Questions for Perricone Neuropeptide users

krissie622 — Tue, 27 May 2014 19:54:37 GMT

I recently received the upcoming Perricone TSV of the NP Firming Moisturizer and the NP Facial Cream. I've been using them for 5 days. Since it's two separate products, I would like to hear other people's experiences with each.

For those who use the NP Facial Cream, which some call liquid gold, what results are you seeing and are you expecting to see? From the reviews it seems some people see instant results. And the woman who presents the Perricone products is frustrating in that (to me) she never really explains what each line does and why, and why it's different, etc. She just talks about what people noticed. She seems very vague.

Are you mixing these products with other lines? Using them both AM and PM?

I am in the last days of my first 8 weeks with the Tria laser, so probably not the best time to judge new skincare, but the TSV price is really good, so I took a chance. The only other Perricone product I have tried it the BPOE, which does nothing noticeable for me. The NP Facial Cream's smell is so offensive that it makes me gag, but the moisturizer is really nice. Still leaves my skin dry, though, and I have to add something on top.

Anyway, I'm trying to learn about this line and see if makes a significant enough difference in my skin to warrant the price, and I would love some feedback from those who have/are using it.

Krissie,

I use the Neuropeptide Firming Moisturizer and love it.

I've also tried the NP Facial Cream and I didn't think it was worth adding to my regimen or replacing something else for it. Personally, I like using Cold Plasma + Acyl Glutathione and then a moisturizer so I stick with that combo for the most part.

What is BPOE?

Hi DualCoasts, thank you for replying. The BPOE is the Blue Plasma Orbital Eye.

Like DualCoasts, I use the neuropeptide firming moisturizer and love it. I think it normalized my dry skin. Unless your face actually feels tight (then you might need something over it) I'd try using the firming moisturizer a few times by itself and see how your skin reacts. It definitely sinks in right away, but my skin feels plump and hydrated after I use it (not greasy, slick, or sticky).

I tried the NP Facial Cream once (well, more than just once) and couldn't get past the smell. I don't care if it's a miracle, I'm not going to use it.

I have pared down to just a few products, the amine complex for day and the evening repair at night (followed by the NP firming moisturizer).

I occasionally use a few isomer products (only because I was dumb enough to watch the presentations). They will never replace my Perricone products. I don't try much new stuff any more (even Perricone) because I haven't liked anything new that I've tried for the last couple of years. I stick to my tried and true now.

I have been using the NP Facial Cream since 09'. This product has kept my face very firm I bring it down past my jaw line I have no ""droopy"" looking skin. This is my Perricone can't live without product. I also like the NP Eye Contour my eyes always looked rested.

I've used the NP Firming Moisturizer for years and LOVE it! It's the perfect choice for my combo complexion. When my upper cheek area gets a little dry I apply a couple of drops of Chia Serum over the moisturizer.

I used to use his NP Cream for seceral years now. I find it gives my face a tighter look. I haven't used the cream in a while since I recently had Ulthera done. If you are looking for a firming product, his line can't be beat IMO!

Sorry for off topic, NYCNoey, what did you think of the Ulthera? Can you tell yet? Do you think it's a good option for droopy eyebrows? Tia!

I am a huge fan of the NP cream as well. I have a drier skin so after I use one of Perricone's treatment products I use it. As my moisturizer I love, love, love their facial finishing moisturizer. Best moisturizer I have ever used. As Lyn mentioned above, I use the Chia Serum sometimes too...or another facial oil I love...mix it into the moisturizer depending on how my skin is feeling, time of year, etc. Would never be without this line in my skincare arsenal.

I have been using Formula 15 and the neuropeptide firming moisturizer for 2 yrs and LOVE it. I was using it with Algenist and ran out of the Algenist and found that Perricone worked much better without it. So now I am only using Perricone and have added the neuropeptide facial cream to my routine. I agree that the description of use is a little goofy especially if you look at what they say on the website. For instance, the website seems to indicate that Formula 15 should be used on targeted areas but when I called them to see how and when to integrate the facial cream they said to use both all over. So ????? All I know is that it works, I love it, wish it wasn't so expensive, but my face looks like I am 40 and I am 61. To answer your question, I have seen the following 1) greatly reduced deep lines around upper lip and from corners of mouth to chin 2) fine lines have all but disappeared 3) dewey feeling to the skin 4) firm, firm, firm skin. Everything feels lifted that then reduces sagging especially around jowls. I am so happy with results that Perricone is in my monthly budget right along with the electric and cable bill....... hope you experience the same results.

Help............where do I apply the perricone neuropeptide facial cream? All over my face and under my chin or just in the forehead, jawline and under my chin? Thank you. OR DO I APPLY TO ALL OVER MY FACE? Thank you.

RibbonsRosesRainbows — Wed, 09 Jul 2014 02:01:04 GMT

I have to mark that today was my first use of the TSV kit of $199...........I should just age and not worry but my mother and grandmother ruined my thinking saying we have to look young so they are gone and I am here alone trying to get over not having wrinkles......because I am not doing shots or going under the knife.

The smell does not even last long at all but I am going to the hospital to see a baby being born or visit with the mom to be and her mother so I guess they will notice if I smell like a fish....lol

Thank you for writing this so I understand that you use the Neuropeptide Facial Cream all over your face and then the Neuropeptide Firming Moisturizer and then go to bed? I wish it had spf in it for outside when I don't wear makeup...........thank you for posting.

I use the neuropeptide facial cream and really like it, since I am in my mid 50s and tend to be a bit jowly. My skin is not dry so it works well for me as a moisturizer, due to the rice bran oil it contains.

I also recently purchased the new neuropeptide night cream. It just arrived the other day and I've used it twice. I like it so far, but I think it will take a couple of weeks to see the true firming.

Thank you for your post. I can't believe it is 3:13 in the afternoon but I did not get home until 3:30 last night........I need to get up and wash my face and put on my Perricone creams.......For skin washing I am using Erno Laszalo phytel oil and dry skin soap.......then applying my TSV Perricone.

I personally need firming everywhere so I apply the NP facial cream, sparingly, all over my face.

I have been using the TSV $199 of the Perricone for 15 days and I can tell a nice difference. I don't know what I will do when this offer ends.........I get three more shipments......one more this year and two for next year..........but I love this product and really I wasted money on everything else I have used.........knowing this makes me look better........I should have already been on it but easy pay makes it nice to be able to budget. Really happy I got this TSV. I am looking forward to my next kit that will have the eye cream........I just don't see how this $240 cream will last me for 6 months........?????
