A great exfoliator!
Over the past month or so my skin has been breaking out more than usual. After consistently using this product for the past few weeks my skin has cleared up a lot! It's very gentle and absorbs into the skin nicely. Will definitely be repurchasing!

AHA for beginners
As someone who previously had sensitive skin I've been hesitant to incorporate any chemical exfoliants into my routine but I'm so glad I tried this one! I've been using it every other day and have found that it's super gentle, soaks into the skin like a dream and gives the skin a lovely glow! Will definitely continue to use this!

The product I've been waiting for
I was so excited to hear about this launch - being what feels like the only person who can't use BHA i've had to watch from the sidelines while others raved about their amazing results using Paula's iconic BHA. The gentler exfoliation offered by AHA's in this formulation is perfect for more sensitive skin. I've been using every other day and haven't experienced any redness or irritation - just soft, glowy skin. Bring on the long term results

A dream irl
I am already a huge fan of the OG BHA, which I use every other day in my night-time routine so when I saw this I knew I wanted to try this. AHA works on the surface level of the skin, and slowly but surely I do plan on using these together. I find this works on my targeted concerns (post-blemish marks, uneven skin tone, and overall smoothness of the skin). Really recommend this if you already use AHA.

Gentle but effective!
I've started incorporating this exfoliator into my routine and am happy with the results so far! It's gentle, but it's slowly beginning to improve the texture of my skin. Will definitely be keeping this in my routine!

Lightweight gentle exfoliator
I want to love chemical exfoliation, however it doesn't love me! I have deeply dehydrated, red, sensitive skin and have find exfoliating really hit and miss. Not with this! its super gentle and sinks in beautifully. I've added it into my weekly routine and loving it.

Can’t live without!
I’m usually a bit wary of AHA/BHA’s, but as a huge fan of the brands BHA I was eager to introduce this to my routine. I switch between the two and can already see my complexion becoming smoother and softer! I’m so impressed, I can’t wait to continue using!!

Gentle but effective!
Like everyone else, I'm a big fan of the BHA toner so I was super excited to get my hands (and face) on this newbie! It's packed with hardworking acids, but has so far proven really gentle on my skin and has left me with a smoother, glowier complexion.

Smaller than I thought
I thought it would be the same size as the black one but it is a lot smaller. I will use this one day and the black one another day. Hopefully, it will help shift my sebascious filaments

Another winner from Paula's Choice
I was so excited to try this as of course love the iconic BHA! I have been using this alongside the BHA, alternating between the two each night for multi-level exfoliation of the skin. My skin has honestly not looked this smooth and clear in a while, I noticed an instant change as well! The new AHA is great at getting rid of those little bumps on top layer of the skin which I actually suffer with more than major breakouts and clogged pores. This is definitely more gentle as well so would be great for those with drier or more sensitive skin. LOVE that this helps to even reverse effects of a damaged skin barrier so great for those 'scared' of acids or over exfoliating. Super intrigued to see long term what this can do in terms of reducing redness and evening tone, definitely recommend!
