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.

really wanted to like this product as it gave my skin a plumping effect after application, but this unfortunately broke me out in tiny whiteheads. feels a little tacky if layered on more than once, and can feel drying if not applied to very damp skin. stopped using after 2 weeks and my whiteheads cleared up.
