Benefits

Weightless Body Treatment 2% BHA is unlike any body lotion you may have tried because of its unique skin-smoothing benefits that become visible from the first use. This lightweight yet moisturising body lotion is a completely non-abrasive, gentle way to shed built-up layers of dead skin, resulting in unbelievably smooth, younger-looking skin from the neck down.

This exfoliant has a pH range of 3.5–3.9.

Works from the first application to visibly make rough, dry skin a thing of the past. Ongoing use banishes dullness and promotes resilient skin that’s touchably soft and ultimately smooth. This is a customer favorite, suitable even for skin prone to keratosis pilaris.

How To Use

Apply a small amount to clean skin. May be used daily for all-over smoothing, or applied as a spot treatment where needed. Apply this treatment first when using with a moisturiser. For daytime, follow with a broad-spectrum sunscreen rated SPF 15 or greater.


If you have a salicylate allergy, check with your physician before using any products that contain salicylic acid.

FAQs

Can you use Paula's Choice Weightless Body Treatment with 2% BHA on your face?

Yes, you can use this body BHA on your face if its hydrating texture suits your skin type. The ingredients in this formula are suitable for skin anywhere.

Which product is better for bumpy skin on the arms and legs: Paula's Choice Weightless Body Treatment or CLEAR Exfoliating Body Spray?

Both products contain 2% BHA (salicylic acid) which is suitable for this concern, so it really comes down to your texture and application preference. Weightless Body Treatment has a silky, non-greasy, hydrating lotion texture that glides easily over your arms and legs while CLEAR Exfoliating Body Spray's featherlight liquid texture is great for hard-to-reach areas.

Which acid is best for bumpy skin?

Beta hydroxy acid (BHA, or salicylic acid, which is the key ingredient in this product) and alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs, such as glycolic acid, the key ingredient in Skin Revealing Body Lotion) are both suitable for small hard bumps on skin, including skin prone to keratosis pilaris.

How is Paula's Choice Weightless Body Treatment different from the 2% BHA Exfoliants for your face?

The primary differences between these body and facial exfoliants are their size, texture and base formula since they all contain the same key ingredient, 2% BHA. The lightweight lotion-based Weightless Body Treatment is hydrating, and excellent for all skin types, and especially for those with concerns of anti-ageing from the neck down. 2% BHA Liquid, Gel and Lotion offer different texture options, each suitable for various skin types.

How to use Paula's Choice Weightless Body Treatment?

Apply this product to clean skin. You can use it as a spot treatment or apply it the way you would a regular body lotion.

How many times a week should I use Paula's Choice Weightless Body Treatment?

You can use Weightless Body Treatment every day, or as often as needed.

Should the Paula's Choice Weightless Body Treatment be applied to wet or dry skin?

While you can apply this treatment to wet or dry skin, most people find that it applies easiest to freshly cleansed, towel-dried skin.

Is the Paula's Choice Weightless Body Treatment a serum or a lotion?

This product is an exfoliating body lotion. It has the non-greasy moisturising texture of a lotion, but its benefits go beyond standard body hydrators by also offering exfoliating benefits, so skin feels soft and smooth.

    They're not kidding

    I actually wasn't expecting to love this, but I do and I've been recommending it to friends! It's unbelievably silky and lightweight, no grease anywhere. It has the usual vaguely sour scent that anything with a bit of acid in there usually does - oddly, I'm into that because psychologically I know there's proof of an active ingredient. My legs so far have been getting the treatment, and I can definitely see it sorting out my skin tone and making my calves a lot more even than they used to be. My skin feels softer too!

    I can't give it the full 5 stars because I was hoping for more visible improvement of the strawberry legs/bumps or whatever they are, but maybe with a bit more application they'll go too.
