Is this the same or better as the liquid exfoliant as this is a gel?

Thank you for your questions. The Skin Perfecting 2% BHA exfoliant comes in three varieties of textures: lotion, gel, and liquid. All three have the same strength. Your choice depends on your texture preference and skin type. They can be used on all skin types, however, if you don’t have a preference, please use the following guide to choose the one most suitable for your skin type: Normal/dry skin → Lotion Combination skin → Gel Combination/oily skin → Liquid Team Paula's Choice

I have a big stubborn blackhead on my neck. Will this help?

Thank you for your message, yes, the Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Exfoliant targets blackhead-prone skin. Kind regards, Team Paula's Choice

What is the difference between the small amd big except the price and size

Dear Caraline, Thank you for your query! We assume you mean the difference between our BHA Gel and Liquid. Both contain 2% BHA (salicylic acid), however the biggest difference is the texture. Our liquid is mainly for combination to oily skin where our gel is a little bit more hydrating and is perfect for normal to combination skin. We hope this is helpful! Kind regards, Team Paula's Choice
