Paula's Choice is a skin care brand that I've loved for years now and one that I've always been able to count on to give me the results that they promise in formulations that are backed by science. For me, that's probably the most important thing about skin care. Recently, after they did a rebranding of their booster line in modern, colorful packaging, I've been trying out a couple of PC's boosters and revisiting one that I've loved in the past, so I wanted to share them with you guys.

For more on Boosters and why they're a great addition to your skin care routine as well as my thoughts on these three that I've been using, keep reading!

For quite a while now, Paula's Choice has been a skin care brand that I've consistently reached for when I want products that contain evidence based ingredients and always give me results. Being that I love Paula's Choice and I love masking, I was beyond stoked when I saw that the brand was releasing two new masks - the Pore Clarifying Gel Mask* and the Rehydrating Moisture Mask*. Because I definitely like different kinds of masks to give me skin a little extra help when it needs it, I was really excited to try out both of these.

I suspect that a lot of people probably have the same reaction that I did when I first head about using acids to exfoliate my skin, which was visions of chemical burns and basically my skin falling off. Luckily for my skin, I took a closer look at these types of products and found that not only are well formulated acid exfoliants less irritating and more gentle than traditional physical exfoliants, but they've completely changed my skin. Honestly, while my skin care routine has gotten pretty intense over the years, I can say without a moment's hesitation that regular use of acid exfoliants has been the biggest factor in changing my skin for the better over the past few years.

Though one of their products has been in my rotation for years, I recently had the opportunity to try out a whole bunch of different Paula's Choice AHA & BHA Exfoliants* and I wanted to take the opportunity to really talk about the two different types of acids, how they work, and who could really benefit from having them in their skin care routine.

I tend to avoid products for acne for a couple of reasons. The first is that, while I am prone to breakouts, I don't actually have acneic skin so I always figured that I could deal with my breakouts without using acne products. The second is that reason why I wanted to deal with my breakouts another way, and that's that a lot of acne products I've used in the past damaged my moisture barrier and left my skin dry, irritated and sensitive with the texture of alligator skin. Anyone else?

Anyway, I was eager to try out the Paula's Choice CLEAR Acne Trial Kit* for a few reasons. The first was that the season change was having an effect on my skin and I was finding myself with more small breakouts than usual. The second was that I heard some good reviews about a couple of these products from people that I trust about skin care. And finally, I just love Paula's Choice and haven't found many products from the brand that I haven't enjoyed. 

Anyway, for my thoughts on this line of products, keep reading.

As I try more and more products from Paula's Choice, the brand is quickly moving towards the top of my favorites list. It's been ages since I fell in love with the Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Exfoliant, which I actually just recently repurchased, and I'm still consistently using the RESIST C15 Super Booster as a part of my morning skin care every day as well as trying out some products that I've never used before from the brand. Most recently, I've been testing out the RESIST Omega+ Complex* and I'm super excited to review it for you guys!

I feel like every brand that I enjoy or that I've been dying to try has a product or two that is 100% on my radar and that I want to get my hands on. When it comes to Paula's Choice, admittedly there are a few of those, but for quite some time now one of those products has been the RESIST C15 Super Booster*, which I've heard really great things about. In the past year, I've started using Vitamin C every day as a part of my skin care routine, and it was completely ridiculous that I'd never tried this. 

Keep reading for my review!

In the past couple of years, I've gotten the chance to try out a handful of products from Paula's Choice and I've so consistently been impressed by the product that I'm pretty much game to try anything the brand has on the table. Recently, you may have read my review of the Paula's Choice Radiance Renewal Mask*, which I absolutely loved and have still be reaching for a couple of times a week as an overnight treatment. At the same time as the launch of that product, the company also released the Paula's Choice RESIST Brightening Essence* - which, because of the type of product that it is, took me a little longer to test.

Paula's Choice is one of those names in skin care that has a reputation for having really good formulations that genuinely show results. It's for that reason that I'm always more than happy to test out anything from the brand, and so far there has only been one thing that I tried that just really didn't work for me. Recently, when I got the chance to sample a couple of new products from the brand, I was more than happy to jump right in with both feet! The first new product that I'm going to review for you is the Paula's Choice RADIANCE Renewal Mask*. Since an overnight mask is one of my favorite skin care products and I've had such success with some others in the past, this was definitely being held to a pretty high standard.

So, how'd it go? Keep reading for more!

I've tried a LOT of skin care this year. Seriously, I feel like this has been an insane year of trying out new skin care products in my life. That said, my skin is currently better than it has ever been and constantly getting closer and closer to the skin I've always wanted. Nothing better than that, am I right? Sometimes I feel like the biggest part of finding the skin care routine that works for you is going to involve a lot of trial and error, and I feel like that's what 2015 has been about for me. And trust me, there have been some serious winners that got injected into the routine this year. Every single one of these has been new-to-me this year and I still use all of them consistently!

Keep reading to take a look at my skin care favorites for 2015!

You know those cult products that pretty much everyone is obsessed with and you've never heard a bad thing about, so clearly you absolutely have to have it? For me, the Paula's Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid has been on that list for ages now and I just never got around to ordering it. And then... I did! I picked this up on Birchbox.ca while it had free shipping because.. well, who doesn't prefer free shipping when they're trying out a new product. Now, I've been using this for about a month now, generally only at night before I go to bed, and I'm ready to give you my thoughts on it.

Keep reading for a more in depth look!

Now that I'm in my 30s, I'm definitely seeing the effects of aging (and the fact that I took such crappy care of my skin before I was in my 30s) and it's pretty annoying. For me, the biggest sign that I'm not as young as I used to be is the fine lines I get around my eyes, specifically on the inner part of my eyelid and right under my lower lashline. Anyone else have this same issue that I do? I'm pretty certain that a lot of people do. Anyway, even my favorite eye creams don't really make any difference when it comes to those pain in the ass lines, but recently I've been using the Paula's Choice RESIST Skin Firming Line Minimizer* as the last step in my nighttime skincare routine - and I am pretty much amazed.
