LOVE the acne products with the 2% BHA! I have had acne all of my 40 years and have tried EVERYTHING including Accutane. Nothing has worked as quickly or given me the results your products have in such a short time. My face is clear AND soft, not dry, tight, and red. I am so pleased!

Thank you so much for providing the 2% beta hydroxy acid in a gel form, I love it!!! Your products continue to win me over, step by step, they are just so superior! Thank you again!
—Shera Y.
I use your 2% Beta Hydroxy Acid Gel and all your other blemish control products. Plus I ordered your Lipstick in Sheer Formula SPF 15. I love everything! I feel confident purchasing from Paula's Choice that I will get the best products available. Thank you for having your own line!
—Annette D.
Thank you Paula. For the first time in my life I have soft feeling, blemish free skin. I use the Skin Balancing Cleanser, Skin Balancing Toner, 2% Beta Hydroxy Acid Gel, and the Skin Balancing Moisture Gel. This is the first time in my life that I have ever used a moisturizer on a daily basis and without fearing breakouts. Thanks for the beautiful new skin and the confidence boost.
—Susan S.
I have struggled w/acne since I was in 6th grade. I started seeing a dermatologist at age 11! I have tried Purpose soap, clindamycin, Cleocin, Benzoyl Peroxide, Retin A, tetracycline, minocyclin, doxacylin, minocyn, and more. I was on Accutane 3 times (yes THREE times!!!) and it worked every time, but my acne always ended up coming back. The 2% Beta Hydroxy Gel is the only thing that has worked & keeps my skin CLEAR. I use the Skin Balancing cleanser, toner, & oil free moisturizer & the Blemish Control lotion as well & my skin has NEVER LOOKED BETTER! It literally GLOWS! THANK YOU!!
—Michele S.
Your products have made a tremendous difference in my life! I am 56 and have had acne since I was 13. I read your book and immediately bought the 2% Beta Hydroxy Acid Gel and 5% Benzoyl Peroxide. I follow your plan of combining those two with alternating applications of BHA and Retin-A (which I love because I've never developed a single wrinkle!). I have had no new breakouts, my skin looks clear and CLEAN (no blackheads). I also use your Skin Balancing Moisture Gel around my eyes. I cannot thank you enough for your efforts to help break the myths that advertising throws in our face (literally!).
—Susan R.
I'm 58, and have been using Paula's 2% BHA gel and 8% AHA liquid faithfully for about 6 months (AHA at night, BHA during the day), and I suddenly realized how much smoother and clearer my skin has become. AND, when I had a facial at Red Door Spa yesterday, the esthetician said there was nothing she could recommend that I change about my skin care routine, and asked what I use!
—Cindy
I have been struggling with acne around my chin since going off the pill. This product, along with benzoyl peroxide really helped and the rest of my face looks silky and smooth. This is a great product and I can't wait to try the rest of your line. Thanks!
—Jennifer
