    Dr. Brandt Microdermabrasion

    expensive but great product

    This is a great, expensive product that stays in my beauty drawer all the time. Whenever I need a glow on my skin, this is my one of the rarest poduct I have benn reaching. One side effect, the crystals are too harsh for my sensitive skin, it makes my skin all red for a few hours. That is why I am using it before bedtime. Instead of using it a couple of times a week, I stick with weekly usage beacuse too much exfoliation is not good for your skin in the long run. (that is what my dermatologist tells all the time) you can see the difference on your skin the next day but it is definitely not the same thing when you have a professional dermabrasion. Although they say home usage 3-4 times is equal to in office treatments, for me this is comparing apples and oranges. Especially if you are visiting a medical spa, the results can nort be compared. having said that, this is a very effective treatment for home use, maybe not for rosea skin or very sensitive skin. The price seems to be on the high side but you use very little product and it lasts for a long time. I remove one star for the price. (this is one of the products that you should try at home first to see how our skin reacts if you have a sensitive skin like mine)

  • Peter Thomas Roth Laser-Free Retexturizer Exfoliating Scrub

    It is a great product but if you have dry areas on your face, use it only once a week and don't forget to put moisturizer.

    Limited color choice

    Very limited color choice and caused me breakouts. Too expensive.

  • Peter Thomas Roth Anti-Aging Instant Mineral SPF 45

    I don't like wearing sunscreens but this mineral powder sounded very easy to appy. I bought one, tried and did not like it at all. First of all, it is so drying, the brush itself is scratching my skin. I never understand how much I need to put on my face because sometimes the applicator lets me use a tiny amount, the other time it is too much product that it is everywhere, sink, my clothes... I decided to give it another try, got the powder out of the applicator and put it in one of my used mineral powder box. I was so suprised to see that the product was very very tiny. I gave it a try with my favorite brush but I did not like the feeling of it on my chest or my neck. I ended up throwing it to the garbage. The idea of mineral sunscreen is great but in real life, it is not practical at all. I like PTR products for sure but this one won't be on my list for sure.

    I tried to use it on my face but it felt kind of greasy, I ended up using it for my body and it did the trick. It is great.

    Firming but did nothing on dark circles

    I do not have too many wrinkles around my eyes but have dark circles. This cream helps with firmness but not for dark circles.

    Nice one if you have the right color

    I couldn't find the one that matches my skin. Don't cover my blemishes but didnot cause any problems. I won't buy again.
