Perricone or Isomers?

BetsyDoodle — Sat, 31 Dec 2016 16:54:04 GMT

I am coming to the end of my Isomers and wondered if I should try Perricone since it seems to be such a good deal. Isomers helped my skin but I don't see any fantastic results. Been using it for about a year, had many botttles, and kits and they are almost gone. Would like to know from people who have used Perricone, (I never have) if it is a yah or a nay and maybe if someone has used both, just want opinions. I know it is a subjective topic, but I will decide after I hear from someone who has experienced one or both lines. Thanks!

I have used various products from both lines. I am still using Isomers Fast Lift Eye Serum and Perricone Neuropeptide Facial Cream for my jawline. Other than those 2 products nothing impressed me. I use other products from different lines. You might want to consult Beautypedia before you spend your money.

Just my opinion, save your money. Over-priced topicals will NOT get rid of wrinkles, tighten or firm your skin. Ask any reputable Dermatologist.

This does look like the best deal I've seen for Perricone. Really tempting. I'm a Dr. Denese girl, I would never give up my facial pads or Hydroshield but I've always been curious about Perricone's moisturizers. I will continue to watch and research Perricone and DMAE.

I've been sucked in by these TSV's twice and his products do nothing extra special for my skin. I end up sending them back. In my opinion, there are much better skincare lines out there and at a much better price point. I use Signature Club A from HSN-argan and vitamin C products. I also use prescription retinol a few times a week. Dr. Denese neck cream is the best! I'm 54 and my skin looks amazing!

Don't waste your money on either line. I did. Never again.

@BetsyDoodle I know nothing about Isomers, although there are many on this board who use it and from what I can tell they really like it.

I have been using Perricone for two years and love it. It has done phenomenal things for my face and neck. Not only the look, but the feel of the products on my skin is wonderful. 90-95% of my skin care routine is Perricone. I do not use any of his cleansers, as I did not see a major difference with them, although others love his cleansers. And I do not use his "no makeup" makeup.

This past summer I traveled overseas for six weeks and decided to experiment with something other than Perricone (and also because I didn't want his glass bottles and jars to weigh down my luggage!). Although the other product line I used was good, I did notice that my skin was not quite as good as it was with Perricone. The most notable thing was that my pores seemed enlarged without Perricone.

The minute I got home, I got back on my Perricone regimen and my skin is back to being great again. I frequently get compliments on how clear and smooth my skin looks.

By the way, I am 71 years old. In my case, it did take care of the lines and wrinkles. I have very few at this point.

And although I can afford Perricone, I always take advantage of the great deals on QVC (like today's TSV!) or on his website and Zulily. In only one instance have I paid the full retail price for any of his products, and that was because I thought I still had something stashed away in my cupboards; when I needed it, it wasn't there.

Good luck with whichever product you decide on.

I do like Isomers, better than most I have used, but I have wanted to try Perricone and todays deal seems really good. I too can afford to buy Isomers and Perricone but why not buy them on sale or specials? I am 53 and I don't want to look 20 or expect unreal miracles. I am happy and proud of my age and just want to look like the best version of me.

Thanks to all who replied, I always like to get a lot of opinions and I also learn a lot from the lovely ladies on this forum!

Thanks and Happy New Year to all!

I've gotten noticeable results for overall facial lifting with perricones neuropeptide conformer and neuropeptide facial cream (a tsv from earlier this year), more noticeable than I received with isomers re lift amino serum. Fwiw, I also use nuface in the morning, three times a week. I've gotten nice results on undereye hollows with isomers re density eye and mezmereyz all in one eye.

I used the amino lift from isomers too and saw a little help but not much and I did like the redensify but I am out of it. Interestingly I was wondering about the NuFace, if you saw results from it, good or bad.

Hi @BetsyDoodle. I saw lifting with the nuface almost immediately. The fitted look does not last long at first (for me it was about three hours at first) but over time with use, the lifted look lasts longer and longer.

i wonder if isomers still has the battery operated microcurrent - I recall it was inexpensive and could be used on face, jaw and eye area without swapping heads. She used to show it on evine every now and then, but I haven't seen it in a long time.

I haven't seen it from Isomers, and don't recall seeing it on evine.com either. I know that you have to use the NuFace for it to work, just like anything else. I am tempted to try the NuFace, thanks for the review.

I use both. I try other brands but keep coming back to Isomers and/or Perricone to get my skin back after using something that congests it or it starts looking old again.. I feel that Isomers is probably better for acne prone, younger skin and Perricone is the heavy hitter for mature skin. I like both and alternate.with them. I would give Perricone TSV a try if you can swing the cost.

Thanks for your reply. I just ordered the TSV on auto delivery and easy pay. I figure I can always cancel auto delivery if I don't care for it, and at the TSV price and free s & h what do I have to lose? I agree that the Isomers products that I have used over the last year have done all that they are going to do and maybe this TSV from Perricone will take me a little farther in the anti aging fight. I have used a lot of different lines and Isomers has done more for me than any previous lines, it is just time to "step it up".

Any Isomers I have tried did nothing special for my skin. Tried years ago and did't get any special results. I tried it again this year and still the same, to me about the same as Avon, no special results. I have tried some Perricone. The moisturizer wasn't any better for me than a Good drugstore brand. I did try Perricone eyelid depuffer and it worked well, expensive. Haven't tried his most expensive items though.

I ordered this last night but cancelled today because of the reviews. I didn't see any reviews yesterday but they are there now. I was curious about these products but I'll just pass on this. Should have had the reviews there yesterday but thank goodness I decided to check today and it didn't ship.
