This is my number one exfoliant, a very gentle one and it really makes your skin smooth and keeps your pores clean.

At first I thought this was a great product: it made my blackheads much easier to remove and it didn't seem to irritate my sensitive skin. Unfortunately, over the last 9 months every time I use it...

I love this 1% BHA lotion. The texture is much nicer than the gel, which was sticky and sometimes made my skin feel dry. The lotion absorbs well and leaves my skin matte, and it smooths my skin...

At first, I loved this product. Seemed like a light moisturizer but with everyday use, it made my skin too dry.
