I read the reviews on the 2% Beta Hydroxy Liquid and I have to say I a bit skeptical that they worked as well as everyone said. I have tried so many products over the last few years, but have not found anything that helped with the breakouts and the extreme oily skin. But I have to say, I can't believe the difference in my skin in just over a week of use of this product. My pores have shrunk dramatically and my skin is not as oily. I use this product and follow it up with the Extra Strength Blemish Fighting Solution. Thanks so much for all your great products and your excellent advice.

Two raves: 1) I am thrilled with the Constant Color Gel Eyeliner. I am frequently on stage facing hot lights, plus I have oily skin and I sweat. This eyeliner has lasted through everything I've done so far, plus it is easy to apply. 2) I have never used anything that improved my skin like the 2% Beta Hydroxy Acid Liquid. If I want, I can even go without makeup because my skin is so clear. I never dreamed I would be able to say that.
—Virginia G.
Like many others, I absolutely love your 2 percent BHA liquid. It has done wonders for my skin. I have suffered with acne for a long while now, and it has finally cleared up in just several weeks! It also makes my skin look fresh and glowy. A product that takes away blemishes and makes your skin look great is definitely worth a rave! Thank you, and never stop making it!
—Megan
This is the first time that I have ever made a comment on a product! I just felt I had to say something... This stuff is amazing! I had just come back from Zihuatanejo and my face started getting flaky from too much sun exposure. My order for the BHA Liquid had just arrived and it saved my skin! Within two days, all the flakiness was gone! I use this product with the Anti-oxidant concentrate. My skin is smoother and it glows too. Paula, I hope you continue to make those two products forever! Don't ever take them off the market!
—Linda K.
Your All Bases Covered Foundation just lost a customer. But that's only because your 2% BHA Liquid is so amazing! My skin was oily, flaky, blackhead ridden and had red patches and enlarged pores. Now my skin is so clear and smooth, I only need your Sheer Matte Tint ;-) Thank you for creating the closest thing to a miracle product I've seen in this industry.
—LeeAundra T.
I am 61 years old, 20 years past menopause and STILL struggle with acne and blackheads. Needless to say, I have tried many products over the years but your 2% Beta Hydroxy Liquid (and Gel) are the most helpful products I have ever found. My blackheads have really improved and the beta hydroxy liquid removes any flaky skin resulting from my use of benzoyl peroxide. The liquid is a great base for mineral make up which doesn't work well on my bare skin. Your product is unique on the market in that all the other salicylic acid products seem to contain undesirable alcohol.
—Diana C.
2% BHA liquid changed my skin! I can not buy a product like this any where and seriously can not live without it. I panic if I nearly run out and always keep one extra in my cabinet to ensure I never run out. Truly amazing product.
—Brandie D.
Your products are simply the best I have ever encountered. Since my early teens I have struggled with blackheads. In the past 5 years they had gotten worse, spreading from my t-zone to my cheeks and beyond. I would try to squeeze them out which only exacerbated the problem, making my skin red, uneven, and full of pimples. That is until I tried your products. Your little miracle, the 2% BHA solution, has pushed out and dissolved ALL of my blackheads within a month. I saw results immediately. I swear this stuff has taken out 15 years of gunk. I am amazed. Thank you so much!
—Lauren L.
I just wanted to RAVE about the 2% Beta Hydroxy Acid Liquid! I have only been using it for a month now and my skin is amazing! My blackheads on the sides my nose are almost gone and my face is not NEARLY as oily throughout the day when I have used the liquid the night before. I used to have a shiny face by noon everyday and now I don't have any shine almost all day. Thank you so much for this wonderful, affordable product!
—Sarah P.
Dear Paula, I have been using your skin-care products now for about 10 days and what a difference! I have always had super oily, acne-prone skin. I ordered your One Step Face Cleanser and 2% Beta Hydroxy Acid Liquid to work with the Tazorac I'm on. In just this short time, my face is smoother, softer and less oily during the day! Thank you, thank you, thank you! You have earned another loyal fan and lover of your great product. Thanks again and keep up the
good work!
—Kim B.
I have been a fan of yours for years. I have read your books, have seen you on television, and I subscribe to your Beauty Bulletin; it is incredible! I am a 45-year-old woman who has had problem skin for years battling acne and always remaining frustrated with all the products I have tried until I discovered yours. One word to describe them is amazing!!!!! I use your skin care and cosmetics. The 2% beta hydroxy lotions and solutions have cleared my acne!!! I love the Skin Balancing Cleanser; it really cleans the skin without drying it. I am a Canadian customer and even with the exchange on the money and paying duty I still am saving lots of money!! My skin looks great and I get complimented often now!! THANKS FOR ALL YOU DO!!!
—Cindy
I wanted to write to you and share my amazement and gratitude that your products are just what they say they are, and are producing good results for my skin. The 8% Alpha Hydroxy, 2% Beta Hydroxy, and 2.5% Benzoyl Peroxide have greatly improved all of my skin, including my problematic chin. Thank you from my heart!
—Kimberly S.
I have been using your products for 2 years now and my skin just keeps getting better. For the past 20 years I have been plagued by rosacea along with thick, oily, large-pored skin which always looked angry. I can't give enough praise to your 1% AND 2% BHA products and your Barely There Sheer Matte Tint SPF 20. I wear these products every single day and couldn't imagine life without them! My friends thought I'd had photo facials the improvement was so dramatic...until I explained to them it was all the result of your skin care program. Thanks once again, your products are awesome!!
—Sharon E.
As a guy I felt I had to comment because this product not only improved my skin texture but also solved my longstanding problem with inflammation and ingrown hairs in the neck area after shaving. Prior to that I had seen 2 top notch dermatolgists and none of them were able to offer me any real solution other than "grow your beard out" (no way! plus beard growth made it more painful!) and they didn't even bring up exfoliation with BHA as potential solution for me. I guess they weren't really top notch afterall. Thanks to Paula and the "Beauty Bible" which helped find this product!
—Ziad
When I started using this at the age of 35, I still had the pimple problems of a teenager. No more. My pores are smaller, blackheads are practically non-existent, and I don't get those deep painful pimples anymore. Using this product, along with the Skin Balancing Toner, as Paula prescribes in her skin care routines, has given me the skin I always thought was not possible for me. Paula's products are the best on the market.
—Christine Raymond
What everyone says about this product is true. It is the closest thing to a miracle in a bottle that I've ever found!
—Robin Huber
2% Beta Hydroxy Acid Liquid has singlehandedly solved nearly all of my adult acne woes. I cannot believe how smooth,soft, and clear my skin is and how even after using it frequently - it still works. Thanks so much!
—Leanne
I have been using your 2% beta hydroxy lotion and extra strength blemish fighting solution for several weeks now and I must say I am completely thrilled. Not only is my skin better than its EVER been, Ive even been able to stop taking birth control to reduce oil. Thank you from the bottom of my heart- and my wallet!
—Caroline
I am nearly 40 and still plagued by the occasional breakout, especially on my chin. This product is my secret weapon and I wouldn't be without it! There are other BH products on the market, but the majority are not the correct PH and are laden with unnecessary ingredients.
Thanks for another great product, Paula!
—Lisa
My nose is now completely devoid of blackheads after 28 years! I love your stuff sooooo much!
—Kathleen
