**************************************
I got samples (at $1.00 each) to try first. Absolutely loved this and I tried dozens of sunscreens.
Light tint - appropriate for my fair skin
Satiny finish; slightly mat and compatible with my other makeup
Feels light; not greasy. Stays on and no need for frequent blotting.
I always order from PC and place a large enough order to qualify for free shipping. As I am in Canada; I pay $5.00 for brokerage fees. No other shipping charges.
All PC products are not animal tested.

I have to agree with the above review. I've been looking for the right concealer to use for under eye that would not crease with my physical SPF. This summer I decided to give this a try, as I had 3 samples.
I was so pleasantly surprised! No creases, and it gave me the right coverage! That's 2 in 1!
My skin looked natural, hydrated, and it was protected from the sun UV rays!
I think I will be ordering a full size with my next Paula's Choice order. |

I recently received 3 samples of Paula's Choice mineral sunscreens and like them all, but especially the Resist Super Light which has a light tint but is ok on my skin.
The 3 samples I got are all rated SPF30 but they each have differing percentages of zinc oxide alone or a combo with titanium dioxide. Does anyone know how it's possible to achieve the same SPF with different amounts of the active sunscreen ? |

| I have heard a lot of positive comments about PC' products. I would definitely try to get the samples of its sunscreens to try. Do you know what other products of PC that you can recommand? |

I highly recommend the 2% BHA. I use the Clear version (regular) and it is very effective. I apply with fingertips so it lasts longer than with a cotton pad. There is not very many BHA options in Canada unless you order online.
There is other products I have from PC that I like:
Sunless tanning gel, Tinted moisturizer with spf, skin recovery toner, AHA products, body butter, pressed powder, etc.
I am trying her retinol so I am on the fence still. I also purchased her 9% BHA and would not repurchase.
The must have products for me are the SS and 2% BHA. |

| Thank you. I have put the 2% BHA liquid on my nephew's acne and it works pretty good. I took a look again her whole product line and thinking would like to try something anti-aging as well as the tinted foundation with spf. |

I agree with Autumn - sunscreens and 2% BHA products are really good. I'm also trying the retinol serum as it was a gift with purchase and I think it could be a bit stronger, but my skin is accustomed to retinol. PC has a 1% retinol booster, so you might want to consider that if you are looking for a more active anti-ager. I also purchased the 9% BHA and expected it to work faster, but it seems very mild.
PC's customer service is outstanding and they back their product line with exchanges and refunds if you have any adverse reactions. Also, they go to great lengths to answer questions about their products vis a vis your specific needs. |

I would sign up for emails as PC always has specials going. Right now it is 30% off SS and free shipping on everything.
Code is SUNSCREEN2015 for 30% off sunscreens.
I also like that PC has sample packs of almost everything. It is very hard to find samples of SS anywhere. The 2% BHA comes in a small travel size bottle.
I found the 9% BHA did not really absorb well (like the 2% does). Also the container is tricky getting the amount you need.
If you have any questions, definitely email customer service. They can answer your questions and offer suggestions. |
