    For the money, this product is great. I've been using the .5% for sensitive skin for about 2 weeks and have seen a very nice difference in my skin. It is clearing up (I had congestion/skin colored...

    I use these as my astringent two times a day. They smell like medicine from the doctor's, but as it dries on my face the small goes away really quickly. These are great at making my face feel...

    Why do people keep saying the alcohol in this product is strong and burning them? It's ALCOHOL-FREE, PEOPLE! Anyway, yes, it is a bit stinging/burning to my eyes, but it's not because of any...

    I just bought more of these for under $5. This is 2% BHA without any alcohol. My routine is to remove my makeup with jojoba oil and then coat my skin with Pond's Cold Cream. Leave it on and...

    Great product for oily skin with acne breakouts- particulary hormonal acne. It is a great exfolliator. Salicylic acid is great at breaking down the excessive skin. It would also be good to...

    This product has been around awhile, I'm so glad I discovered it. I found the products with alcohol really burns. These keep my complexion fresh if I use it twice a day. I do find the pads a bit...

    I really like these. I have no luck at all with BP, but salicylic acid works very very well for me. These are slightly abrasive, although the new formula seems to have a less abrasive scrubby...

    These pads work very well for acne and oily skin but they are also very abrasive. The texture of these pads combined with the 2% salicylate acid makes a very effective exfoliator but these pads...

    I have fairly light acne so I use the Stridex pads and find that they always work well! I used to have the Oxy pads but the alcohol stung my face and eyes and I'm much happier with the Stridex....

    This is way to abrasive for my sensitive skin, yet oily t-zone. Made my skin red and then broke out.

    I thought this was pretty good at first, but whatever you do, don't use the scrubber side of the pad. As soon as I used that, it caused a pretty bad breakout. It's good they removed the alcohol,...
