Paulas Choice SKIN PERFECTING 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant"

After cleansing, apply a small amount using your hands or a cotton pad and leave it on the skin before continuing with the rest of your routine. Start with lower frequency if your skin is new to leave-on acids.

Use sunscreen during the day and avoid over-layering with too many other strong exfoliating products.

This exfoliant is especially useful for customers dealing with blackheads, congested texture, or pores that look enlarged and heavy with buildup. It stands out because it gives a more treatment-oriented result while still fitting into a straightforward daily routine.

As with most leave-on acids, overuse can create more dryness or sensitivity than needed, so a gradual start is often the smarter route. A balanced moisturizer and consistent daytime sunscreen usually make the routine more comfortable and sustainable.
