Was skeptical about using this, and was afraid about smearing anything allover my "bumpy-prone" forehead but since I can't afford Botox thought I'd give it a whirl. At first I didn't think it was working and I was upset, but then I e-mailed and Darren was actually great enough to write me back himself..wow! And here, I wasn't doing it right!!! I was supposed to load up on it 2 times a day for the first month consistently, and I wasn't doing that..duh! I have learned my lesson about reading directions though and since I have been doing this regulary I've got to say I not only can "feel" something working but also am starting to see the lines above my brows looking less noticeable  . YAY!!!!!
So in closing, when used properly (i.e. READ directions) this is a product that actually does something and is not a bunch of hype. Also RAVE for PSF and their great customer service!
I am so glad I found this line!

| Doodlebug, if you don't mind i'd like to ask how old you are. I'd like to buy this product for my mom. She is 55, and very sceptical about all skincare products. She uses some creams all the time, just in case, but she doesn't believe that anything would work. |

Jumpingball,
Hi, do I have to say!lol! Just kidding.I'll be 42 next month. 
I try to take very good care of my skin and am always in search of the best "cream" and now I'm into the microderm crystals in an attempt to help brighten me up! Even now, at this stage of my life, I am still very Oily and can have some acne flare-ups..probably hormones, lol, so as far as wrinkles go I'm not too bad with the exception of those little frown lines that give away my age! And they have really gotten worse over the last year. I blame squinting because I never wear sunglasses, even when I'm driving. And I have two teenager daughters so, I think that explains it!
I think you're Mum would love this if she'd use it. Especially since you can "feel" it working. It's sorta like a strange "pressure", but not like a headache. At 55 she's probably got a bit drier skin I'm guessing? My goal is to just keep consistent and track my results. At this point though I think it will at least be a great prevenative thing! (Oh and I am going to get myself some shades too  !!!

I'm highly interested in Browtox from PSF. I tend to frown without a reason, or squint, and my forehead suffers for it. Can you describe how it makes you feel? Is it the same as Botox? I don't want Botox because my mom and sister try it, and said it felt weird. My sister said when she laughed it was not fun because only her lips would move but her eyes couldn't. |

I bought some browtox.....not sure if it worked I havent used it more than a couple times I was kinda scared because it has curare in it, which is the stuff natives use in blowdarts to paralyze their prey!  |

But maybe that's why our forehead is paralyzed. I wonder if there's any side effect. I have not heard too much about Browtox, and would really love to hear more from regular users. |

I have used browtox too and really loved it! then I changed to Cellular Skin Rx SuperMax Multi-Peptide Skin Solution Serum and while I do like that too I am thinking of going back to browtox...I actually REALLY liked the feeling I had when I used it (sort of numb but in a nice way) I think I am just too scared to stop using the cellular skin one as it has all the 'good' peptides....  |

OH wow, I don't know if it's safe to use under the eyes???  But that is a great question. I wouldn't mind it if I could, to prevent those crows feet wrinkles that is. I would probably not do it without e-mailing PSF first though, just to be sure it's safe. Let me know if you find anything out!
FYI- as an update, I am still using this regulary (which is a MUST) and def. see an improvement. The numb sensation doesn't bother me anymore. It's sorta odd at first but at least you can "feel" it working. A def. plus. |

Is it safe to use this long-term? I heard some people experience sagging from using this. |

Hi! I have heard of this too but can't say I am finding that to be the case. I have not experienced any sagging, however, I do know that the effects are only going to last as long as you use the product. (which is why it is rather addictive! )
For example, I was loving my Estee Lauder Re-Nutriv firming eye cream and I started it in my early twenties and used it for YEARS I really felt that it "lifted" my eyes. When I quit using it and tried another product I was so upset because all of a sudden my eyes looks more saggy. That's when I realized I needed my Re-nutriv! The Re-Nutriv didn't cause the sagging, it only helped the sagging that was already there as I got older.
I think the results are only temporary but I do think that by paralyzing (sp) the muscles it is also preventative. But I think if you really want max results Botox is more the route. But remember, once it wears off, you may feel sagging again.  Outside of face lift, these are only temporary fixes. I am not one for surgery and so far I am pleased with my BT and have had no sagging or anything like that occur since I started using it. Botox is just not something I want to get into (too expensive and kinda extreme for me!)
I hope this helps!

hi guys i am 30 and have posted about having fine lines appearing at the corner of my eyes when i laugh and lines between my eyes (across the bridge of my nose). The lines on my nose are the most awful ones because when I apply make up and it wears away, the lines are horribly obvious.
I am thinking if i should try this out. But i have dry and sensitive skin and the contents look a bit heavy for me. Also concern about the HA Acid (my beautician told me to avoid acid-based stuff). Did anyone with sensitive skin try this and work? I am only afraid of reactions. Has anyone stopped using it and see your skin become saggy/wrinkles all return?
I saw Babor has similar stuff but costs waaay more. |
