Frequently Asked Questions
How is Paula's Choice Skin Revealing Body Lotion with 10% AHA different from the 8% Alpha Hydroxy Acid Gel? Do I need both?
The two major differences between these exfoliants are that the Skin Revealing Body Lotion is in a creamy moisturising base while the 8% AHA Gel has a fluid, gel base. The concentration of glycolic acid is the other main difference, with the Skin Revealing Body Lotion containing 10% AHA and being designed for use from the neck down. Both AHA products are formulated within the pH range needed to exfoliate dry, sun-damaged skin.
Can I use Skin Revealing Body Lotion with 10% AHA on my face?
Although the formula has been developed for the body, it is also possible to use it on your face. If you have used AHA products (formulated in an acidic pH range to allow for exfoliation) on your face without irritation, you should be able to use Skin Revealing Body Lotion too.

GET RID OF THOSE SMALL RED BUMPS (KERATOSIS PILARIS)Do you have patches of small red bumps on your upper arms, back or thighs? Do they look and feel like goose bumps and do you suffer from itching? Then your skin is probably prone to keratosis pilaris. Fortunately, there are various ways to treat them. Never use bars of soap. This type of soap contains ingredients that may irritate your skin and can clog pores, making the problem worse. Also do not use scrubs. Scrubs can irritate the skin, causing inflammation. Scrubs only tackle the outer layer of the skin but that is not where the problem lies. It is buried much deeper in the skin, and scrubs, facecloths, loofahs and bath puffs cannot get to it. If topical treatments do not help get rid of keratosis pilaris (bear in mind that you must use the products for several weeks before you see any results), it is worth consulting a dermatologist. There are laser treatments for keratosis pilaris that may be worth the money and the effort. |
BHA OR AHA?It is vital to use an exfoliating product that unclogs the pore and helps dead skin cells shed more easily. A BHA exfoliant with active salicylic acid removes dead skin cells, cleansing the inside of the pores. BHA also has anti-inflammatory properties and eliminates bacteria that might cause pimples. Resist Weightless 2% BHA Body Treatment and Clear Exfoliating Body Spray 2% BHA are products with a proven effect on skin that is prone to keratosis pilaris. If your skin is prone to keratosis pilaris and does not respond well to salicylic acid, you can use an AHA exfoliant instead or combine or alternate AHA and BHA products. While AHA is great for removing dead skin cells, it cannot penetrate into the pore. To control skin with keratosis pilaris, you must continue to exfoliate. If you stop, the bumps will come back. Sometimes you will need to experiment for a while to find the right frequency of use and determine which exfoliant works best. |
WHAT ARE THE KEY INGREDIENTS?SHEA BUTTER This plant lipid, extracted from the karite tree, is used as an emollient and has smoothing properties for dry skin. it’s also a rich source of antioxidants.
