All Skin Types, Including Sensitive.

Paula's Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant is a leave-on liquid exfoliant formulated with 2% salicylic acid in a 4 fl oz bottle. Unlike AHAs, salicylic acid is oil-soluble, allowing it to penetrate into the pore lining to target blackheads, clogged pores, and uneven texture.

Key Ingredients
  • 2% salicylic acid (BHA) to exfoliate the skin's surface and inside the pore
  • Green tea leaf extract, an antioxidant that helps calm redness and support the skin barrier
  • Methylpropanediol to help maintain hydration and skin glow
  • Alcohol-free, fragrance-free, oil-free formula
Key Benefits
  • Helps unclog pores and reduce the appearance of blackheads
  • Supports smoother texture and more even-looking skin tone with regular use
  • Helps control excess oil without over-drying skin
How To Use

Formulated for oily, combination, or acne-prone skin dealing with clogged pores, blackheads, or rough texture. Because it's fragrance-free and alcohol-free, it's also an option for those with sensitized skin who still want a BHA exfoliant.
