What the gurus are saying

This cream-based BHA exfoliant applies more easily to the body than liquid versions and won't leave you feeling sticky after use. Gurus found it softens skin and tackles acne and keratosis pilaris (the red bumpy texture many people get on their arms and legs), with the added bonus that you get twice the product for the same price as comparable liquid exfoliants. It has no fragrance, so those with sensitive skin may find that gentler than scented alternatives.

"Paula's Choice Weightless Body Treatment 2% BHA, which is 32 bucks, is a nice lightweight lotion. It's great for acne prone skin and also great for those with KP, which is a skin condition where you get like red bumpy skin and it just needs a little bit of exfoliant. A lot of people get it on the back of their arms or sometimes on their legs. It has no scent to it, and it softens skin up."

"I've also started using the Paula's Choice Weightless Body Treatment with 2% BHA. BHA is salicylic acid, it's a chemical exfoliant. I found that this is a bit less sticky and it's easier to apply because it's a cream. The product that is formulated for your body is easier to apply to your body. If you don't have a whole bunch of liquid exfoliant lying around, then you might want to try this one because they are the same price but this one is twice the size."
