I am currently using the Lifeline product, I'm on my second order. I think my skin is looking too dry on this line, so I have ordered the RL trio which I'll try when I'm finished my current bottle of LL. (I'm not adding moisturiser because I want to use this as advertised and see if the product on it's own is enough) |
Yes, the Lifeline was very drying on my skin, as well. I could not get used to that feel and it also isn't good for eczema.
Do you use the PMD or any other devices?
I also just ordered the Reluma trio and will be giving it a try (due to Lori's review on the smoker lines improving!). |
To be fair since I am seeing those lip lines fade as well as lori I will give up everything (LED and PMD) for as long as your bottles last, I have 2 sets of the trio so plenty to work with Riley!
The only other things I will continue are RA, LAA serum and SS. Not even going to use either sonic cleanser for at least a month to six weeks and will also hold off on my roll fair enough.
I think you might be surprised how this calms your skin, so what will you use while trialing the products?
TIA  |
I haven't used the sonic cleanser for weeks now, I wondered if it wasn't overkill on exfolliation, with the pmd, the last thing I want to do is over exfolliate. While I do love that machine for cleaning, I just set it aside weeks ago. |
I have been letting mine sit unused as well just wanted to give full disclosure of what I will and will not use, so with the short rolls Riley should have a leg up during her trial as I am not going to use any gadgets, The LAA serum and RA are the only exfoliation I will be getting! |

DM, I hope you are right on the skin calming!
Ok, my plan is to do exactly what I did before starting Lifeline and AnteAge. For the next 2 weeks, I will only be using a cleanser, a "non-active" moisturizer (Shikai dry skin lotion) and sunscreen. After th3 2 weeks, I will only use the Reluma products. I was good about using just the AnteAGE for 1 month and I liked the redness reduction, but that is all I noticed (of course then I started messing around adding other products in, and I could never use the Lifeline long enough to give it a good try - way too drying/irritatin on my skin). |

I understand and I am going to just stick with RA and LAA as you know i don't peel from those but that is all aside from the ReLuma.
You did get the trio it has a great and gentle cleanser in it.
I am crossing fingers for you that you see both nice calm skin and a reduction in lip lines!  |

| Riley just so you know, lip lines for me softened fast, but did not really (for my satisfaction) reduce enough for a yahoo until literally a few days ago, and I am 8 weeks in! Loops (can we shoot her) saw this a lot faster! While softening is great, better than anything else I've used, I want GONE! |

Honestly, I will be just fine with softening of the lip lines. They are hard to get rid of! I really want to get the Frownies just to see if that would help but I won't until after 1 month of Reluma. I think all of you who saw results, saw them in less than 1 months time, right? |

Yes, after 1 month, I also will add things back in. I have to be fair and that is what I did with AnteAGE. When I added Environ in, the redness never went away again, but I really believe in A and C and I do want to use Environ (just will be dropping down to the Debut or Mild!). |

Softening yes within a month, fading took longer (depth reduction), a lot longer for me, I can still see them, but I promise you, they are a lot less now, and that was just in last few days, could also have been happening all along, but I am being super cautious and anal on these, I really want them gone. |

I would say it is a fair trial on both of us to see if we get results with just the ReLuma, I am only sticking to the RA and LAA as I do plan on rolling, but will put that off for a while, 4-6 weeks.
I think (and hope) you will see calming. |

Tiny, how long had you used the PMD before you started the RL? |

I think about a month, but realistically prob a bit longer, I did purchase this back in late January or early Feb and used off and on, not consistently until late March. So not sure really how to answer. I did not get "better" results until I added RL in.
If I thought for one second it was soley PMD, I'd save alot of money. |

Frodo I am sorry it hasn't worked for you. I guess that is why there are so many reviews on EDS of various products, some that work and some that don't. I wish it had though.
Riley I am truly impressed with my lip lines. I am praying you get the same result as me not Frodo. I wonder if mine looked better faster because they were worse than DM and Tiny's, so any improvement looked like a big improvement. Does that make sense to anyone but me?
I am going to carry on using PMD for now but once I have used up this set of reluma, I will stop with PMD for the next round. At least that way I can tell if it is one or the other. I do still think it is the combination. ie; better penetration on exfolliated skin. |

Frodo, Im sorry too you didnt see any change its not fair 
Actually I think either exfoliation or rolling may well be a factor. I dont use the PMD but use lacsal sometimes and NCNs mirco fibre cloth. I have kept to the routine Iwas doing before, so the only new thing is the reluma .
I do think the rolling (for me)amps everything up.
Oh the other thing I have No milia now
And I gave up picking, poking, and even putting CPs on them, and these are milia I have had since I was little,and I have always hated them, but only once been successful getting rid of it.A la Dr Pickart advice it worked but took time and effort.
These have gone with no effort I am well chuffed

Well I am holding you responsible for my lack of willpower. I have been sitting on my hands, but your review threw me over the edge! I have very bad lip lines, meaning they are deep and I will take any improvement I can get with them! |

I did not realize you were not using the PMD, Sylvia. Do you do the penetration rolls or the longer needle rolls? |

If the PMD suction does help collagen generation, you will see those benefits around 4-6 months. And from a combo standpoint, RL could help enhance those results.
But for those that have already started using PMD, you might as well keep going since you will not be able to test just RL once you started that collagen moving with earlier PMD treatments. (The same applies to rolling) Collagen development may already be underway, and you can't attribute any results solely to RL. So I would keep on with the combo since it is working so well! |

Totally agree. Once you move into months two and three of product use, that is actually when you should start seeing the results from month one because that is when the new collagen will kick in. |

I agree, any combo that is working, stick with it, thats the whole point! If some wise soul adds a third and it kicks it better, let us know |

I do think its what has made the difference for me , things are getting to where they should be. And it gives the skin a proper chance,.
The only other thing I can think of to add in there is all my supplements, (taking for about 2 months consistently now)
After skim reading that book Kassy talked about
(your skin younger) I saw that they realy impact how your skin, is also my diet isnt that good , and I dont get enuff sleep.
What Im trying to say (badly) is its probably a combo for me, but even saying that it doesnt at all explain the "MIlia dissapearence) |
