Hi jenny im new to ur channel but love ur review on this product. I was searching the internet for infor on vitamin c. I have rosacea skin and am just begjning to switch to paulas choice of products. Is it advisable to use this outside of retinol? Im currently using paulas choise anti wrinkle with 0.1% retinol
Hi, Welcome to My Channel! Thank you so much for watching my video and taking the time to write! I would use this in the morning. And then use the Paula's choice 0.1% Retinol at night. That is a great product too! Does that make sense? It is advisable not to mix Retinol with other powerful skincare ingredients. Hence, it is best to just use the Retinol at night with moisturiser and then go to bed. In the morning, cleanse your face, put this on with a moisturiser + sunscreen SPF 50+. I did suffer from Rosacea myself, Vitamin B is great for Rosacea. Paula's Choice Vitamin B products are fantastic for Rosacea skin. But start a little bit at a time and see how your skin reacts. I hope this is easy to follow. Feel free to ask any questions. I am more than happy to help out. All the best! If it is not too much to ask, please do subscribe to My Channel as it really encourages me to continue to make these videos. Love from NZ! 💕
Could you put this ontop of a traditional vitamin C product? Like an l-ascorbic acid? I have heard this is effective to do but then have heard it’s not. Very curious. I have sensitive skin and can only use a 10% l-ascorbic acid and would love the additional antioxidants of the Paula’s choice.
Hi, how are you? Thank you so much for watching my video. This super anti oxidant with Vit C by Paula's choice, in fact, is great as a secondary serum. It is what I personally use it for. I have sensitive skin too, so I do understand the frustration sometimes. This particular serum is safe to put on top of a Vit C or Niacinamide serum. I personally haven't experienced any irritation doing that, if anything, it just adds the extra anti aging benefits from all the other ingredients in this extraordinary serum. Do make sure that the L'ascorbic serum is dry before you put this on top, sometimes different textures can cause a bit of balling, if you know what I mean. Hope this helps. More than happy to answer any questions. All the best!
Hi Jenny, you have very beautiful skin. Very smooth and firm. Would you contribute your beautiful and youthful skin from using this super antioxidant serum? I just placed an order for this serum, thanks to you.
Hi, how are you? Thank you so much for your very kind compliments about my skin. I am very touched. My skin hasn't always looked like that, at one point it was looking extremely dull, lifeless, texturised and heavily pigmented. That was when I completely overhauled my skincare routine and immersed myself into 'clinical skincare'. I want to assure you there is definitely hope & transformation for your skin as well. This beautiful super antioxidant serum would be one of the products that helped my skin. The Paula's Choice .01% (maroon tube) and .03% Retinol (green tube), I highly recommend as well. If your skin can tolerate it, add some AHA into your skincare routine. Make sure to start everything at 'low strength'. Hope this helps. More than happy to answer questions. All the best!
Hi Dara, Welcome to My channel! Thank you so much for watching my video. I can't see any harm in putting this on top of a AHA/BHA toner. Most toners are 'mild' formulations and are formulated to prep the skin for better absorption of skin actives. The Vit C in the form of THD in this product is a lot more stable and it is not intense. I can't see any contradiction with this 2 products. As with anything, keep an eye on your skin's reaction. Should there be any pink/redness developing, definitely stop doing it. All our skin is different. You are the best judge of your own skin and trust your own gut feelings sometimes. This is a 'gentle' product full of anti oxidants, hence great for day time use. I hope this helps. More than happy to answer any questions. All the best! 💕
Hi, you are most welcomed to ask me any questions. I am more than happy to answer them. Yes, you can safely use this product on top of your Retinol serum. In fact, I have started doing that myself recently - I put this on top of my Retinol (I am currently using the Kiehl's Daily Retinol) and it is working brilliantly on my skin, brought clarity, brightness & firmness. Together with the Retinol, it seems to work like magic on my skin. This serum doesn't contain L' ascorbic Acid, it is THD, which is a much more stable form of Vit C, hence it can mix with Retinol quite nicely. I tend to leave L'ascorbic Acid alone as it is very unstable and volatile. So, yes, go ahead. Do make sure that your Retinol has dried up a bit before you layer this on top. Hope this helps. All the best!

Hi Jenny, I use this in the morning. Can I add an AHA/BHA toner with this, the Peach Slices toner? I use tretinoin at night.
