Okay, so a disclaimer. I refused to buy a whole bottle of this stuff, so I've been ordering 2-3 little sample tubes every few weeks and using as sparingly as possible. Yep, I'm cheap and I'm not...

I have sebaceous hyperplasia on my forehead (those nasty, persistent acne-like bumps) and nothing would get rid of them. Scrubs, regular acne products, nothing. I ordered a sample of this and...

I've repurchased the 2% BHA liquid several times and can't be without that item. It calms my face down and produces an even skin tone, makes my pores disappear and reduces the time pimples last. ...

I would have given this product four stars, but I deducted a star for the un-Paula-like overhyping of this product. My skin problems are not horrible but they are incredibly recalcitrant--no...
