The Ingredients

It’s clear that this brand knows their stuff when it comes to chemical peels. But how well do the rest of the products in the PCA Skin collection perform? The only thing we don’t love about this moisturizer is the inclusion of fragrance, which may lead to skin sensitivity.Unfortunately, PCA Nutrient Toner includes a pretty high concentration of fragrance, which may lead to skin sensitivity. PCA Skin Care is known for their expertly created formulations. Founded nearly 30 years ago by a dermatologist, this brand has continued to be a force in the industry. Looking specifically at one of their fan favorite products is the PCA Rejuvenating Serum, this product was designed to act as a preventative aspect in your skincare routine to keep the most noticeable signs of premature aging at bay. This product is formulated with grape fruit stem cell extract as well as epidermal growth factor which help to reduce the early signs of visible aging such as fine lines and wrinkles, age spots, uneven skin tone, and dullness. Additionally, the antioxidants within this formula helps to protect the skin from environmental damage that can accelerate the aging process even further. With all of that included, this product works to both minimize the signs of aging that have already started to develop on your skin while simultaneously preventing further signs of aging from becoming more prevalent in the further. Because of this, we’d recommend this product to those of your who are just starting to get into anti-aging or protective skincare and are looking for a product that you can seamlessly incorporate into your routine.
