This product is hyped up quite a bit online/social media and I can see why. It's formulated well and is super effective (at least for me) for giving me firmer, clearer skin and smaller pores. This product is a little pricier for a girl looking for budget skincare products. There are effective dupes for much cheaper but regardless, this is a quality product and the pricing is not completely unreasonable. I would definitely buy this again. I have noticed a visible difference in my skin from using this product.

This product works wonders on my skin! I am so happy I decided to bite the bullet (especially for the price) and try it. I was struggling with 1-2 cheek acne that would become super red and inflamed. I could NOT get rid of it, and it felt like it kept coming back whenever I got it calmed down. I also have super mild acne around my chin that comes around my time of the month. I was previously using the salicylic acid from the ordinary 3x/week and as spot treatment as needed, which I think was just completely drying out my skin, and causing the cheek acne (I also think stress plays a part in this too). I came across PC salicylic acid and wanted to give it a try because of the cleaner ingredients. I was a little worried though because my skin is sensitive and on the dryer side, especially during winter months. It definitely took a while for me to figure out how many times a week I should be using this, but once I figured it out, my skin loved it! My sweet spot is using this 2x/week (and as an additional spot treatment on the “off nights” if I really need it) at night after I shower, making sure my face is dry before I apply it with my fingers. Yes, the drops go a long way, so be mindful of how much you are shaking out. The texture when applying it feels like a slippery water texture, and there is a super faint smell, which I don’t mind. I have been using this product for over 5 months and my cheek acne has gone away, largely because I think I am not drying my face out like I used to, and I have been learning to manage stress. I have also noticed that from switching to PC, my scars fade faster, my face feels overall brighter, and it honestly keeps my acne away for the most part. Being honest, yes, I did break out for like 2 weeks while adjusting to this product. After that, it’s been pretty smooth sailing! Don’t be afraid to try it and make it work for you and your skin type!

Great product and you see results on your skin within 3 weeks. I highly recommend it just be aware it will dry your skin a bit if used everyday. I use every other 2 days. It does minimize pores and gives a smooth texture.

Great exfoliating toner to get rid of dead skin cells and reduce acne. Don’t use it everyday because it is powerful and will destroy the skin barrier. Bottle came in great condition with no shipping damages.

Here’s a polished 5‑star review for the Paula’s Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant: ⸻ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Five-Star Review This exfoliant truly lives up to the hype! The 2% salicylic acid formula works gently yet powerfully to unclog pores, reduce blackheads, and refine skin texture. I started seeing smoother, clearer skin in just a few days. It also minimizes pore size and gives a subtle glow without irritation. The lightweight, water‑like texture absorbs quickly (though there’s a slight sticky feel that fades) and layers beautifully under moisturizer and SPF. While some users mentioned mild dryness at first, I found that using it 2–3 times weekly and following with hydration prevents any tightness. A real skincare game‑changer that’s become a staple in my routine!

I've tried dozens of exfoliants over the years, but Paula’s Choice 2% BHA Liquid has delivered the most noticeable improvement in my skin within the shortest time. I have combination skin with enlarged pores, occasional breakouts, and rough texture around the cheeks and nose. After using this product once daily at night for 10 days, my skin looks smoother, more refined, and noticeably clearer. Key observations: Pore visibility reduced significantly around my nose and forehead by Day 5. Texture improved — small bumps and rough patches were gone within a week. Blackheads and whiteheads decreased, especially around the T-zone. No irritation — no redness or peeling despite my sensitive skin. The formula has a lightweight, watery consistency that absorbs quickly and leaves no greasy residue. It layers well under moisturizer and doesn’t interfere with my other skincare products. I followed it with a hydrating serum and cream at night. Pro tip: If you're new to BHA or chemical exfoliants, start every other day and work up to daily use. And always wear sunscreen during the day — this product makes your skin more sun-sensitive. It’s rare for me to see such a visible difference from a single product, but this one earned a permanent spot in my skincare routine. If you're dealing with clogged pores, uneven skin texture, or dullness, I highly recommend giving this a try.
