When the breakout hits, this Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Gel Exfoliant from PAULA’S CHOICE is an essential in your skin care armoury. Ideal for blemish-prone, oily or combination types, this non-abrasive formula is laced with BHA salicylic acid to remove dead skin cells both on the skin’s surface and within the pore. In tandem with its anti-inflammatory properties, this helps to reduce blemishes and blackheads for a more clarified complexion (hurrah!). Aiding salicylic acid in its blemish-clearing mission, methylpropanediol enhances absorption so you can get the most out of each and every ingredient, while simultaneously boosting hydration levels, and green tea extract delivers a hefty dose of antioxidants to soothe and protect. With a light and non-sticky gel consistency, the formula sinks easily into skin and can be quickly followed by your favourite moisturiser.
Apply once or twice daily after cleansing and toning. Apply a coin-sized amount over the entire face, including the eyes (avoid the lower lash line and eyelids). Do not rinse. For daytime, always use a moisturiser containing a broad-spectrum sunscreen rated SPF 30 or greater.

My oily combination skin loooves this!
Having oily combination skin it’s hard to find a product that actual matches my needs and keeps the oiliness regulated. So I didn’t have high expectations for this version of the trendy skin perfecting bha lotion is a gel formula - this product has decreased the size of my pores, helps A LOT with texture and dullness while hydrating my face and I noticed my skin was less oily and more on the glowy semi matte side! I use to use the lotion version which worked just as good but this one helps way more with my « oiliness »Â
Report this reviewI found this version better than the regular one.
It does the job and pores were minimized! Definitely worth your money!
Report this reviewI love this stuff
I'm on my second bottle and it's probably the most effective exfoliant I've ever used. It keeps my skin smooth and clear. It can be a little oily/tacky, though it's not a problem for me because I only use it in the evening. I also prefer this gel version to the liquid.
Report this reviewNice product
The texture is quite different from the liquid, and I think this can be more suitable for the cold months, as it leaves a hydrating feeling after the application. In the same time, it's more difficult to layer other products on it compared to the liquid. As for the results, as I am not using it constantly, I think it's better to try it yourself.
Report this reviewFantastic product
Love this product for good exfoliant. Not too harsh and great for combination to oily skin.
Report this reviewSmells terrible
Found it impossible to keep the product on my face for longer than a minute as it smelt so terrible - like incredibly strong nail varnish remover.
Report this reviewI get the hype
I get the hype with this! I was due to go on roaccutane for my acne and this has cleared my skin up more than any antibiotic has! I will still go on it but I will use this as my staple
Report this reviewPrefer the liquid version
I previously used the liquid version of this as a toner after cleansing, which I actually prefer. This gel can be quite drying, and I haven't noticed a significant improvement in my skin since using it. I have oily/combination acne-prone skin and I would advise using a heavier moisturiser when using this, and not using it every day.
