Perricone MD: What I Still Love & What Failed Me!

[@alexdergacheff8135]

I agree with you, the cold plasma moisturizer is my favorite. I love the smell of it and the finish. It feels like a super heavy, balm like product but leaves my face matte which I prefer.

[@domingosantiago4813]

I am a huge Perricone user and fan of some items and I do use very affordable product in conjunction with Perricone the chia oil I did not purchase because well good molecules makes one for 10$ so and it’s mixed with bakuchiol which would be great with my nighttime routine with retinal my favorite Perricone that I have tried to abandon but come running back for is the acyl glutathione eye lid serum that thing last me minimum 6 months as I need so little I also still use brightening amine face lift and I use it with Geek & gorgeous c glow and it’s amazing together I also use there firming eye lift and Perricone a brightening eye serum again even tho they are small minimum 6 months I do like the cold plasma line as well pretty amazing results for me and there photo bright moisturizer spf originally had astaxanthin in it I too was skeptical of the protection but it does protect well if applied correctly and gives the skin an amazing glow yes Perricone is at luxury price but out of the luxury brands it’s definitely top notch in my experience I will say not all products are great but they have some solid winners and I too use all my discount codes to get the deals reality is if Perricone would get rid of the discounts and just lower the prices it would gain more attention but I get for many it’s not obtainable to commit to but my products last months so it’s definitely worth it for me I must also say when it comes to DMAE and micro current use them in the same routine ‼️‼️ dmae enhances micro current treatments I use NuFACE and I also use celluma and omnilux I also have platinum led for body red light therapy and revive light therapy Perricone skincare works great with at home devices in the morning I use my red light infrared devices follow with a NuFACE session then do my skin regimen which includes geek & gorgeous c glow followed with Perricone c ester topped with spf and the skin has been glowing ✨and very happy Perricone also is about educating on inflammation and the connection to aging and using vitamin supplements which I fully believe in and follow

I remember trying a plasma serum almost 10 years ago back when it was still in a dropper bottle and it was a radioactive blue color, and i loved it. I actually had forgotten the name of that product and wanted to buy it recently! this is a lovely reminder! thanks alice

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

Happy to help! 😁

[@Trotro2023]

I like the cold plasma eye cream. For a future video I would enjoy watching your overview of the Josie Marian argan oil brand.

[@perriconemdbeauty43]

I'm new to your Channel 😊. Great video. You look amazing ❤. I love the Perricone MD products. I only use them. My skin changed so much. I have Rosacea. My redness and inflammation is gone by 85-95% since I started using the products. I'm not a big fan of the Essential FX collection. Their is too much perfume in it. I love the Cold Plasma, CBD and High Potency collection. So good for my skin. I ordered the Vitamin C Photo Breigthening Moisturizer and the Essential FX Cleansing Balm. I will see how much I like them. To cover my redness, I use the No Makeup foundation serum. Amazing product ❤. I'll keep you updated. Have a great week.

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

Thank you so much for sharing! I’ve been curious about their makeup for so long, but it’s one of those categories where I wish I could sample it before buying lol. They’re so good about minis of their skincare; I wish they did minis of their makeup!

[@maryarmstrong2231]

I remember watching Dr. Perricone giving talks during the OBS pledge drives. (Yes, I am a genx 🤓.) I still use the free advice to this day! (Eat salmon, drink water and load up on vegetables etc) I was stoked when I saw he had started a skincare line until…I saw the prices😅. I love your take on all things skincare, and completely agree l, now that I have a a try of almost all of these products. I like the cold plasma stuff for my aging neck…BUT it is a sometimes treat and only when it’s on sale. I rely on other more affordable stuff on the regular. I appreciate you Alice. I will say the DMAE is always tempting as microcurrent on my neck scares me a bit!

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

That’s great advice! I love salmon so much oh my goodness lol. Yeah I’ve noticed there’s a lot more DMAE appearing in affordable products too. Perricone MD definitely has some competition these days, but I have a sneaking suspicion they also do have loyalists!

[@smalltowncasual4977]

You are stunning without makeup. Thanks for the review.

[@davidlloyd14]

Us boys are putting sunscreen on our scalps. Well. The ones with bald patches are. Love perricone sunscreen moisturiser too. But too expensive to slap on my bald bits!

[@davidlloyd14]

Love cold plasma. I’m in the uk where you regularly find it in tk maxx - or tj maxx over there- for £48. Bargain. Hunt it down! Worth every penny at that price.

[@janesmitson7404]

Kelly Driscoll really likes these Ginseng extract products, thought I'd pass along since you like ginseng. I've never used either. Hyggee Natural Repair Serum and Mixsoon Panax Ginseng Root Essence.

[@deborah972]

Your videos are so lovely to watch 🎉 ❤ xx

[@cypresse1620]

In your view - what product or ingredient that helps skin sagging or elasticity the best please?

[@kimberlykefalas9563]

And you know I love cold plasma. I got the essence in 21 days with points. I'm using it on a "copper peptides" morning with the Biossance serum and the Peach & Lily moisturizer. 😊

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

How is the essence?? I saw they also released a lip balm. Part of me is quite surprised that they’re still releasing cold plasma items!

[@amiraolivo6979]

I love perricone's books the science behind the scene

[@lisasmith7]

My Mom always said that. She said she lived on a farm in 1935. She baked the bread if they wanted it. She was thrilled to buy sliced bread!🤣⭕️❌️

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

In my constant state of overthinking, I’ve always thought the expression referred to the act of slicing bread vs being able to buy it. Ok yes, baking bread IS tedious! 🤣

[@skynebula11]

Your years in NOLA are noticeable…. Ya’all… lol

[@lisasmith7]

@AliceintheRabbitHole My Mom was so happy over sliced bread.😁❌️⭕️

[@skynebula11]

The “chapters” give you video a very professional appearance

[@skynebula11]

@@AliceintheRabbitHole wow...I just learned something...I never knew it was referring to having to bake the bread, which really does take all day. (I bake a lot.)

[@Lluvia228]

Love the video very detailed but honestly you without make up look 10 younger your skin looks perfect

[@LauraLVTGW]

You are wonderful!! I love how in depth you get, thank you for sharing your knowledge. I also have dry skin and had a lot of cystic acne until a year ago. I was diagnosed with PCOS years ago. Last year I started tretinoin and had a total hysterectomy and started hormone replacement. Ugh! The only product I've tried is the eye cream (from FabFitFun). I actually like Cosrx snail peptide eye cream better! Guess I'm just drugstore to the core! (ie. Cheap! 😂😂) Many blessings!!!💖💖💖

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

That’s a great thing! Money saved, and tbh, i remain fully convinced that a wonderful routine can be made from affordable products 😁

[@db-gb5xi]

I like your stories. Perricone and the alpha lipoic acid. I feel like the first time I ever heard of this brand that was the "thing" along with the omega oils.

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

Yep! I remember hearing very, very mixed reviews of cold plasma, which apparently smelled a lot worse in the past lol!

[@katymawson3701]

Thanks Alice and I love your stories!

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

I’m glad to hear it 🤣

[@tamizilla]

Hallo Alice, I am currently using the cold plasma eye cream, received it in a FFF box. I like it but out of my budget. I am looking forward to watching this series. ❤ Thank you.

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

It really is nice! I’m glad it’s not the only option though, for the sake of my wallet lol 😆

[@tamizilla]

@@AliceintheRabbitHole exactly 💯. Nice but I have options

[@kimberlykefalas9563]

I have the Vitamin C Ester cleanser and I quite like it.

[@mellowtrinidad]

I've always been curious about this brand. Thank you for your review. I'm getting this one to pass.

[@pamorama]

Thank you Alice I’ve always been curious about Dr. Perricone MD products but at the same time there are just too many good products that aren’t going to be the price of a car payment. I wish I knew the movie you were referencing, but I don’t. 😂

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

Oh haha, it’s the Dictator (2012). And yep, there’s a lot of good, affordable options these days - my wallet is grateful!

[@pamorama]

@@AliceintheRabbitHole I'm a big film buff, and that's one that escaped my notice. Thanks!

[@robicarm]

Thank you for your honest thoughts about this brand. This is a "prestige" line at Ulta and I always wondered if it was worth the price or if I would be buying into the label. The samples at Ulta sometimes smell rancid and they don't have samples in the Plasma line, or the No Makeup makeup. I really hate invest money in a expensive full size product only to take it back. I'm a Costco member and see this at times a fraction of the MSRP. If your patience Costco has discounts on top of the membership price, but when they ready to remove it from stock you get it for even less. I have the Firming eye cream in the green glass jar, and the Brighting ester C. I own a Skinceudicals AGE eye cream so it has a lot to compete with. I'm just waiting to carousel this into my routine.

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

It is soooo frustrating to me when Ulta sends out rancid samples. They need better quality control there, ick! But yep I hear Costco is a great place to get good skincare deals 😃

[@heathersargent289]

I don't see the comment I left about the HH Wonder GF serum being 20.90 on Amazon but they also have a set that comes with their new bakacuil eye cream and a mini of the toner sensitive version it's 25% off today and comes out to 32$ and yes I got it lol 😂

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

Ooooh interesting!! Let me know how it is!

[@noneofurbusiness5223]

@ 6.4 I have an electrical problem in my heart , so no I can't use a micocurrent devise.

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

I’m glad you know this!

[@johnmichaelarnaud]

I was low-key hoping you'd have tried the Nutritive Cleanser. I DESPISE the cloying, powdery scent (which even lingers, ack!) and the fact that it has sodium laureth sulfate, but I secretly like using it about twice a week for a deeper wash than my usual cream cleanser (Jordan Samuel Matinee Cream Cleanser, which I adore).

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

It is soooo stinky to me lol. I intentionally didn’t use it in the clips because I cannot bring myself to. It is now a hand soap. 🤣

[@johnmichaelarnaud]

@@AliceintheRabbitHole AHAHAAHAHAHA! OK, so you CAN detect scents, threshold confirmed. I once described the scent as "the place old people go to die," but that sounds so ageist, I try not to break it out all the time.

[@davidlloyd14]

Cold plasma is amazing. And if you shop around you can usually find a bargain. Well. I say bargain. With Perricone it’s all relative. Buy imo it’s worth it. My skin has never looked clearer and more refined.

[@lisasmith7]

Great reviews as always. Have an amazing week ❌️ ⭕️

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

Hope you have a great week too! 😃💕

is the beauty of joseon sun serum good?

[@tm5346]

I don't know how anyone can say the smell is pleasant on any of it it's horrible but this smells second round I'm waiting for a miracle

[@nicstyl]

The Cold Plasma had me so confused for a minute. On days that I would drive to my office, I would think my car smelled weird. And then it clicked and I realized that no, my face smelled weird! I just never noticed it until I was in the confined space of my car! That was a no go for me... ha!

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

Wait can you smell the copper peptide ingredient!? Ara can, but I still cannot!

[@nicstyl]

@@AliceintheRabbitHole Is that what that was?! I can never smell anything! I think my car is the key... that's also where I discovered that I was allergic to the scent of the "fragrance free" Skin Transformation Cream. Smell things in your car! That sounds weird. 😆

[@amyamy8177]

maybe a review of 'skinare infused' makeup like rms, revlon (the foundation you like), loreal pha and 4% niacinamide primer etc. Does it make sense to have such a hybrid product? i feel it would be more of a chatty video. On one hand i feel the makeup is on top of too many other products to work but on the other hand people frequntly find makeup breaks them out so some of the product must be absorbed (as another example makeup can be drying or almost nourishing in feel). It overall feels a bit nuanced to me like active ingredients in cleansers. anyway love the idea of re-reviewing old products

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

Yep, and a lot of it has to do with the ingredients in question. I see peptides in more and more makeup products, and given the questions around absorption with those, I can’t help but side eye claims on those in makeup products (wherein the formula is made to sit on the surface of the skin!) However, emollient ingredients certainly make sense (ie the squalane in the Revlon). We can see those working given their nature! I think you’re spot on to say it’s more nuanced!

[@TheFuzzieWuzzie]

Perricone moisturizer smells faintly of roses.

[@hhueter]

the cold plasma line sounds interesting. where's the best place to buy on sale? i have limits and 140 for a moisturizer is it.

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

It goes 50% off in quite a few Ulta sales, and also GMA deals, TJ Maxx, etc!

Interesting but it doesn't interest me I like learning about ingredients and combinations and formulations that help me hit my goals. I did try a sample of honey halo eye yummy. And got in BOJ ginseng waiting on Vegreen peptide . Keep the stories coming sadness is around me and I have to push thru this.

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

Can’t wait to hear how the vegreen goes for you! I’m sorry to hear about the hard times. Sometimes it helps me to focus on the good around me, somewhat to distract from the bad. Sometimes I just need to deal with being sad and allow myself to experience those emotions. But it’s indeed true that we always push through. Sending hugs your way! 🤗
