Paula's Choice Haul

I placed my first order with the Paula's Choice Australia website last week. I know! I said I was on a spending ban, but I was going to buy these sooner or later anyway, and the site had a 50% off everything special, so it just made sense. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it, anyway!



Here we see the:
☚ Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Exfoliating Gel
☚ Resist Intensive Wrinkle Repair Retinol Serum
☚ set of 6 mini makeup brushes

I found both the exfoliant and the retinol serum really easy to fit into my skin care routine when I tried the sample sachets, and was also very impressed with their performance. I bought the brush set because I've been wanting to experiment more with using brushes to apply makeup, rather than those little sponges you get with most makeup sets. This set is perfect because it has 6 different types of brush in it. Turns out when you try and use a lip brush to apply eyeshadow, it doesn't work too well. Who knew? シ

My experience dealing with Paula's Choice was all-around a positive one. The site was easy to navigate. The descriptions are very precise and some products even have videos explaining their purpose. The items came in 2 days - fast! And no worries about the packaging - they were all wrapped in bubble wrap and finished off nicely with tissue paper:



I would definitely order from Paula's Choice Australia again. They continuously have specials on different items, free shipping offers, etc. The service is fast and efficient, and they take care with the products.
Last but not least, an action shot of the packages falling off the windowsill!:


blooper time!
