Paula's choice application question

elruth · ‎03-13-2010

I have Paula's Choice Retinol from QVC. It says to apply a pea sized amt to forehead, cheeks and chin. Does that mean the total amt to use is a pea sized amount or does that mean to use a pea sized amt in each of those areas?

You'll never cover your face with the "pea size" quanity but that's what they mean. I tried using this product, saw no results other than pimples, which I hadn't had for yesrs.

You're talking about the Clinical 1% Retinol that is fairly creamy? If so, yes, one pea-sized amount for the whole face.

I use what might be considered as a fairly robust-looking pea. I have absolutely no problem covering my face at all. If you are having trouble, try using a bit bigger of a pea -- don't overdo, though.

This is one of my favorite PC products now. I had been using the retinol booster previously, which might have helped me when switching to this because I have had no adverse reactions to speak of.

If you're talking about the 1% retinol, I thoroughly mix a pea sized amount into my evening mousturizer. That way, I know it's evenly distributed on my face.
