I you have tried any of the PCA product I would like to hear how you rate them and what experiences you had with them. I need a starter kit for my holiday and would like to order it from EDS as I can depend on a speedy delivery. I am considering this one as it seems to have a good mix of products and moisturizers with spf. I have never heard of the line before I saw it here - is it used by salons in America? Are the products possibly too strong for a sensitive skin? I tried a search and can only find reviews of the cleanser which sounds great. I also think my skin needs a break from all the essential oils in the natural lines I normally use. Any feedback would be much appreciated.

smoothskin - I have never tried these but they sound like good products. Try to search skincarerx.com for the products you are interested in, as they have reviews from actual users for a lot of stuff. Also, you could try to get reviews on makeup alley.

A dermatologist office near me sells PCA so a friend who goes there gave me a deluxe sample of PCA Skin pHaze 9 Purifying Mask. It stung when I put it on (couldn't get it off fast enough!), but I am using rx retinoids which makes your skin more sensitive. She loves PCA though and won't use anything else.

I prefer their AHA cleanser to the MDF one, it seems less drying. They also have a very nice scrub (quite finely grained) but I haven't been a fan of the creams that I have tried.

Thanks Phredd4 it sounds like this range could be a bit strong for me...
Mabsy, it was actually your review I read about the cleanser and it sounds really good, but what did you think of the creams - were they not that effective? Thanks for any feedback Smile

I was just put off my the texture and smell I think. The cream for combo skin felt too heavy. The masks were not really pleasant (though perhaps they were effective) and they went dark yellow within the jar pretty quickly for me.
