Creme Reverse question

Barbara Mom of 5 — Sun, 22 Feb 2015 19:06:18 GMT

I am wondering if anybody can share their opinions regarding the Creme Reverse. Is this more of an anti-aging skincare treatment, or more of a moisturizer..... or some of both? Also, any descriptions on whether this absorbs well into the skin, or kind of sits on top of it, would be appreciated! I've been watching the Skinn presentations and ordered the makeup TTV today. Last month I ordered the skincare TTV but had to send it back because several items arrived damaged, so as yet I have not tried any Skinn, but am tempted to try the creme reverse as a "first".

I wanted to order yesterday's TTV but we lost power (due to the winter storm) on our phones, cellphones, and computer so wasn't able to.

Thank you!

The Creme Reverse is one of my favorite products. It feels so good going on and absorbs well. My experience is that it doesn't just sit on the skin. It's more of a gel-cream. It contains some very expensive ingredients. It's part of the Deep Wrinkle Protocol series, which is the best of what Dimitri offers. Even though it's called DWP, you don't need to have deep wrinkles to use it. For some users, like me, it's got enough moisture and no additional moisturizer is needed. For someone with especially dry skin, they may want to layer a moisturizer over it or add a couple drops of their favorite oil or Skinn Lipid Infusion to bump it up.

I like it. I switch it out with my other products. I rarely use the same thing day after day.

I think it's more on the treatment and moisturizer realm....it absorbs quickly and doesn't leave a film. I don't find it too heavy.

I'll be 62 in April...I have dry skin and not a lot of wrinkles.....slight loss of firmness.

JLF has posted an accurate description above. I currently use the DWP grouping, and it is Dimitri's premier line of skincare. I recommend it highly and do tweak mine with a drop of Lipid serum mixed with in my hand. You're fine with Hydroshield under it as long as you dry down and absorb fully between layers. I will say that the best results have been achieved here by using the whole DWP regime as they are formulated to layer together. My skin just glows using this lineup. The only thing I would caution on is if you should decide to layer another moisturizer over it, make sure you've allowed the Crème Reverse to fully absorb and dry down first or pilling can occur.

gokat - are you using any of the Collagenesis Stem Rejen Elite products? I have been, but now that things have settled down a bit and I have time to think, I am wondering if I need all that I've ordered. Don't get me wrong, I like the Stem Rejen for my face, but I'm wondering if I would eliminate that and just stick with all DWP, which I have too, if that will be enough. Maybe I don't need to be layering Stem Rejen and Creme Reverse. It's always easy for me to get carried away when I make a new discovery.

OT Question Please ~ The Creme Reverse can be purchased alone, and on AD. Does it ever go on sale? If it does, I guess I just don't catch it. I just want this one product. Thanks

There was a 3 pc. DWP kit that was on a promo last weekend. It contained the Creme Reverse, Eye Creme Reverse, Translucence Resurfacing Concentrate, and sample of Stem Rejen Elite for $75. That was a great deal. If it was offered on A/D I would have gladly signed up!

Here's the deal, JLF. I did not switch to the Elites as they aren't rich enough for me. We discussed this at length last night on catlover's thread and have found that dimethicone is much higher in the deck of ingredients than in the prior version. Just an FYI. BUT based on that info, I would NOT recommend your using both...as the barrier the dimeth sets up will negate the absorption you would want. Also, the ingredients in the DWP Crème Reverse items have that firming/lifting ingredient that shouldn't be mixed with the original (now updated) Collagenesis products. I've been using straight DWP since the AR serum TTV and my results have been pretty phenomenal. My skin just glows!! HTH's

The standalone item has not gone on sale thus far. Your best bet is get theeself over to the bay. There are plenty of sellers that sell them sealed and fresh. HTH's

Thanks so much! I see I'm going to have to make some adjustments.
