ok was just about to dive in and place an order and then thought well its been months since all the raves, so hows it still going for everyone? I figured I'd ask before I take the plunge, since so many times, acutally too many times stuff works so wonderuflly then stops. |

I'm still loving the Firming Complex -- my pores definitely look smaller. But I'm going to use SkinCeuticals CE Ferulic (and Phyto+) when my Super Serum runs out ONLY because it claims to offer better sun protection. It's a little oilier, and if I don't notice my freckles fading faster, I may switch back.
SkinCeuticals allows more personal "tailoring" of one's skin care regimen, if you know what I mean. But having to deal with more layers is inconvenient.
Bottom line -- I've liked the IS Clinical products I've used so far and may try some of their others. |

I've used only a sample of the Active Serum but didn't find it to be any more effective than my CSRx or Jan Marini AHA serums. So, based on that experience, I would not buy it at that price. *ducks* I do really like the texture though.... |

I initially purchased the Super Serum and still am using it. I like it well enough but may try something in place when it runs out (only because I love to try new things).
I am on my second sample of the Firming Complex and although I do like the texture I'm not completely sold on the product. I personally don't see any real changes in my skin other than my skin seems alittle smoother. It's quite expensive, so for the money I guess I was hoping it would help fade some hyperpigmentation. Also I found out through emailing Skinterra that the % of glycolic acid is low , 3%. I just feel for the $$ I could purchase something with alittle higher percentage of AHA/BHA's that would speed the cellular turnover. I don't know, still thinking about the product. It does have a really nice texture and my skin hasn't broken out or reacted negatively--which is a major plus! It's definately on my list to try though. Hope I make sense. |

After reading the raves here on the forums, I just ordered my full size of proheal and hydracool after only using the samples for 1 week. Noticed the difference after the first day and by the second day my skin had completely turned around from inflamed rosacea, product induced acne, red spots from picking, large and angry pores, along with dry spots from trying too many samples from cellec-c, entire kinerase line, TNS,super cop, you name it. Instant reuslts, my husband was so impressed he is using it (He's the one who kept insisting I buy full size), my son tried it this weekend home from college and he wants my samples because it helped his acne-prone skin. I am sold and love it and I have only tried 2 products from that line. |

I love the IS Clinical line!!! My only problem with it is the price. I have so much going on in my life right now (expenses) that I have to cut back somewhere. I hope to reorder the Firming Complex but if I had to make a choice I would spend the money on my sick puppy. I found the Active Serum awesome. The HydraCool for me is addictive but somehow find the price of it TOO EXPENSIVE for the ingredients in it. I am still waiting for Carrie to help us out here |

Thanks so much for all the information. Seems everyone loves the active serum and the firming cream. Also seems either people see dramatic results or they dont. |
