The unique, high-concentration of 4% BHA goes deep to exfoliate skin quickly so problematic pores, bumps, and uneven skin texture are improved in half the time. The time-released formula delivers dramatic results, while antioxidants revive skin’s firm appearance for a more youthful look—all with a luxe serum-gel texture that glides over skin for a soothing finish.
This exfoliant has an optimal pH range of 3.5–4.0.

All Paula’s Choice products are 100% fragrance free, clinically proven to be non-irritating, and never tested on animals.

Skin becomes dull, dry and congested when dead skin cells build up on its surface. BHA (beta hydroxy acid) mimics the natural exfoliation process of younger skin by helping it shed extra layers while unclogging and clearing pores. Antioxidants step in to further reduce visible signs of aging.

Use after cleansing and toning, daily or weekly. Dispense one pump and smooth over face, neck and chest. Do not rinse. Follow with the rest of your evening skincare routine.

Reviews Summary
Customers say this treatment leaves their skin feeling cleansed, smooth, and brighter. Many appreciate the gel texture, which absorbs quickly without feeling heavy or sticky. Frequently mentioned benefits include reduced blackheads, minimized pores, and improved skin texture. Users report it works well for breakouts and congestion, with some noting visible results after just one application. The dropper packaging is convenient for most, though a few find it difficult to dispense. Common feedback notes this is stronger than the 2% version, with some using it weekly rather than daily to avoid over-exfoliation. Reviewers with oily and acne-prone skin particularly praise its effectiveness.

    Reduce facial bumps

    Just started on my 2nd btl, i mixed a few drops with a mosituriser. With patience and consistence, I see visible improvement on the tiny facial bumps/clogs. Nice texture and good easy to use dropper system.
