I saw this product win an award in Self Magazine for Best Normal Skin Moisturizer. Was curious if any of you gals here have tried it? I did a quick search but only found someone who had an allergic reaction to the copper peptides. Other than that it seems to be getting good reviews in other forums/blogs. Its quite pricey but I'm willing to try it if it yields results! Thanks in advance!! Very Happy

Not the full list.. but i just pulled this off the site.

Featured Ingredients: Lychee Extract, Idebenone, Niacinamide-Glucosamine, Hyaluronic Acid, Copper Tri-Peptide-1, Palmitoyl Oligopeptide-3, Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7, Marshmallow Extract.

Curious how these ingredients work together - and lychees are delicious!

I got a sample in the Test tube from New Beauty and ended up buying it- I really love it. I'm a Prevage user so have no problems with the idebenone- and have no reactions to the other ingredients. It has a lovely light texture and smells divine. I gave some to my Mom and she loves it too. I'm reordering for the 3rd time.

Thanks for the input! I just put in my order also. So excited to try it and will surely give a review here when I do.

Hi! Here are my first impressions of the cream. The packaging is lovely, but I was so anxious to get to the stuff I think I broke the box. Laughing I am truly impressed with the texture and scent of the cream, its extremely light and fluffy yet moisturizes very well. My face is feeling VERY hydrated and refreshed (I applied 20 minutes ago). So far so good! sbparadis you were right it smells absolutely divine!

I'll give more progress reports throughout the week.

Day 4 - I've been applying it twice a day and my skin feels wonderful! I haven't had any reaction to the ingredients and have even had a few friends compliment my skin! I wish I would have taken a "before" photo. I'll update again soon.

Thanks.

It cost $110 for 1.5oz w/ free shipping and came with a good amount of samples. Definitely not a cheap cream. However, the price seems normal for idebenone skincare (prevage $150, freeze 24-7 $115). What turned me onto it was all of the extra ingredients and lychees. So far I'm very happy w/ the purchase!

Day 6 - My skin feels firmer, brighter, and always moisturized. I've been applying only once a day in the morning after my shower and it seems to hold for the rest of the day. I live in Southern California and its been hot here but the creme is perfect and not overwhelming. I think I'm in love!

If anyone is interested I just got an email about free 2nd day shipping w/ code VIP115.

Has anyone else tried it since this thread started?

whoa, meepo! I didn't get samples with my order- boo hoo! hopefully I will this time around.
They have a couple of new products on their site now- did they send samples of those? did you get a chance to try them?

WOW! I'm amazed at all the money I'm going to spend now that I have joined EDS LOL!!
I just ordered this skin cream because of your rave reviews and I use and LOVE Prevage MD

I don't have a moisturizer I love so I look forward to trying it out.

I used the coupon you posted for free shipping, THANKS Meepol Smile

Greeniiiz I'm glad you're joining me! I think you'll love it too! What type of skin do you have? Very Happy

sbparadis - I'm sure they'd be glad to send you samples if you asked. I haven't tried any of the other products but they do look interesting.

Has anyone here tried them? They can be found here: http://skingenic.com/home.php?cat=1

I have combo skin, large pores,
but I have some surface dryness because I'm not hydrated enough AND I need a new moisturizer, I don't have one I like.

It sounds like i WILL like this one though Smile

SHould receive it by the end of the week.

update - I need to cut down on usage before I run out too quickly! Its been getting really warm here as summer approaches but still great.

I think I'm going to go ahead to purchase the serum for a test run. Has anyone else tried it?

I really like the sample I got in my Beauty Test Tube. It makes my skin feel so soft and provides good moisture for my dry skin.

Was thinking of getting it but it sure is expensive retail! Any places that offer a discount?
