I have been using this for about a year now as a recommendation someone provided to me. I have been dealing for years with adult acne that I've been to dermatologists for and have been prescribed medication and the acne kept coming back. They keep saying it's my hormones, but all my blood work came back normal.I started this at first in my nightly routine just applying after cleansing and toning and and for the first 5 weeks my acne actually got way worse. I was ready to throw it away, but the person who recommended it to me said to give it up to six weeks as my skin would purge it's pores. At about the 7-8 week mark there was significant change, it was like it cleared up all the acne overnight. My pores looked smaller, I was noticing some fine lines were almost disappearing, and my skin was almost glowing again. I ran out of this and didn't re-order for a few months and the acne came right back. So here I am ordering another bottle although this time I'm using morning and night. If you have sensitive skin I'd recommend only using once per day until your skin gets used to it, but then you can gradually add in twice per day morning and night.There's no harsh smell, its a liquid exfoliant so it almost feels like you're just putting a toner on and not using scrubbing particles to exfoliate your face. I love this product.

I have been using this gentle exfoliator in the morning and in the evening, I am already seeing a slight difference in my fine lines, it has great reviews so I will continue to use it for a while.

I don't know what kind of miracle liquid this stuff is, but let me tell you, IT WORKS! I have been dealing with a patch of red bumps on my cheeks for years, been to dermatologists that say it's adult acne and to try this cream or that cleaner. The prescribed meds worked some, but never completely eliminated the redness or the bumps and that was with consistent use for weeks and months. I've been using this product for only a week and the redness and tiny bumps have almost COMPLETELY vanished as well as my complexion is so much more even and my PORES look amazing. If you're looking for a product to completely change the way you look AND feel, look no further...this is the one! You won't regret it, I promise!

it's a game changer! just don't apply it everyday or you can get chemical burns

Too new to rate

I've struggled with ingrown hairs over my body my whole life and no amount of exfoliating brushes/scrubs does the work quite like Paula's choice! I use it two or three times a week after a shower and the results have been amazing. It also helped to fade dark marks from previous ingrown hairs in about two weeks! It is an exfoliant so be cautious using on your face!

I have combination skin, adult acne and huge pores. I was very skeptical because I've tried sooo many things over the years but this is literally it. It has worked wonders

I like Paula's Choice products. They deliver on what they promise. However, you MUST be patient. I've been using the exfoliator and it's doing a good job. It does not have any scent and it does have a nice silky moisturizer in it. Just take your time using it and your skin will probably adjust easily.

I'm not sure if the can product expire before it opens , but this is not my first bottle of this magic, and I don't recall it's smelling this way the first time around... But maybe it's just been awhile because it last forever and maybe it loses the scent over time. Anyone else??

I have a lot of Skincare Products but this is one of my absolute favorites.Pros- Helps with acne-Helps Fade acne scars- Works well with other brands products- Good Price and Quality- The whole Paula choice line is great- Even works on sensitive skinCons- Can sting acne- Semi Expensive

I have been using this product for many years and the last 2 bottles had a rancid smell - not something you want to put on your face. I exchanged the first bottle thinking it had gone bad, but the replacement had the same offensive smell.

I love this product! I'm 44 and noticed my pores getting larger each year. After almost 2 weeks I see a noticeable difference in my pores size...they're so much smaller. I am using this product with the Paula's Choice Pore Reducing Toner. I will be a client for life now!

Black heads on my nose vanished after 3-4 days of use. Would need to keep using but price wise it isnt acceptable as skin feels damaged after intended use.Going to a function in 3 days, use it each day before then after that day allow your skin to heal then repeat twice a week.

I've rebought this product so many times, it's great at reducing the look of my pores. Highly recommend

Great product , helped with my sun burn and acne scars. Will keep buying for sure. Only bad this is I wish they were at least 2 oz bottles. I use everyday when I wake up and before bed after face scrub. My skin feels really great. I use it with sunscreen as the instructions recommend

IDK- Wanted very much to like this product. 2 weeks in, no difference. Pores same, if not more visible. My nose, and alongside seems more consistently oily. No difference in fine lines. I know it's only been a couple of weeks, but experienced better results within a few days with other products. Returning and going back to Bliss, Clear Genius Serum-made my skin feel amazingly soft, and shrunk my pores, in no-time. Perchance Ms. Paula is now overrated and watered down...

This stuff is amazing for acne prone skin that needs some form of regular exfoliation. Super effective on acne as well, calms the acne down and makes skin more smoother overall. If you are targeting a product that focuses on acne, I strongly suggest the paula's choice clear lotion. A dab of that does literal wonders. Love the paula's choice lines overall. The best thing for my skin, amazing.

I had bad scare on my back and shoulders due to folliculitis, and my personal were extremely big. Not only did it shrink my pores stopping excess oil and dirt from getting in, but I saw results as quick as 2 weeks and my skin was completely clear in 5 weeks. FYI the scars were only about 6 months old. Older scars might take longer

I'm not one to write a review on anything but this product has been a life changer for my skin. On my 3rd use I noticed a dramatic change. I definitely will be getting a bigger bottle and continue to recommend this the family and friends.

Great product for dissolving blackheads
