Review - Paula’s Choice Resist Remarkable Skin Lightening Lotion

When I was younger, I love the sun. I will go sun bathing and water skiing almost every weekend. And the best thing is that, I do not believe in sun protection. I do not wear sunscreen (I hate the oiliness) until much later in my 30s. Sadly, these stupid habits have caused serious problems in my later life - photo aging.

So as early as in my late 20s, I began to notice pigmentations below the eye areas and on the cheek areas. The pigmentation is especially obvious on my right cheek area and these sun spots are size of 4 rice grains. In order to treat these aging spots, on top of my whitening products, I have tried various non-invasive treatments like IPL, Pigment Laser and Pixel. There is no visible result from IPL and Pixel at all. Although Pigment Laser is able to help remove the sun spots (on my right cheek) initially but after months later the spots reappeared again and bigger than what they were before. I almost give up on finding ways to remove them until I came across Paula’s Choice Resist Remarkable Skin Lightening Lotion.

Before I have used this product, I never believe in skin lightening / whitening skincare products and their efficacies. Well after trying numerous whitening products, most of them can only help to create a fairer skin but not able to lighten the pigmentation. So far only Paula’s Choice Resist Remarkable Skin Lightening Lotion can do that little magic!

Product Claims

2% Hydroquinone with a 7.4% concentration of glycolic acid at a pH of 3.6 works to effectively lighten sun- or hormone-induced brown skin discolorations (including freckles, age spots, and melasma). Has an elegant and silky lotion formula. Suitable for all skin types and skin colors. 100% fragrance- and colorant-free.

Ingredients

The key ingredient, Hydroquinone (2%), is considered as the most effective for reducing and potentially eliminating melasma. This strong inhibitor of melanin production prevents skin from making the substance responsible for skin color.

Glycolic Acid (7.4%), another powerful key ingredient, is considered the most effective researched ingredient to exfoliate sun-damaged skin from the surface of the skin.

This well-formulated lightening product also contains handful of potent emollients, water binding agents and antioxidants.

Reviews

Paula’s Choice Resist Remarkable Skin Lightening Lotion, with 7% Alpha Hydroxy Acid, is a surprising discovery! I have gotten these three FREE samples when I last made a purchase on AHA Gel and Antioxidant Serum.

I can see amazing result with only barely one and a half samples. OMG!!! Now you see it, and now you don’t!

Every morning and night, while having my daily regimen, I will spend almost five minutes observing the spots and amazed to see the spots becoming smaller and lighter each day. It is such a rewarding feeling!

WOW!!! I can’t believe it works! I luv it!

This lightweight lotion helps to lighten the pigmentations, with 70% improvement on the tiny spots below the eye areas and 50% improvement on the sun spots on my right cheek.

As there is a risk of using both key ingredients, Hydroquinone and Glycolic Acid, as they increase sun sensitivity, I will wear a sunscreen everyday indoor and outdoor to eliminate the risk.

I’m happy I have finally found Paula’s Choice Resist Remarkable Skin Lightening Lotion! Needless to say, I will definitely buy a full size after I have finished the samples!
