For me it is Paula's Choice - it made a major difference in my skin. My large pores - greatly reduced. Blemishes - I don't get them any more. Blackheads? Gone. Crow's feet - gone. Skin radiant? Yes. Do I have ""makeup optional"" skin - yes.

I am 43 and I had oily combo skin since I was 12. Nothing else has worked as well for me and many products were irritating my skin and I didn't realize it. I thought that I would just have bad skin. So I got amazing results from this line and I have found it to be by far the most effective skin care I have used.

Which of Paula's products are you using? Your results sound great. Smiley Happy

Overall, Paula's Choice. It pretty much defines what I consider good skin care. I do, however, supplement it with a couple NCN serums and Juice Beauty Cleansing Milk.

Similar here too- The majority of my skincare is Paula's choice and NCN products and they have taken my skin to the next level. Have used some of PC's products for several years and NCN for a few years now and no plans to change.

My mom (in her 60's) recently changed over to PC and NCN from a high end brand she bought at Nordstroms and she is VERY happy as well- she saves beaucoup money AND has seen positive changes to her skin (more luminosity and faded a few age spots). Based on her results and mine, a few of my friends have switched as well. Every one is very happy. Not everything is a love but when they find the ones that are a good fit for them, they are very happy.

BOOTS! Made in England and sold only at Target or ULTA stores. I use the Protect/Perfect INTENSE serum, day cream, night cream (different formulas for different skin types) cleansers, and face mask. Everything I've used is good - a large selection to choose from.

I am having tremendous results with the Clarisonic, Algenist & ExfoliKate. My skin has never looked better. I will also say that I do go in for a medical chemical peel every 3-4 months for deep exfoliation. I go to a Dr. that does a TCA-Phenol peel. I would only trust a medical professional because it is AMAZING!!

I have gotten the best results with Robin MaGraw's (Phil's wife). Her "1, 2, 3," facial line. At 69yrs old, I have tried many, many products.

Paula's Choice hands down. I always see the results right away. I highly recommend:

BHA liquid 2% ( I am using the one from the Clear line. It has a water texture and not oily)

Resist Foaming BHA 4%

Resist Retinol - both the 1% and the retinol serum

Resist C15 Vitamin C

Resist SPF 30 tinted moisturizer

Resist Advanced Replenishing Toner

I still use Purity and Microdelivery as my daily cleansers. My skin looks amazing!!! Clear and radiant!!!! I also use the Foreo Luna to wash my face. It really makes your skin soft and deep cleans.

I still use Ole Henrikson's Sheer Transformation as my morning moisturizer. It never leaves an oily sheen and lasts forever. As a night time moisturizer I use Complex 15, which is similar to CeraVe. I have been using that for almost 7 years. I buy it in specialty pharmacies or on Amazon. It deeply moisturizes but is not heavy. Highly recommend for combo or oily skin.

Me too!!! I have oily skin and Paula's Choice products are amazing, but also on all types of skin. Paula had acne growing up so I believe all her products are made not to break out the skin. They work so well and are reasonably priced.
