SKIN PERFECTING 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant - Face Exfoliating Peeling Fights Blackheads & Enlarged Pores - for a Healthy Glow - with Salicylic Acid - Combination & Oily Skin - 118 ml

I’ve been using Paula’s Choice SKIN PERFECTING 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant for several weeks, and I’m very impressed with the results. The product is lightweight, easy to apply, and absorbs quickly into the skin without feeling greasy or sticky. I noticed a significant improvement in the appearance of my pores and overall skin texture.

The Paula’s Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant is one of those rare skincare products that genuinely lives up to the hype, especially if you manage to get it at the reduced price which I did! The lightweight, almost water-like formula absorbs quickly and uses salicylic acid to penetrate deep into pores, helping to clear blackheads, reduce congestion, and visibly refine enlarged pores. Within just a few uses, my skin felt smoother and looked clearer, and with continued use I noticed a healthier, more even glow. It’s gentle enough to use regularly without harsh scrubbing, though there can be a slight tingle at first, so it’s best to introduce it gradually and always wear SPF during the day. Overall, it’s a highly effective exfoliant, especially for combination to oily skin, and a great addition to any routine looking to improve texture and clarity.

I have post-menopausal skin, which, disappointingly, is still prone to breakouts, although not often. It prompted me to search out something that could help improve my skin’s texture, as well as deal with age-related hyperpigmentation and the occasional breakouts – a few big asks. I came across two Paula’s Choice products (the skin perfecting 2% liquid exfoliant, and the 10% azelaic acid booster) which had good reviews – I read many – and plenty of before/after evidence. I know you generally need to use products regularly before you can expect to see a visible difference but I’m already seeing a result after only a few days. You use both products on cleansed skin (I’ve been using Eucerin’s dermo-purifier oil control triple effect cleansing gel, which contains salicylic acid, it’s available from Boots). Consistency is key here and I’ve been using these two products morning and night. My skin is a lot smoother and is already visibly clearer, with the latest breakout is fading. I’m excited about how it will improve my skin longer term when used regularly. As I get older, I realise I’m going to have to take better care of my skin, and in a different way to when I was in my 20s. You can feel your skin tingling when the booster serum is applied, so if you have sensitive skin, maybe use less and be cautious until you see how it affects you personally. I’m really glad I found these products and will definitely continue to use them. Four stars only because it will prove quite expensive to use them all the time.

Had a breakout in what i think were hormonal cystic spots on cheeks and nose area and needed to find a solution Pic 1 - 3-4 weeks ago after using the below methods Pic 2 - straight after applying this and cream moisturiser Pic 3 - this morning So firstly i use a combination of products and do not use this product more than on weekends I have oily skin so products which dry my skin are more preference so this may not work for other skin types. First 1-2 weeks spots got slightly worse before improvement. Morning routine 1. Cleanser - arencia green rice mochi 2. Cereve - blemish control gel 3. The ordinary niacinamide 10% + zinc 1% 4. The ordinary natural moisturiser + Ha Night routine 1. Cleanser - arencia green rice mochi 2. The ordinary salicylic acid 2% 3. Murad - deep relief blemish treatment 4. The ordinary natural moisturiser + Ha Weekends i swap out one morning or evening routine to use this product 1. Now i know salt is not great but my spots seem to be more under the skin so i raise them up using a handful of westlab epsom salts on a cloth and scrub direct on face (other method is add a cup to a bath) - whilst research says there is no medical info for epsom salts helping cystic spots on face - epsom salts are actually found as a medical recommendation for trying to get rid of gynocological cysts etc This is drying so it is likely not recommended if dry skin and i do not do more than once a week and i expect spots to look worse when they are bought to surface 2. Anua rice enzyme brightening cleansing powder - i build up like a mask then add water to scrub in and wash off with a cloth (this product can be a bit messy) 3. Paulas choice 2% bha liquid exfoliant 4. The ordinary natural moisturiser + Ha Now as i only add this into the routine twice a week i am not worried by bottle size - will likely last me another 2-3 months on the smaller one - same with the murad small bottle for price The ordinary serums and lotions are significantly cheaper and will last for another 2-3 months at least too I do not know which products are helping the most for skin but this one is definately one i will keep in my routine for weekends and see it still value for money if used with some other products.

I’ve been using Paula’s Choice SKIN PERFECTING 2% BHA for a few weeks and it’s honestly one of the best exfoliants I’ve tried. It helped reduce blackheads, smooth my skin texture, and made my pores look smaller without being too harsh. The formula feels lightweight and absorbs quickly, though I’d recommend starting slowly if you have sensitive skin. Definitely worth the hype and a great addition to any skincare routine.

To soon to say anything , will update later

Wow - I don’t normally really buy in to things but thought I’d give this a go for my tween and oh my goodness - it’s fantastic - within 2 weeks our pores are visibly reduced by a considerable amount. My nose has had large pores since I was a teenager (now in my 30s) and this has done a better job than all the facials I been for and all the products I’ve used. Genuinely so impressed. The bottle is small but you need so little of the product it’s lasting ages! (We are only using it on ‘problem’ areas.) Will absolutely buy again and absolutely recommend

So gentle and really effective. I have rosacea and this did not flare my skin at all . I have an oily T zone so it helps with this . I love it and recommend .

Es un buen producto para el cuidado de la piel. Tuve piel acnéica durante muchos años, y con muchas rojeces, tipo rosácea y muy reactiva a muchos productos. Encontrar productos para la piel que me no me irriten es muy complicado. Por recomendación de mi esteticista lo uso todas las noches, desde hace tres semanas, alternando el ácido salicílico con el acido azelaico de otra marca, nunca aplico los dos a la vez, podria ser demasiado agresivo para mi piel. El acido azelaico tiene un efecto similar, pero esta más indicado para pieles con rosacea, disminuye la inflación y las rojeces, aparte de limpiar un poco los poros. Los introduje en mi rutina nocturna de forma progresiva. Estoy notando una piel más lisa y luminosa, los poros menos obstruidas. Y mis cremas hidratantes están penetrando mejor. Realmente noto que me funciona. Varias personas me han comentado que se me ve un piel más radiante y mejorada. No sé me ha irritado nada la piel. Si bien es cierto que la reseca un poco, he tenido que cambiar mi crema hidratante ligera, por una más potente, con cerámicas, para preservar mi barrera cutánea durante este proceso de peeling. Además, es imprescindible usar factor de protección solar 50 todos los días al salir de casa mientras hago este tratamiento, la piel se vuelve más sensible a los rayos solares, esto es un peligro químico, y podria dañarse con facilidad sin estas precauciones. Sólo la uso en las zonas que lo necesito,en mi caso la zona T y la barbilla, para evitar malgastar producto, y secar zonas que no lo necesitan. Una vez dejas el tratamiento la piel vuelve a ser menos seca, a su estado natural. No me parece caro, se usa una cantidad de producto muy pequeña si además lo aplicas solo en las zonas que lo requieren.

Works well with my acne prone skin!

I didn’t try it yet this rating is for the size of the bottle compared to the price i paid! I usually get this 30 ml as gifts from beauty shops, I didn’t notice the ml when i decided to buy it and didn’t even think that it would be a sample size with this price

Veramente un ottimo prodotto. Migliora l’aspetto della pelle, riduce i punti neri. Lo uso una volta al giorno. Non mi ha dato problemi di nessun tipo. Il costo è un po’ elevato ma ne bastano veramente poche gocce.

Excellent produit exfoliant à base de BHA à 2 %, particulièrement efficace pour désobstruer les pores et améliorer le grain de peau. Après quelques semaines d’utilisation régulière, la peau est visiblement plus lisse, les points noirs sont réduits et le teint paraît plus uniforme. La texture liquide est légère, pénètre rapidement et ne laisse pas de film gras. Le produit est bien formulé, sans parfum agressif, ce qui le rend adapté même aux peaux sensibles, à condition de l’introduire progressivement dans la routine. Un soin incontournable pour les peaux mixtes à grasses ou sujettes aux imperfections, avec des résultats visibles et durables lorsqu’il est utilisé correctement.
