Amazing Results!

Quick Take: good value, travel-friendly
I just hit my 30's and my skin changed the texture was different and my pores got bigger and oily. I never really had skin problems before other than a zit once in a while. I decided to invest in this little starter kit and I have to say I am extremely pleased. Used it one time and my skin looked brighter. I think today was the first time in a long time I felt I could walk out the door without wearing concealer must admit this is an amazing feeling. I really am enjoying looking in the mirror lately because of this little kit.

Actually good !
-04.17.12
Quick Take: good value, travel-friendly
I am normally a philosophy customer, but I felt like I needed something a little stronger.
I am not sure if this product is actually stronger, but I think I would definitely purchase this again.
I've been using this kit 2x a day for the past month, and since I don'y over saturate my skin my moisturizer, it will definitely last 2 months. I could probably do without the mist/spray/toner, but everything else is fantastic!
The smell is also great and I would say using the cleanser with my clarisonic is a winning combination. My skin looks pretty awesome !

Smell of Citrus, Feel of Clean

Quick Take: good value
I worked with a Sephora consultant at our local store when I specified I needed something to address anti-aging, as well as minimizing pores. She recommended this starter kit, which is CRAZY affordable for such great products! I have used it faithfully and, after "breaking" my skin in for about a week, I can definitely tell a positive difference in my skin's condition and appearance. Plus the orange peel smell is therapeutic! :)

Quick Take: good value
I was looking for a cleansing system that wouldn't irritate my skin and help me "age gracefully." I've used this system for about a month now and am very happy with the results. My skin is brighter, not oily or greasy feeling at all. And, it smells great!

Quick Take: good value
I tried this for about 2 weeks and really didn't see an improvement in my skin. I read the reviews & always wanted to try Ole, but I was rather disappointed. The smells weren't too great either. Personally, I need something with instant results & less steps.

This set is a pretty awesome deal for Ole Henriksen. The moisturizer is very good. The textures of all the products are amazing. The only thing which I don't like is the scent. It's the kind which either you will love or hate.

beautiful glowing skin!
-02.17.12
Quick Take: good value, amazing results, smells great
After much research, I ordered this kit for my 48yr old sister. I am glad I did because she absolutely loves it! Within a week her skin was transformed. It looks fresh, clean, & glowing! One of the best things about this kit is the smell... amazing. I just ordered the Ole Henrickson anti-acne kit myself as I am 33yrs old with unfortunately, adult acne. I will give a review on that product as soon as I see results, but all in all I have high hopes for these products after seeing how well the anti-aging kit has worked for my sister... unbelievable!

Quick Take: good value
I love it so far. Been using it for about 2 weeks and my skin feels smoother and moisturized. I can tell the kit will last me a very long time, which I am grateful for. I already know that I will re-purchase the kit because it seems like a very good value.

Quick Take: good value, moisturizing and fresh
I have the Orange Vit C collection and the blue packaged moisture cream. However, I bought this during the winter because I needed a bit more moisture. The kit is phenomal value and I love everything in it.

Feels Great Awesome Value
-02.07.12
Quick Take: good value
I love this set. The price is great because it gives you a chance to try all the products together. The moisturizer did not last 2 months for me though, like it said it should. I love the way it tingles as it works. It is absolutely minimizing wrinkles.

Smells and feels amazing!
-01.30.12
Quick Take: refreshing
Bought the starter kit. I am switching from Neutrogena face bar and Oil of Olay with 15 SPF as my regime. I just turned 40 and I was considering purchasing Oil of Olay Regenerist line. I have been addicted to Sophora so I decided to try this skin line based on Kimberly helping me. So far, I love the foaming face wash and the sprtizer. I LOVE the citrus smell. I am glad a little goes a really long way becuase my only gripe so far is it is pricey. But my skin is responding pretty well to this so I'm going to keep up with it. I got a 1 oz of the moisturizer for free (like $40) with my 100 points reward.

One of my Favorites!!!!
-01.28.12
General Experience -
I love it. Immediately fell in love with all of the products in this set. My favorite of the group... which is so hard to pick... is the Express the Truth face cream. Wish it was less expensive but I love it enough not to care.
And the eye cream... a little goes a long way.
Tip -
I keep the scrub and mask near my tub, that way whenever you spoil yourself with a bath instead of a shower you can use it after your face is all steamed up and it feels like an indulgence.
Final Thought-
Try it, if you don't like it use the return policy...

Quick Take: good value
Excellent Products! I was looking for a new skin regimen and the first time I used this I could feel the softness in my face. I bought due to the overwhelming reviews and chose the starter kit. From now on I will be buying full size products. Little goes a long way and I love the smell of their products.

Good intro to this line of Ole
-01.19.12
Quick Take: good value
I tried the other starter kit and decided to try this one. I like the products very much and it has a nice scent. The only thing I probably wouldn't buy again is the spray. I don't really see much of a difference in my skin when I use it. The scrub is not much of an exfoliator but it is very moisturizing which I like. The only other thing I would have liked to see in this kit would have been the daytime moisturizer. All in all, well worth the price.
