Clear Acne Face Wash with Salicylic Acid
Clear Acne Extra Strength Exfoliating Treatment 2% BHA (Salicylic Acid)

All Paula’s Choice products are 100% fragrance free, clinically proven to be non-irritating, and never tested on animals.

Works to lessen excess oil, unclog and shrink enlarged pores, and help you control stubborn acne breakouts. Unlike most anti-acne products, the Clear collection works without causing dryness or redness, or exposing skin to harsh ingredients like alcohol, menthol, and eucalyptus. It’s a customer favorite even for those with skin prone to cystic acne.

Wet face and apply a small amount of Clear Acne Pore Normalizing Cleanser to your face and eye area with vigorous, yet gentle, circular motions. Rinse well.

Apply Exfoliating Solution 2% BHA (Salicylic Acid) once or twice daily after cleansing. Lightly soak a cotton pad and apply over the entire face, including the eye area (avoid the lower lash line and eyelids). Do not rinse. If excessive dryness or peeling occurs, reduce application to once per day or once every other day.


Use Daily Skin Clearing Treatment BP as a spot treatment in the last step.
