Paula's Choice is a trusted brand for their skincare. I have read about this popular US brand and seeing them featured in many magazine like Vogue. Their most popular product that many acne prone skin have attest is their
Paula's Choice Resist Daily Pore-Refining Treatment with 2% BHA .
I am so glad that this brand is finally in Malaysia because I know I have surely waited for this brand for years.
For today I am reviewing Paula's Choice Resist Youth Extending Daily Hydrating Fluid Spectrum SPF 50 which is a sunscreen for oily acne prone skin which I think many will be curious to know about.

It is screw type lid which I think is really thoughtful. Screw lid prevents spilling during travelling.

The sunscreen comes in form of a very light emulsion. It absorbed fast into the skin and I don't even feel anything after the sunscreen dries up. The finished is a hydrated moist looking skin which is not matte nor oily looking. As for the oil control, I think my nose does have a slight sheen when oil comes out from the nose while my other drier areas is the same as it was in the morning and is not flaky. I don't have huge pores so can't say something about that but the Paula's Choice Resist Youth Extending Daily Hydrating Fluid Spectrum does blur out the skin making it look slightly better.
The sunscreen doesn't have any fragrance to it so it smell a little like 'plastic' which is extremely faint and hardly noticeable. Doesn't have any smell on my skin once dried.
It doesn't leave a white cast on the skin at all and it will not cause 'pilling' if you use foundation or BB cream after the sunscreen. I think it is great for someone who has oily skin and lives in humid places. I have been using it for two weeks and it didn't aggravate my skin condition nor clogged my pores. I like that the few ingredients are water and glycerin which is very useful for hydrating the skin and keeping the skin moist. After all, I like hydrated skin but minus those pore clogging ingredients. There are some plants extract that are antioxidant to the skin but of course I couldn't attest to those ingredients unless I have been using them for two years.
Sunscreen is a good investment for your skin and it is one of the best thing you could do to prevent damage to your skin.
Overall, I will recommend it to oily or combination acne prone skin that needs a light sunscreen that hydrates their skin. I think this Paula's Choice Resist Youth Extending Daily Hydrating Fluid Spectrum SPF 50 is as good as a famous French brand which is not available in Malaysia. If you are looking for that brand, this is a similar product.
