Paula's ChoiceBOOST 10% Azelaic Acid Booster Cream Gel Face Serum with Salicylic Acid, Oil-Free Skin Brightening Serum for Face, Fragrance-Free

I'm pretty much always a skeptic when it comes to trying new skincare products but I had heard good things about Paula's Choice and decided to give this a try. I've been dealing with bumpy texture, congested pores, and cystic acne this summer (possibly due trying different facial sunscreens and/or switching from NuvaRing to an IUD) and was starting to feel distraught about the state of my skin. I added this product to my normal routine (Glossier's Milky Jelly face wash, Herbivore's Blue Wave serum, Good Light's We Come in Peace microbiome serum, acne stickers for spot treatment) and within just a few days my skin has started to look & feel so much better. My acne is clearing and the scars are healing much faster than usual. I will definitely keep using this!

I thought the price seemed high, but I’ve gotten this stuff like three times because it’s the only thing that works for rosacea on my face…and pretty much anything else weird that shows up on my face, so I just put it on every day before whatever other face cream.

I tried another product first, but it had a lousy consistency. This is basically a cream, and seems right. The tube is good about dispensing exactly the amount you want, and only three weeks in I'm already noticing results. The only negative is it doesn't say the concentration of Salicylic Acid, but I'm not going to ding it a star for that. It's apparently 0.5% per some AI source.

This has been a game-changer for my skin! I started using it to help with redness, uneven texture, and occasional breakouts, and it’s worked beautifully. My skin feels calmer, smoother, and looks brighter overall.The formula is lightweight and absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy feel. I also like that it’s fragrance-free, so it doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin. I use it a few times a week layered with my moisturizer, and I’ve noticed steady improvements without any irritation.It is a little pricey for the size, but because a small amount goes a long way, one tube lasts longer than expected. Definitely worth it if you’re dealing with redness or stubborn uneven spots!

This product has become my holy grail. Whenever I get a pimple I just apply this and it's cleared up ALOT faster than usual and the dark mark doesn't appear as dark because this helps to combat the hyper pigmentation so they have an easier time fading, I love it so much.The only con I would say is that it make the area u applied it to a little itchy.

This is TINY. Imagine a bottle smaller than your thumb. As long as you know what you’re buying, go for it

Performs great for a peeling effect to get rid of post acne hyperpigmentation marks. I just find it a bit too expensive for the quantity. Won't make tough pimples get away on its own, I use it synergistically and apply on top of a pimple some Indoxyl

First the size of it is the biggest joke for the price you pay! It made my skin dry and breakout so bad. it's been 3 weeks now that I am trying to calm my skin but still have itching and breakout. I believe its better to use these acid separately and find a better brand. Paying so much money doesn't make a product great! it's been the worst experience for my skin.
