I am using the PC Clear Anti-Acne system, and noticed some drying on my face. I started using the RESIST Barrier Repair Moistureizer. I use it around my eyes (carefully). I also apply it over my...

This is a great moisturizer because it goes on light and absorbs well. It's loaded with antioxidants and peptides for your skin. Fortunately it hasn't caused me any breakouts, but I have to say...

I wouldn't call this Paula's cream very "moisturizing," but it's a fantastic retinoid cream. Retinol is rather high on the ingredient list - but yet it's buffered, so it's not so irritating. Be...

I do agree with mapn, Paula's Choice's postage costs to Finland are ridiculously expensive - in USA you get free delivery if you spend over $49 - in Europe free delivery was offered in February for...

EDIT 04/2012: I'm upping this from 4 to 5 lippies. This has proven to be an unbeatable moisturiser for my skin. I use it every now and then on my whole face when it feels a bit drier (mainly in the...

At first, my skin reacted badly to this. It produced red blotches and flakiness. I scaled back to every other day and things calmed down. Now I use this as a treatment every night (it is not...

Very light and nongreasy under makeup or at night, absorbs quickly, no irritation. It's an interesting thing to get used to since it doesn't leave your skin feeling "moist." I quite like the feel...

I agree with everyone who is cautioning against using too much. Just use one pump for your face. If you don't use too much, it's not irritating. If you're using two or more pumps, you're...

What a shame. I love all of the other PC products I have tried - AHA 8%, BHA 2%, and esp the Antioxidant concentrate - but this was a dud. I used it for 2 months, and it did nothing - except...
