Anyone use these products? I do not but QVC is having a special show on Sat. with some new release from Dr. Perricone. If you are a DP fan, you might want to tune in. It is an Advanced Face Firming Activator? $120. That is some expensive face firming activator!!! 
Anyway, thought I would share if anyone is a fan. Looks like it is on at midnight - 1am, 11am - noon, and 11pm - midnight EST. |

| I became interested in Dr. Perricone products after reading his book, the Clear Skin Prescription. Then lost my interest when I saw the price and how few of the actives he so propounds are actually in his product. I am greatful to him, however. Search for product that contains Vitamin C Ester, DMAE and Alpha Lipoic acid led me to Janson Beckett AlphaDermaCE. |

His products are WAY too expensive.
I got a sample of the lip plumper and I liked it. Didn't plump my lips much, but they seemed a bit smoother. I would never buy it unless it was a fraction of the current price. |

I ordered Perricone years ago when the price was not outragious. I, like you, found the ingredients in AlphaDerma and JB's Night Cream very similar.
I watch QVC's segment on Perricone the other night. The claims his representative was making were way out there. She told a few callers that once they used his line they would not need a face lift. She kept shaking her head to face lift. Now, we all know once a face loses that much elasticity NO cream will correct it. The cream might make the skin softer, plumper and look prettier...that's it!!
The ticket is to take good care of your skin to postpone the sags and wrinkles.  |

| The "Advanced Radiance 4-pc. Skin CareCollection" sold at QVC that contains 6-oz nutritive cleanser; 0.5 oz vitamin C eye area therapy; 2-oz advanced face firming activator and 1-oz ceramic skin smootherat $140 doesn't sound too bad. But the bottom line is do they work? |

| I got a sample of the Dr.Perricone Ceramic skin smoother with my order a while ago. Now I've tried many other primers including anna sui, clarins instant smooth, and others but they all made my skin break out and my makeup melt within an 1 hour of wear. I tried this sample anyways under my makeup for a formal attire party yesterday and my skin remained smooth and oil free even after 5 hours of partying. Still no break outs today. |

| I tried a sample of Perricone Nutritive Cleanser before. It didn't dry up my skin while cleanse my face. But I still think Valmont Fresh Falls cleansing gel is better. |

I am so tempted to try DP's hair products, as i've been experiencing huge hair losses these days... but after looking at DP's photo... I am not sure if I should try his products... not too convincing!!  |

| Has anyone tried Derma-E creams that contain DMAE ALA and Ester C? I have used them for about a year and are excellent and inexpensive. |

I also used Perricone's line several years ago.
Forked out some major bucks...not impressed enough to repurchase anything.
On the other hand, totally pleased with JM Booster and several of the Revive products. They work for me! Therefore worth the bucks!

I used Dr. Perricone's products for several months. After his first book I started following his diet and buying his products. His diet was good and healthy but I ate so much salmon blueberries and strawberries (4 x a week) that now I can't stand salmon anymore. I still like strawberries & blueberries but in moderation.
As far as his creams, they did not make a difference in my skin and at those prices I would not repurchase.
BTW you can find them at TJMaxx on a regular bases. |

| Sadly, I agree with the rest that it's overpriced. I did see "okay" results. I was given a generous sample of cleansers, treatments, and moisturizers that lasted me a good two or three months. |

I went to Sephora a got a sample of his ceramic eye gel (or whatever it is called). It is $75 for a tube of it (like mascara tube only thinner and longer). I have used it for several days and it was ok but not $75 ok for me. I did not notice anything remarkable over other eye creams. I still like the one I ordered from a home based spa. My eyes are so sensitive and react easily to creams, gels, etc.. I am finally learning to get samples first!!
Perricone is not in my future, however, I did get a sample of Nuxe and mmm that was nice. Now I am interested in that line. I guess new thread is in order or search old posts.

Yes, I tried them right after I read one of his books. I was looking for products containing Alpha Lipoic acid, DMAE and Ester C. I didn't find them too effective but at least they didn't cause me to break out. I found Janson-Beckett's AlphaDermaCE to be much more effective and it contains all of these actives in addition to arigelene [hexapeptide3] as well as elastin. |
