Even if you’re not a 12-step skincare routine girly, it’s likely that you’ve seen the brand Paula’s Choice at the top of several beauty award lists.
This is largely due to the brand’s best-selling product – its 2 per cent BHA Liquid Exfoliant – which is revered for its pore-minimising abilities, creating a cult following for the skincare brand.
However, the always-innovating brand has just launched two new products that may just jump to the top of your to-buy list.
As part of its expanding peptide range, Paula’s Choice has now introduced a new moisturiser and a gloss lip balm.
The Pro-Collagen Peptide Plumping Moisturiser is designed to hydrate the skin, leading to visibly plumper, smoother skin powered by a three-times pro-collagen peptide complex that works beneath the skin’s surface to support collagen production and restore balance. Basically, if you’re looking to breathe a bit of renewed energy and life into your skin, this is the product for you.
The three peptides used in the new products include Hexapeptide-5, which boosts the skin’s hydration levels; Oligopeptide-1, to support natural collagen levels for firmer skin; and Tridecapeptide-1 to smooth fine lines and plump the skin. Bio-fermented hyaluronic acid is another key ingredient helping to deliver intense hydration to the skin.
Paula’s Choice Pro-Collagen Peptide Gloss Balm, on the other hand, is a lip balm that not only looks good while wearing it, but it also works to rejuvenate and transform your lips with each swipe.
This balm is different from traditional plumpers as it works to enhance fullness, smooth lines and deliver hydration - all without the sting you can often get from regular plumpers. This is due to a different pro-collagen peptide complex and nourishing oils that create an instant plumper look, but leave your lips feeling soft and supple with its 24-hour hydration too.
The peptide complex used in the balm includes Tridecapeptide-1 to plump lips; Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 to boost collagen; and Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38 to prevent thinning and increase hydration. Other ingredients in the balm include plum seed oil, hyaluronic acid and shea butter to look in all-day moisture.
