I enjoyed reading this YEARS ago but now that Paula Begoun has her own line it seems more biased.

I give Paula a lot of credit. For two things 1) gathering research and 2) For not going with only natural products. The fact that many of us know about her on makeupalley, shows that their was a...

I second the review that asks for civility and rationality. I prefer science over magic. I prefer less ranting. I don't understand the vitriol. Keep in mind, this company recommends scads of...

This is my first review on Makeupalley and I just suddenly felt compelled to write it out of sheer frustration at all the negative reviews! I know we are all entitled to our opinions, what would a...

I will go to the cosmetics counter every time without this piece of crap. This woman recommends the most harmful-to-skin products.

Forget Paula's Choice, her books and her website are only a clever kind of content marketing to advertise her brand and her products.
Regarding the reviews of other brand products, she is not...

Sorry lady, when you put your dog in the fight so to speak you lost your credibility. If you really had much to start with. You are pimpin' your own line and that is just wrong. Would I go to...

I didn't mind this book. I found a lot of things useful, but I also found Paula contradicted herself many times. She is against eye creams, but offers eye creams in her skin care line. She also...

I was given this book as a gift and I just can't read any further. She gives her own entire line of products a perfect rating. Geeee that's not biased at all... She lost all credibility in my eyes...

This is basically the skin care/cosmetics bible IF you are a PB fan or cluless about the industry. I think it's courageous to expose the skincare/cosmetics industry for the fraud that it is and I...

Just think of her as a one single makeupalley reviewer who has some credibility to her knowledge, and you'll take her opinions with the right amount of salt. In other words, she's still ONE...

Let me start by saying that I spent a lot of years as a Paula Begoun denier. There were products in her books that she didn't recommend that worked for me, and vice versa, and I definitely thought...

There is no credibility in a so called cosmetic author that actively markets her products by putting other brands down. She is not a scientist nor an expert, in my opinion, in the cosmetic...

I know its controversial to like PB at this point, on MUA at least! I like her for various reasons, I was also a makeup artist (still certified), and can relate to her given that. I like how she...

Let me start by saying that if there is anything I've learned it's that what works for one will not work for another. There are no tried and true rules to skin care, hair care, etc. that will work...

The moment Paula Begoun started selling her own products, she lost any credibility in being an objective commentator. She has a vested interest in her own products which is obviously apparent when...
