I've got two auto deliveries now, with today's TSV. Gives me the night and day neuropeptides, firming moisurizer, sub-D, and the new Conformer.

Am I missing anything?

I'm liking the Conformer better than cold plasma.

Your thoughts??

@1Professor Hey, there! Hi! I just saw your post. It did not notify me. Just happened to be poking around on the various forums. (We need our Perricone forum back!)

I like everything on auto delivery. You have great basics. Good for you! I too got the TSV. Did it at the last minute, as I already have sooooo many of the white tube, Neuropeptide Facial Cream, so had to check my supply of the other items. I know it is a great product, but it seems to be bundled with so many other kits that I think I will need to start putting it on other parts of my body that are sagging, just to keep up with my shipment of it! LOL!! Anyway, the price was just too good to pass up, even though I didn't need that particular item.

Are you missing anything? I would make sure to add an eye product in your regime, if you haven't already. The one that gets the biggest raves is the Acyl-Glutathione Eye Lid Serum. I have the 1 oz on auto delivery. It goes a long way....just one drop will cover both eye areas. My auto delivery is every six months, so you can tell how easily that must spread with just one drop.

A couple of other eye products that I have tried are the Advanced Eye Area Therapy and the Neuropeptide Eye Therapy. I like them both, using the Neuropeptide Eye Therapy on top of the Advanced when I do use them. But the Acyl-Glutathione is the one that gets the best reviews, with posters mentioning how it has handled drooping eyelids successfully. It is extremely nourishing to the thin layer of skin in that area.

Interested in your comment about liking the conformer better than the cold plasma. Do you mean the basic cold plasma that goes on first, before almost everything else in his line, or do you mean the cold plasma Sub-D?

I having been using the conformer every other day, alternating with the Concentrated Restorative Treatment. I use the regular cold plasma every single morning, before I put anything else on my clean face. It just glides on; so smooth and velvety. I also use the cold plasma eye, which works just as well. Makes everything else go on so easily. Definitely nourishes my skin. In fact, I like these two products so much that when his website had a super-duper sale Thanksgiving week, I stocked up on both of them. I never want to be without these two!

I love, love, love the firming moisturizer that was in the TSV and had been using it for several months, so that was a no-brainer, along with the Sub-D. Did you notice that you only need a very small amount of the firming moisturizer? Amazing how far it goes. By the time I have used these three firming products, I walk out the door feeling like I just had a face lift!

I ordered the OVM supersize (two jars) on auto delivery that was a special sometime ago. Just wanted to try this. When I got my first order, there was only one jar in the box. I called QVC, asking if I should send it back to get a new order of it, or just keep the one and they could send the other missing jar. They told me to send the whole thing back. Wrong decision! When I sent it back, they refunded my money because they had sold out of the duo. I called and said to send my single jar back and just charge me half price. But they couldn't do that. I thought I had missed out completely on that auto delivery, but Customer Service said that I just missed out on that one delivery, and I am good to go for all future orders.

Otherwise, hope all is well with you and yours. We Perricone lovers need to keep in touch!

@World Traveler

Thanks so much! Just ordered the eye treatment:

As to cold plasma, I did not mean the sub-D.

Since the conformer is "apply to clean skin" (as is cold plasma) I find this odd. How many treatments can be effectively applied on top of one another, when each is meant to be FIRST? Hmmm.

Anyway I finished my last little jar of cold plasma when the conformer came.

Since I have nothing for my eyes, this is complete, I appreciate your comments. Careful review in the mirror shows me I've got some sagging/creases starting. Yes, with Perricone, I'm finding a little goes a long way with everything. Learning curve.

@1Professor Oh, I totally agree! Everything you get, you are told to put on clean skin. But I take that to mean that you get rid of all your makeup, grime, etc., that could still be on your skin before starting, and then put in order of the protocol, how they show which comes first.

For those of us whose bathroom vanity looks like a Perricone sales counter, I just go by the protocol on the card that usually comes with each product of his, or when in doubt, thinnest product first (after cold plasma), with the last product being the thickest, then moisturizer.

There was a gal here on the forum a couple of years ago when I started with Perricone who mentioned that she puts some of the products on simultaneously. So she would put a drop of one product, then a drop of another product, etc., in her hands, mix them together, and then pat/press them into her skin. I usually do it one at a time, but if I am in a hurry I tend to do what she suggested.

So glad you got the Acyl-Glutathione. I think you will like it. Be sure to let me know, although it may take a while before you notice the difference. At least let me know how you like the texture and how easy it is to apply.

Last year when I was out of the country for six weeks, I didn't take any Perricone (because of the weight of the glass bottles/jars adding to my suitcase limits). Boy, did I notice a difference! What I used was great for moisture and soft body feel, but there is just something about the Perricone products that makes my skin look better, brighter, clearer, healthier. It was actually a very good test/way for me to recommit to the line. They are best for my skin at this time of my life.

When I go out of the country for the same length of time again this summer, I have decided to put Perricone into some plastic containers and just take a few of the basics. I really don't like to use bottles other than what the product comes in, but I try to travel as light as possible. And I refuse to go without Perricone for that length of time again!

Back to the TSV........you probably got the same email I did about how to use the products. Did you notice that they show the model NOT rubbing the daily facial cream (white tube) into her skin, like Dana shows, but rather patting/pressing it in gently (which is what the instructions printed on the screen and the product itself say to do)?

I used to rub it into my skin really hard like Dana showed, which seemed so against what my mother taught me about how to treat your skin (be gentle, don't tug). When I started reading last year what the instructions on the tube actually say about patting it in, I went back to doing that. And then when I watched that video in the email, that just reaffirmed my resolve not to do it like Dana shows. Don't need to tug/pull/stretch the skin any more than it does on its own with gravity!
