Neutrogena - ParisJ review for Skin Balancing Gel Cleanser (2% Polyhydroxy Acid)

As someone with sensitive skin, I always dreaded my weekly exfoliation but knew it was necessary because my skin is also oily. At some point I just skipped the step altogether! And trust me I've tried many different ones, both chemical and physical. The physical ones always felt too harsh and the chemical ones burned after a few minutes, then I found this cleanser! It's so gentle I can use it 2-3 times a week (at night since the PHA can make your skin more photosensitive) when I used to not be able to do that even once a week with other exfoliators! It's also nice that this is sort of a 2 in 1 that cleanses and exfoliates so if your skin is sensitive like mine, you'll appreciate having 1 less step in your routine. It also has a short and simple ingredient list that sensitive skin types like myself are always on the lookout for. The concentration of PHA is really low but still an effective amount. It lathers up very nicely with a dime sized amount, so you won't have to worry about going through the bottle quickly at all! It has a pump that locks when you turn it counterclockwise, so if you're clumsy like me you won't be accidentally pumping it everywhere as long as you remember to lock it! Tbh, I'm usually not a fan of most Neutrogena products, especially their sunscreens but this product has proved worthy! And at a low price point, I hope you will like it as much as I did. Btw the picture attached of my forehead is to show how this product helped clear up my comedones. Before incorporating this cleanser into my routine, comedones popped up pretty regularly on my forehead.
