The Best!

Quick Take: my favorite
I have been using Dr. Perricone for over a year now and I am addicted. The first time I started using this system, I saw immediate results with lines in my skin within days. If you are looking for a new skin care system...try it!

Great products, skin looks and feels great
-09.16.12
Quick Take: excellent, worth the cost
I was using a skin care line that just wasn't performing as I would have liked. I have read Dr Perricone's books before and agreed with his philosophy. I decided to try a trial kit to see if these products were a good fit. I have been using them for 2 weeks now and my skin looks and feels beautiful!

My skin feel different
-09.03.12
Quick Take: good value, travel-friendly
Yesterday I bought this set, recommended by a good friend. This morning the first use and there is a significant difference. I have oily skin and half the day I have my face shiny and now run my hand across my face and it feels soft and fresh. In a few weeks I'll post my comment as I've done.

I'm hooked
-08.31.12
Quick Take: phenomenal, game-changing
The most knowledgeable sales lady that I've ever met Mindy, at the Prudential Center store in Boston, convinced me to try the trial set. I was interested in the eye serum but she said try the whole line and gave me samples of the Eye product. My skin has never looked so good so quickly. I have gotten so many compliments...even my husband noticed and I caught him using my citrus face wash with the Clarisonic last night...it cleared up the whiteheads by his nose and all his blackheads by morning. He's a believer too and I said that when I buy the big bottle next week he can use it and the toner too. He was really happy about that.
Yes, this will be an investment but for the first time since my Clarisonic purchase...I think it's worth it.

Love this! I'm 35 years old, with pretty good skin tone and resiliency to begin with however I noticed results within 2-3 days of use. Firmer, more even skin tone. The finishing lotion is fabulous. I'm addicted. Best advice - a little bit really does go a long way!

I like the products

but I'm not sure they're doing any more for my skin than the Philosophy products I've been using for a while. Have only been using them for about 10 days, so the jury is still out.

Overrated!
-05.24.12
Quick Take: overrated, overpriced
Although this is a good deal, (compared to the price of the full size products), I do not understand what all the buzz is about. I really wanted to believe that paying more money for cream would somehow make it better, unfortunately, this is just as good as the way chaper stuff from the drugstore.

-04.01.12
Quick Take: preventative
I have been using this set faithfully twice a day for two weeks exactly. The products are minimally packaged and in dark plastic to protect against light. The Perricone specialist at Sephora recommended this set for the large pores on my nose and other texture issues. I am 59. My skin looks better in a hydrated, unified kind of way thus far, right after applying the products, an effect I can get with other nice skin care lines. I have not seen any knock-my-socks-off improvement, as promised, yet. The DMAE was touted to be the game changer. I plan to use the whole set to its finish and then judge. One suggestion I have is to Dr. Perricone to not load up his sets with a large cleanser, which is the cheapest product to manufacture and of the least impact as the ingredients are on the skin a very short time. I would rather get more serum and cream products for my money.

Great way to try these products!
-03.27.12
Quick Take: tightening, preventative, dimishes fine lines, no residue
This sample set is a great intro to the Perricone skin products without having to spend too much money. Even the small sizes go a long way, especially the moisturizer, which is the real star of this set. I would definitely invest in the full size product of the moisturizer, and probably the toner and cleanser as well. The activator is fine, I just don't really notice much of an impact on my skin, though it might be more beneficial to others. But overall my skin looks and feels great!

Moisture at last!
-03.14.12
Quick Take: tightening, preventative, hydrating
I know this sounds trite, but I had tried everything on my "maturing" skin. My skin had become dull, dry and from the first night I used these products, I began to notice a big change! My skin is almost dewey! I'm not sure this is doing much for my laugh lines or crows feet, but the dullness and dryness are gone! I'm hooked! Time to invest in a full size regimen!

Every PerriconeMD product I've tried has been fabulous. I really like this "sampler" because I use the smaller containers when travelling.

For about a week or two this stuff worked really well on my skin. Then all of a sudden, I dried out like crazy and the moisturizer made my skin extremely oily. I have normal type skin and I rarely react badly to a regimen. I really wanted to fall in love with this kit and after reading a million reviews and waiting months before making my final decision, I'm really upset that I went through with it. There are a lot of other things that you can try that's better than this kit. I definitely do not recommend the moisturizer.

Acne prone but dry skin
-03.03.12
Quick Take: moisturizing, gives a glow
My skin is super sensitive, and it;s needs change pretty dramatically with the seasons. But one things always remains constant - 60 seconds with the wrong product on my face and I break out. From cleansers to night creams I have to be VERY careful what I use or else it;s acne city with pimples and redness that can last for weeks (redness MONTHS).
I have used Perricone nurtive cleanser and it was wonderful. So I knew the cleanser would be good. Last month I ran out of my cleanser and the usual moisturizer I use (madefromearth) and my skin was so dry I needed something FAST - I couldn't wait for my usual moisturizer to arrive in the mail.
With that, I purchased this kit because it was less than the Perricone moisturizer by itself and I also needed a cleanser. I figured if the cleanser was agreeable to my skin the moisturizer would be too - and I only needed something until my usual moisturizer arrived....
I am SO GLAD I made this purchase. Every product is not only great (I never use a toner - this one is excellent- not too drying and has made a difference in my skin texture) but they have worked wonders on my stressed skin. I don't know about looking more youthful but about 10-20 minutes after using the entire regime each night (cleanser, toner, serum, and then moisturizer) my skin DEFINITELY has an inner glow and feels moist and plump in a great way.
I sometimes get a little oily in my t-zone, the moisturizer is a little thick -great for NYC winters and what I need most of the time, but if I notice my t-zone getting a little oily looking I just skip apply the moisturizer on that area for a night or two and then can return to using it all over.
It's a great set if you can afford it - the size of the products are pretty generous - I've used mine nightly for a little over a month now and there is still a good deal of product left - I'll get another 3-4 weeks of use before I run out easy.
Oh! And I also use a dab of the moisturizer on the tops of my hands - THAT'S where I can see a more youthful look.
I'll be repurchasing this kit for sure.

Quick Take: preventative, dimishes fine lines
I really like this kit.It made it so much easier to start again my beauty regimen. I Used to always be very strict with my beauty routine but had abandoned and I was wary of having to pick out new products since its time consuming. This kit had all that I need to start again and the products are great. The wash does not dry out my skin, and the moisturizer its light and smells great. I recommend highly.

Not what I expected
-01.09.12
Quick Take: tightening
I obsessed over reviews for a long time and finally settled on this product. For the first few weeks, I really liked the stuff; it made my pores smaller, my skin felt tighter. After about 3 weeks, my skin dried out completely. My skin has never been as dry as it was using these products. The moisturizer worked, but then my skin would become too oily for my taste. I'm pretty sure this line works for others, as the reviews say. But I don't think my skin was willing enough to let this stuff soak in for as long as it did. I guess it was too rough for my skin and after a while, my skin just refused to work with it.

Quick Take: preventative, reduces redness and pores
I love the Perricone products. Just sometimes can't afford them. Was able to start using them again with this set. It makes a difference for large pores and facial redness if you use the facial firming activator every day. A big difference!
