I wish I could give this product more of a 3.5/5 because I do really like this moisturizer. I have very very oily, sensitive acne prone skin. This is very lightweight and I love all the antioxidant...

Makes my complexion red and irritated and new breakouts upon waking. Better off using nothing at all.

This is a moisturizer with a gel like consistency, which sinks in nicely and has great ingredients. However, I think that it probably suits oily skintypes best. I have dehydrated skin and often...

This product sounded perfect for me - anti ageing and a bit of help for my clogged pores and occasional monthly spots. However, this is not good for my skin at all - it's winter here so I need...

I've worked my way through a number of the moisturisers offered by Paula's Choice over the past couple of years. It's one of the areas I've found them to be lacking in; not awful by any means,...

I somehow used an entire bottle of this without any lasting impression, other than it had great packaging (hygenic pump bottle) and that it was an ok, lightweight moisturizer. I guess it's a "meh"?
