An innovative moisturiser featuring vitamin C, a research-supported antioxidant that does so much more than brighten tone. On its own, it can visibly firm, counteract free-radical damage and support some of skin’s most essential functions. When joined with barrier-repairing ingredients like peptides and lipids, it can also help bind in moisture for a supple, youthful complexion. This lightweight moisturiser super-boosts hydration, evenness and radiance with a blend of powerful ingredients. First, 5% stabilised vitamin C visibly lifts dullness and promotes firmness by fighting free-radical damage. Then, hexapeptide-5, lipids and polyglutamic acid strengthen the moisture barrier for lasting hydration over time. * Once or twice daily, apply a small amount to face and neck. * For daytime use, always finish with SPF 30+.

I’ve never had a great experience with vitamin c moisturizers, for some reason they just clog up my pores. I’ve never tried this one, this was my first time purchasing this and I initially wanted to use it morning and night but didn’t realize til after that it’s a night time moisturizer only (the PM sign on the box). No problem, as to results I will update once I start using it! A FEW DAYS UPDATE: so it is VERY lightweight I love it. ZERO fragrance. But I’ve noticed it’s not hydrating at all. I put it on after hyalironic acid and I don’t think I’ll do that just because it doesn’t seem to retain the moisture that hyaluronic acid gives me. Like I put it on and an hour later I was looking at my face and I could see the skin was tight when I’d move my mouth and usually ... MoreI’ve never had a great experience with vitamin c moisturizers, for some reason they just clog up my pores.

Otherwise though results are great, no clogged pores or breakouts, my face is definitely looking brighter. I think complexion is slowly getting more even and pleasant looking. And it’s just so lightweight I really like spreading it around my face! Lol.

I didn't expect to like this as much as I do. I've used Paula's choice forever, and so many of her products are great. This gel cream is light to moderately hydrating, surprisingly soothing for a vitamin c cream, and VERY brightening. Within a few days, you can really see a difference, and it duplicates results I've gotten with products containing l-ascorbic acid, which is usually what people look for as the vitamin c form, but it's often times irritating or hard to acclimate to for sensitive skin. If you're looking for something more gentle (but still effective) than a vitamin c product you've used, but had irritation with, try this! For those of you with dry skin, if this is not hydrating enough, you can always use it in the morning as as serum step, then follow ... MoreI didn't expect to like this as much as I do.

For those of you with dry skin, if this is not hydrating enough, you can always use it in the morning as as serum step, then follow with moisturizer, then sunscreen. At 1.7 oz and this price point, it is actually a very good price per ounce being used as a serum, as most serums are only 1oz. I'm able to use it in the morning, under sunscreen, as a serum/moisturizer, with nothing else. But I use a heavier cream at night .

I’ve been loving the liquid exfoliant from Paula’s Choice. When I saw that they were coming out with a vitamin C moisturizer, I knew I had to test it out! I apply this product in the AM onto cleansed skin. I use 1-1.5 pumps of the product and apply a thin layer onto my face and neck. It absorbs so easily into my skin. I’m impressed with how good this makes my skin look while I’m wearing makeup. I can definitely tell a difference in the moisture of my skin. Makeup tends to accentuate dryness and fine lines, but when I apply this moisturizer underneath makeup, my skin’s dryness is greatly reduced. I’ve been using it for a week now and my skin looks brighter while feeling more supple and more moisturized.

So I couldn't figure out why this was pilling sooo badly on me. I tried everything. Then I thought ohh perhaps some of the oils have moved away from the formula and that's why it isn't performing correctly so I shook the bottle for a good minute to mix it all around then pumped one pump into the trash and the next one onto my face-again, trying to get this stuff to work because I love the idea of this. Well lo and behold it doesn't pill as long as you shake it a bunch. Then don't touch your face for at least 5 min. I touched my neck and it just barely crumbled off but the rest of the area I applied after about 5 min it felt like nothing was on my skin-in a good way. I think I've been super spoiled by Korean moisturizers that couldn't pill if they wanted to because ... MoreSo I couldn't figure out why this was pilling sooo badly on me. I tried everything.

Anyway, happy I finally got it to work! Will update if I run into anymore problems!
Hi, I was a bit conscious ordering the full size as I wasn't sure how my skin would react (I am a fan of exfoliators) but the 20% off was tempting and I was looking for the ways of incorporating more vitamin C into my skincare regime. (I love PC's Vitamin C 15 booster!!) I must add that I am 49 years old and a long time fan of PC and quite happy with the way my skin looks and feels. Now on to the cream. It is more liquid than my favourite (Resist Intensive Repair) moisturiser for very dry skin, but it glides on beautifully leaving the skin glowing and moisturised instantly, with plump and less tired skin the next morning. It came with the eye cream which I am delighted with too. My skin didn't react badly at all and I will alternate it with my favourite (Resist Anti ... MoreHi, I was a bit conscious ordering the full size as I wasn't sure how my skin would react (I am a fan of exfoliators) but the 20% off was tempting and I was looking for the ways of incorporating more vitamin C into my skincare regime.

I hope to see a long term results in weeks and months to come. Everybody's skin is different and I hope it will work for you too. Thank you Paula!
I haven't been using it for long enough to see results but out of the handful of PC moisturizers Ive used, this one feels unique. The only way to describe it would be like cashmere. It's not "silky" in my opinion, it feels more soft and light, almost like velvet on my skin. It absorbs quickly and leaves my face looking clean and almost matte, like nothing is on it-- just healthy.I have combo/oily skin and it seems to reduce and prevent shine. Also, I am acne prone and have seen no breakouts. It just leaves my skin looking and feeling fresh and baby-butt soft. It's more weightless than the whipped electrolyte moisturizer and less oily than the oil-free moisturizer. I can't see any visible benefits at this point but the feeling alone makes it a winner.

Sadly, this product is a total fail for me. I've been using PC products since Paula started the line. I am concerned about the direction PC is taking, particularly since Uni acquired them. I don't care for the price creep, but this new moisturizer looked interesting. I am in my late 40s. I have combination (oily)/normal skin, and I'm acne-prone.This product broke me out terribly. I had acne in areas where I haven't broken out in decades -- like my forehead -- in addition to my usual area (chin/nose/mouth). It also irritates my skin upon application, with a stinging sensation that flushes my skin (which does dissipate). Finally, it wasn't very moisturizing either.I discontinued use. Disappointed.I know I'll get a response that "I can contact CS for help." However, ... MoreSadly, this product is a total fail for me. I've been using PC products since Paula started the line.

I'm fair-skinned and in my mid-fifties. I walk where I need to go and I've got to protect my skin in all weathers. It's a cold, difficult time of year for me; sometimes I can't prevent heading into a cold wind during my trekking. C5 has produced immediate, excellent results for my skin. It's truly moisturizing but not too emollient. Vitamin C gives me a younger, healthy appearance. All the ingredients help protect my face and I've experienced no irritation. I look good on arrival at work or home which surprised me a bit because it's been tough lately. I most often use it at night. Sometimes I mix just a little with a booster or serum during the day under my sunscreen because I can get to it faster than the dropper bottle of my favourite C booster.

I go through a lot of the Defense Essential Glow mineral sunscreen throughout the year.
I am relatively new to the Vitamin C niche of skincare, and I have a few different Vitamin C products from Dermalogica, La Roche and Paula's Choice which are all varying in formulation and purposes. This moisturizer is one of the best moisturizers hands down I have ever put on my face, and I own some pretty $$$ moisturizers. The way I use this product is in the mornings after my serum, I will apply this moisturizer and then apply SPF - sometimes the opposite way too. 2-3 pumps covers my face thoroughly, and I've noticed that the redness around my nose, bridge between my cheeks and mouth area have been becoming lighter in redness and more in sync with my neutral skin tone. I've also noticed a slight brightness under my eyes, nothing too extreme but enough to make me ... MoreI am relatively new to the Vitamin C niche of skincare, and I have a few different Vitamin C products from Dermalogica, La Roche and Paula's Choice which are all varying in formulation and purposes.

I've also noticed a slight brightness under my eyes, nothing too extreme but enough to make me do a double take of myself in the mirror. This is a wonderful moisturizer, has a slight to moderate citrus fragrance that fades, and I think is a pretty good price for the product - I purchased two because I had a hunch it would be good - which it was! Highly recommend.
I received this product from Paula's Choice in exchange for a review; these are my honest opinions.PROS:- I love the texture of this -- it's a lightweight cream that spreads beautifully across the skin and manages to suit my oily skin for both morning & evening- the formula layers well with other products too -- no pilling to be found- it leaves a nice satin finish behind that isn't matte but isn't shiny either- I love knowing that this has the added benefit of a vitamin C derivative in it, so it's a great two-in-one product- love the airless pump packaging, as it means I don't have to worry about getting every last bit of product outCONS:- I wish this had a higher concentration of vitamin C in it to boost its efficacy, but I like that it hasn't irritated ... MoreI received this product from Paula's Choice in exchange for a review; these are my honest opinions.PROS:- I love the texture of this -- it's a lightweight cream that spreads beautifully across the skin and manages to suit my oily skin for both morning & evening- the formula layers well with other products too -- no pilling to be found- it leaves a nice satin finish behind that isn't matte but isn't shiny either- I love knowing that this has the added benefit of a vitamin C derivative in it, so it's a great two-in-one product- love the airless pump packaging, as it means I don't have to worry about getting every last bit of product outCONS:- I wish this had a higher concentration of vitamin C in it to boost its efficacy, but I like that it hasn't irritated my skin and feels gentle enough to layer an additional vitamin C serum underneath- at $45 for 50mL, this is definitely not cheap; however, if you are looking to streamline your vitamin C & moisturizer into one step, it may be worthwhile
