Perricone - High Potency Face Lift
-05.04.13
Quick Take: hydrating, moisturizing
I have been using this for at least 5 years. I am 68 years old and people cannnot believe how beautiful my face looks. I contribute it to this product, along with, Dr Perricone's other products that I have been using faithfully. His products do everything-for me-that they claim. Stop by Sephora for free samples and see for yourself

Great Serum
-02.23.13
Quick Take: great
I've been using this serum every morning for a few years now. It's the one thing I consistently use. It's not a miracle treatment, I don't think anything is, but it does give my skin a nice glow. I notice when I don't use it that I miss it.

Quick Take: fabulous
I love this product, Of all Perricone products this and my facial toner are the two I cannot do without. I have used Perricone for years and I'm always told I don't look my age. If I run our of this, I can see my skin lose firmness. I have to have it! It is a must have!

Good foundation but nothing to write home about-- not worth the price but no negative consequences from use other than a diminished bank acocunt.

Good stuff!
-09.12.12
Quick Take: moisturizing, smoothing
Four stars because of the price/effect ratio. Good stuff, helped smooth out the "smile bracket" around my mouth. Be careful if you're oily or acne prone, like I am-using too much caused a couple of blemishes, but using only one pump under an oil-free moisturizer worked quite well. All in all, this product will help-just keep in mind nothing works miracles! :)

The High Potency Amine Complex Face Lift leaves your face soft, smoothes out facial wrinkles and provides an excellent base to apply primer and foundation. The 'lift" effect is subtle so far. I love the product and would buy it again.

Loving it
-03.23.12
Quick Take: dimishes fine lines
I've been using this about 3 weeks now. I have sensitive, oily skin that is prone to acne and with being close to 40 looking for something to help reduce fine lines and prevent wrinkles. So far this is making me happy. Mynskin feels smooth and my complexion is starting to look a little refreshed. I would recommend this.

-12.27.11
Quick Take: tightening, dimishes fine lines
I've been put off by the price and had to stop using it several times when I couldn't afford it but I keep coming back. There's just nothing I've found that smoothes and tightens my skin like this. I can go without foundation most of the time when I use it regularly. I can use very little and get big results - so It lasts a long time.

I have used thie product for about three years. I love how my skin feels with this item, even during our very dry winters in the desert. I choose to order this product through Sephora because I get better service through them than I did through Perricone's site using their auto ship plan.

Not sure if this is making a difference
-09.25.11
I just turned 45 years old, and have some light sun-damage spots and mostly under-eye wrinkles. I've used almost the entire bottle but can't really tell if this product has made any difference. Was hoping for a more dramatic change, considering the price. Not sure I will purchase again.

A Nice, Lightweight Treatment

Quick Take: tightening, preventative, dimishes fine lines
This is a good summer treatment, not as heavy duty as the Acyl-Glutathione, but still good.Has a bit of a "fishy" smell, however.

The results have amazed me
-05.25.11
Quick Take: tightening, dimishes fine lines
I started using Perricone products after being a faithful Philosophy user for the past several years. I am turning 55 in two weeks, and I am not happy with the effect that gravity is having on my face. Also, for all the years I spent in the sun without suncreen (before it was invented....), I have much sun damage to my skin. I mean, MUCH. I started using this product along with the
Acyl Glutathione cream and Cold Plasma Sub D. The last two products I added to my routine simply because the Amine Complex Face Lift had such immediate and obvious positive results. After six weeks of the combination of these products, I can honestly tell you that my skin looks ten years younger, maybe more. Pores have shrunk, skin tone is glowing and even, tightened and lifted, tiny lines disappearing, lines around my mouth and nose are softening and lifting, jaw line is more sculpted. I think the key for older women like myself is also not to wear too much makeup. I wear a tiny bit of mineral powder and a little blush, light eye makeup (I am very fair and so I have to color my brows and use mascara and a little eye shadow, but not much) but the overall appearance of my skin is what people see rather than what little makeup I wear. I'm not kidding ladies....yes, it is pricey, but it's an investment. I still cleanse my skin with Philosophy products and use their Hope in a Tube, but I have a feeling one of these days soon I'll be migrating over to Cold Plasma Eye. I'm hooked, and the results speak for themselves...everyone is noticing.

ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL
-05.07.11
Quick Take: dimishes fine lines, tightening, preventative, perfect product
I'm enthralled with Perricone MD. After using another skin care line for two years, I noticed that my skin had lost its glow. While people usually think I'm 10 to 15 years younger than I am, I wasn't getting as many mistakes. My Sephora consultant offered a variety of products to try, including two Perricone MD. The first time I used them, my skin immediately responded. My husband noticed the "glow" that same day. Luckily, I had a birthday a day later. He went to Sephora to buy everything I needed. Perricone MD products are the best I've ever used.
As the Sephora consultant eventually put it, my husband was a salesperson's dream, since he came home with just about everything Perricone MD, some of which turned out to be redundant. I want to take a moment of your time to recount an experience I had with the Sephora staff regarding my husband's purchases because the Sephora staff was extremely honest, even though they risked losing a fairly large sale. I wasn't quite sure which products should be used in what order, and when. After consulting with my Sephora consultant, who then consulted with other Sephora members, I was told to contact Perricone MD directly. I really appreciate that the Sephora staff didn't try to answer questions they were unsure of, but instead, had me phone the actual source. In my opinion, this is a huge plus for the entire staff at Sephora, who were all honest enough to admit they didn't know the answer to a few of my questions. This speaks very highly of Sephora's ethics and honesty, in general. They could have made up something, they could have guessed or they might have even sold me more product. Instead, they chose to take the high road, directed me to Perricone, and told me to return anything in excess of what Perricone staff thought I should have. Very few stores are this honest these days.
My skin looks great. Here's the products and schedule:
I alternate cleansers, using The Nutritive Cleanser (more calming), and the Citrus Facial Wash (for humid days). Both are effective gentle cleaners, easily removing environmental pollutants. The Citrus Facial Wash seems stronger, and probably cleanses pore more thoroughly. If you're only getting one cleanser, go for The Nutritive.
Serum Prep firms the skin, and readies it for the next step. Cold Plasma follows, and offers a boost to the effectiveness of the products which follow. Sometimes, I substitute Firming Facial Toner (day) or Pore Minimizer (night, and shake well) for the Serum Prep. Both work to minimize pores, especially in hot humid weather. The Intensive Pore Minimizer and the Advanced Face Firming Activator can be purchased in The Power Couple Set, so you can save $50 when you buy both. If you're only buying one of them, I'd recommend the Intensive Pore Minimizer since I think its results are superior.
For firming, sometimes I use High Potency Amine Complex (day) and HP Evening Repair (night), using them at the appropriate times on the same day for the best results. On the days I use the High Potency treatments, I also spot treat with Neuropeptide Facial Cream around the corners of my mouth to help prevent lines from forming. I top this with a Perricone Moisturizer.
For skin miracles, I can't say enough good about the Acyl-Glutathione, which is truly amazing. My skin perks right up and radiates a nice healthy glow. It looks younger, tighter, and firmer, and all around better. I use this following the other products, or even alone. It's wonderful. A little goes a very long way, so a jar should last months. I had a tiny squint line by my nose and it disappeared the first time I used it.
I've chosen Face Finishing Moisturizer, which absorbs quickly and leaves my skin soft and glowing. My skin looks and feels well hydrated.
I also use the Neck Cream occasionally, and just added the Cold Plasma Sub-D which immediately firmed up my jaw line. I saw results the very first time I used it.
For my eyes, I first use the Vitamin C Ester Eye Serum. A little of this goes a very long way. Vitamin C encourages cell renewal. I then alternate between High Potency Eye Life and High Potency Eye Treatment, followed by Neuropeptide Eye Contour, which is designed to combat lines, and puffiness. While I didn't have any specific problems with the skin around my eyes before starting this, the area around my eyes looks better, perhaps lifted, and definitely younger. I'm very pleased with these products. The Potency Eye Lift and the Vitamin C Ester Eye Serum are currently available in the Eye Lift Synergy Set. You save $50 buying them together.
All totaled, this might seem like a somewhat expensive proposition. When broken down, it doesn't really cost as much as one might think. However, it's worth saving for, since the condition of the skin on our faces is important and something we can partially control. Every single one of these products should last for months, and compared to other brands, given the limited amounts of products necessary to achieve great results, compared to cost, is not as expensive as it might first appear. While the Acyl-Glutathione looks to be fairly expensive, I've been using it for a few weeks now, and can barely see a dent in the contents in the jar. The Vitamin C serum will probably last a year, as will some of the other products. The only product I use a lot of is The Serum Toner, and that's because it's applied to a cotton pad before use.
I thought my skin was in excellent condition, but after using these products, it looks much better. These are the best products I've ever used, and the results come quickly. I recommend everything reviewed above. There's nothing better.

Quick Take: tightening
I love using the Perricone MD products. They do cost a bit, but they are pure and very effective. I am seventy and look in my fifties, sometimes younger, with no other intervention.
This product lifts and tightens nicely.
