I don't often post rave reviews but in the case of Juice Beauty's 'Star' products I just had too!
I have been trying out the following:
Green Apple Peel and SPF 15 Moisturiser
Eye cream and anti-oxidant serum (the regular version not green apple).
I posted a review earlier on the peel and moisturiser and I am still liking the SPF but this is really to rave about the antioxidant serum and peel combination.
The Antioxidant serum is gel like in texture and smells very fresh. The first time I applied it I thought -  that's nice - it sank straight in leaving no oily residue but did leave my skin a little tacky but this wore off. To begin with I only was applying this at night. I would wake up with no oily patches and a more even rested complexion.
Anyway I had been using the peel with good results and once I got the serum I decided to apply the serum straight after then the eye cream (I don't like night creams I find them suffocating and icky!).
Next morning - WOW! I woke up with smooth, clear and *better* skin!
This encouraged me to use the serum over my Vit C and under my Avene in the mornings too(skipping the Green apple SPF which was a bit much on my skin for the spring).
Well I don't know if its the serum or the peel or (most likely)a combination of the two but these products are fabulous!
My skin was looking pretty good anyway (thanks to all the recommendations on here!  ) but I am VERY fair and the slightest blemish can leave a red mark for months if not years. (I had a breakout for the first time in ages early this year following me using JB Organic cleanser  ).
Using these products any marks have almost completely gone! Even ones that although faint I could see, that I had thought I was stuck with so had just ended up ignoring them and covering with concealer, have faded.
The best bit was when a friend I hadn't seen for ages said 'OK spill it what have you had done?'LOL 
My skin just looks plumper and firmer and clearer.
My skin hasn't looked this good for years!
Not forgetting the eye cream - This is cooling and hydrating, sinks in and smooths any dehydration. A really nice product which whilst good I would swap with Cellcosmet,PSF Hydrating or The Organic Pharmacy Eye cream. ie. Its great but I could live without it - the peel and the serum - you'd have to fight me for!
I have two small gripes - the packaging on the eye cream is not great; its hard not to end up with too much product (if I do I use it as a lip treatment. The other is a minor gripe that now these have proved so good I have been *forced* to try more Juice products (which at least are not quite so pricey as my other love 'The Organic Pharmacy'), I just ordered and received the Deluxe Organic Face Kit which has a cleansing milk (to replace my Dr H Cleansing Milk which has almost run out and I do like but I am always on the lookout for something even better - although I will NEVER part with Dr H Cleansing Cream!)a Nutrient moisturiser, three tinted lip balms, a sample of the apple peel, and some samples of Blemish serum and one other thing that I can't remember!(ETA - Its the oilfree moisturiser).
I will post a further review on these when I've used them a while.
Anyway sorry for the long rambling post - just had to tell you how good this was!!
