Hi Angel,
I would like to help you, but I have not tried any of the products you listed.
Have you tried Teamine? I would like to get more reviews before I purchase it. I received 2 little samples from my doctor. I used up one packet and am considering purchasing the product, but it is so expensive that I am still hesitant. It is $65 for a 0.5 oz bottle.

Hi Angel,
I got the samples from the dermatologist's office who did one laser facial treatment for me. They are in Chicago, Illinois. If you search in Google and type in Teamine, you will find a lot of online stores that sell the product. My doctor's office charges $65 for 0.5 oz bottle, but I found it online for $50. If I decide to buy it, I will get it online, not from the doctor's office, unless they will match the online price (I doubt it). I think that the skin care products are too expensive. I try to find the cheapest price I can get for the same product. Hope it helps.

Okay this is from my own experience but on the Kanebo Quick Radiance-run run as fast as you can away from this product. At least I should have anyway. Different products work differently on different people so this advice might not apply to you at all.
I was on a Kanebo kick where I bought a ton of things from them, their 2 step cleansing process, the emulsion and lotion and the Quick Radiance and a few other things. I never got as far as their jars of moisturizer creams or I would have had to mortgage by house. Very Very expensive and it wasn't like I was using a cheap line before that. Anyway I actually liked how my skin felt after using the products. Especially the emulsion and lotion moisturizing. And loved the Quick Radiance. It was for helping get rid of dark spots or pigmentation on the skin and actually seemed to be helping. Then my skin started to rebel at the Kanebo so little by little I had to return things until all I had left in skincare was the Quick Radiance. I used it on some hyperpigmentation on my cheeks, chin, and a small spot above my lip. Well it REACTED. I was getting these horrible odd breakouts that wouldn't go away and seemed almost to be infections of some sort. Large pimples and these sort of under the skin abcesses. And on my chin this large round raised knot about the size of a 50 cent piece.  That was it! I went quickly to Kanebo to return Quick Radiance. And it took 2 or 3 weeks for my skin to calm back down and look normal. It wasn't for me, and I hate that in the Quick Radiance because it actually seemed to be working on the pigmentation. I will mention that I have a few Kanebo things that I really like and kept, none of them skincare though. Their brush type concealer is the best I have ever used for my undereye circles. I kept 2 duo set of eyeshadows that I also like and also kept the sponge chief. In fact I recently bought a new one to replace my first one that was getting a bit old.
So if your skin likes this line, I would have to say that it would probably be great for you, after that mortgage of course.  And this is coming from a gal who likes and uses several La Mer things which are not cheap themselves. In fact when I was in Saks getting the Kanebo facial and makeover my regular long time La Mer Rep saw me and said hi. When I brought all the Kanebo stuff back she told me that she had thought that the Kanebo was going to be too reactive for my skin. They aren't allowed to actually tell you those things though I guess when you are buying a competitive line, but sheesh couldn't she have passed me a note.  She is great though. So I wanted beat on her here.
So in my long-winded way on the Kanebo Quick Radiance would be that if your skin can tolerate it, it seems to me to have been a really good product. But if your skin can't tolerate it for whatever reason, it is horrible and as I said above run now and very far away. |

I've used the Neutrogena Advanced Solutions facial peel. It's an amazingly good product for one that you buy at the supermarket!
I tried it at the same time I started using Neutrogena's Healthy Skin Anti Wrinkle Anti Blemish cleanser.... Was out of town on business and I had forgotten my toiletry pouch so I had to run out and buy stuff.
I wasn't in a position to be too picky and I do trust Neutrogena. To my surprise, both were keepers....
I know Allure gives a very high rating to the Anti Wrinkle cream, but I've never used it... |
