After trying a lot of Paula's new Products, I realize I am gonna stick with her Old Stuff

I still use my core products, but I have lately tried some of her makeup items and love them. The only new skincare product that I have tried is her Resist Moisture Boost Oil (not sure if that is the exact name). I absolutely love it.

I do not find that her prices are outrageous at all. I think she is still right in the mid-range between drugstore and high-end.

The prices have gone up but no, I don't find them outrageous at all- she always has good sales so I've never paid full price for her skincare. And since I know they actually made a difference for my skin and last forever, I definitely think they are worth every penny. The moisture boost oil I've been using since the beginning of December every.single.day and still have alot left. I know I got it on sale and it was under $30. So for the oil being under $30 and lasting well over 3 months and still going strong (the oil), the BHA's under $25 and lasting me several months and the moisturizer also under $25 and lasting me at least a couple months, for the prices and the changes I've seen in my skin, they are a great bargain, imo.

I have used her bha liquid, lotion and now also the Clear anti-redness 2% bha for many years and won't ever be without. I like the Clear anti-redness BHA better than the regular 2% liquid (I didn't really like the RESIST 2% BHA) now because it is lighterweight and these days, it is more what my skin likes. Now, sometimes the 2% BHA liquid feels a bit sticky on my skin if I use a bit too much. I really love the lotion but again, my skin changed and now it sometimes is too much for my skin. The Clear anti-redness 2% is the perfect one for me now. I've tried some of her other newer products over the years- vitamin C, BHA 9%, AHA products, serums, etc but I don't really like those as much and stick with the 2% BHA products, the Moisture Boost serum and her skin recovery moisturizer with SPF. Those three products I will never be without.

I use the Skin Recovery moisturizer ( the non-SPF) every night and have done so for close to two years, I think. I love it, especially around the eyes. I do not think that it's sticky or greasy at all.

Yes, I do feel she's gotten a little pricey. I wait for a good sale and stock up.

I've only used the products for about a year or so, and it took me a while to find the right ones for me. I've found that there are a few that are really good, but like most other skin care lines, I don't like or can't use many of the products.

I've found through trial and error that "less is best" in my case, so I don't use a lot of the serums and treatments. I'm also thinking about going back to my previous cleanser and nixing Paula's cleanser and toner combo. But the Resist Light 2% BHA is terrific for me. I also have found that I just can't exfoliate as much as her line recommends.

As for pricing, I don't think that her treatment products are out of line, but when I added them up, the cleanser and toner were pretty pricey, considering that I found they didn't really do anything more for me than what I had already been using.

On the whole, I do like her products. But like others have stated, I normally wait for a sale to purchase.

ETA: Perhaps the recent sale of the company is why the prices are increasing. This seems to happen with all companies that get bought out.

Honestly, I haven't tried anything of hers that I didn't like. Somethings work better for me than others, but I can't say anything was terrible. To answer your other question, no I don't feel her prices are outrageous at all.

Paula's prices have went up a little but so have a lot of brands. I do think her prices are reasonable and there is always a sale going on. I don't think I've ever paid full price for anything I've ordered. I also agree that most of her products last a long time.
