Paula's Choice CLINICAL 1% Retinol Treatment - Anti Aging & Skin Firming Serum for Face - Fights Wrinkles - with Vitamin C & Peptides - All Skin Types - 5 ml

The product works really well. The texture is amazing and my skin looks so much better since i started using it! however, I've noticed how this website has rise up the price before the discount deals, to then pretend like it's an offer by dropping it, and still more expensive than it normally is, so watch out!

I am 52 and people regularly comment on how beautiful my skin is. This was not the case when I was younger and only started to happen after using Paula's Choice products from age 46. I am so glad I found this product line. Wrinkles are minimized, and my skin glows and looks radiantly younger. Blemishes are no longer an issue and old scars are clearer and almost gone. The Retinol has made another significant difference in the healing of old scars from large pores and acne. I no longer worry about blemishes as soon as they begin I treat them with a strong BHA product and they are gone by morning. The Retinol can be strong so I take a break for a day or two until skin feels better than start again. My skin is building up and feels less and less sensitive to the Retinol. I love this product and won't be without it. It's expensive for me but it does last a good long time.

This stuff is nice, I’ve used better retinols but be aware of the size you are buying it’s tiny!

I didn’t really notice any effect from this product. I tried the small volume bottle and after finishing the whole lot I didn’t notice any difference with my facial skin at all. Would not try it again. However, we have different skin types so this may work on others. I would recommend starting with the small bottle first.

As a guy who has never really cared about skin, I bought this after researching skincare and was blown away. At the start, its a bit irritating, but after two months, I was no longer experiencing any irritation and have seen an unbelievable improvement in my skin. My guy friends who have zero interest in skincare randomly comment that my skin looks great lately. The fact that it was noticeable to them despite their lack of interest or awareness regarding this sort of thing says a lot.I know there are other retinols at much lower prices, but the ingredients on this make it a lot more tolerable. There are a lot of ingredients which soothe the skin. I used it three times a week at first and noticed some irritation, then started using it once every two days for a few weeks before upping it to every day with little to no issues. After six weeks, I felt no irritation and used it daily.

too small not worth the price

Having used for several weeks, I have been impressed with the results. It actually works

I've been using it since 2023 and I deliberately waited so long to review it because -let's be honest- creams don't make miracles! I wouldn't expect visible results within few weeks/months.Were the wrinkles that I had two years ago completely cancelled? Ha, not a chance! Do I have new wrinkles or (sun) spots? NOPE, and that's a result I'm happy to live with.I've been using it every night with the odd break here and there (sometimes, it still causes irritation around my mouth). I've been using the tiniest amount possible, only applying tiny dots of product on my face, and I can assure you that one tube can easily last a year, even with regular application.My only advice is not to rely on retinol only to keep your skin in good shape. I also apply SPF50 sunscreen daily, don't drink alcohol, don't smoke, and my diet includes lots of vegetables and mixed seeds. Skin care requires consistency and taking multiple steps. It's not all about skin products but also about having a healthy diet and lifestyle.
