A concentrated, rinse-off exfoliant peel that goes to work in just 10 minutes to improve multiple signs of ageing, sun damage and congested pores. Water-soluble AHAs address fine lines, wrinkles and rough, crepey texture, while oil-soluble BHA unclogs and refines. The result after rinsing? Hydrated, supple, ultra-glowy skin.

How to use an exfoliant
Once per week, use on clean skin. Apply a generous layer all over the face and neck. Leave on for 10 minutes. Rinse thoroughly. Do not use other exfoliants on the same day as this product.
Please note: Slight tingling may occur; if this happens, it should subside within a moment or two. If it does not subside or intensifies, immediately rinse peel with warm water. Do not use on compromised, sensitised skin.
Sun protection advice when using any AHA exfoliant: This product contains alpha hydroxy acids, ingredients that may increase your skin's sensitivity to the sun and the possibility of sunburn. Always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen rated SPF 30 or greater every day. When outdoors, wear protective clothing whenever possible, seek shade, and avoid prolonged sun exposure.
This product is ideal for anyone with advanced signs of ageing and sun damage or severely clogged pores and congested skin who are seeking an effective, peel-type product for at-home use. This advanced, rinse-off exfoliant can be an ideal complement to your daily leave-on exfoliants.
The 25% AHA + 2% BHA Exfoliant Peel is a weekly treatment designed to complement your current exfoliation routine although you would not use on the same day as your other leave-on exfoliants. This weekly peel can dramatically enhance the results you’re already getting from your Paula’s Choice exfoliants.
Because this is a rinse-off exfoliant, you would apply after cleansing. Leave on for 10 minutes and then rinse. You can then follow with the rest of your routine, minus the exfoliant step.
The term “peel” describes a wide range of different types and strengths of exfoliation. The 25% AHA + 2% BHA Exfoliant Peel was formulated for home use. It’s a superficial peel that targets the uppermost layers of skin. Medium or deep peels work differently by affecting lower layers of skin and are designed for in-office application, monitoring, and removal by a skincare professional.
This colour is from the ingredient clitoria ternatea (butterfly pea flower) which is also known as blue matcha. It has been shown to have a calming and soothing effect on skin. Its lavender tint joins with shimmer mineral pigment mica so you can see where the rinse-off exfoliant has been applied. Note: The colour on skin will vary based on skin tone.
You can use this peel morning or night although we find that most prefer evening use. Apply a generous amount to clean, dry skin, avoiding the immediate eye area and lips. Leave on for ten minutes then rinse using warm water. Pat dry. Do not use other exfoliants at the same time as this product. Do not use more than once per week. For day, always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen rated SPF 30 or greater every day. When outdoors, wear protective clothing whenever possible, seek shade, and avoid prolonged sun exposure.
