Review: Will change your skin forever - This has literally been life changing. I can’t believe the difference it’s made to my skin. I take my makeup off at night and put it on then do the same in the morning. My skin looks radiant, pores are smaller. Skin is softer. I will never use any else again
Review: Works great for Acne/reducing spots - Had a breakout in what i think were hormonal cystic spots on cheeks and nose area and needed to find a solution Pic 1 - 3-4 weeks ago after using the below methods Pic 2 - straight after applying this and cream moisturiser Pic 3 - this morning So firstly i use a combination of products and do not use this product more than on weekends I have oily skin so products which dry my skin are more preference so this may not work for other skin types. First 1-2 weeks spots got slightly worse before improvement. Morning routine 1. Cleanser - arencia green rice mochi 2. Cereve - blemish control gel 3. The ordinary niacinamide 10% + zinc 1% 4. The ordinary natural moisturiser + Ha Night routine 1. Cleanser - arencia green rice mochi 2. The ordinary salicylic acid 2% 3. Murad - deep relief blemish treatment 4. The ordinary natural moisturiser + Ha Weekends i swap out one morning or evening routine to use this product 1. Now i know salt is not great but my spots seem to be more under the skin so i raise them up using a handful of westlab epsom salts on a cloth and scrub direct on face (other method is add a cup to a bath) - whilst research says there is no medical info for epsom salts helping cystic spots on face - epsom salts are actually found as a medical recommendation for trying to get rid of gynocological cysts etc This is drying so it is likely not recommended if dry skin and i do not do more than once a week and i expect spots to look worse when they are bought to surface 2. Anua rice enzyme brightening cleansing powder - i build up like a mask then add water to scrub in and wash off with a cloth (this product can be a bit messy) 3. Paulas choice 2% bha liquid exfoliant 4. The ordinary natural moisturiser + Ha Now as i only add this into the routine twice a week i am not worried by bottle size - will likely last me another 2-3 months on the smaller one - same with the murad small bottle for price The ordinary serums and lotions are significantly cheaper and will last for another 2-3 months at least too I do not know which products are helping the most for skin but this one is definately one i will keep in my routine for weekends and see it still value for money if used with some other products.

## Features

- OUR GLOBAL BESTSELLER : Fast absorbing liquid exfoliant removes built-up dead skin cells and fights blackheads and breakouts. Daily leave-on liquid exfoliant with salicylic acid quickly unclogs pores and controls oil for clear, glowing skin
- WITH SALICYLIC ACID / BHA : Primarily an exfoliant, helping shed dead skin on the surface and inside the pore, therefore effective for reducing breakouts and blackheads. It also has soothing properties.
- BENEFITS : Skin becomes dull and congested when dead skin cells build up on its surface. Unlike harsh exfoliator scrubs, our gentle BHA mimics the natural exfoliation process of younger skin by helping to shed extra layers while unclogging and clearing out pores.
- HOW TO USE : Lightly soak a cotton pad and gently apply over the entire face and neck, including the eye area (avoid lash line and eyelids). Do not rinse. Start slowly: At first, apply every other day and note skin’s response. Then use up to twice daily. For daytime, follow with a broad-spectrum sunscreen rated SPF 30 or greater. For night time, follow with the rest of your routine.
- SUITABLE FOR COMBINATION TO OILY SKIN : This peeling is suitable for normal, combination to oily skin types. The liquid texture is ideal for these skin types and penetrates fast into pores, blackheads and pimples. This leave-on exfoliant (also sometimes known as a toner) has an optimal pH range of 3.2-3.8 for maximum effectiveness without irritation.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Should I use AHA or BHA?**
A: AHAs are generally preferred if you have normal to dry skin. BHA is the preferred option for normal to oily or combination skin that is prone to bumps & breakouts. BHA works both on the skin surface and within pores to quickly shed clogging build-up.

**Q: Can you use AHA and BHA together?**
A: Yes, you can use AHA and BHA together, but most people do just fine using one or the other. Using AHA and BHA together can provide advanced results if you’re experiencing multiple skin concerns.

**Q: Why does the 2% BHA Liquid feel sticky and kind of greasy on my face?**
A: If our 2% BHA Liquid feels sticky, you may be using too much. Try using a pearl-sized amount applied in a thin layer. The greasy feel can be attributed to the high levels of glycol in the formula.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It’s magic
*by N***K on 14 August 2026*

I’ve had oily, sebum clogged skin ever since I was a teenager and this stuff completely clears my skin and makes it look better after every use without fail. I don’t even bother with using exfoliating scrubs anymore. Wish I knew about it years ago.
