Drying & Sensitizing
For something that's supposed to help "recover" skin, this was very drying and irritated my sensitive skin. I'm starting to learn that even products that claim to be ok for all skin types, even sensitive skin...really aren't. So far, a serum from a different brand has been the only product similar to this one that hasn't hurt my skin (though that brand's other formulations do irritate me...).

No improvements
I used it religiously till the end of the bottle. My skin is olive and I’m 30 years old. There were no improvements in my very fine lines. I don’t understand why people seem so excited about this product. It was expensive, and unfortunately it did not deliver any results.

breaks me out badly
I thought this product might be doing some good, but it didn't. Neither did the essential serum I wasted a lot of money trying these products several bottles several months, and I would return this if I hadn't thrown away the box. Oh well. I guess it doesn't work for everyone. I'm sticking to a slightly simpler regimen of some acids and retinol and a few other fun products. No more overly expensive growth factors and stuff that just ends up breaking me out.

Like Essential Serum, this contains a fragrance that is a common allergen
I have developed a contact allergy (severe eczema) to limonene (aka Linolool) and both this and Essential Serum contain it. It is an unnecessary fragrance and a very common allergen. Please take the limonene out (of all products)!!!!!!

SkinMedica TNS Recovery Complex
Ive tried this product before after ordering it through another Internet provider. It irritated my skin and made it overly tight and crepey. I read that products could be tapered with by some Internet companies (the one I received actually had the product in the pump and the packaging was not intact) and started ordering from LovelySkin. I switched to NeoCutis with the same ingredients and loved it, but thought I might give the SkinMedica another try. I am having the same problems, burning irritated skin that is uncomfortably tight. I am sticking with the NeoCutis products. They are very effective and gentle on my skin. I am also very happy with LovelySkin and have never had a problem with my orders.
