PAULA'S CHOICERESIST Barrier Repair Moisturizer with Retinol, Squalane & Shea Butter, Cream for Anti-Aging & Wrinkles , Dry Skin, 50 ml

In my late forties now, so had started to feel the impact of ageing. My skin had lost its elasticity, I had hyper pigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles and enlarged pores. I started doing multiple things simultaneously - I bought the AHA/ BHA lotion, which I apply 3-4 times a week. In addition to that I’ve added vitamin c to my arenal, and finally this amazing product, that I put every night. One month into this and I feel that my skin has transformed. Pores / blackheads minimised, age spots steadily fading, wrinkles still there but diminishing, skin is overall feeling plumper and more glowing. I generally use this product followed by a cream 15 minutes later and it’s really worked well for my skin. Cannot recommend it enough, worth the price! Must buy!

Great moisturizer! I was a bit hesitant about this specific moisturizer because of the retinol and the peeling that could result. However, I did not peel at all with this moisturizer. The texture of this moisturizer is satiny and light. I've been using it during the day under makeup and it does not impact how my makeup settles which is a plus. I'll definitely be buying again after I run out.

LOVE IT!! Exactly what I need

I've been using this daily for a few weeks and I'm pretty pleased. I had visible improvement in acne, hyperpigmentation, and fine lines after my first night of use, and it's only gotten better from there in my few weeks of daily use. I use it before bedtime and layer CeraVe night cream on top after it's absorbed. I tried it without the cream the first two nights, and while it wasn't very drying, I just need more moisture than it provides on its own. I have super sensitive, visibly reactive skin that still suffers from routine breakouts despite being in my 40's. I had terrible reactions to previous retinol products I tried over the years - extreme dryness, burning, break outs, you name it - so I gave up on it ages ago. I just started developing a few fine lines in the last year so that weren't responding to anything that used to work for me and have been finding that my skin is starting to really need way more moisture than it ever did before, so after trying what felt like everything non-retinol that cost less than a car payment, I finally decided to give this a try. Very happy that I did! My skin is looking better than it has in years.

I was reluctant to spend quite this much on a moisturiser but bought it on a recommendation from a dermatologist. It cleared up most of my issues and my skin was visibly bouncier and clearer. I will probably repurchase it for the moment, but will continue to search for a more affordable option which gives me the same results.
