Perricone Question

World Traveler · ‎02-02-2015

I noticed that the latest four-piece offer from Perricone that Dana demonstrated had the Neuropeptide day cream in a jar and not a tube. My auto delivery of that product is usually quite runny, and sometimes I spil some when I open the tube. It just easily squirts out. Anyone know if the product in the jar is the exact same thing?

It has the same name, so I assume it is. Maybe people complained about the runny cream and they are now putting it in a jar to prevent it from accidentally running out when the cap is taken off. You don't even have to squeeze the tube; it just squirts out.

When Dana was demonstrating it, I couldn't see clearly if it was thicker like most regular face cream is or if it was still thin in texture. Think if it comes separately, I will purchase it next time instead of the tube.

The Neuropeptide facial cream in the tube is not the same thing as the Neuropeptide Firming Moisttuizer in the jar.

Oh, okay. Thanks for straightening that out for me. I kind was hoping it was the facial cream in a jar. Keep accidently letting the cream run out of the tube. Gotta keep that thing upright! ha!

My NP cream in tube isn't that runny, but I think I once had a batch that was. I shake the tube a bit as I think sometimes the cream separates a bit. I think the tube is the best delivery system for this cream. I think the one in the jar is the moisturizing cream. It might firm more than the face finishing cream. That is what I meant by some of the products doing thae same as another, but in a different way. I use AG cream, then AFFA over that. The AFFA firms enough for me, so I wouldn't want to use the neuropeptide face firming moistuizer. If I need more moisture I like Nutra Bisse the CURE moisturizer

If you are talking about this set below then yes it looks to be the same cream in the tube...They have both the moisturizer AND the facial day& night cream in jars in this set.My guess is they are in jars because it is a small amount and you would use it faster before the efficacy was compromised by the light and air.

Midnight is entirely right. In this set they have the Neuropeptide cream in a little deluxe sample jar, but if tou look to the right in the link midnight sent you will see the neuropeptide face moisturizer. They are 2 different products. BTW, I do not like the neuropeptide face firming moisturizer, it is too heavy for me. But I love the NPface cream. I use that little jar to take on trips, so I do not have to take the big tube of cream. I just refill it a little when I travel

Yes, that's it! Then it is the same stuff I get in a tube. I personally would prefer it in the jar so I wouldn't have to be so careful with the tube when opening it. Thanks!

Just tried shaking it really hard but it still runs out too easily. The first time I tried this product last December or January, it was not runny like it is now. Like you, maybe it is just the batch I got. Still works fine, so I guess I will just have to work on my balancing act once I open the cap! BTW, I love the evening NP cream.
