Paulas Choice CLINICAL 1% Retinol Treatment is a potent and uniquely formulated retinol formula that hydrates and delivers anti-aging benefits to the skin. Its creamy lotion texture rests lightly on the skin while the retinol quickly penetrates into the top layer to smooth and firm skin, boost cell regeneration, stimulate collagen production, refine pore size and even out skin tone. Unlike other retinol-heavy products that may irritate the skin, this cream offers the nourishing and anti-irritating vitamin C, licorice and oat extract to leave your skin smooth and well-soothed.
Key Ingredients:
- Retinol: helps stimulate cell production
- Vitamin C: reduces the appearance of brown spots, inflammation and irritation
- Licorice Extract: relieves irritated skin
- Oat Extract: helps soothe and heal skin
Key Benefits:
- Advanced hydrating complex absorbs quickly
- Diminishes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
- Lightweight lotion texture
- Offers a powerful 1% retinol concentration
Limit initial use to three times per week; gradually increase frequency to every other night, then finally each evening as tolerated. Apply a pea-sized amount after cleansing and/or toning. Carefully avoid the lips, eyes and corners of the eyes. Can be used on the perimeter of the orbital bone if desired. Do not apply to eyelids. To minimize irritation, try combining with 2-3 drops of Resist Moisture Renewal Oil Booster.
May be applied at the same time as your AHA or BHA exfoliant, but pay attention to how your skin responds. If you notice signs of sensitivity, apply your AHA or BHA exfoliant in the morning and this treatment at night or reduce frequency of application of Clinical 1% Retinol Treatment. For daytime, follow with a broad-spectrum product rated SPF 15 or greater.
Once open, most effective when used within 12 months.

Wow! Love this!
This is one of my new favorite products. I've been using it for about two months now. My skin looks smoother and more nourished. I was worried that it would irritate my skin, but this is so well-formulated that I'm able to use it nightly with no issues. The vitamin C and peptides seem to work overnight. The first time I used it, I woke up with smooth, glowing, and soothed skin. Over time the retinol has seemed to take effect and my discoloration from old acne scars and fine lines have really diminished. My skin is acne prone and I was previously using Differin gel, and worried that switching to PC's retinol would cause an issue. But I actually find this product to be more effective at keeping my acne at bay than the Differin gel. Love the product, love the price. It's definitely on my reorder list. I'm getting a lot of compliments on my skin lately, so I'm telling everyone about it!

It breaks me out...
It is greasy and breaks me out. If you have oily or acne prone skin, it probably not for you.

Anti-Aging
I use this product 3x a week and have had no adverse reactions. I wait 20 minutes and then apply a moisturizer ,if I feel my skin needs it. I have heard so many people swear my Paula's products and now I understand why. This product makes softens lines and makes me look more glowy.

Perfection
Love how my skin looks and feels when I use this product. If you're sensitive it might be too strong but I can tolerate it just fine.

Impressed!
I was using another prestige retinol but the price was too much. I've been using this for about a week and love it! My skin is used to retinoids, so I started using this for three days on, one day off. I haven't seen any major flaking, and any hormonal breakouts have gone away quickly. I have a few tiny comedones in my forehead and nose, but am chalking them up to hormones or purging. I'll update this review if they don't go away. But, so far, I'm pleased!

Arrived either empty or with a broken pump
I'm extremely disappointed in the packaging for this product. I received it and it is either empty or the pump is broken - no product will come out no matter how long I try. I expected better packaging for $58.

Great option for retinol
It's been years since I've used a retinol and decided to have another go at it. I generally like PC products so thought to give this one a try. Directions are specific to use only a pea size amount. Using once a week so far to ease into it and very minimal peeling/flaking so far.

Rock-star Retinol!
I really like this retinol product by Paula's Choice, it has great ingredients that help with all phases of repairing sun-damaged skin. Retinol to speed cell production, vitamin C to brighten skin tone and licorice to lighten sun spots. It is a light creamy texture and it absorbs in very well. I only need to use 1/2 pump of product. At 1% retinol, it packs a punch, so I used it every other night until I could tolerate it nightly but wow, my skin has really gotten clear and smooth! My menopausal acne along the jawline is also greatly reduced. I find my skin is so nice, I use much less foundation! All my friends and even my husband comments on how nice my skin looks!

gentle on skin
I am finding that as I get older, a lot of products burn my face or make it feel dry and tight. What I love about paula's choice items is that they are so concious of the ingredients they put in skincare, I have gone through 3 bottles of this and never had any dryness ot tightness or soreness. really good, well researched products.
