Enhancement and Paula's Choice. The trademarks and logos used and displayed on this Site are trademarks of Paula's Choice

Product/Advice Disclaimer
This web site does not offer medical advice, or attempt to diagnose or treat any skin problem or skin condition. If you have a
medical problem with your skin, please make an appointment to see a dermatologist in your area. All products should be used
as directed on the product container or on this website. Discontinue using any product that causes irritation (redness, itching,
burning, scaling, soreness, or other symptoms).
The information provided by this website or this company does not substitute for a face-to-face consultation with a dermatologist
or with your physician, and should not be construed as individual medical advice.
Information/Recommendations Disclaimer
The intent of this site is to present the author’s ideas and perceptions about the marketing, selling, and use of cosmetics. The
author's sole purpose is to present consumer information and advice regarding the purchase of makeup and skin-care
products. The information and recommendations presented strictly reflect the author's opinions, perceptions, and knowledge
about the subject and products mentioned. Some people may find success with a particular product that is not recommended or
even mentioned on this site, or they may be partial to a skin-care routine Paula has reviewed negatively. It is everyone's
unalienable right to judge products by their own criteria and to disagree with the author.
More important, because everyone's skin can, and probably will, react to an external stimulus at some time, any product could
cause a negative reaction on skin at one time or another. If you develop skin sensitivity to a cosmetic, stop using it immediately
and consult your physician. If you need medical advice about your skin, consult a dermatologist or physician.
