For example, the DNA Repair or the Barrier Cream, if you used it once a day.
I plan to try samples, but it's hard to know how exorbitant the prices are without knowing how long the products last.
Thanks

According to Remergent's customer service, each product contains 35-36 "metered doses". |

With my last bottle of Barrier Repair, I used it twice a day and it lasted two months. I only dispensed enough to cover my face which was less than the metered dose which I found to be too much. The DNA Repair seems to spread further so you may get a little longer out of it. |

Of those two I've only used the DNA Repair, and am still on my first bottle although I'm expecting it to run out any day now - probably just over 3 months worth of use. I only press out a small amount though, so probably not even 1/2 a pump, and that more than covers my face and neck. The DNA Repair is quite thin, almost a cross between a serum and a light cream, and spreads very easily. |

Now I think I use too much, i.e. one and a half pump...on my face only.. |

Jeannie, I think a lot depends on how quickly your skin absorbs a particular product - I was quite surprised by how little I seem to need of the DNA Repair, as I always have to use about 6 drops of my Proheal and Active serum to cover just my face when you're only supposed to need about 3! |

i always mist my face with thermal water before applying any of the serums (C, Active, DNA Repair) and find i'm using a lot less than i initially was yet still getting the results. it also helps everything sink in better.... |

All of the Remergent product last me a long time as well as I do not need a full metered dose to cover my face.
I do not think the prices of these products are that high considering how long the product lasts and also that you are getting 1.7 oz for the DNA and Barrier Repair. |

I might have to try this as a first step before Proheal and Active then, thanks for the tip! |

you're misting with water. no different than if you put your product on a slightly damp face.... i found out about this secret trick because the water is so gross in paris that it was causing my face to breakout. misting it with pure thermal water after washing helped immensely. then there was that ohmygodimlate moment so i put my serum on my still damp face. noticed i suddenly had more to put on my neck and chest when using the same exact amount. and it sunk in even better, what do you know! the rest is history. i've been doing this ever since.... oh, and for those that wait 30 minutes between their C and other stuff, i mist in between too (before the next product). i used to make fun of ladies with their bottles of Evian spray and now i'm suddenly one of them! (except i use Avene) |

I've been using the DNA repair formula and it lasts me 3-3.5 months. I use it only once per day (in the evening) but over a large area including neck. |

I used mine twice a day, and it lasted two months. I liked it but it didn't WOW me (especially at that price), and so when it ran out I decided not to buy again. |
