Best retinol

One of the best retinol on the market. honestly if u decide to buy anything from paulas choice cosmetics it wont be a bad purchase. They are pricey but i think its worth paying a bit extra as you get such good quality of the product. If u are beginner to retinol products make sure you use it properly in the beginning!

Dry skin with rosacea

I started using retinol in my late 20s, I was amazed by the results. Then Paul’s Choice 1% retinol became an all time favourite. I have rosacea and heard recently that retinol was bad for skin with rosacea so I stopped applying the product. My skin got worse without it and my rosacea situation wasn’t improving, on the contrary. So I went back to using this product and now my skin feels and looks good again.

Reduces fine lines

This retinol is not too heavy for your skin. I have sensitive skin and have built up nicely and was able to use this cream every night without irritation. After prolonged use, I saw a reduction in the fine lines on my forehead and around my eyes and my skin was beautifully plump and shiny. Good luck!

Meeeeega fan here!

I'm really a fan of this retinol serum. I've already used several Paula's Choice products, but I've tried retinol from other brands first. I had the idea that it did something, but I have to say that it wasn't really life-changing results. When I started using it, I first thought I had made the wrong decision because my skin was going to peel/purge (this appears to be normal). After a week, the purging was over and after 2 weeks the peeling was over and I really have much nicer skin than before. It looks nice and smooth, so I'll never use other retinol again!
