I really searched to find a rating or review of this company and product line but did not find much. I just received my 30 day trial order today. I've never heard of this company; I think it is relatively new and there product line is limited. As always however I am curious to find something that could help my skin from breaking out. Has anyone tried this?
The cleanser was nice. Nice scent-- I 've used fragrance free for so long I enjoyed a little something. It was very gel-y. But, it rinsed clean and my skin felt clean and soft after w/o a toner. The second step a very light lotion/serum that has 2% salicylic acid, was okay. No a fan of the scent but it didn't sting and feel sticky. The lotion I think I put on a little too liberally (as it said to), but also felt nice. I've used such light lotions this felt a little thick, but now my skin feels soft. Don't feel like I need to ad anything else. I'll keep you posted on how it goes. I'm going to hold off my my Decleor essential balm tonight to see how it goes. Any other thoughts on this company or product line are welcome. |

Okay, so I can see some people looking at this post, but nobody seems to know anything they want to share. So... I'm a little skeptical myself and wanted find some more info. The company's website iswww.myiq.com. They are based out of California and seem to be relatively new company. I know it is only been a day but, I am relatively pleased so far(meaning no instantaneous breakouts or rash or over or under moisture). I am hoping to continue to be pleased because at the end of 30 days, if I decide to keep the products, I am going to be charged $90.00!
So, I've worked out the proper amounts of product to use. The cleanser is not too gel-y if you use the proper amount which is not the size of a quarter, but a dime, which I later read on the bottle. Duh. The moisturizer also, a little nicer with a little less. It says to use twice a day (as they all do), but I think after a couple more days I am going to re-instate my previous routine of alternating bha or aha each day (only apply one acid a day is my general rule). K, I'm rambling, but if anyone has any thoughts, I'm happy to hear or share more. |

| K, the website iswww.iQDerma.com, not what I stated above. The above one is for managing your account. Sorry! I still like it. My skin is soft, hydrated, and all the clogged pores are going away. I myself am surprised and very pleased. We'll so how it goes for the duration of the month--skin acts differently at different times of the month. |

I just ordered the "Starter" set for the 30 day trial. I am not trying to stop break-outs but trying to tighten sagging skin and get rid og lines. So, do you still like the product?
Thanks,

| Too bad they don't list the ingredients. I cant bring myself to buy anything w/o reviewing the ingredients first. |

| I do still like it. No averse affects and my skin looks nice. I wish I could find out more or read another review. |

| Havana8, thank you. I don't venture into too many other skincare sights. Too tempting. I feel better now that I know its not some random company. I wish the ingredient list was shorter, but I am happy my skin looks clear and plump. |

Have you completed your 30 day trial yet? Are you going to cancel out? Might I ask how old you are? I was just wondering if you're within my age group. |

Hi ruk1,I just pasted my 30 day mark and I am pleased-I am going to keep it. I am 27 have pretty reactive skin and some hormonal breakouts/persistent breakouts along my jawline. My general problem is that my skin is not that oily so most acne programs dry it out quickly, then I end up with dry skin on top and clogged pores underneath. What I liked about the iQ Derma is that within two days my skin looked brighter and the congested areas (not the hormonal breakout areas) like blackheads and non inflamed bumps cleaned out super quickly after I started using it (meaning when I did extractions they came right out with hardly any manipulation) and they haven't come back. I did the twice a day thing at first, but now I am just using the whole kit at night (I try not too over it do it with too many acids- one time a day is really my rule, b/c I want my skin to be able to function somewhat on its own and not get dried out). I think I've got a good program down at this point. I was playing around with some new mineral and liquid makeups this past month, one of which I am sure broke me out, but now that I've ruled that back out, I haven't had any new breakouts (I just discovered Laura Mercier's silk cream foundation- it is to die for-and I posted my thoughts on that too under that topic).
And so you know, I was just using Paula's Choice products including her bha 2% lotion (which is similar the second step of the Clear remedy program), but the iQ stuff seems more elegant to me.
The DermStore website has some reviews and lists the ingredients if you want to check it out.
Sorry I wrote a book, but I hope this helps. |
