Where Trust Leads, Bold Ideas Grow, and Community Thrives

Paula’s Choice, a global skincare leader founded in 1995, empowers individuals to define beauty on their own terms through science-backed products. Our mission comes to life through four core values that guide our actions, decisions, and impact:

Build Trust: We set the standard for skincare, transparency, and shared knowledge.

Be Bold: We lead through innovation and by challenging the status quo.

Act with Kindness: We operate with respect and care—for our customers, colleagues, and the planet.

Create Community: We believe in the power of connection—whether educating customers, supporting each other, or giving back, we grow stronger together.

Our team spans North America, Australia/New Zealand, Europe, and the broader APAC region, collaborating globally to drive innovation. We offer space to thrive—personally, professionally, and through our comprehensive benefits package designed to support your well‑being at every stage:

• Generous paid time off, including time off to volunteer

Our culture encourages continuous learning and is fueled by connection, curiosity, and cross‑functional collaboration. Whether onsite, remote, or hybrid, we stay connected through shared initiatives that bring our teams together. If you’re inspired by transparency, driven to make an impact, and eager to help foster community—we’d love to have you join us.
