first AHA I tried, and it is the only AHA I use now. It prevents acne, improves my skin texture and helps me get rid of CCs Important: if you have closed comedones (those little black things in your nose that you might think are blackheads) chemical exfoliation and oil cleansing could be a miraculous thing for you (as it was for me) The strange way I oil cleanse with this product to get as many grits as possible (grits are CCs, sebum, dead skin that you can get out of your skin with oil cleansing, it is so wonderfully satisfying and fun to do this! please try this at least once to see how your skin responds, my skin looks so clear and smooth the day after it's amazing). apply Paula's Choice BHA 2% (or a similar product, stridex in the red box works as well but only in the red box and not the green because the green does not have the proper PH, if you are new to any of this I highly recommend researching online!) - wait 20 minutes for it to work apply Paula's Choice AHA 8% - wait 20 minutes (a lot of people say you don't have to wait, but I find it makes a huge difference - also you could just use one of these, but I've found that both together yield the best results.) apply your oil of choice, I use: Life-Flo Organic Pure Safflower Oil, 16 Ounce it has plenty of 'slip,' and gets me more grits than any other oil (I also mix the oil with other oils like rosehip if I feel like it) - wait five minutes (you can skip that if you're sick of waiting) now massage your face!! so much stuff will come out it's insane. after you do that for at least 5-10 minutes (be gentle! don't rub your face too harshly) - wash your face with a good cleanser (I prefer Cerave foaming cleanser because it has a low ph and it is good for acne-prone skin - also, cleansers should not make your face feel tight or 'squeaky' at all! do not strip your skin) - I also use a konjac sponge for gentle removal (I get these for 89 cents on ebay). Other people recommend putting on a mask like the aztec healing clay mask (which I don't recommend for dry skin) between oil cleansing and the chemical exfoliation for more grits, but that has not worked for me so I don't use the mask. I do this kind of reverse process (normally you apply chemical exfoliators after you cleanse) at least three times a week and my closed comedones are significantly diminished if not entirely gone! (they refill themselves if you stop, there's no permanent way to remove them so this is the best method I've found for emptying them). If you have acne, if you have skin-texture issues, if you want clearer, healthier skin - this product is a must for you! Chemical exfoliation is much gentler than physical exfoliation and much more effective in my experience. This is a holy grail product for me and I urge you to try it out! (IMPORTANT NOTE: if you are new to chemical exfoliants please work up to using it multiple times a week! don't stress your skin out by using it constantly and only use it once a day. Make sure to use plenty of sunscreen with an AHA because it will make your skin more photosensitive!) ... show more

I REALLY LOVE PAULA’s Choice PRODUCTS! BUT when the volume of product drops below an ounce it begins to annoy me a bit. Product worked great. But much like the $62 Retinol Solution from Paula’s Choice… go ahead and charge me $80 or $95 and add more product, PLEASE!
