KEY INGREDIENTS SALICYLIC ACID/BHA Salicylic Acid/BHA Primarily an exfoliant, helps to shed dead skin on the surface and inside the pore, therefore effective for reducing breakouts and blackheads. It also has soothing properties. GREEN TEA EXTRACT Green Tea Extract Possesses potent antioxidant and skin-soothing properties and has impressive research in terms of its many benefits for skin, including anti-ageing properties. METHYLPROPANEDIOL Methylpropanediol Can enhance the absorption of ingredients such as salicylic acid. It also has hydrating properties that can leave a smooth, dewy finish on skin. THE FULL INGREDIENT LIST: Ingredients: Aqua, Methylpropanediol (hydration), Butylene Glycol (hydration), Salicylic Acid (Beta Hydroxy Acid, exfoliant), Polysorbate 20 (stabilizer), Camellia Oleifera (Green Tea) Leaf Extract (skin calming/antioxidant), Sodium Hydroxide (pH balancer), Tetrasodium EDTA (stabilizer), Phenoxyethanol (preservative). HOW TO USE STEP 3 EXFOLIANTS 2% BHA LIQUID EXFOLIANT How to use an exfoliant Lightly soak a cotton pad and gently apply over the entire face and neck, including the eye area (avoid lash line and eyelids). Do not rinse. At first, apply every other day and note skin’s response. Then use up to twice daily. For daytime, follow with a broad-spectrum sunscreen rated SPF 30 or greater. Start slowly: Apply every other day and note skin's response. Then use up to twice daily. For daytime, always finish with a sunscreen rated SPF 30 or above. For nighttime, follow with the rest of your routine. Full routine Here's a step-by-step of your morning & evening skincare application. Step 1: Cleanser Wet your face and apply a small amount with gentle, circular motions. Rinse well. To remove heavy makeup, repeat or use with a clean, wet washcloth. Step 2: Toner With your fingertips or a cotton pad, gently apply over the face and neck. Do not rinse. Step 3 Exfoliants Gently apply with your fingertips or a cotton pad over the face and neck, including the eye area (avoid lash line and eyelids). Do not rinse. Start slowly: Apply every other day and note your skin's response. Then use up to twice daily. Step 4 Treatments Dispense a pearl-sized amount to your hand and apply once or twice daily to the face, neck and eye area. Step 5 Moisturisers Use a day moisturiser as the last step in your morning skincare routine and apply liberally at least 15 minutes before stepping into sun exposure. As always, it's best to reapply every two hours once the skin has been exposed to direct sunlight. For a night moisturiser, apply a small amount once or twice daily to the face and neck.

I cannot describe how this has changed my skin. I used to always break out on my cheeks (the fleshy part) and on my chin; I gave up trying to treat them and came to a point where I just accepted that it was hormonal; I began using strong concealers to cove...r up my acne. This really bothered me because I have very good skin, I just always had 1 or 2 spots on each cheek and lots of spots right UNDER my chin which, thank goodness, couldn't be seen but which I knew about. Anyway... I discovered that the cheek spots were from bacteria and my chin spots were a result of plucking at my chin hair with metal tweezers. Paula's Choice liquid exfoliant has treated BOTH and I have had no spots whatsoever for the last 4 months. None. At the same time, it has really evened out my skin tone and my acne scaring (which wasn't too bad on my cheeks as I always got spots on the same place but was it quite bad on my chin). They have really faded away. I also get redness where my acne scars are, which is very noticeable after a shower, but as soon as I put Paula's Choice on, after about 5-10 minutes, the redness completely dies down. I think this might be down to the pearly sheen it leaves behind; I think it helps the light reflect off the skin which gives the illusion of a cooler skin tone, I really don't know but whatever it is, I am not complaining because it is better than having to put make up on. I have stopped using foundation thanks to Paula's Choice; I just don't need it anymore. The only downside is that I already have dry skin and this makes it VERY dry because obviously it's an exfoliant so what it does is, it dries out all the bacteria, pus and blackheads then all you see is your skin flaking off and all the dirt coming to the surface. I like to cleanse it away with Micellar water but I don't force the little flakes off and let it fall by itself because trust me, you don't want to pick at your skin when it is flaky. You will end up peeling off healthy skin which is not needed. Remember, people do not see what you see as they never really get that close to your face nor focus as much as you do. Let your skin shed off by itself. I recently bought the gel version because people said it's just as good minus the drying out. I have to disagree. Although the gel has kept the zits away, it certainly isn't as strong as the liquid because I have seen no flaking/shedding of skin. Also, it does not help reduce redness like the liquid version. Just my opinion. Oh, and I also want to mention that my friends have messaged me recently asking me what foundation I have used on my skin because it looks so good, haha! I just wish it worked the same on everyone but after reading these reviews, I have come to the conclusion that maybe it isn't for all skin types. Nevertheless, I would recommend everybody to try and to be patient because it took about a month for my skin to get used to this. The drying and tightness of my skin almost put me off but I stuck it out and it was worth it. Your skin gets used to it so it doesn't go as tight after a while and as for the dryness, I think it is just a side effect of it drying out all the bacteria so it is worth it. When you have a clean and beautifully even skin tone, you will get why I put up with it. Can't have it all but a little moisturiser (with SPF) goes a long way! Asli x Read complete review VersusVS MOST LIKED NEGATIVE REVIEW 2 I DON'T REALLY GET ALL TH… I don't really get all the fuss - this hasn't done anything for my skin, but does cause a hassle fitting it in to my routine. Been using this for a full month, just mornings for the first week (v mild reaction which settled quickly) then morning and evening - it is thick and oily (which I personally... quite like) so you have to go and do something else for 15 mins or so while it dries/sinks in - this is a pain! It makes my skin look temporarily tighter for a few hours, but heck does it dry it out in order to do that - I have to use a lot of moisturiser when using this, or my skin is dried out and crinkly by lunchtime. I've seen no change in my congested chin, nose and other areas of blocked pores. Disappointed - folks do love to talk of miracles and magic here, and I've had congested skin for a long time - I really fell for it but sadly no 'miracle' results for me. Customer Care: Hi B! I'm sorry to hear that this product was not a good fit for your skin. We understand that everyone's skin is different and what works beautifully for some may not work well for others. This Liquid Exfoliant is suitable for combination to oily skin. If you have normal or dry skin you may find that this particular product is not hydrating enough for you. A great alternative would be our Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Lotion Exfoliant which works to soften and hydrate the skin as well as exfoliate and unclog congested pores. If you find that you have to wait 15 minutes for the product to absorb into your skin it's possible that you're applying too much. This exfoliant is lightweight and you don't need to wait for it to dry before continuing with the rest of your routine. Please don't hesitate to reach out to our Skin Care Experts to see if you're eligible for a refund as per our 60 day return policy.

Ask a Question FAQ Most asked GOOD TO KNOW BEFORE YOU START USING YOUR EXFOLIANT. It is best to gradually build up use of a BHA product. Start by using your exfoliant once every other day and then increase usage to once or twice daily based on your skin’s response. You need to experiment a bit to see what suits your skin best. During the day, always use a moisturiser with a broad-spectrum sunscreen rated SPF 30 or greater. Your skin will in fact be slightly more sensitive to sunlight when using an exfoliant, so the chance of sunburn and sun damage is slightly higher. WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE 2% BHA LIQUID AND THE 2% BHA GEL? First, texture: One is a fluid with a toner-like consistency, the other is a thicker, clear gel. Both contain the same amount of salicylic acid, though the 2% BHA Liquid contains an ingredient that allows the salicylic acid to penetrate faster and further. With the 2% BHA Gel formula, you're getting a slower release of salicylic acid. Both are great options for treating acne, blackheads, and signs of ageing. Both are suitable for all skin types but best for normal to oily or combination skin. THE SKIN PERFECTING 2% BHA LIQUID EXFOLIANT FEELS A BIT STICKY/GREASY ON MY FACE. WHY IS THAT? If the BHA is feeling sticky, you are probably using too much product. The average amount needed is the size of a small coin, and it’s best to apply it in a thin layer. The ‘greasy’ feel can be attributed to the high levels of glycol in this product (glycol helps the BHA penetrate the surface layers of skin and also works as a water-binding agent). If you live in a humid, moist climate, this effect will be more pronounced and, if too much product is used, can create a ‘greasy’ feel on the skin. AT WHAT POINT AFTER MY LASER AND/OR PEEL PROCEDURE CAN I BEGIN USING MY BHA EXFOLIANT AGAIN? First, we urge you to follow the post-procedure instructions your doctor or nurse provided. Otherwise, our general advice is to begin using your BHA again as soon as possible. Or, if your skin seems extra-sensitive, you may want to wait and apply the BHA exfoliant a few days post-procedure. Salicylic acid is an excellent anti-inflammatory ingredient that can enhance the skin's natural healing process as it works to reduce post-procedure redness. IS THERE ANOTHER PAULA'S CHOICE PRODUCT WHICH IS SIMILAR TO THE SKIN PERFECTING 2% BHA LIQUID EXFOLIANT?
