The first night I used Paula’s choice exfoliant just once, it cleaned up my skin scraping it whole, I was left GLOWING but it felt kind of tight like I had been using corsx salicylic acid for 3 days straight, it takes some getting used to, to the extent that the instructions literally say to start off once a week and slowly build your usage up overtime, it’s really strong but does the job well.

Blackheads? Gone. Dry flakes? Gone. Nose? Smooth. Clogged pores who? My skin tends to be sensitive at times but it could easily handle this product.

Man I love this Anua oil cleanser, it literally pulls out the gunk of sebaceous filaments, bacteria and dead skin cells from my face when I rub it in for 10 minutes. DO NOT EVER USE THIS AND NOT FOLLOW UP WITH A WATER CLEANSER AFTERWARDS. People always complain this makes them break out but are not double cleansing however I do naturally have oily skin so it’s a match made in heaven but just be Show more
I want to like this because I love the toner but it’s just too harsh on my skin (sensative + excema) it was pulling out lots but not the filaments on my nose, and I’m now trying to recover from a very upset and bumpy face. Just not for me
