I have stumbled on this via googling. trueradiance.net. It seems to be a small outfit, that uses large quantities of effective ingredients at very reasonable prices. I think the eye cream has had a mention here. Does anyone want to take a look a offer opinions? Question

The prices look good and their promotional blurbs have me sold, but I haven't tried the products yet. I tried to search "true radiance" here on the forums when i found their website but returned way too many results.

I think a few people on this forum did not have good results with the GABA range/ cream.

I think it is owned by a nurse. I know some of the women on makemeheal.com really like it.

i tried the vitamin serum a couple of months back, but did not see any improvement even though i fnished the bottle. i also received a sample of the eye cream but the texture was too thin for my liking. so, no re-purchase for me.

I use Aleta's products and love them. As does my skin. I played around with her serums and creams and liked most but the Gaba, though later I wondered if I should have been using it all over versus just on certain areas. I have settled on the True Radiance eyecream, LOVE LOVE LOVE this stuff. It has really tightened the skin around the eyes. Do note however, that I don't like thick creams. I tend to get milia around my eyes so for me, this is perfect. I also use the vitamin serum and the Youth cream. I've had no problems with the Youth but it does contain 4% idedebone (sp) and some people have trouble with that active. I had some problems with the eye cream if I apply it to my lids so I only apply it under the eye and next to the eyes. Hope this helps.

I have used the eye cream and the youth cream. I find them to be very nice products but not miracle workers but then what is?
I think that they are good formulations at very reasonable prices so if you are interested I would go ahead and do so Aleta normally gives a decent sized sample with each purchase and even lets you pick which one you fancy. Also Aleta is always lovely to deal with!

I have tried the eye cream. Agree, it is a nice formulation, reasonable price and delivers some results. It it take down some swelling under eye area. The tightening (firming) results were impressive for the money. In saying that, Dremu Air Brush works about the same for me at a much better price with my EDS member discount.

Hi Winnie,
The Dremu Airbrush does look nice but I don't care for Emu oil. I know, I'm in the minority. plus I'd rather give my business to someone like Aleta than a corporate entity. Very Happy

Respect where you are coming from BluesHeart Smile . Again, I thought her eye cream was very nice.

I love the eye cream. I found it really helped the puffiness above my eyes, but I don't know if it would be a great eye bream for wrinkles. I posted before and after photos on page 3 of the link yogi posted above.

I bought a full size eye cream and vitamin serum. I received a sample of the golden serum, and GABA. I did not care for the GABA. It smelled terrible. I didn't finish the GABA sample. The golden serum did nothing for me after I finished the sample. I now already finished the vitamin serum and don't think I'll reorder because I did not see any difference to my skin. At first I thought I saw something (thought my skin was brighter) but the results did not remain. I am on the fence about the eye cream. It is great with reducing puffiness, so much so that my eyelids almost went from double to single. I did not see any improvement in terms of fine line reduction. I may just try other brands of eye cream.

I don't think that any product suits everyone but all I would say is that her products are not expensive and so worth a try if you are curious about them. I have definitely paid a lot more for far worse products in the past.

I agree Pandora. I've heard people mention in this thread that they found the product good for eye bags. I don't have bags but I do have dark circles if I don't use a good product and the eye cream helped my circles 75 percent. I initially bought it for a broken capillary and ended up loving the tightening around my eyes. I do want to point out that I don't have crows feet or lines under the eyes. So maybe thats why I was so happy with it. I think there are many factors that go into how someone reviews a product. I think facial structure plays a part, as does age, and last but certainly not least, what are the expectations someone has for a product. For me, I found two products that I feel give me good results for a minimal amount of cash outlay. Always a good thing. Very Happy

Most people are probably already aware that I really like the TR eye cream. As I have said before, it is one the best eye creams that I have found. Every one's needs are different so understandably it does not work for everyone equally. That being said, I get bored and still like to try other eye creams here and there - have yet to find one that tops True Radiance.

Another great product from True Radiance is the HA Serum. Again, it is one of my 'more' favorite products in the HA line-up.

I tried and DO NOT care for the GABA Freeze. It did not agree with me, irritated my skin, made me itch, etc.

A big thank you to you, fairlady! If not for your initial review and Yogi confirming, I'd not of tried this eye cream and her other products. What about this HA is different and better, in your opinion? Thanks.

Hi Bluesheart and you are so welcome - I am glad the eye cream is working for you too.

I like Aleta's HA Serum for a few reasons. It is 70% HA which is quite high. This makes it very effective when mixed with a moisturizer. I find this HA serum is more easily absorbed by my skin, the serum is silky smooth but not watery, leaves my skin feeling very soft & replenished. This serum also contains DMAE & Glycerin while most of the others are just distilled water and HA. I have tried PSF, Diana Yvonne, Skinbiology, etc and for me this one is superior.

HTH

fairlady, thanks so much. I think I will try this when I place an order next week. So you mix your ha with your moisturizer versus putting the HA on first, then adding the moisturizer?
