Busting Skincare Myths With Paula Begoun

[@imscanon]

I've been using her stuff since she created it. I was even a test marketer for her products. Only thing I've washed my face with since. I do highly recommend her products. I'm 54 and people think I'm 35 or less all the time. Trust her.

[@principeturandot4593]

Well now... these are two of my favorite gurus - Paula AND Nadine! I trust very few people about the science and facts of beauty products, but the two of you I trust wholeheartedly.

[@jillgarittagoatgirl-expose2759]

Principe Turandot ...Yeah!! There's way too many zombie brain dead KZbinrs that recommend the worst possible regimens!! Scrubbing, scrubbing, scrubbing, crazy irritating masks, pure tea tree oil. And even neosporin!! And even scrubbing with pure sugar!!😱.. My skin would fall off if I listened 2 the craziness!!

[@tanyariley3049]

Principe Turandot I totally agree!!!

[@VeronicaKaneti]

16 minutes too long? Wish the video was longer! I could listen to you and Paula for hours. xxx

[@lol365]

Paula is the truth! I could listen to her for hours. I've been using her products, nearly exclusively, for years now and can attest to the fact that they work - 10 years later and people are still surprised at my age but I live by Paula's skincare principles.

[@michaelmike3418]

lol365 she's full of runny shit! Bottoxed up and fillered up to the limits / every product is shit/ so why does she make her own crap. And I work in aesthetics. Simply another lulu or more Cher👍

[@janetmarceau2821]

@@michaelmike3418 Why don't you keep your nasty, hateful comments to yourself. You sound like such an ass. Since you THINK you look so much better, put a picture up, state your age, and what skincare you use!! Never mind....the picture would be fake!

[@llkoolbean4935]

I've been a faithful fan consumer for decades. I read her beauty Bible in my twenties and threw out all irritating products and never looked back. I still struggle with my skin but I know what to do to keep it healthy, because she armed me with science backed knowledge of ingredients. Thanks Paula and Nadine for sharing this.

[@Hippie6400]

I could have listen to you two all day. I personally don't think the video was long enough ?

[@NadineBaggott]

OMG it took me six hours to edit it down ha ha ha XXX

[@diamond_wild]

Not long enough 😍

[@mnktfn]

Debbie Absolutely! I didn't​ know Paula, just her product range. But she seems like a no BS woman. I could listen to the two for hours. I only wondered about the air tight containetrs as some of the products shown seemed like pipette dispensed serums...

[@lol365]

mnk tfn yes - some Paula's Choice products are in pipettes dispenser systems which is simply down to the products being liquid. But Paula's bottles and droppers have an interesting stopper in the top that drastically cuts down the size of the mouth of the bottle, thereby cutting down exposure to air.

[@mnktfn]

lol365 That's good to know! Thanks for the info. I might try them now that I know that ;)

[@mandyclarkson2579]

I have been using the Paula's choice 1% retinol for 6 months now. Omg, my skin has changed so much. My frown lines has disappeared and no more cystic spots on my jawline. Love love love it! ❤️❤️👍🏼👍🏼

[@courtneywest]

LOVE Paula! Her products 100% changed my skin for the better and now I go without makeup whenever I please.

[@juliagoolia72]

I think I saw Paula for the first time on a Canadian TV show called Cityline, about 25 years ago. I've been following her word like the bible ever since. I never buy anything without reading what she says about it first. And now I trust Nadine to the same level.

[@flower1202]

Same here! I can't remember if it was Dini Petty or Marilyn Dennis who was hosting it at the time.

[@valjones2309]

If you live in Canada do you use her products? If so where did you get them? thanks

[@atme365]

Val Jones I live in Canada, you can order them online - she offers samples with every purchase and has lots of small sizes you can buy to see if you like a product first. Also has lots of promos and usually fast and free shipping! Lol NOT SPONSORED 😘

[@StillBloom]

Wonderful information - I could have watched it for 16 minutes longer! I remember Paula from over 20 years ago when she published "Don't Go To The Cosmetics Counter Without Me" (which I still own!) and she looks AMAZING! Thank you for this video, Nadine & Paula!

[@andreapulver2127]

I bought 4 2% bha toners at the Nordstrom sale last week! YAY! I transfer it to a spray bottle and spritz it on face, neck and chest 2x/day. Everything I know about skin, I learned from Paula! I was one of the first Paula's Choice customers 25 years ago and still use a lot of her products. If I'm ever tempted to try another product line, I ask myself "what would Paula say?"

[@beck3522]

Andrea Pulver I bought them, too! Can't wait to try them.

[@lisalou1384]

Thanks for the video. I wish it had been longer and Paula had gone through everything she uses on a daily basis.

[@bronwynjohnson999]

I didn't want the video to end..... could have watched it all afternoon. Thank you Nadine for interviewing Paula x

[@cathiclark7263]

This was awesome! I'm from the Pacific Northwest and Paula is very well known and respected. Thank you for this video.

[@Brutus1580]

Nadine meeting with Paula B! Sooooo happy to see this. Get it gerl!

[@lipstickkonniption7527]

Hi Nadine. Never apologise for the length of your videos especially if you are interviewing THE Paula (or the Dali Lama).💋

[@Janetlanle]

I love Paula's choice products. My favourites are the weightless toner and 10% resurfacing glycolic acid treatment. The ingredients list of both products say it all.

[@RRbobreed]

Thank goodness Paula pointed out the myths and truth about natural and synthetic ingredients! I'm so glad you made this video! I think I said, "AMEN!!!" after every answer Paula gave. I'm going to share this video with every woman I know!

[@lizbakeslemons940]

I could listen to you ladies talk about skin care ALL DAY LONG 😘

[@samsong24]

I love Paula's Choice products. I use the BHA toner, retinol 1% and vitamin C booster and all my moisturizers, cleansers and SPF's are by CeraVe. I'm so happy with my routine now! I don't think I'll change it up.

[@naomi8216]

Great chat! Would live to see an updated version x

[@lawyerlee]

This was wonderful! Thank you so much, Nadine. Paula's Choice products are some of my absolute favorites. I don't necessarily agree with every single stance she takes (as you say, the beauty world is quite divided), but I truly appreciate the transparency behind her products and their ingredients. A company that wants to empower consumers with knowledge is a wonderful, rare thing.

[@debibasile7438]

Hi Nadine. I have so much respect for Paula and have met her. Her skincare line is wonderful and I love her Skin Recovery Serum. It is one of my favorite products and I also love her BHA toner. I am so happy you had her on your channel. She does her research. Going to her site, you can find great reviews for products. And, I find her own products to be very affordable.

[@halfamo2422]

Wow, she's amazing! Lovely to hear someone so ethical in business! Why no essential oils, Nadine? Thank you!

[@lindagann4180]

Found Paula when I was 20 now 45 years later I still do. Wonderful show.

[@gidzboxbox8839]

I could literally watch hours of you two talking. You are my favorite beauty guru. The one I trust the most. I'm 24 and lazy with skin care but I realised that it's good to prevent damage asap. Your vids helped a lot. I now have a skin care routine for normal/combo skin finally! 1. Your good skin cleanser 2. Your good skin pore minimising toner 2.1 sometimes a Korean sheet mask 3. Viola vitamin c 20% serum with hyleronic acid 4. Innisfree orchid moisturiser 5. I'm guilty of not wearing sunscreen but I try to when it's sunny. I'm seeing improvements in the overall skin tone of my face already. My face has gone brighter. But my neck is dark still so I gave to sort that out😂

[@Sensai75]

Excellent video. Thank you so much, Nadine, for this video. I just love Paula. I'm so grateful that I've found Paula's Choice. I have very beautiful skin thanks to her. Thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️. I wish I could show you a picture of my skin care products :-)

[@62roxana]

I love this video, I could listen to both chatting away for hours.. Thank Nadine, another great informative video from you.

[@joanar4451]

This video should last 1 hour long. You just wanna know more about these ladies experiences and learn some tips. Nadine, you should talk to Paula again and also with more owners of these fantastics companies!! Thank you for this video I loved it

[@michellekelly2937]

Go to the Paula's Choice website! You'll find lots of great information on skincare. Also, check out Beautypedia.com for reviews on makeup and skincare.

[@joanar4451]

Michelle Kelly Thank you so much!! I'm definitely gonna do that. ❤

[@shannonm.4087]

OmG!!! I love Paula!!!!! Thank you so,so much for sharing your knowledge,Paula!!!!!!!

[@meiltoo]

to this day i still rely on beautypedia when shopping for skincare. I am the one who will check my beautypedia app in Sephora etc, in front of the shelves....In the past, i own Paula's book, its a lifeguard to me as there is no other substitute or choice. She is amazing!!!!

[@janettekenos3674]

Great video Nadine and so glad to see one of my skin care gurus on your channel. I have used her products for years and often get complimented on my skin. Though aging and wrinkled my skin looks healthy and hydrated and I think that makes a difference!

[@sparksflewpastme]

Thanks for this video! I have sensitive skin and have been suffering from eczema and acne too for years now and it's honestly so tiring because I'm afraid of triggering either one - I'm afraid of drying out my skin with acne products that will def aggravate my eczema, and trying out new makeup/skincare products that may irritate my skin? Ever since I found your channel I've been more informed and have been reading every product label so hopefully it'll pay off haha. Also I literally just realised that there's a Paula's Choice retail store where I live so that's great. Will definitely pop by soon!

[@Classsslady]

Thank you for the great information. I grew up in Hawaii before the sunscreens really worked. I would drink them if they helped. Now decent skin at almost 70 and when asked, just like what Paula said: most important, sunscreen, sunscreen and more sunscreen. Thank you both, Dinah

[@amyjacquelineg.9541]

Sorry you suffered with acne for so long( as I did too!). 😞However, the world of skin care has benefited from your trials and tribulations and the development of your amazing products. Thanks for your all you do! 🤓

[@Fpa7o]

Ahhh please do a longer video next time Nadine, this is great x

[@lorrainem1870]

Yes, she never waits between creams, there's no waiting time, watch her skincare routines, the more recent ones and you'll be amazed, and she looks amazing🤗

[@lynnettewood4269]

Definitely my favourite skincare brand!

[@lyndawood7937]

Really enjoyed your talk with Paula Begoun. Found out some things I was doing wrong.

[@susank683]

THANK YOU Nadine! I love Paula and this was very interesting and helpful! I'm so glad I found you to watch... you do a fine job of educating us all. Susan from NJ USA

[@Noblesseobligebeauty]

The ultimate video ! My two favorite ladies 😍😘😍😘

[@michaelmike3418]

Easy pleased then

[@nadinew2348]

Ahhhh! Girl crush! I've ALSO been following Paula's advice for, wow, over 15 yrs, after buying and reading her Beauty Bible. Its still on my bookshelf and has been my go-to reference. Thanks to Paula, I've known to use unperfumed products, that VitC products are light and air sensitive and shouldn't be coloured - or in clear bottles! To ask myself "Why does this "Wonder Product" contain alcohol, peppermint, lemon, orange or lavender? That fingers in jars is BAD, that AHA'S rock and scrubs suck. About suncreens. How to read an ingredients list. pH levels for ingredient efficacy.... Just so much! Just discovered your channel a couple of days ago. Thank god its the w/end and my fella's away fishing - I get to binge watch your videos! Lol! I love your no-nonsense, straight to the point product recommendations and that you're educating your viewers about the latest skincare science, ingredients and packaging so we can make informed choices. Thank you!

[@hirry.p]

She’s about to turn 70, I’m gonna do whatever she does.

[@peggyoberlander9774]

Loved this video. Wish you had asked her about Rosacea and the best skincare for Rosacea. If you ever do another sit down with her please make Rosacea one of your topics of discussion. Thank you for a most informative video on you tube.

[@lol365]

Peggy Oberlander I have rosacea and have used Paula's products for 9 years with great success. It really comes down to whether your skin is dry or oily and what textures you prefer. You would want to use a mineral sunscreen and not a chemical sunscreen simply to avoid the potential irritation. Otherwise, it takes experimenting. Also, do look into IPL treatment if you haven't already, it is a seriously underrated treatment for rosacea.

[@peggyoberlander9774]

lol365 Thank you for your help. I was very confused when I went onto Paula's website as the what products I would need for my Rosacea dry skin. I thought the products would have Rosacea on them either for dry or oily skin. I see they have a toll free number to call so I can give that a try. Thanks again.

[@michellekelly2937]

Peggy, My sister has rosacea and has used Paula's line for years. She likes the Resist Optimal Results Hydrating Cleanser. I like the Moisture Boost Cleanser. Both are creamy, rinse off cleansers. My favourite toner is the Skin Recovery Toner. It's very gentle for dry skin. There are several toners in the Paula's Choice line that are suitable for someone with rosacea. It just depends on your skin and your personal preference. Everyone's skin is different, so you MAY have to try a few different products to find the one that works best for you. That's how I've found my favourites, by experimenting as lol365 said!

[@duomogal]

I'm a huge fan of Paula's Choice and loved this video. There have been some products, however, that Paula (and her Beautypedia site) have rated poorly, that other skincare gurus (like you) recommend. Pixi Glow Tonic is a recent example. I'd love your thoughts on how you feel about products that might be challenging in this way (i.e., you love them but other skincare gurus advise against them). Conflicting info from gurus I trust is always a challenge! Thanks again for making such a wonderful suite of videos.

[@NadineBaggott]

I think you trust what your skin says to you - I don't use Pixi Glow because I don't like scented skin care and I say this on my video about it - but I know others love it and I recommend products that I might not use because others with different skin types love them. I will always prefer unscented skincare on my face (not such a stickler on my body unlike Paula) ... but opinions vary depending on your training and background. I am great mates with Caroline but we don't always agree on things. So if you try it and it works for you then go for it. For me I like unscented active ingredients led skincare, with no oils ... but if you have dry skin then your needs are different and if you believe in aromatherapy then you beliefs are different again. I tend to think more like a dermatologist than a facialist X

[@Carmenn123]

Wow...this video just made my day. Most of my skincare knowledge is from the both of you, so enjoyed seeing you together. Thank you thank you thank you 💗

[@melindadowney4087]

Thank you for this wonderful video! When I was younger, Paula's book was like a skincare bible for me. My question is, what are the different benefits of HA, niacinamides , and now I hear about topical collagen serums and how do you layer HA, Niacinamides, etc?

[@Marauder131]

Two excellent, well educated on skincare women. This was great. Thank you.

[@audreyeddinger9238]

PAULAS CHOICE is the BEST

[@OlenaBeley]

Loved this video! Paula's Choice products are amazing, the 2% BHA has been a staple in my skin care routine for over 5 years ad keeps my skin clear and awesome! Go Paula! :)

[@margaretharold7823]

I love Paula. At this late stage of my life my skin is the best it's ever been. I wish I had tried her products sooner. PLEEEEASE usr sunscreen I know it's a faff, I use physical, practice make it work.

[@gauriadvani5464]

Nadine this was such a brilliant video, certainly one to keep and cherish for years to come...!!

I recently ordered the new skin perfecting 8% AHA lotion and I'm hoping it's a pretty good dupe for good genes. Fingers crossed!

[@ssssshley]

It’s crazy how there’s no big youtubers aside from Wayne Gods that has reviewed Paula’s Choice , it’s such an incredible brand. I’m slowly transitioning my whole routine into Paula’s Choice. I have mild to severe acne and I have tried curology, Korean Skincare, Tatcha, Biologique Recherche, Cerave, Dermadoctor, a lot of brands and products but nothing worked like PC 2% BHA Exfoliating Liquid. It’s so amazing. My mind was blown away.

Thanks for a superb chat... im not sure bout fragrances. .. in skincare.. i do love a mild refreshing fragrance as long as its not a chemical in my cleanser options...

[@TheCorfie]

Perhaps an unedited director's cut required for those of us who can't get enough skincare chat!!

Paula hit it on the head. I live in Italy and every August it is the, “Who can get the tannest,” competition. Italians think I am weird for wearing sunscreen, hats, and using parasols. They make fun of me!! But, they look ages older than me too. So yeah... then there’s that!!

Finally!!!!!!! Loved it!

[@tidelouw5173]

Nadine, is there any chance you could talk about witch hazel (if you haven't already done so previously)? I've read many different reviews and opinions on the product - that it helps reduce blemishes, is great as a toner, etc. I would love to hear your take on it, as you are my beauty guru after all!

[@NadineBaggott]

I personally am not a fan and find it very drying and irritating to my skin X

[@the_eerie_faerie_tales]

You can try an alcohol-free one, Dickinson's makes a Hydrating Witch Hazel (with hyaluronic acid). Witch hazel is good for the skin.

[@lorrainem1870]

These are my favorite videos, according to Angie (hotandflashy) she never waits to layer on her creams after RetinA, she just piles it on, I do the same thing and it works just as good

[@ruthm3813]

So Angie layers on AFTER her RetinA? Paula said she puts her Retinol on afterwards. If Retinol or RetinA are creams then I thought it should go on after the more fluid items. Is it due to RetinA being different to Retinol?

[@lorrainem1870]

Marilyn R yes, she never waits between creams, there's no waiting time, watch her skincare routines, the more recent ones and you'll be amazed, and she looks amazing🤗

[@lorrainem1870]

Still struggle with the no aromo oils on the skin opinion, don't think I could ever change that x

[@reneerunyan3583]

Hello Nadine, I've followed you but was unable to post under your videos NOW I CAN. I'm 52 my skin in good shape( spf since I was 13) but its combo, scent sensitive, sensitive ,very fair. I have pores on either side of my nose (from younger breakouts, not full blown acne) that bother me endlessly. I use Clinique vit C and occasionally Indeed labs vit c 24. I love SKII essence and Clinique Smart Serum, which is Moisture Surge w/o fragrance. Haven't gotten on Retinol yet, I'm sooo sensitive. I do use Revive Glycolic acid and a good antioxidant from 3lab. What do I do to fill in the pores?TIGHTEN, resurface, blur. So glad I'm here. I frequently revisit your videos and enjoy them immensely.

[@NadineBaggott]

THANK YOU Renee It sounds to me like your skincare regime is great - retinol is the only thing that can really tighten and firm skin to make a visible difference but it sounds to me like you might be ready for, and can afford, laser treatments. Fraxel is the way to go to tighten skin and minimise pores. Niacinamide is proven to help minimise pores and Paula's Choice have a great serum booster. X at our age sometimes we need a little technology

[@reneerunyan3583]

Nadine Baggott Thank you!

[@helens9327]

Paula just showed us how important it is to care for our neck...

[@shellebelle6231]

Thanks Nadine for another brilliant informative video! You have inspired me to change my routine & im seeing results!!💕💕💕 Paula's products look good & I am thinking about trying the night resist one, but at the moment I'm loving the results with 2% advanced retinoid from The Ordinary. I also have the ordinary 1% but haven't tried that yet do you have any thoughts on which one is best? Also it was great to hear Paula say that retinoids should not cause flaking peeling skin, because Even though I can see great results my skin never peels or flakes which did make me wonder if the products really were working I also like Indeed labs vit c but wondered how it compared to The Ordinary vit c 23%? . Ps. I love your white top could I ask where it is from? Thanks once again x
