Dear Dr. Baumann,
I have enjoyed reading your book and the Cosmetic Cop's Beauty Bible. You appear to have a mutual respect for each other, seeing as you're both fighting the 'good fight'.
However there was a difference that i was wondering if you could clear up for me. As it would solve all my problems...almost, as well as my housemate and boyfriend's too (i have taken over their skin program too!).

You recommend using a cleanser with BHA's in it, while Paula recommends using a topical BHA product that you leave on your skin, as it doesn't get washed down the drain and therefore has time to act.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I'm stuck and not inclined to move on to the spot/redness issues til i work this out!
Thankyou.

Hi Razamataz,

Have you taken this to the Q&A section as well? It's meant for these kinds of questions.

a leave on BHA product will be more effective, however, very dry flushing types may not tolerate it and should stick with the cleanser instead.
