4.9Pore Normalizing Cleanser
  • “The first one that I love was pore normalizing cleanser from Paula's Choice”0:55–0:57
  • “It's a hydrating cleanser, but it's also got BHA or salicylic acid, which is basically the best exfoliator for us and specifically for oily skin”2:02–2:06
  • “It penetrates into the pore and almost unclogs that pore, which is exactly what we want”2:11–2:16
  • “There's no AHAs in this particular product. There's no witch hazel. There's no denatured alcohol. There's no fragrance. There's no essential oils”2:20–2:24
  • “The surfactants that they've used are quite gentle”2:31–2:31
  • “It's also quite a hydrating product, so it's got moisturizers such as arginine, butylene glycol, and glycerin in it as well, which is excellent”2:43–2:45
  • “Very simple formula, but I love it and if I had oily prone skin or any of my friends do, this is the one that I would recommend”2:51–2:54

4.2RESIST Perfectly Balanced Foaming Cleanser
  • “I really liked this”5:23–5:26

  • “I like to use this in the morning, not as much in the evening cuz I felt like it wasn't breaking down my makeup and my SPF as much as like a true foaming cleanser”5:41–5:45

  • “If they sent me this one again, I would certainly use it”6:07–6:11

Brand note

Paula's Choice is a research-driven skincare brand that focuses on targeted, active-based formulas for specific concerns like acne, aging, and sensitivity. The Clinical PRO Retinaldehyde Dual-Retinoid Treatment is a standout for those wanting a potent retinoid that simplifies routines and delivers clear, smooth skin over time, though it comes at a higher price. The brand's strength is its evidence-backed approach, but some products can be pricey for what they offer, and not every formula justifies the cost.
