Formulating products that improve the health of your skin is a cornerstone of PCAskin. We’ve recently added their whole range to our website (we’ve had a few of our favourites available for years) so it’s high time we had a PCAskin product review.
Their products are created to work together in customised regimens that deliver healthy, beautiful, younger-looking skin. Of course, they’re free of synthetic dyes and fragrances, mineral oil, lanolin and phthalates, we prefer our products this way – and so does your skin! PCAskin always maintains a deep respect for human health, animals and the environment. Check out what we’ve been trialling over the past few months below.
Meg’s PCA Skin Product Review 
“Hyaluronic Acid is one of my most favourite serums that I use. I love the plumping result, as well as feeling like my skin is always hydrated. My skin is on the oilier side, so hyaluronic acid is a perfect ingredient that adds moisture without adding more oils. The PCA Hyaluronic Acid Boosting Serum is my absolute favourite. Although this is more expensive than most hydrating serums, once you use it, you will understand why – the results are better than any other hyaluronic acid I have ever used – and this is because it uses three types of Hyaluronic Acid to reach both the upper and lower levels of your skin, leaving you feeling soft, smooth and glowing.
Not only does this serum glide over your skin like silk, the smell is so beautiful, slightly pepperminty, slightly like eucalyptus.
Key Ingredients
- Hyaluronic Acid and Sodium Hyaluronate. A form of hyaluronic acid that attracts and holds 1,000 times its weight in moisture within the upper layers of your skin, providing a smoothing and plumping action while reducing water loss.
- Hydrolysed Hyaluronic Acid. Reaching the deeper levels of your skin to provide hydration and reduce wrinkles.
- HA-Pro Complex™. Works on your skin’s own native hyaluronic acid to deliver moisturisation, plumping and smoothing wrinkles. Supporting your skin’s natural protective layer to reduce moisture loss.
- Niacinamide (2%). Vitamin B is designed to improve barrier function, reduce redness and support an even skin tone.”

Julie’s PCA Skin Product Review
“My favourite PCAskin product? I love it. I love the smell, I love the texture, I love how it feels on my skin, I even love the packaging! But most of all I love the results.
PCA? Perfectly clever and amazing. Doesn’t really stand for that, but that’s what I tell everyone.
I would awaken sometimes, look in the mirror and think one side of my face is trying to migrate to the other. There would be big fold lines everywhere, like it needed a good ironing. But no more, I have found my face iron.
It contains all the good stuff like Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide and antioxidants, it is hydration and nourishment at its best.
If you have been looking for the ultimate night time moisturiser/mask, this is it.
But what is this perfectly, clever and amazing product, I hear you ask?
PCAskin Hyaluronic Overnight Mask
Enjoy.”

Pip’s PCA Skin Product Review
“I couldn’t resist trying the PCA Skin ExLinea Peptide Smoothing Serum! It’s designed to reduce your deep expression lines as a spot treatment. We’re talking forehead wrinkles, laugh lines and crow’s feet. As well as the peptide that targets wrinkles, it has hydrators to plump – these things go hand in hand of course to rejuvenate your skin.
I’m surprised at the results, I don’t know why I was so pessimistic, but there you go. My expression lines are still there, but they’re not as deep. I’ve been using this for a few weeks now, and I’m seeing noticeable results! I have no regrets trying this product and feeling totally grateful… if you’re looking for a non-invasive wrinkle treatment, this is definitely worth a try!”

When I first started working here at the clinic, I was in my mid-thirties and my wrinkles were non-existent. While my skin was thin, red and sensitive from illness, it was still firm. Now I’m in my 40’s I’m sorry to say I’ve seen a change. Even using great skincare, I’ve had to make changes to suit my skin. I’ve found my skin drying out and my expression lines starting to deepen and ‘stay’ even when I’m relaxed… arg! Thanks perimenopause. I couldn’t resist trying something that ‘mimics’ injectables… I mean really, non-invasive improvements? Yes please!!!
Nidia’s PCA Skin Product Review
“The PCA Skin Hyaluronic Acid Lip Booster sounds very promising – instantly hydrating, volumizing and plumping – and it did not disappoint. My lips have never been so hydrated! The volumizing was also a nice perk and there is absolutely no tingling or stinging. The most impressive, though, was the reduction in fine lines. Lips can be an overlooked area when it comes to signs of ageing, but the Lip Booster has you covered with more plumpness and less lines. The consistency is thick, only very slightly sticky and it stays on for a long time, which means you don’t need to reapply often – bonus!

If you want to geek out, the key ingredients are amazing. Filling Spheres (trademarked, of course) are an advanced mix of sodium hyaluronate and konjac root, which up the plumpness and hydration with zero irritation. Tocopherol (Vitamin E) is a high-performing antioxidant and hydrator. Lastly, a powerful peptide and botanical blend stimulates collagen production to reduce fine lines and wrinkles while increasing the volume. With daily use, the effects become more long-term.
