I am using the CP from skin bio (not nice smell) along with some other stuff they do. I have not noticed a huge difference yet, but it is supposed to be a long term thing from what I have seen of progress pictures.
Guapagirl is also using CP at moment. |

yeah...I also got a sample of the super cop 2x cream which is supposed to be their most concentrated CP. I've had no irritation on lower half of face so I tried it on upper half, including eye area last night with no adverse reactions. I do seem to be getting what they call remodelling around the eye area, but haven't really noticed any huge improvements as yet, but like loopy says, it takes a long time by all accounts. It is possible that now my skin is looking pretty good, any improvement is likely to be small, so it is perhaps a way to maintain my skin now. It may also be possible that because I don't use all the exfoliation and retin-a stuff in the complementary products, that I'm not getting super fast changes. I'm going to try for some of that stuff when I get my next grant cheque in ![Laughing](images/smiles/lol.gif) |

For some, it does take a long time. It made my skin look better pretty fast but the remodeling process can take a long time. I had a deep wrinkle on one side of my face and it has taken about a year for me to see a difference with this. I had pretty much given up. I was going to use cps for a year and then think about injecting fillers. This line is not always visible to me but I have been monitoring it in one of the most unflattering mirrors (it's placement and the natural light coming in at a certain angle) I hated looking in this mirror but now the line is softer and not always visible. I have to move my face around to let the light catch it just right. So I'll keep on with the cps and hope for more results.
I had tried Retin A for about 9 months with no results..maybe that wasn't long enough. I've given the cps a year.
guapagirl, do you use Strivectin? I think I remember you mentioning this? |

I used the Skin Bio copper serum, and noticed a clearer brighter complexion OVERNIGHT. I'm not kidding. It's not fun to use, though -- so I finished what I had and didn't reorder. No nice smell, too drippy, a hassle to handle -- all in all, it didn't rate any points in the Sensuality category. I either want something really decadent and yummy to handle and make me feel rich and spoiled (which I am not), or I want a low maintenance cream I can stroke on and then konk out. The CP serum is in neither of these categories.
If I didn't have other items that seem to encourage my skin, I'd have definitely stuck with it. But... I'm a Leo. Meaning: 1. I like to feel a wee bit pampered. And 2. I am lazy.

Hi queenpedauque! I'm glad that you saw an improvement in deep wrinkles, cause I have two (dimple crinkles) on my cheeks that I hate! I don't mind crows feet or even the tramlines on my forhead (though they are softer now thanks to relaxaline etc), but the lines on my cheeks make me look really gaunt and drawn, so I hope that the CP will eventually get rid of them. You are right about me using SV and I really rate it despite the horrid smell and crap packaging...I'm with you there Sidda! I haven't repurchased because I wanted to give the cps a go, and also I got bored ...those expensive tubes of SV are quite big and as a face cream, it lasts a long time! Shallow of me I know! Olay regenerist actually contains the same amino-peptides as SV, so that may be an option for some

Do you gals know how long it normally takes skinbio to ship products to Canada and the Customs duties we have to pay?
Thanks. |

I'm in Toronto and it took about 3 weeks. |

I had the same results as Sidda. I agree with everyone that the smell isn't the greatest and the packaging is bad, BUT I am going to give it a shot for about a year or so like queenpedauque to see if I get any better results on the smile and tramlines on my face.
guapagirl, you had me with that description of those annoying 11 lines on my forehead. |

For anyone ordering skin biology CP stuff from Canada...
You can order the same stuff from the DianeYvonne web site www.dianayvonne.com for the same price as on the skin bio site and request they label it $10 value/gift and that way you can avoid the duty charges. The shipping is cheaper too and I get it faster! |
