Review: Perricone MD Cold Plasma Anti-Aging Formula

July 6, 2010 By


Cold Plasma is a custom blend of proprietary antiaging actives that represents Dr. Perricone’s most comprehensive and efficacious scientific research to date.

This powerful skincare essential prevents and corrects the ten most visible signs of aging relating to: firmness, elasticity, clarity, radiance, smoothness, texture, redness, blotchiness, wrinkles, and dryness.

Cold Plasma, a breakthrough, revolutionary treatment from Dr. Perricone formulated to address the 10 most visible signs of aging and impart gorgeous, supple, healthy looking skin. Layer it under your favorite treatment product for ultimate amplified results!

I absolutely love Dr. Perricone’s Cold Plasma. I having been using a few of his products for the last 6 months and I truly love this one the best. This lightweight gel/creme formula is very light and goes on smoothly and is totally non-greasy. I know others complain about the smell of some of his products and esp. this one, but I don’t mind it at all. A clean smell.

I use Dr Perricone's Gentle Cleanser first and then smooth on Cold Plasma. The box says to use liberally, it is definitely too expensive for me to use liberally! I use only enough to spread all over my face and neck, using the least amount possible to cover the area. Using it sparingly has given me great results! I love the way my skin looks after I apply it, fresh, dewy, pliant, and supple. It gives me a radiance that really makes my skin look alive… and that is impressive when you are 62 years old and drying up! I’m now going to start using the Cold Plasma for Eyes and I can’t wait to see how well it works. How exciting!!

Price: $150

Perricone Cold Plasma Reviews & GIVEAWAY

March 15, 2010 By

Congratulations to Judy G for winning Cold Plasma!

Thank to everyone who entered this fabulous giveaway and a HUGE thanks to Perricone for giving our reader the opportunity to win one of your awesome products!


We’ve teamed up with Perricone again to offer one lucky reader a jar of the latest anti-aging product, Cold Plasma!!! I’m so excited we could give you another chance to win this incredible product because it’s one of my favorites!

cold plasma jar

Cold Plasma is a universal skin care product; suited for anyone, no matter how old your skin is, what your skin type is, or whether you’re male or female.

Cold Plasma works through a patented ionic (i.e. charged particles) suspension carrier system which allows for your skin to extract from Cold Plasma’s formula according to your individual, unique needs. This personalized system, called biochemical individuality, is a self-selection process charged by phospholipids, major cell membrane components. Phospholipids are fat derivatives which help lock in moisture, because phosopholipid bilayers have hydrophilic (attracted to water) heads facing outward and hydrophobic (mix poorly with water) tails facing inward toward each other. The phospholipids in this formula help direct needed nutrients where they can be effectively used through the cell membrane. This means, if any of the ingredients aren’t needed, they just won’t be utilized.

cold plasmaCold Plasma works through this system to deliver optimal nutrition to skin cells to help skin achieve a healthy, glowing, youthful appearance.

It does so by helping combat the 10 signs of aging, which include:

    1. Firmness
    2. Elasticity
    3. Clarity
    4. Radiance
    5. Smoothness
    6. Texture
    7. Redness
    8. Blotchiness
    9. Fine lines and wrinkles
    10. Dryness

Beyond the unique delivery system, the key sciences behind this product include:

  • Advanced neuropeptide technology to give anti-inflammatory effects, which assist in slowing the 10 aforementioned signs of aging.
  • DMAE to help stimulate nerve function, thus causing muscles under skin to tighten, providing a lifted and firm appearance to sagging skin.
  • L-tyrosine, an amino acid, brightens skin to help radiate a youthful glow.
  • DHA, an essential amino acid, to support the preservation and hydration of skin.

iS Clinical Skin Care – Youth Eye Complex

January 7, 2010 By

Yesterday I received iS Clinical’s newest product, Youth Eye Complex, to test and review.

It comes in a classy looking silver pump container much like the Youth Complex that I use daily.

I tried it this morning, for the first time, after washing my face. It smoothed into my skin like velvet and immediately left the delicate skin around my eyes feeling cool and refreshed. I didn’t notice and immediate improvement on dark circles, but that is to be expected. Don’t be fooled by product that claim immediate improvement of dark circles unless it’s a concealer. Youth Eye Complex works beneath the skin by inhibiting melanin synthesis and strengthening the delicate eye around the eyes. This takes time and a product like this should be used daily to achieve long term results.

After one use, my first impression is great. I like the immediate results, the consistency, the extremely light and unnoticeable fragrance, and the ease of use with the nifty container. I hate jars of anything… I think everything should be made with a pump. It’s just to much easier to apply, especially if you have long nails. Then digging something out of a jar turns into a project.

Overall, I am anxious to use this one on a regular basis along with the rest of my iS Clinical skin care regime.

iS Clinical Skincare Regime to Fight “Winter Skin”

December 16, 2009 By

iSClinical_giveaway

“Winterize Your Skin” with this fabulous skincare regime from iS Clinical. Hydra-Cool Serum, Moisturizing Complex and SPF25 Treatment Sunscreen will be your three new best friends during the cold, dry winters months.

Hydra-Cool Serum – $85

    Hydra-Cool Serum is designed for all skin types, all ages and is gentle enough for even the most sensitive skin. It is formulated to rejuvenate, hydrate and soothe skin. This refreshing serum combines superior antioxidants with essential botanicals and bionutrients. Excellent for relieving the sting of a sunburn, the burn of freshly shaved skin and it is anti-acneic as well.

Moisturizing Complex – $78

    Moisturizing Complex is designed for use in the morning and evening by people of all ages and skin types. This extremely versatile formula also improves the efficacy or other treatment products while providing the skin with essential hydration. This rich, yet easily absorbed, botanical complex creates an antioxidant rich barrier that seals in moisture and insulates skin from harmful external oxidative damage.

SPF 25 Treatment Sunscreen – $40

    This revolutionary lightweight cream combines powerful antioxidants and sunscreen actives without destroying the efficacy of the delicate botanicals. Clinically proven to reduce the UV-induced erythema by more than 53% within 24 hours (compared to untreated skin.) This remarkable product actually treats sunburns as well as protects against it. SPF 25 Treatment Sunscreen also diminishes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and soothes inflammation.

I haven’t had the chance to personally try the Moisturizing Complex or the Hydra-Cool Serum, but I am a huge fan of iS Clinical as their products have without-a-doubt, changed my life.

I suffered with acne for years and years. After 1 week of using the Cleansing Complex and Active Serum 2x a day and the Youth Complex 1x a day. I’ve been using iS Clinical products since July and my skin hasn’t looked this good since I was 12 years old. I can actually go out in public without caking on the makeup and powders and concealers to hide my previously abysmal looking complexion. I can wake up in the morning without finding 3-10 pimples that need to be annihilated. My skin is smoother, healthier and so much easier to manage.

Being such a huge fan of iS Clinical, I was delighted to team up with them for the 12 Days of Christmas Giveaway Extravaganza to offer one lucky reader of The Fashionable Housewife a chance to win 3 of their best selling products for this time of year!

    One lucky reader will receive their “Winterize Your Skin” skincare regime consisting of Hydra-Cool Serum, Moisturizing Complex and SPF25 Treatment Sunscreen. Click here to enter!

Last chance to enter is Dec 20th at 11:59pm EST.
