Paula's Choice-what next?

Mumofteensandcats · 30/08/2025 08:31

Ive just come to the end of my 2nd bottle of Paula's Choice 1% retinol and wondered if there is anything else I can use? I started on this to see if I could tolerate the product which I can but feel like I might be able to use something a bit stronger now if that makes sense?
I'm 44 with normal, if anything drier skin if that helps?
Thanks in advance!

The next step up would prescription strength tretinoin.

Just be careful though, as even the lower strength (0.025%) is much stronger than a 1% retinol, so you may start peeling again while your skin gets used to it.

You can either get it on prescription from a dermatologist, or from a subscription service like Dermatica or Skin & Me.
