Not true. She even has a page dedicated to the best of the best.

In any case, I like her critical eye, even if I don't always agree. Her reviews are not about personal opinion but more about ingredients. It's a worthy complement to anecdotal reviews.

Thanks suzy. Do you use any of her stuff? I did see that she thought Canyon Ranch was ""best"" ... I have tried and liked their line. Most of what I read even if she gave a good rating there was a ""but""... will have to read more.

One of her biggest "con" reviews is about jar packaging - she hates jars. And I tend to agree - once you open a jar, the contents are compromised, and then you dip your finger in! Ugh!

I really appreciate her reviews. I find that she gives a lot of ""best"" ratings. I use her products.

I see her reviews as balanced expressing the positive and negative. I do not think there are very many perfect products if any.

Yes. Her own products. She can't be fair when she's in direct competition. It's all about the money.

Not true. She recommends and prefers CLINIQUE Rinse-Off Eye Makeup Solvent over her own make-up remover. The video on YouTube is Paula's favorite skin, hair and makeup products.

If you look at her reviews of the Clinique line overall they are excellent. Says a lot about a great line that has stood the test of time.

Yes, bunjetto, I do use some of her products -- moisturizers, toners, sunscreen, and make-up remover.
