Paula&#39;s Choice Power Berry Serum:
&quot;This 95% natural serum gives skin a healthy glow through a potent combination of berries selected for their proven antioxidant power in nature.&quot;

Paula’s Choice Power Berry serum is an antioxidant serum. It helps to protect the skin from free radicals and therefore to preserve the youth of your skin.

Paula’s Choice takes anti-aging prevention very seriously and the brand already includes about ten anti-oxidant serums in their range (not to mention boosters like the one with vitamin C or Niacinamide, which I love).

I think this Power Berry clearly targets Millennials. It’s indeed a great first anti-aging product that young people (starting 25) can add to their routine to start taking care of their skin.

Now, I still find it useful for me who has been around for almost 40 years (lol). My routine has always been very, very rich in antioxidants.

For me, they’re essential and I use as many as possible! I have always believed that a good anti-oxidant complex is the most effective way to protect my skin. And that’s obviously also the opinion of Paula’s Choice! 🙂

In addition, anti-oxidant ingredients boost the effectiveness of sunscreen, so it’s even more interesting!

The Power Berry Serum is part of Paula’s Choice’s “Earth Sourced” range, the brand’s most natural range. They claim a 95% natural formula.

It contains a lot of plant extracts in its formula, including 13 different berries, known for their antioxidant effects. Its pink color is due to all these red fruits, there is no additional dye!

In addition, it doesn’t contain silicones, for those who avoid them 😉

My Thoughts:
I started to use the Power Berry Serum about 6 weeks ago. I added it to my morning routine, because I think that’s when anti-oxidants are most useful!

During the day, the skin is constantly under attack (pollution, blue light, stress, UV rays…), so an anti-radical shield product is more than welcome!

The texture is very “classic serum”; it’s a rather viscous liquid gel, not the lightest of my serums (I use a lot of Korean serums which are generally intended for a layering routine, so often super lightweight in texture). It still spreads fairly well and absorbs easily, leaving the skin very comfortable (without any greasy effect at all).

Regarding the results, you definitely have to think about the long term with this type of product. But I already said it, for me, it doesn’t matter, I know I’m investing in the future of my skin!

The brand also talks about an effect on skin radiance, but to be honest, I’m not convinced, and I’m counting more on my acids or my vitamin C for that! 😉

It’s rather pleasant to use for the summer season, at least, which is always a plus!

Method I Use:
I rather use the Power Berry Serum in the morning, to benefit from its anti-free radical effect as much as possible, after my essence(s), and before my moisturizer.
I apply a small amount of serum that I massage onto the skin of my face and neck. It’s not the most light-weight serum I have tried, but it absorbs relatively quickly, and leaves a very slightly sticky feeling that fades quickly once I apply my moisturizer on top.

In conclusion:
Antioxidant ingredients have always been part of my skincare routine, so the Power Berry serum found its place in mine without any issue.

It’s pleasant to use, and fits easily into a travel kit. A reminder: an anti-oxidant serum boosts the effectiveness of sunscreen products, so if you don’t use them yet, summer is the best time to start! 😉

Pros:
- the formula is nice, with a lot of natural ingredients
- its powerful antioxidant effect, it&#39;s a perfect daytime serum
- its long-lasting moisturizing effect (it&#39;s comfortable)
- it&#39;s great to recommend to someone who wants to start an anti-aging preventive routine
- the packaging is nice and I appreciate that it&#39;s a practical tube

Packaging:
A bright green plastic tube with a cool practical dispensing tip.

Fragrance:
Fragrance-free

Texture:
It looks a little viscous at first, but it finally absorbs quite well, leaving the skin comfortable but not greasy.

For:
– those who are concerned by the aging signs of their skin, who are looking for an anti-aging solution and prevention (even if, after 40, it’s maybe better to switch to more powerful antioxidants in my opinion)
– suitable for all skin types

Concerns:
Anti-aging prevention

Key Ingredients:
The Power Berry Serum contains mainly:
– antioxidant ingredients in the form of RED FRUIT and BERRIES (raspberries, blackberries, goji berries, acai berries, blueberries, grapes…), there are 13 in total and they are the ones that give the serum its pink color (it doesn’t contain any dyes)
– a derivative of VITAMIN C and VITAMIN E, two other antioxidant ingredients
– but also GLYCERIN and SQUALANE to moisturize the skin
– repairing PEPTIDE
– and LICORICE EXTRACT for the soothing and radiance-boosting effect

Not bad but I wish there was a berry scent to match the colour lol

I love the packaging and the pink colour of the serum. This product is 95% natural and has berry extracts for antioxidants. I like this serum it absorbs well.

-packed with potent antioxidants
-beautiful color
