Radiant skin and fewer wrinkles: Eline shares her favorite care products

“Facial care: the internet is full of it. People swear by certain brands and products, but I always used everything mixed up. Because, yes, did I ever see a real difference? Those complicated serums puzzled me: should they be used before bed, under the day cream, or not, and er, what’s it good for? Too many to sort out so I never started it.

‘You really notice a difference’

Until a friend recently texted me very enthusiastically about Paula’s Choice Exfoliant cream, a cream that contains 5 percent glycolic acid: perfect for combating blemishes and skin aging. “Order it Eline, you will really notice the difference. Start rubbing slowly, because your skin has to get used to it,” she warned. I had to have that cream too. But hey, I took that warning about slowing down with a grain of salt.

I shouldn’t have done that, because for three days I walked around as if I had an allergic reaction. After a few days, my skin was smoother—yes. But I would have preferred something a little quieter.

In order

Anyway. Since then, I’ve been hooked on the cream and the rest of Paula’s Choice. I also know exactly what to have and in which order to use it. The result? Radiant skin and fewer lines. Use it to your advantage.

1. Resist Anti-Aging Hydrating Facial Cleanser

You use this every evening and morning. Slightly pump, rub and rinse with water.

Yes, I want this facial cleanser

2. Resist Anti-Aging 5% AHA Exfoliant

So this is the cream with 5 percent glycolic acid that I was tipped off. Tip: build up use gradually. For example, start with twice a week in the evening, after cleansing your face and before applying your night cream. If that goes well, you can start using the exfoliant every other day and then every night. And reduce the frequency of use if you get irritated skin.

To order? That’s possible here

3. C15 Super Booster

My favorite because it makes my skin glow. A few times a week I put a few drops in my day cream.

I want to try too

4. Resist Anti-Aging Skin Restoring Day Cream SPF 50

Day cream with factor 50! Nice cream, absorbs quickly and you also look fresh right away.

This cream looks delicious

5. Resist Night Cream

Lovely soft cream to end your day. It comes in a pump (unlike the day cream that comes in a tube) and is very similar to the Exfoliant; so be careful with lubrication.

I want to order it

One final note: what’s important to me is that Paula’s Choice is not tested on animals; something that should no longer be possible. They do not claim to be vegan, but are transparent and specific about the origin of their products. That gives a nice feeling.
