"This one's their 2% BHA liquid exfoliant. It just uses 2% salicylic acid and it's a liquid toner. You can apply it with a cotton pad or you can just pat it on the skin. This would be great for people who have acne prone skin, oily skin. Salicylic acid is a great ingredient for that. The bottle looks tiny but it lasts forever, especially when I just use it on areas of clogged pores."

"A bottle like this will last you six, five, six months if you use it at night, so a little bit goes a long way. You can put it on a cotton pad if you want, but if you just pat it on the skin like you would a serum, you still get the good benefits. There's a lot of dupes and alternatives to it, however this one in my opinion is still relevant and still works well for a lot of people. It's not crazy price, it's expensive but it does last a long time."

"The approach to blackheads should stick to evidence-based logical ingredients like retinoids, salicylic acid."
All 5 takes from Dr Dray
"It has licorice root which is anti-inflammatory, good for redness and hyperpigmentation, and it has salicylic acid to help exfoliate the pores and give a little bit of acne control. It's a very good product. The 2% BHA liquid exfoliant is really popular for a reason, it's a really good salicylic acid treatment."
"The 2% BHA liquid exfoliant is salicylic acid, which is great for blackheads and whiteheads and cutting down on acne breakouts. By itself it doesn't really hold a lot of power in terms of an acne treatment, but it does play a supporting role, especially in targeting blackhead and whitehead formation and smoothing the skin surface. But it's also underrated for dry, rough, and bumpy skin conditions like keratosis pilaris. The anti-inflammatory and exfoliating properties make it useful for helping to clear up and even prevent dark spots, especially on acne-prone skin that tends to heal with discoloration."
"The approach to blackheads should stick to evidence-based logical ingredients like retinoids, salicylic acid."
"Salicylic acid, which is BHA right in that toner, is actually a great scalp ingredient. It loves the oily surfaces. It's actually approved for dandruff. It can help exfoliate away flakes and it's anti-inflammatory. It's also good for seborrheic dermatitis, which is basically dandruff on the face."
"The 2% BHA liquid exfoliant is popular and worth the hype in my opinion. It's a salicylic acid leave-on product really helpful if you have a tendency towards comedones, whiteheads, or blackheads, you have acne. It's also a helpful ingredient for improving sunspots, age spots, hyperpigmentation, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. It's a really good product, definitely worth the hype in my opinion."

"This is the Polish Choice. It's a 2% BHA liquid exfoliant. Great for acne. But again, when we're treating acne, we're treating aging. It's a good kind of stress, meaning anything that is irritating your body that is causing a biological response. Whether it's a chemical peel, whether it's a retinoid, um whether it's micro needling, it's causing a chemical response in your body that is making it better. And it's affordable. This one is not expensive."

"I like to use a BHA liquid. For years I was using the Polish Choice 2% BHA. Salicylic acid goes deep into the pore, it can clear out some of the gunk, dirt, oil, so on and so forth that can cause acne, but it's also good for clearing out ingrown hair."

"This exfoliant contains 2% salicylic acid, which is the BHA component. Salicylic acid is a chemical exfoliant that has oil gland loving property, so it's lipophilic and really loves the sebum, which is why it's more ideal for individuals that are more oily and acne prone, helping to unclog pores, improving skin turnover, helping to improve pore congestion, and thereby over time improve the appearance of dilated pores, blackheads, whiteheads, as well as post acne marks. Because it's a chemical exfoliant, it also can improve dullness, uneven skin texture and skin tone, and thereby reduce some of the sun damage appearance and offer some anti-aging benefits. This product also contains green tea, which is a great anti-inflammatory antioxidant, so great for acne prone skin as well as aging skin because it can really help in both areas. I just love the liquid texture because it's really lightweight. You can apply it with a cotton pad on your skin or put it all over your face after cleansing, or if you pour it on your fingers you can apply all over your face. One of my personal tricks is I actually just like to spot treat areas that I need to, so the T-Zone area."

"This is really nice to use and it's just great all around. It's lightweight, not sticky, and definitely something worth trying out if you have more oily and acne-prone skin. If you're looking to improve acne, poor congestion, post-acne marks, I recommend incorporating it into your routine a few times a week at most. You really want to start off slow and gradually increase, and many of us do not need to exfoliate on a daily basis."

"I've been really liking this. It's a Holy Grail 2% Liquid BHA exfoliant, great for use on the nights that you're not using your retinoid. It smells really good, but if you're allergic to fragrance and you don't prefer it then you might not want to use this product."

"Polish Choice 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant is a holy grail for a reason. With salicylic acid, this is really great to use once or twice a week instead of your retinoid as a powerful exfoliant. Also because it's lipid soluble, it can really go in and clean out all that gunk from your pores."

"This is the Polish Choice two percent BHA liquid exfoliant. To see this on the list was like okay yes because we know the girlies love this. TikTok got a hold of this a couple years ago and I feel like everyone has tried it and if you haven't yet I'm sure you've heard of it at least. This is really good. Like this used to be one of my favorite exfoliants, it's still so good. I just like you know try so many new skincare things that it's not currently in my routine but it's a really nice product."
