FAQ
What is Barrier Repair Moisturizer?
RESIST Barrier Repair Moisturizer is a powerful hydrating formula that visibly improves fine lines, wrinkles, dull skin tone and loss of firmness with a blend of proven anti-wrinkle ingredients.
<br><br>
Whatβs the difference between RESIST Barrier Repair Moisturizer and RESIST Intensive Repair Cream?
The biggest difference between these two anti-aging moisturizers is their textures. RESIST Barrier Repair Moisturizer has the texture of a light cream thatβs best for normal or slightly dry skin. RESIST Intensive Repair Cream has a richer texture, which is ideal for dry or very dry skin. Both formulas contain an effective mix of ingredients to combat signs of aging, including 0.01% retinol.β―So, you should choose based on your skin type and texture preference.
<br><br>
How is the RESIST Barrier Repair Moisturizer different from other Paulaβs Choice retinol products?
RESIST Barrier Repair Moisturizer is a light cream thatβs ideal if youβre concerned with wrinkles and other signs of aging. This moisturizer combines retinol, peptides, ceramides and antioxidants, perfect ingredients for normal to dry skin or even if combo skin thatβs on the drier side. The percentage of retinol needed for efficacy is generally between 0.01% and 1%, which is quite a range, but further proof of just how powerful retinol is! Learn more about the different percentages of retinol in Paulaβs Choice products.
<br><br>
Can I use Paulaβs Choice RESIST Barrier Repair Moisturizer with other retinol products?
Absolutely! Like anything, though, it varies on your specific skin care goals and how your skin tolerates retinol. If you plan to use multiple retinol products, it may be best to apply one in the morning and another at night (at leastβ―inβ―the beginning). Be sure to monitor your skin for any signs of irritation (like redness or flaking) and adjust usage accordingly. If you find your skin does not tolerate bothβ―a retinolβ―moisturizer and booster, serum or treatment, consider adding a product like our RESIST Super Antioxidant Concentrate Serum, which is retinol-free.
<br><br>
Is Paulaβs Choice RESIST Barrier Repair Moisturizer suitable for those with sensitive skin?
Yes, this fragrance-free moisturizer is suitable for sensitive skin. Itβs free of irritants and contains a low amount of retinol, which is good for those with sensitive skin who want to try using a retinol product. It also contains plenty of soothing ingredients including licorice, green tea and chamomile extracts.
<br><br>
Is Paulaβs Choice RESIST Barrier Repair Moisturizerβ―suitableβ―for dehydrated, acne-prone skin?
Yes, RESIST Barrier Repair Moisturizer complements anti-acne routines.
<br><br>
Are RESIST Barrier Repair Moisturizer and PC4Men Nighttime Repair the same formula? Their ingredient lists look the same.
The PC4Men Nighttime Repair isβ―actually identicalβ―toβ―our RESISTβ―Barrier Repair Moisturizer with Retinol but packaged as part of the PC4Men line. We knew this hydrating formula would be a hit in both collections because of its weightless quality and positive effects on all skin types. Like the Barrier Repair Moisturizer, PC4Men Nighttime Repair also delivers several proven anti-aging ingredients (including retinol) for younger, healthier, stronger skin.
<br><br>
How do you use Barrier Repair Moisturizer?
Apply this moisturizer morning and/or night, after cleansing, toning and exfoliating. If using other serums or treatments, layer them from thinnest to thickest texture and make sure to always finish with sunscreen rated 30+ for daytime.
<br><br>
What retinol percentage is in Paulaβs Choice RESIST Barrier Repair Moisturizer?
RESIST Barrier Repair Moisturizer contains 0.01% retinol, which is on the low end, but is still an effective strength of this powerhouse ingredient.
<br><br>
Can I use this retinol cream around my eyes?
Yes, RESIST Barrier Repair Moisturizer can be used around your eye area, just be mindful to avoid your lash line.
<br><br>
I keep depressing the pump, but no product is coming out.
