Paula's Choice reviews and discussion

The Skin Restoring Moisturizer with SPF 50 has been one of my go-to sunscreens for quite some time now. I love the consistency and it blends in nicely. It is on the pricey side and the tube isn't that big, but it definitely works and protects your skin!

The BHA toner is a HG product for me. Hot tip: Get the smaller travel size to try, it's cheaper and still lasts you a year! I love how all the products are scientifically backed AND come at an affordable price point. Bonus: it's unscented so great for sensitive people. There's a product line for all kinds of skincare needs and they make it easy to narrow down what you might need for your skin.

Love their BHA toner - it definitely helps to exfoliate the skin and eliminate dark spots.

I use the Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant at night and think it’s amazing. My face feels clean and clear after use, without that ultra-drying effect that astringent has.

The exfoliant is one of the best on the market; the Super Boost Vit C 5% line is truly amazing, feels very creamy and luxurious; doesn't cause any breakouts or leave the skin feeling oily or sticky.

I have been repurchasing the Renew Daily Pore-Refining Treatment 2% BHA for 3 + years. I use it to keep my oily t-zone free from congestion and white heads and shrink the appearance of my pores. Before using it, I would get a few zits around my period on my forehead and had more texture on my forehead. Now, I maybe get 1 zit in a month and it goes away much faster (with the help of zit sticker). Also pores on my nose look smaller. Also my facialist complimented my skin texture and said it was very smooth :) I use it regularly once a day and it lasts roughly 3 - 4 months. I also admire Paula's Choice and how much effort they spend on educating customers on skincare using science-backed claims. I always wait for the 20% discount before repurchasing.

Overall good quality and not too harsh on sensitive skin

I LOVE their liquid exfoliant, its definitely help reduced the look of pores in my nose.

Looove Paula's Choice BHA liquid exfoliant. I use it at night and see a noticeable difference in my skin when I wake up in the morning.

I've been using their cleanser and moisturizer and can recommend! I have a sensitive skin but it didn't that tight feeling on my skin after cleansing that many other products do. Will buy again :)

I got a massive rash on my skin as a result of it :(

Every single product I have tried from Paula's Choice, I've loved. Although I enjoy fragrance in my skincare products, my skin doesn't always enjoy it. My favorite product is their dry skin moisturizer. It makes my skin feel super hydrated and soft like a baby's bottom. The best part about Paula's Choice, is its affordable!

Really love the balance foaming cleanser. Quite light, doesn't make my face oily or dry, and keeps the acne away. Does a decent job at removing makeup as well. I've used it daily for over 2 years and haven't found a product I like more.

Paula’s Choice 2% BHA body lotion is my holy grail for KP! Keeps my skin nourished and bump-free. It’s pricy, so I reserve it for use in KP problem areas, and use cheaper moisturizers for most of my body. I’ve also gotten great results from their Azelaic Acid ‘booster’ after washing my face. Quickly cuts redness and adds softness. Also tried their Smooth Finish conditioner which was nicely moisturizing, lightweight and a great option for people needing fragrance free products. No buildup and didn’t dry out or weigh down my curly waves. Wasn’t impressed with the 2% BHA liquid exfoliant, despite my love for the lotion formula. They really spam their email list, you can get some great deals but constantly pushing to spend with sales and add on bonuses.

Their retinol is my go to! I've tried many retinol products and Paula's Choice is the best by far!

I've been using their AHA and BHA products for years and love how cost effective they are. I also really appreciate their commitment to zero-waste because they'll actually take back empty containers for recycling, which very few brands do.

Very expensive for what you are getting. I would honestly opt for a more easily accessible brand that is fairer priced. I used several of the Paula's Choice products and never saw a genuine improvement in my skin. If you do purchase them... don't fall in too deep and feel the need to get a whole line up of one ingredient. Like I had four BHA/AHA products when I really would only have a BHA/AHA in one form.

The best skin care line, hands down. You just have to know what you are looking for. The quizzes help pick your products as well. I really appreciate the transparency when ordering so I know if I'm getting AHAs, BHAs, retinols, etc, and at what percent. As an MD, I like that I can get products close to medical grade that are gentle and travel well. I have tried about 12 different products and have reordered all of them.

Paula's choice BHA salicylic acid exfoliator is a staple and has helped me remove a lot of my acne. I didn't believe the hype on tiktok until a friend confirmed it so I purchased it from the US. I'm happy to hear that its now in Canadian stores. I will continue to use this forever.

I wish I had each of everything made by Paula's Choice! Top quality products at a reasonable price.
