Paula’s choice vs Inkey list BHA?

Hi! I’ve recently started using the paula’s choice 2% BHA liquid, but I feel that sometimes it makes my pimples worse rather than better. I’m considering purchasing the inkey list BHA. How do you think they compare?

I’ve used it for 7 weeks now, and still have the same reaction, so I thought it might be a bit too strong?

If you have recently started using this product and u have have more pimples in areas that you usually have then you may be experiencing purging. If not, then maybe this product it’s too strong for you. The inkey list BHA it’s a little more gentle and it contains HA. I haven’t tried any of them but I just checked the ingredient lists and the inkeynlist one looks more gentle

Yes i have used the PC for about 7 weeks so thats why I thought it might not be the right product for me, sounds like the inkey list is worth the try then thank you!

That's how BHA works, it is called purging. It will make your acne worse before it gets better! U just have to use it religiously and the purging will stop at weeks 2- a month

Hello! I have recently started using BHA from Inkey list I have only used it twice so far and I don’t think I can use it again Reason being is the first time I applied it by skin the next day was sore (red) and very itchy The next week I applied it , it wasn’t as red but very itchy A week later my skin is still itchy and I have texture on my skin more than before I have looked in to it and I believe I had a reaction to the product as it’s too strong for me I have sensitive skin btw You should usually see improvements after 4 weeks of using it It’s not recommended to use it more that 2-3 times a week But you know your skin best, if your not seeing results and it’s causing more issues, it might be better to stop Both products have the same percentage of salicylic acid so should show the same results Only difference is BHA has hylaronic acid added to the ingredients Hope this helps :)
