A few weeks ago we were lucky enough to be invited to a breakfast to celebrate Skincare guru’s Paula’s Choice 20 years in the business.

We were treated to a delicious breakfast at The Standard Hotel, in the Meatpacking district ,while listening to Paula speak about her favorite products and why she has been able to succeed in this very competitive and sometimes saturated skincare market.

Her favorite products include RESIST Vitamin C Treatment for brown spots ($55), The Broad – Spectrum SPF 43 Sunscreen Spray ($25), Clinical K Treatment Cloths ($32), and The SUN 365 Self Tanning Concentrate ($18)

One of her newest and best selling products now is the Resist Hyaluronic Acid Booster ($45). It works well on all skin types and visibly plumps skin with an infusion of a good dose of hyaluronic acid and sodium hyaluronic to diminish the appearance of wrinkles.

For people with acne prone skin or a problem with blackheads Paula’s Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BPA Liquid ($26) contains 2 percent salicylic acid (BHA) and has a pH that allows it to unclog pores and keep breakouts and blackheads from happening. It is fragrance free so if you if have sensitive skin or allergies it has proven to improve skin’s tone and texture.

Paula’s belief that quality effective skincare should be attainable and affordable is a major key to her success and longevity in the beauty business.

We were sent home with a bag full of goodies to try for ourselves including a bottle of Veuve Clicquot to celebrate the occasion.
