  I loved how it neatly cleaned out my pores after washing my face. It really helps essences and serums absorb better.

  Cons

  While the middle cap gives a clean impression, it was actually inconvenient to use.

  Pros

  Paula's Choice BHA Liquid was exactly what I needed, as I've always been concerned about blackhead management and dead skin cell removal. When I first used it, it applied smoothly without any stinging or irritation, making it comfortable even for my sensitive skin type. I particularly noticed its effectiveness in areas prone to excess oil and enlarged pores, like around the nose and along the jawline. When blackheads became noticeably bothersome, I'd use the BHA Liquid on a cotton pad to gently wipe or press onto my skin after cleansing. Within days, I could see the impurities in my pores gradually clearing up. The excess dead skin cells that had been building up also naturally exfoliated, resulting in a much smoother skin texture. My makeup applied more seamlessly without any patchiness. Oil production visibly decreased, allowing my skin to maintain a matte finish well into the afternoon without becoming greasy. I highly recommend Paula's Choice BHA Liquid, especially for those struggling with blackheads, clogged pores, stubborn dead skin cells, and excess oil. It effectively addresses these concerns without over-irritating the skin. With consistent use, I noticed my complexion becoming progressively clearer and more refined. However, given its powerful exfoliating properties, it's important to be mindful of overuse as it could potentially weaken the skin barrier. I'd suggest adjusting the frequency of use based on your skin's condition.

  Cons

  It might be too harsh on the skin for frequent use.

  Tip

  For effective blackhead management, try soaking a cotton pad with the product and placing it on your nose.

  Pros

  I've been using this product daily for over two years now. It's gentle enough for everyday use without any issues. It effectively cares for dead skin cells and pores without causing irritation.

  Cons

  The formula is very watery, so it tends to run off easily. You need to make sure it absorbs well. Due to its ingredients, the scent isn't particularly pleasant.

  Tip

  When using in the morning, be sure to apply sunscreen afterwards. You can use it as a mask by soaking a cotton pad, applying it to your face, and removing it within 30 seconds to 1 minute.

  Pros

  This is a holy grail for acne-prone skin. After using it, my skin feels smooth and my clogged pores get cleared out.

  Cons

  It can be irritating if used too frequently. I'd recommend using it every other day.

  Tip

  It works wonders when you feel like your pores are completely clogged!

  Pros

  - The 0.5% BHA content is great for oily, acne-prone skin and blackhead-prone pores! - It absorbs quite quickly into the skin. - When you feel a blemish coming on, apply it to the spot with a cotton pad. While not as strong as medication, it helps calm the area down fast. - This product works hard to control excess oil. Follow up with a moisturizer containing nourishing ingredients like squalane for best results.

  Cons

  - Be careful not to get it in your eyes as it can cause a burning sensation. Keep this in mind when applying.

  Tip

  For optimal effectiveness, use this product with a low pH, slightly acidic cleanser. Alternatively, if you use a mildly alkaline cleanser, follow with an acidic toner before applying this product to balance your skin's pH.

  Pros

  I was stressed about the sebum stuck in my pores even after washing my face, so I searched for BHA products. This seemed to be the most popular one, so I decided to give it a try. I can definitely say there's less sebum trapped in my pores compared to before I started using it.

  Cons

  So far, I haven't found any downsides. It even seems to exfoliate dead skin cells more gently compared to other products.

  Pros

  There's definitely a noticeable difference in sebum and oil production on days I use this. It's so effective that I even gifted it to a friend with oily skin issues. By reducing facial oil, I think consistent use could really help with blackheads and pores.

  Cons

  There's irritation...!! It stings... Is BHA supposed to be like this? The irritation is too much for me to use it daily, so I end up avoiding it. Since I haven't used it consistently, I'm not sure about its effects on blackheads and pores.
