Not my favourite from Paula’s choice 

I absolutely love Paula’s choice, based on products I have used previously in their range. Specifically my all time favourite has to be the BHA toner, I have that in travel and full size and nothing gives me that glad skin glow like that does. I wanted to live this product so much based on my previous love for Paul’s choice products. I had heard mixed reviews regarding this one but wanted to give this a fair shot myself and make my own mind up. That is how I like to do things. Anyway, my first thought was the packaging is okay, nothing too special for a higher priced product. I followed the directions and used the specified amount on my face. After a few days I did start to notice break outs and felt the cream was heavy on my skin. I have oily and hormonal acne mainly on my chin. I felt this cream made me break out more and my skin felt greasy. Perhaps it works better on some skin types than others but this one just wasn’t a hit for me and I wouldn’t recommend or repurchase due to this. Perhaps bringing out a more sensitive version of this cream would help me love that.

Top SPF for sensitive skin!

SPF is the best anti-wrinkle care you can use! And how nice is this new SPF from @ [~ paulaschoice]? This SPF contains mineral sunscreens with a factor of 30 to protect the skin against sun damage. A slight white haze is visible when applied, but it disappears immediately when smeared. One of the star ingredients in this product is centella asiatica. A real life saver for sensitive homes because of its healing effect. It soothes the skin, has an anti-inflammatory effect and stimulates collagen production. I myself also have sensitive skin that responds quickly to skincare, sometimes resulting in eczema. I can use this SPF without any problems. It is gentle on my skin, moisturizes well and gives a nice soft satin finish. What can I say? I love it! Hopefully, it will also come out with SPF50 again. #paulaschoice #spf #suncare #antirimpel

Doesn't feel like sunscreen, but works great 🌞

Hi! After a good month of testing, I am very satisfied with CALM Barrier Protect Mineral Day Cream SPF 30 by Paula's Choice. The day cream has a light texture, so you don't feel like a sunburn. However, it does leave a greasy base for a while. Fortunately, this disappears, causing that feeling to disappear. I got no impurities from this. The CALM line ensures a calm skin. In addition, it protects well against the sun. With the sunny weekends in the past few weeks, I haven't sunburned at all. Lovely! Conclusion: You don't burn and it doesn't feel like a sunburn. I say it's ideal! X

Very good

How nice this one is for my skin. It has a fine texture that is quite fluid, it absorbs quickly and does not irritate my sensitive skin. I have to rub it thoroughly over my face so that no white haze remains. It comes in handy packaging, namely a tube where it comes out dosed, so you can't get too much out at once. It also has a pleasant or almost odorless scent that, in my opinion, is completely undominant.
