Quite by accident I discovered my perfect pre-foundation product, Paula's Choice 2% beta hydroxy acid lotion. All my life (now 73) I've been plagued with a shiny, oily-looking complexion. I've tried matte products, and every other product you offer....still have that awful shiny, oily-looking face. No amount of blotting made the slightest difference. One day after applying the 2% beta lotion I decided to stop right there and proceed with the foundation. Voila! It worked. It creates more of a soft matte appearance, with a glow, not a shine.

As a 50 year old woman with hormonal skin problems and sensitive skin, I tried so many products that it made me crazy. I wanted something to keep my skin clear, and get on the anti-ageing band wagon, and this was it!! Using the 2% BHA at night leaves me with clear skin that does not flake, and softens the look of lines and wrinkles. I love it and threw away all the junkie creams and potions that only made me more oily and more broken out. I know I will be a fan for life with this amazing product. I just love it and I look like I am 40, not 50! Paula's products are the real deal.

I love your 2% BHA lotion. It feels like a makeup primer and makes my foundation go on smoother.

My five year old daughter has keratosis pilaris on her arms and legs and nothing we tried helped the condition until we began using Paula's Choice 2% BHA. Now we use this lotion twice a day, and her skin looks and feels wonderful. I am so glad we found this lotion. The specialized products for keratosis on the market seem to be too harsh for little kids.

I have been using your 2% Beta Hydroxy acid lotion for over a year. It clears up my acne better than anything else on the market. It even helps my teenage son who gets cystic acne. It works better than what the doctor has prescribed for my son. I think this the best thing available to help with acne! Thanks again.

I have been using Paula's skin care products for several months and have been impressed with every item. However, I recently purchased the 2% Beta Hydroxy Lotion and I am amazed!!! I am 45 years old and as I've aged, the old acne scars from my youth have become more and more prevalent. Needless to say this has really bothered me....even to the point of considering plastic surgery. OK, now comes the really exciting part. Since using Paula's 2% BHA lotion, the scars have practically disappeared. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!!!
—Kristine S.
THANK YOU!!!!!!!! I have had problems with my skin for as long as I can remember. I am now 35 and have rosacea with acne. I have tried anything and everything, even prescriptions and nothing was helping.....UNTIL I tried your Paula's Choice products. I use the Skin Balancing Cleanser, 2% Beta Hydroxy Acid Lotion and the Completely Non-Greasy Sunscreen SPF 15. My skin looks GREAT! No redness, no flushing, no acne!!! My skin looks and feels great! BRAVO!!!

I have Keratosis Pilaris on my arms and legs. It is very a very ugly condition, my pores get very clogged and there is the temptation to pick and pop them open. It looks like I have terrible acne on my arms and legs. Scrubbing makes it worse. I have tried many products over the years with no success. A week ago I tried Paula's Choice 2% Beta Hydroxy Lotion and it is changing my life. It seems to dissolve the material in my pores very quickly, and my skin is getting back to normal. I noticed a huge improvement after one night. Thank you, thank you, thank you SO MUCH...
—Sarah B.
I use your 2% BHA lotion and it has completely gotten rid of my keratosis pilaris (as long as I remember to apply it somewhat regularly!). Great product. I also use the 1% BHA gel on my face and it keeps my skin very clear. I'm so excited about your products because I know you're not trying to sell me any gimmicks like all the rest of the brands out there. All of your products are supported by sound research that I trust, so I feel good about using your line...and so does my skin.
—Jessica P.
Like everyone else who discovered Paula's Choice, I was amazed to find a product line that was effective, simple, affordable and complete. I use the 2% BHA lotion with the Skin Balancing Cleanser and Toner, along with Tazorac, and after almost 40 years, my blemishes are fading. Thank you, Paula.
—Michelle
Paula, your products are the best that I have found ANYWHERE!!! I use the 2% BHA lotion under my makeup during the day and the 8% AHA gel at night. I also love your toners and the carbon mask! Thank you so much for making your products so reliable and affordable... I am a college student and cannot afford fancy creams!
—Caroline
I am 45 and have been searching all my adult life for something to effectively treat my blackheads, whiteheads, and large pores. It makes me sick to think of the thousands of dollars i have wasted on expensive AHA products over the years only to find all i needed was a BHA product, specifically Paula's Choice 2% BHA Lotion. Within 5 days--no lie--all black and white comedones were completely gone without any irritation whatsoever! My skin texture is smoother, more even, and the pores appear far less noticable. I just love this stuff and will be ordering it again. Thank you Paula and God bless you.
