Paula's Choice has been a staple of mine for the past 10 years. Their CS and return policy is excellent and I've always had a wonderful experience. If you have any issues just chat or call and they will make it right!

I like paulas choice products! They are super nice. Some of them are overpriced in my opinion. I wish they were more affordable. Their shipping is usually very fast though :)

They advertise as 100% Hassle-free Money Back Guarantee. I work in marketing and this is deeply wrong and misleading. If their product gives you a reaction, you will need to spend your own money sending the product back. You will also not be refunded original shipping charges (which is very normal but what is wrong is you can no longer advertise it as 100% Money Back Guarantee, just a Money Back Guarantee) so there is a risk for trying. Additionally, they did not respond to my original email to customer service inquiring about how to return. I ended up calling customer service and the representative sounded young and unprofessional like she did not like her job. I have not had this poor level of customer service in a long time and will no longer use or recommend this brand. Update: After trying to get in touch with them via email to no avail last week, I received a full refund after posting this review, but I decided to leave this up because their policy information continues to list misleading information. They said they treat reactions differently, however, this was not mentioned during my call with them when I inquired about returning the product that gave me a reaction. Update 2: I want to correct for the record that I did not receive multiple emails or even an email response from my original email to Paula's Choice. After posting a negative review, I received one email notifying me that they refunded my order. That email did not warrant a response. In refunding my order, they hoped I would change my review. I found it uncouth that they would even request this. This is very dishonest. My problem is not with paying for shipping or anything related to shipping or return costs. My problem is with the misleading verbiage in their policies and their blatant dishonesty which continues to be a theme here. Update 3: As of December 21st, 2021, 9:30 PM EST, under section Authorization for Returns on Paula's Choice's website, it still states "We're sorry, but shipping fees are not refundable." The below updated statement is incongruent with what is written on their own website.

Thank you for your feedback and reply Jasmine. We're sorry for the trouble you've had in getting in touch with us. We have sent emails to you, however we have no responses-- please feel free to contact us at [email protected]. As shipping companies are a 3rd party (rather than a company we control or own), there is a fee to use their service in order to ship items to customers, or for customers to ship items back to us. We often offer Free Shipping in order to cover these costs on our orders, however we do not cover return shipping on the way back, or offer a shipping label (which is why we do not remove any type of "return" fee from the refund amount). In any case, we are so sorry to hear that you had a reaction. There are many elements that can increase sensitivity or cause irritation. For example, it may be a specific ingredient in the formula to which you are allergic, or active ingredient which is simply too potent for your skin. Sometimes it's the other products used at the same time, or even external/environmental factors. We apologize for any confusion overall and we're glad we were able to provide a full refund. We also want to clarify that, as a standard procedure, we do refund shipping paid on the original order once the order is returned to us. We would be happy to explain in more detail if you would be interested however we understand if not. Lastly, whenever we see a negative review posted, we aim to turn each and every client's experience into a positive one. In full transparency and all fairness, if we're able to do so, we do ask that reviews are updated to reflect the resolution and include the entire picture. However it is completely up to the customer and we respect their decision. Thanks again and we hope you're able to consider a second chance at some point in the future.

I recently chatted with a Paula's Choice representative regarding if it was fine to layer Ultra-Light Super Antioxidant Concentrate Serum and Anti-Aging Clear Skin Hydrator with the C25 and Niacinamide Boosters because I was having my reservations due to the Ultra-Light Super Antioxidant Concentrate Serum and the Anti-Aging Clear Skin Hydrator containing several Vitamin C and Niacinamide ingredients. She verified my initial thoughts that If I didn't get any irritation then I'd be safe to layer those products. She is very knowledgable and nice; unlike other skincare experts who really are not. I must say that I've had undying love for this company since I discovered them back in 2017 when I was having a bad acne breakout, i mean my pimples were bullet-sized to say the least and the Clear line helped big time! I've been a PC Junkie since then; i mean, nobody, nobody, nobody but Paula's Choice can make a Gel to Cream Cleanser that has 0 irritating ingredients for Oily skin and doesn't clog your pores!!! Love Paula and Paula's choice forever and ever.

I have Paula’s choice for years. BUT since she sold the company I have had major issues with getting product. They are constantly out of stock and can not tell you when they will have it back in stock. I am SO done with that. I am searching for a new line of skin care to go to. Very sad that they have totally ruined the company

We understand how frustrating this can be and while there are global supply chain challenges, we are working diligently to get all items back in stock as soon as possible. This is not our primary customer service platform so we apologize for the delay. If you have a specific product that is still out of stock, that you would like us to check on, please email us at [email protected].

Paulas choice is really amazing. I haven’t used all their products but you really need to know how to layer your actives and your skin type. The bha and aha exfoliants are just great for my skin. I have oily skin and my pores have improved ever since using paulas choice. Tbh, I use different cleansers but toners, moisturizers, active ingredients are all paulas choice.

Customer service treats you like you’re not a human. Will send a cold response with no emotion. Frequently out of stock on essential products. Auto replenishment is cancelled with no explanation. It blames you for the cancel but doesn’t tell you what you need to resolve. After research you find product is out of stock. Is it hard to tell me that? Lost a customer. Edit: took them 5 months to respond to my review and then claimed my review is fake. It isn’t. I sent proof to TP. Now I’m going to make sure I review them accurately everywhere I can find. My recommendation: stay away from this garbage company that will do anything to look good while screwing their customers.
