JUST WONDERING what's everyone's thoughts on the supersize recent tsv? These are my first PTR ITEMS to try. I don't do well with retin a. But the last year have had success with Arcona advanced a serum. I could use it under my eyes and did not need a moisturizer over it. Never had a reaction but noticed clearer, former skin, tightened pores and overall radience. I know how important retin a can be. What are your thoughts so far. I'm really not to impressed so far after a week of using. Good thing is I haven't broken out or peeled yet!

I love it.  I have too much skincare, but I needed to replenish the unwrinkle and the retinol.

 

It takes far longer than a week to be impressed with skincare.

@winamac1, Do you use the Unwrinkle pads on the same day as the Retinol Fusion?

I have tried many PTR products.  As far as his retinol goes, it has not done anything to improve my skin.  The skin creams don't do anything at all for me.  I'm very disappointed in the cellular enriched cream as well.  I purchased two large size jars, that  I wasted ALOt of money on.  They simply do nothing to improve even tiny fine lines.

 I will say..the Pumkin peel is very good, it takes off any flakes, and exfoiliates well.  I like the peel pads also. The 3% glycolic cleanser is very thorough.    I especially like the spf foundation.   I've just not ever seen any help with the skin care creams or eye creams.

SkinMedica 1% retinol has given me the most results for achieving a glowing, luminous skin.  I do peel like crazy, but then I exfoiliate.

The problem with the super-sized jars is that they lose potency quickly. As PC always tells us, the packaging needs to be airtight or it won't work. Makes sense to me (finally!)

Hi J lou.  I do, but i know some are fearful to do that due to peeling.  I actually have super sensitive skin, but his products do not cause me to peel or break out.  I use them on the same day.

I think I will start using it that way.  My skin can be sensitive at times but it is pretty conditions to AHAs and retinol products.  Thank you!
