I've switched to different brands for blemish control, only to realize the true value of this product and return to it, repeating this cycle for years. Paula's Choice is the first brand that comes to mind when dealing with breakouts. When applied before makeup, it helps control excess oil, improving makeup longevity. It's even better than most primers, so I've been using it as a primer before applying foundation. You might not notice much at first, but with consistent daily use of small amounts, you'll find yourself living worry-free from blemishes. The effects appear gradually, making you forget how powerful it really is... Thanks to its BHA content, there's no need for separate exfoliation.
ConsIt can sting a bit if you have sensitive skin or active blemishes. It's not unbearably painful like some 'cursed serums', just slightly uncomfortable. While the BHA and azelaic acid definitely calm blemishes, I have thin, sensitive skin and dislike the stinging sensation, which made me want to switch products. I'm still open to trying better blemish prevention products, but nothing quite matches up to this one, so I always keep it on hand for peace of mind. The tube packaging is flimsy. It's pricey for the amount you get, so I buy it during sales.
TipUse small amounts to allow your skin to adapt. Sun protection is essential.

It absorbs nicely, and even though I have dry skin, I didn't feel much tightness after application. My blemishes have also significantly reduced!
ConsSince I have super sensitive skin, it occasionally caused a tingling sensation.
TipIt seems to improve areas with pigmentation due to acne scars when applied there.
