Customer Reviews

Love it!
I have been using this product since 2004, and I have reduced all of my facial wrinkles without any new ones! Like anything else, using the product consistently is key. I use it everyday. Also, I have used the 2X and 3X - I started off with the 3X and after two years, I moved to the 2X and now alternate between the 1X and 2X every other day, meaning I use AFIRM daily without every hardly missing an application before bedtime. Also, I have not had the need to have facials regularly. I only get a facial once in awhile (maybe twice a year). This product line is great!

Great Product Line
I agree with the last reviewer that if it is used consistently it does work. I love this stuff.I have previously used Estee Lauder Idealist which was ok for giving my skin a nice smooth matte look when I was younger and because I couldn't always afford it I also tried many drugstore brands and many of those have an annoying fragrance and would make me break out in cystic acne which I never had a problem cystic acne but I do break out around the chin, cheek and forehead area. And so started looking into using something with a good amount of retinol and some lines are so expensive. So in 2005 I took a chance to buy AFIRM 1X from Dermstore to get rid of the red marks left on my skin from scratching the bumps. And not only did it lighten those but it firmed up the skin on my forehead and shrank the big pores around my nose and eventually I stopped breaking out. Then I stopped using it and after a while the skin went back to the way it was before I used it. So now I continue to use it and I'm now using 3X. You don't have to use a lot so a little goes a long way. It comes in a metallic tube so you can use it all. I never had such good results with any drugstore brands. I use this at bedtime as it says on the tube. I also use a 3% salicylic acid solution that I get from makeup artist choice a few times a week. You leave it on for seven minutes and rinse it off. That keeps me from breaking out. I am 46 I get many compliments on my skin.

No visible results
After applying it for 2 weeks,my eye area looks the same.
It does not do anything for the lines at all.
