Paula’s Choice Top 10 Skincare Products That Won’t Break the Bank

The Paula’s Choice skincare line has something for everyone, regardless of skin type or budget. In this blog post, we’ll be sharing our top 10 Paula’s Choice products that won’t break the bank. Included in our list are both dupe-able and cult-favourite products that give you the most bang for your buck! I’ve tried several of their products and can attest to their efficacy.

More About The Brand

In 2021 Unilever acquired Paula’s Choice from TA Associates. The brand has been since placed in its prestige division that includes Murad, Tatcha, Kate Somerville and Dermalogica.

Paula’s Choice was founded as a natural skin care line in 1995 by clinical dermatologist Paula Begoun, after years of research and in 1997 brings PC to Australia. She developed the brand after being disappointed with ineffective drugstore products that didn’t live up to the claims of their labels. Since then, her products have become a cult favourite among beauty enthusiasts and skin care junkies alike. The team specifically designed this line for adult skin, which is more sensitive and less resilient than younger skin.

I am so excited that Unilever and Paula’s Choice are joining forces, and I want to thank Vasiliki and the Unilever team for believing in us, our mission and our values. With Unilever we can build on our work and vision spanning 26 years of creating brilliant products, and by giving people the self-confidence that comes from knowing they are taking the best care of their skin possible.
