Review: Thelse products have changed my skin completely. I do not recognise the texture of my skin they are so excellent!! The only down side is I think that the desertcart markup is what pushes this product out of reach of the regular budget!!! I'm delighted and will next be purchasing the CLINICAL....meaning that there is real irrefutable proof that the skin care works. Well done Paula
Review: Love this! Works great for my skin. Leaves me feeling very fresh, my skin thanks me!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the difference between this and the paula's skin perfecting 2% bha lotion?**
A: The SKIN PERFECTING 2% BHA Liquid is a more potent exfoliant, thanks to its lower pH and the inclusion of additional absorption enhancing agents in this formula. These allow the 2% BHA Liquid to be more deeply absorbed, and to give it a slick, slippery texture. Alternatively, the RESIST Daily Pore-Refining Treatment 2% BHA has a lighter, water-like texture, and helps to gently but effectively address signs of aging in addition to unclogging pores. It contains added peptides, antioxidants, and skin-restoring ingredients to help improve skin texture and diminish the appearance of wrinkles.

**Q: Does this product contain some sort of "scrubber" that most exfoliants do or is it just a liquid?**
A: It's just a liquid and doesn't contain any "scrubber" particles.  I've been using it for over a year and I really like it.  It keeps my face smooth and seems to have cleared up my pores. My skin has never looked better and I'm 52 years old.  I would totally recommend it.

**Q: Can you use this while using retinol?**
A: Yes- it is used to exfoliate.. it’s best to use it before the retinol product.

**Q: How does this product do with acne scars and dark spots ?**
A: I use this to shrink pores on my nose.  It is a good product.

*by J***L on 18 October 2023*

This really works well. My face was breaking out and this helped me clear it up. When I first used it, my face got worse for 2 days as it seemed to be taking out the impurities in the skin and then my face pores got smaller and my skin got clearer. All of this product line is great
