ReVive Skin Care
Has anyone tried this skin care line and if so, what is your opinion? Is it
worth my spending $85.00 plus postage to order it? Did it really make a
difference in lines or wrinkles, or is any good eye/skin balm going to work
about the same, in your opinion?
-I tried it and it was way too oily for me. I did not think it did much for
the eye area either. When I wrote to the doctor who formulated it, he said
to only use the face cream on the non-oily parts of my face and it's
benefits would creep into the other areas. Made no sense. Sadly a total
waste.
-I tried it and found the skin cream too heavy and the eye cream not
remarkeable. I asked my laser doc/derm about this line and he thought it
probably didn't contain enough of the EGH to make a difference to the skin.
Coincidentally, Time magazine just had an article on science versus hype in
skin potions, naming various brands that did not contain enough active
ingredients to make any difference at all beyond basic moisture. many of these
companies refused to comment or came up with some entertaining reasons as to
why not.
-I have all the products in the Re Vive line. My skin is norm/dry so the
products are not too oily for me. I like that the day cream has decent
SPF15 and the neck cream has AHA's and SPF. The night cream has AHAs as
well. The eye renewal seems to help the millia under my eyes, but does
not absorb well and tends to "bead." All in all I am satisfied with the
products but not as wowed as I'd expected to be after alot of the good
press the line got. There's been some criticism about the scent of the
products. The neck cream smells like roses and the other products
citrusy/orange like baby aspirin. You can request samples at
