Disclaimer: I’m a middle-aged guy who’s never really ever done much with facial stuff other than buying special facial soap. I barely know what I’m talking about and this is a strange new world for me.I’ve always had a problem with acne on my nose, it’s perpetually red to the point where many people ask me if I have a sunburn. That skin is oily to the point where in the evening I can “sop” it up with a tissue, and the pores have large, almost pinhead sized plugs in them. A few months ago I spontaneously decided to try to do something about it all. 20 years ago I remember getting a Biore strip sample, was looking into whether those still existed, and read that glycolic and salicylic acid might be better. The Paula’s Choice exfoliant Duo looked like it was worth a try.I first tried both on my arm, then a lower part of my neck- just to make sure they didn’t burn a hole through me or cause an adverse reaction.The 8% AHA gel (glycolic acid in white bottle), being a gel, is easy to put on with your bare hands. I wash my face and leave it on overnight. The first time I used it when I went to take a shower in the morning and touched my face I was startled because it didn’t feel like my face. Your skin feels completely replaced, I half jumped out of the shower to look in the mirror worried that something horrible may have transpired. But it was fine. I probably should have taken before and after pictures because I’m not totally sure what the visual difference is, but you can definitely feel it with your fingers. They mention discontinuing if it feels burning or uncomfortable, but I think you definitely feel something. After I shave I use an alum block, and it’s nothing like that; not stinging, but a little tingly.The 2% BHA liquid (salicylic acid in black bottle) is not a gel and benefits from an applicator of some sort- cotton balls would probably work if I had any but I ended up getting reusable LastObject cotton pads. Again, pre-wash face and then leave overnight. The pinhead sized pore plugs visibly shrank ~50% or so; you definitely still have pores but my nose looks eerily smooth and less like the surface of the moon. I definitely prefer this to that one Biore strip I tried; it’s a more subtle reduction in pore visibility as opposed to tearing the plugs out and leaving behind pore craters.They recommend using every day, but I’ve been using both once a week and been happy enough. Amongst the other things I’ve done, my skin has definitely improved. I visited my sister last week and she was annoyed that my skin looked better than hers- let’s just keep this our secret, shall we?

4.0 out of 5 stars Great product but travel size is A LOT smaller than I thought it would be

Great product but the travel size is A LOT smaller than i expected and for the price I 100% wish I got the regular sized version. Which I will be getting

5.0 out of 5 stars Feels harsh but I saw improvements fast

So this feels like you are stripping off a couple layers of skin but you get used to it as you use it. The toner is different as well and you need to use just enough otherwise it will make you sticky. However, my skin’s appearance improved by about 60% after about 9 days. My skin just became much more even and my pores appear much much smaller. The texture of my skin became completely smooth. Now, I will admit if I use my other face products for a week or so the results will fade quickly

These work great but, I would ease into them. Start once every other day and build up. I had a lot of peeling using 2 times a day right off the bat. Make sure to apply a moisturizer after

3.0 out of 5 stars Not sure it's doing anything

I alternate the two products and can't really see a difference in my skin. In fact, I think some of my dark spots are returning to their darker, natural state. I think I'll go back to the Origins Night-A-Mins when these run out. I can see a noticeable difference with that product.

5.0 out of 5 stars Noticeable pore reduction

Me encanto!!! Excelente producto … pero es muy pequeño el envase, muy poco para el precio pero mucho mucho lo que logra en tu piel. Yo no leí los ml.

Great service and delivery

The item arrived very fast. My wife is using the beauty product. I am not able to comment any further due to self preservation concerns.

I use this daily to tone and firm my skin. It is excellent for skin tone and removes all dirt on your skin without stripping natural oils
