Way over-priced!!! Got 10 samples to keep my skin renewed under cost. THANK GOD!!! I draw to this product after visually noticed my blotchy skin restored its moisture with no flakes came off overnight. Its EPF firmative agent might have helped restore my dry skin and healed it. It doesn't sting on my sensitive combo skin on top. LUV IT!!!

I'm really loving this creme. It has a great texture and light fresh scent. It moisturizes my combo/dry skin while absorbing quickly and leaving a nice matt finish! I want to try La Prairie's new SPF 30 moisturizer but I will still happily repurchase this!

The cream has a great gel/cream texture and lovely scent. Absorbs nicely and leaves skin soft. My breakout prone skin hasn't had a single problem in over 3 months of use.

I can't give it more than a neutral rating, however, because it's so expensive, and I haven't seen any noticeable improvements in my mid-forties skin.

A lovely, but over-priced moisturizer that didn't meet the hype suggested by the Saks saleswoman.

I was trying to buy the oil free version of the Sensitif. However, it was out of stock. So I got the cream version instead. Suprising enough, this product is not greasy on my combination, acne-prone skin. It absorbs easily. My skin is well-moisturized. I like the refreshing citrus fragrance Revive uses in many of their products. However, I think the cheaper moisture renewal cream from Revive actually works better than Sensitif. Not sure it is because the moisture renewal cream also contains glycolic acid.

Outrageous price! I got a nice sized sample. Very good, but I'm sure there is something in the cream (light reflecting particles, like EL Spotlight) that makes your skin glow. I want to glow with skin health, not overpriced product.

I've only been using this for a couple of days, but I really like it a lot so far. I have rosacea, sensitive, acne prone skin. So, I am very leary of creams. But, this one is very light & smooths on quite nicely w/ a slight tackish feeling, but then absorbs nicely & looks glowy. Great under makeup. UPDATE: HATE it.

I received a sample sachet of this to try out and I do think it's quite a lovely moisturizer+sunscreen for my dehydrated combination skin. I havent really noticed any major differences (with their EGF claims and that). The SPF is a factor 15, broad spectrum with active ingredient avobenzone. Unfortunately I have taken a lippie off because I don't believe the price is justified, plus SPF15 is quite disappointing and many say avobenzone is not photostabilized.

Yes, this one is a winner. It's powerful--I applied at night and woke up with amazing skin. I use the Renewal as a daily moisturizer/treatment, and the Sensitif only when I need some serious repairs. Sensitif is light and it almost appears like it's not working when you put it on--I got no instant radiant glow at all--but give it time and your skin will slowly start to change--like you're growing youthful dewy skin. I'm a tough critic and it passed my test (I used free samples for months) so I think it's most definitely worth the splurge.

Literally miraculous. I got hooked on this product via sample, and for the week I used the sample my skin looked the best that it ever has EVER. Then slowly, my skin began to go back to dull, shiny in areas, rough in areas, acne here and there, yucky mess. So I broke down and bought a jar ($180) and I am really relieved. This makes my skin perfect in a very short amount of time, and I can't wait to see the long-term! Worth every penny.

This stuff is a pocket-book-buster but I can't help myself, I am hooked! I got a sample in the NM beauty week bonus and forgot about it until I ran out of my usual moisturizer. Well, WOW, was I impressed. I have reactive, acne-prone, and red, irritated skin that is both dry and oily. This stuff did wonders for my complexion and skin tone. I thought it would be way too heavy, but it absorbs like a dream and doesn't make me oily at all. In fact, I started using it every day. The texture of it is like marshmellow fluff (light and airy but creamy at the same time) and the scent is citrus and refreshing.

If you want to spurge, this is definitely the stuff. If only they would make it less expensive!!!!!

I love this cream. It is not only perfect for sensitive skin, it literally transforms the quality of the skin. I have never received so many compliments in my life. People go on and on about how my skin "glows." I use the entire Revive line now, but even when I just used Sensitif alone, the results were dramatic. BUT, the line does work miracles, especially with the serum and Renewal Cream at night.

Sensitif is a perfect base for under makeup. I used it to prep for my wedding day and everyone complemented me on how glowing and soft my skin was. I had never looked better.

This is an excellent day cream. Contains EGF , as well as an SPF of 15. I find it a rich, moisturizing cream as well, great for the cooler months. Smells great as well. I find a little of this product goes a long way as well.

I LOVE this cream! I have oily/combo skin but I use this in the morning and it is not greasy at all. Even though they call it a cream and the texture feels like a thick whipped cream, it goes on smoothly on the face and absorbs instantly, leaving my face supple, soft and glowing. Yes, glowing. I kid you not, this is the best day cream I have ever used, and I have used a lot. It only takes a few days to see the result-softer smoother skin, less imperfections, dark spots fading. It truly is amazing. Pricewise it's up there with La Mer at $165 for a 2oz jar, but I like this more than La Mer and I feel the results from this Revive cream is much more pronounced than La Mer's. Definitely HG material, and even though it's uber $$$, I think I will keep buying and using this.

I tread gingerly on the line when it comes to super high end skincare. With all the marketing hype and superlative so-called research-based claims, it's quite difficult to make your way through the myriad choices of what you will be putting on your face twice a day for the amount of money that is required of you.



In comes the double-pronged dilemma of generous samples - glad that you can try it before splurging uselessly, or sad that it will cost you so much to have found something that seems to work wonders on your skin.

I admit, I was a neglegent adolescent and I attribute such bad past behaviour to current skin problems I am now plagued with - cyclical breakouts resulting in dark spots, some scarring, dryness and a seasonal, sporadic t-zone interspersed with some blackheads around the nose.

With that said, I began using Cellular Repair Cream (with Biotherm's Source Therapy) and noticed a world of difference - smoother skin with lightning of the dark spots. My face was visibly more "alive", felt softer and smoother and I was completely sold because my face seemed aglow and much improved.


I don't know if this worked in effect with Source Therapy, so I tried it alone and it still made my skin feel wonderful. The cream simply absorbs into the skin, as if your skin simply drinks up the cream. It also smells lemony - a very pleasant lemon that isn't too tart but is rather refreshing. Needless to say, I am precariously perched, trying to decide if I should continue with this and plunge to try other items from this line or continue on the never ending quest for more affordable solutions.

This is one of my staples. I am 25 years old, with combo skin. Since I've been on the pill, my skin has gotten photosensitive and have ugly sun spots. My skin is blotchy and uneven in texture (darker around the mouth, chin, below the nose) and this cream really helps to make my skin more even texture, softer and whiter.

It is a very light cream, does not feel greasy, smells like orange peel (I love this!) and does not make me break out or make my T-zone more oily.

Also, it has SPF15, so its good.

I got a sample from my NM bag. Is a elegantly textured cream. Unfortunately, I started breaking out from it the same day I tried it. I think it is for a more mature or dry skin. I have sensitive, combo skin. I can't attest to its treatment qualities. It's a pricey product, so I'd try before you buy (esp. if you are oily or combo).
