In one word - brilliant.
The product is a jar filled with 40 tiny capsules and only one capsule is used at a time. The instructions say that one capsule is sufficient for both face and neck but I found it really only covers the face.
The product is like a clear oil but absorbs within a couple of minutes. Rather strangely, when I used it alone, it took around 2 minutes to absorb but when I used it after ISC Active, it absorbed immediately. And I have found that I have a pink tinge after applying ISC Active but my colour returned to normal within a few minutes of applying Tripeptinon.
I can't even begin to describe just how soft and flawless the skin feels after application and it still feels like that the next morning. Although it has an oily consistency, it has not caused me any breakouts.
For anyone using this product, I would suggest that you use scissors to only just nip off the very tip of the capsule otherwise you may inadvertently lose come of the contents.
The verdict - I will use it like a special treatment and will never be without it. And yes, while I have this I will be special treating my skin on most nights.
For the curious, the ingredients are: Cyclomethicone, Dimethiconol, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Simmondsia Chinesis, Ceramide Complex 2, Ubiquinone, Amino Multi-Tides, Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate, Peg10 Rapeseed Sterol, Triticum Vulgare, Glycyrrhiza Glabra, Carthamus Tinctorius, Angelica Archangelica Extract, Tribehenin, C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate, Citrus Bark Extract. |

oooh, that sounds nice (as if I need another thing to go "ooh" over).
But what a list of ingredients!! The only one that made me go "I know that" was Citrus Bark |

| I've been eyeing this product for a while. I've been using the photolagen for a month now and love it, so was hoping someone would try the tripeptinon and do a reveiw. Makes me want it more now!! lol.. |

| Does sound nice, doesn't it! I noticed ubiquinone in there too, isn't that a relative of idebenone (as used in Prevage)? |

| OMG, I did not realize this stuff was for "Sagging, loss of firmness and elasticity" !! It is already in my EDS cart which is where I keep my "want list" for the next purchase...which currently has 14 items in it for about $560 |

This sounds great! I really like the ingredient list. Is this a complete ingredient list or a key ingredient list? I would be even more tempted to buy if it had only the ingredients that are listed here.
BTW Ubiquinone is coenzyme Q10. It may very well be a relative of idebenone. I don't know though. |

Oh, please, please stop telling me about these wonderful things. It's way too tempting.
Right, that's another one on my wishlist. |

| My wishlist keeps growing and growing right now! And I'm still trying to use up some of my existing products as I promised myself I'd do before starting on my list. At this rate I'll need to stop eating to finance my skincare plans . |

I looked into this a little more and to answer my own question the ingredient list appears to be a complete ingredient list. Yeah
Does anyone know what Amino Multi-Tides are? It looks like some of the other Amino Genesis products have a combination of 17 amino acids. Is this just a short name for their amino acid combination or is it something else?
I have a feeling this is going to go on my wish list too!! I am totally unable to use up what I currently have without buying something else  |

| The ingredient list is as per the packaging and I would be fairly sure that it is the total list. If you have been a bit harsh with your skin then this will certainly provide a pick-me-up. |

 Yay! I was waiting to hear back about your experience with this product. How many times have you used it? Will you keep us updated? I react badly to so many products myself. I really hope this works (for both of us!). |

| I have used this every night for the past 10 days and still love how soft it makes my skin feel. This is definitely one I will keep and reorder. |

Could you please elaborate on why? I'm on the fence on this one since I just forked out the $ for the photolagen, although I do like it so far. |

Even on the 1st application it went on so nice & smooth. Texture reminded me of a thinner version of Vit E. In less than a minute my skin just drank it all in. My skin around my eyes, puppet lines and the wee beginnings of a turkey neck really appeared firmer. Just rolled out of bed about an hour ago and haven't washed my face yet, the lines on the outer edges and below my eye are very faint. The puppet lines aren't as predominant either.
If anything, I wish the capsule was a bit bigger so I could get more of my neck. But, I will def re-purchase this again. |

I'm waiting for my Photolagen to arrive, but my Tripeptinon arrived a couple of weeks ago, and I love it too!
Like Bushy said, if I had the choice I would love to use this every night because your skin just feels so amazingly soft in the morning! Not greasy at all, and as far as I can see, it would be perfect for any skin type. I haven't been using it for long enough to gauge if it does anything dramatic for my skin, but the texture and soft skin is enough for me at the moment. Definately something to re purchase! |

| Could you use the tripeptinon at the same time as using the ISC formulas? I thought this sounded very good, but I love the ISC, too! |
|

| I would think you could use it with ISC. Apply the Tripeptinon at night as the very last product on your skin. |

I've used Tripeptinon for 2 nights over ISC poly-vit, and I can't believe the difference it has made in my skin texture & firmness! I've never tried anything that has given me such immediate results! I'm really interested to see what accumulative effects it has over the next month.
Just worried that I'm going to love it way too much and will be broke for the rest of my life! |

| kls - that sounds like great immediate results. Do you happen to use the ISC firming cream? I am just curious how the 2 would compare. |

Hi Rileygirl-
I have the firming complex, but haven't been using it for awhile. I tried using it over the active serum but I guess that was too much for my skin at the time. I switched to poly-vit about a month ago & been having good results. Been thinking about trying the firming complex over the poly-vit, but am going to wait until I feel my skin has adjusted to the new products I'm currently using. I still have a bottle of active, so I would like to see if I can go back to using it now that my skin has settled down. |
