Who's Getting the Peter Thomas Roth TSV

Who's getting the TSV. I have never used PTR products, so on the fence about getting this since I don't know how effective this is going to be. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Just ordered. I've used his retinol serum for about a year now and don't know if it's working or not but my skin really does look better. The only way I would know if it was really working would be to have used it on only half of my face. I'm 67, fairly good skin but I was a sun worshipper in my youth so I have wrinkles and lots of age spots. I know the lack of collagen will never allow my skin to be truly young looking again so will settle for that fact. It's not a miracle but surely the best thing I've tried so far from the Q, with the exception of Diane Young products in the past. I'm not on auto-delivery because they always come up with something new & improved so won't be locked in to this in case something bigger & better comes up in the future. His products work for my skin more than any other brand. Good luck; if you decide to get it, I hope you're as happy with his products as I am.

@joann1218 I suppose you knew I’d weigh in on this. Who needs three retinol products applied separating when you can apply one? The before and after photos are only 1 woman out of how many? I’m not sure the results promised are across the board and $27+ a month for just one aspect of skincare is a big chunk of money.

My RX strength tube of Retin A costs much less...one product, one minute, higher concentration of Retin A.

His argument of buffered retinol? Anyone who finds Retin A irritating (like dd) can add a bit of moisturizer & blend before application.

Sorry, for me the TSV is an easy pass.

I pre-ordered the TSV. I'm on AD for the mega sized Retinol PM serum which is fabulous. I'm on AD for the TSV also. The neat thing about AD is that you can cancel it at any time if a better configuration of products come up. I'm 76 but look many years younger as I have few wrinkles and the skin is even in coloration, etc. After I use this TSV, I will determine which AD to keep. The value on this is fabulous, so signing up for AD in case you love it is a good move.

@joann1218Like Carolina925 I also use PTR's retinol. Add a decade to her age and that's me, age spots, other usual aging issues, too, but I still get compliments on my skin. Should say I like PTR and Perricone, too, but PTR is definitely less pricey and I really can't say for sure what would happen if I used just that line. I suspect I'd be okay.

I would like to add more for @Carolina925 that I always take the offer for AD if it's available because if something better hasn't appeared I can always cancel. We're not locked in. I know some posters are really upset when their AD's disappear, but I like the easy cancellation opportunity on my side and you're right that there's almost always something new and different which I think makes up for QVC and the venor company for cancelling me.

I've been using ROC eye cream, serum, and moisturizer with retinol and sunscreen for awhile - really happy with it. And it's cheap. Relatively speaking.

To be clear, not bashing PTR products. I love his Unwrinkle Peel Pads, use them every other day and love them (3rd jar).

I am still debating on getting it. I do have a few of his products and love them. I really like his FirmX Peeling gel and his dream cloud moisturizer.

Marshall's carries PTR products starting at $29. I've been tempted to try them but never have.

My derm told me that using retinol products, whatever they may be, is the most expensive and time consuming way of getting the benefits of using retinoids. In other words the most effective and economical product is tretinoin (Retin-A) in it's Rx form or buy it from overseas w/o a Rx.

Still sitting on the fence. I believe in his Retinol PM serum.
Love the fact the delivery system has no jars. Packaged the way they should be packaged.

I bought the Elemis recent TSV but it went back. Highly fragrant!
Too much fragrance so I will never know if it is a good line or not.

@SilleeMee

Do you purchase from Canada? If so, do you have a recommended company?

I buy my tretinoin (Retino-A cream) from AllDayChemist. I believe the company is located in India. @butterfly123

I know someone who has a prescription for Retin-A from her dermatologist, but she pays around $200/tube. I don't know how long the tube lasts, but the prescription is at Walmart, because her dermatologist said that was the cheapest place for getting Retin-A from a pharmacy in her city.

@SilleeMee Think I will mention the place where you get the Tretinoin. At least she should check it out.

@World Traveler

I buy the .05% cream (20g). Here is the current ADC price chart for it:

Pack Size Qty Price Per Pill or Unit Price Wishlist Cart

1 Tube/s	12345	US$ 5.63	10% OFFUS$ 6.26US$ 5.63
3 Tube/s	12345	US$ 4.79	23% OFFUS$ 18.78US$ 14.38
6 Tube/s BEST VALUE	12345	US$ 4.33	31% OFFUS$ 37.56US$ 26.00

A far cry from $200 per tube!

eta- For those who have never bought from ADC, they only accept echecks as payment. No cc or PayPal . Shipping is $15 for under $100 purchases then free after that. It takes about 3 to 4 weeks to get it delivered and there is no signature required upon receipt. FYI...echecks are one the most secure methods of payment, more secure than cc transactions.

I get my retinol thru my derm and it's about $25 or $30. The large tube last many months. I think PTR makes excellent skincare, but the best, full strength retinol is via prescription. I let it sit on my face for at least 30 min. and then apply Clinique dramatically moiturizing cream over it for hydration, along with Clinique All About Eyes rich hydration. I don't get why you need to put muliple retinol products on your skin each night.

I've ordered from All Day Chemist-just didn't like how long it took to receive my order and the shipping is super expensive unless you are ordering several things.

@GymBunny.

ADC does not sell retinol.

World Traveler — Mon, 06 Aug 2018 18:26:57 GMT

@SilleeMee Thanks! I will pass it along. Not sure what percentage the cream is that she uses, but I know she will LOVE not spending the $200.

I would never even consider spending that much money on skincare.
