Not sure. I'm not ordering. I like some of his products, but I'm using some other brand(s) right now including some other retinol even though I use his from time to time.

As much as I love his products, they’re too pricey for me. I’m happy with what I use now. Enjoy if you order.

No. I'll stick with the more mid-range brands, because I'm convinced there's only so much lotions and potions applied to the skin are going to do. I'm not thinking the return on my investment is worth it for the more pricey products. Besides, past a point, it is what it is. Nothing is going to make any of us look a great deal younger than we are other than possibly cosmetic 'procedures'.

No, I don't want to know what it is! I have so many skincare products to use up.

I used his retinol for several months, took before and after pics and didn’t see any difference...I think there’s very few products that really make a difference...just not worth my money, I’ll save it for when I need some cosmetic surgery😂

I"m ordering. I have a lot of Retinol Fusion PM, but this is a great value, and I want to try the other products!

I have used PTR retinol serum; it didn’t do anything for me. Runny expensive water! I am using what is left of my 2oz bottle on my stretch marks to lighten them up coz I don’t want to waste it. They look exactly like the before shot, no change whatsoever.

Thank you all! I'm just so undecided! Always looking for that miracle! Lol!

I'm not so sure how effective that serum would be because of two reasons...first it is in a dropper bottle and secondly that dropper bottle is blue glass which offers no protection from damaging light. Between these two retinol-damaging factors, I'm having a difficult time believing that this serum could give any positive results. I would never buy a product like that one, simply based on the product packaging.

If ANY skin product manufacturers product actually did what they say they do, the whole world would know about their product and it would be all that anybody would buy.

NOBODY has the secret to eternal youth - at least not yet.

Cleansing and moisturizing on a regular basis will help us but there is nothing that makes wrinkles go away.

Not only that, but any photographer or Photoshopper can see that they use different lighting in the before and after photos that the skin care presentations use. Sometimes you can tell that the expression on the model's face is slightly different, which can exacerbate wrinkles. The light angle is almost always different; different lighting angles can create shadows in the wrinkled areas which make the lines more pronounced.

A close friend of mine has worked for a very, very high end skin care and cosmetics company for 35 years. She told me that 2% of beauty product costs go into product and 98% goes into packaging and marketing.

I have super sensitive skin - some products are gentler than others and I use them. But for the most part, these "super products" aren't going to create a miraculous change in our skin.

His retinol is 1.5%, I prefer something a little stronger, you can find them as much as 3% like Regenerol serum from Dr Dubrow.

SilleeMee — Mon, 06 Aug 2018 22:48:06 GMT

The thing about retinol's efficacy, no matter what strength, depends a lot on how it's packaged. If the bottle, vial or tube allows for air or light to reach the active retinol then that will deactivate it rather quickly. So if you think buying a higher % retinol will give you better results, look at the container it comes in first. That container really does matter when it comes to retinol.

I know there are people who love the Retinol Fusion serum but I'm another one who really didn't find it did much of anything for me (not that I'm expecting any miraculous changes). And I'm not interested in spending that much nor interested in getting the super sizes.

Free shipping on auto ship the first order ONLY?

No. That's a deal killer for me.

Re: Anyone getting the Peter Thomas Roth TSV

Not only no free shipping after the first shipment; the auto delivery is every 4 months, so if you elect the 5 ep you will be making a double payment the 4th and 5th payment, unless you have a Qcard and opt for three ep, then your payments will be higher

Re: Anyone getting the Peter Thomas Roth TSV

I've noticed that on some other AD's recently too. They don't emphasize it, but they mention free shipping on only first AD shipment. (I think it was the same on something from Philosophy.) Also, in my case I never need another shipment in 90 days so I skip the second shipment and maybe more.

I like PTR's products. I have and use his retinol line, but I'm not buying the TSV.

Not only don't I need anythig at this time, but personally I have no interest in buying these mega size products. It may be a good buy, but I find that I need very little product when I use his line. These huge sizes would take me forever to use up.

One of the reasons I use Retin-A. It has scientific proof behind it.

I have had to switch to a retinol for my neck and decollette though. I couldn't tolerate Retin-A there anymore. I alternate every other night with a Vitamin C, E, Ferulic acid. I believe Vitamin C has results also. Right now I am using Drunk Elephant, but I have used other brands. My next will be Paula's Choice to try. I liked Skinceuticals, but the price seems ridiculous. I have also used Timeless, which is the most economic.
