For me, it was La Prairie skincare, and some surgical removal of moles that left big scars.

You?

I had lazer treatments to remove those red/blue veins that showed through the skin. On one occasion that I did this, I was left with hyperpigmentation all over my right cheek.

Zo skincare, Perricone, just to name a few and yes the beloved 302 skincare on the other forum made my skin a mess.

For me it would also be LaPrairie. I bought many products from La Prairie and didn't like it and it is very pricey.

Agree about strivectin. Had me fooled - great gimmicky advertising. I will never get taken in again.

It must be Guerlain Orchidee Imperiale Cream (Original one). The effectivesness is not obvious...... I just felt nourishing on my skin but no other effects (brightening/moisturizing/firming.............)
How can it cost a lot???

Hi Lara.....the Cellcosmet and Valmont just did "nothing" for me. Did not improve my skin in any way whatsoever. The Cellcosmet Eye Cream that many on this forum really like was actually too "drying" for me. For the price of Cellcosmet and Valmont I want to see visible improvements and I didn't.

La Praire and SK II for me as well. I did not have any obvious improvements with these...although I will say that I was in my mid 20s when I tried them so that is probably why.

I do not mind paying a high price for products that work. I'd rather spend $200-300 on a cream and love every application, then spend $60 and throw the cream out.

I used half of the Cellcosmet eye cream, half of their Night cream and half of their Dual Exfoliant and have not noticed any effects on my skin at all Confused

As for the Valmont, I have mixed feelings about the whole line. I love their masks (except for thier Nature line), Valmont Hair line and I believe that their Glacier Eye cream is the absolute best! But I'm sure one can find cheaper alternatives to some of their products.


So the right answer would be " IN COMPARISON to all the other eye creams that I've used, Valmont Glacier Eye cream is the best"

On the other hand, Valmont Galcier Serum was a big waste of money! (600CAD)
