Dr Lewinns Reversaderm Complete System Review

Clarify This cleanser is white in colour and non foaming with the fragrance of a faint sweet berry When I first started using this twice a day it left me feeling red faced and with a light windburn feeling I started off with about 30 seconds till I could handle a bit more of the tingly feeling I felt the tingle and gradually let the time factor build up using this I also made sure my skin was damp before I used this Rinse well I could feel lots of tingling going on if I didn't Resurface The peel is a lightly pearlised in colour with a bitter fragrance of witch hazel After cleansing I do two pumps that's enough I rub it lightly all over my neck and face it's nice and slippery so very easy to apply I used it every second day I was like oh wow that's a hot minty feeling that settled quickly This dries to a light sticky dry not tight or peeling a good rinse and my skin feels refreshed soft and red that does go away Wait for a while after cleansing to apply Rinse really well Have patience with this if it tingles a lot because it does settle Revive This is a nice heavy plastic bottle with a glass dropper that you suck this white serum up Fragrance is soft and powdery and a little bitter I shake the bottle each time before use and don't leave this serum sucked up the glass dropper as it goes a thickish yellow and blocks up I found this silky and smooth A week down the track and this is a little gem I'm sure helped with my skin tone Restore A heavy white plastic pot Under a clear plastic top is a rather large push down top with a hole to pump out a generous amount of a thick not waxy cream with a very light fragrance of Shea butter The first week I needed two pumps twice a day for my face and neck and I still felt like I needed more moisture my This didn't tingle when I used this but wasn't soothing and not heavy enough for dry skin Then after a break and retrying one pump was more than enough Second week I could feel a balancing with my skin Gently push the top down to get the cream If you have dry skin it's not quite enough Detox A simple soft tube easy to squeeze A purple lotion that goes blue pretty much on contact with air A very soft fragrance sweet and nutty I apply this thinly once a week This is silky soft and very nice to use as I spreads on so easily and stays feeling moist on my skin I leave this on for about 20 minutes the first 5 I've found to be a little tingly but it settles Within a couple of minutes it's just like I have a shine on my face no colour left in the mask This is easy to rinse off and I'm left with just nice and soft supple refreshed skin Apply thinly to a dry face Give this product time to work And rinse well

I think like everyone on this trial I was so excited to be one of the lucky to try this out!

I waited for my parcel to arrive.... would my face peel off? Would I wake up with my 18 year old self's skin but with my wisdom (obviously)? I couldn't wait to find out.

And the courier finally delivered my goods they arrived in stylish white sleek packaging with very detailed instructions. With a cup of tea (*cough* adult apple juice *cough*) I read the detailed instructions. Now I am a keep it simple kind of girl so I was worried I would be overly confused by this all - so in case my goldfish brain took over I placed the instructions in the bathroom for the first few days but by week two I had it figured out.

I love pumps, no mess and it is so easy to get the product out - the 'Antioxidant Regenerative Cream' is insanely good. Not only is the pump so fancy I squealed when using it. It is also my favourite of the bunch. Honestly I am sure it is the sole reason I no longer get those super dry almost scale patches on my face (yes I liked to think that made me one step closer to a mermaid but they felt horrible!). Every thing from the smell, feel and pump of this product has wowed me.

I also enjoyed the peel but I reduced the amount I was using and didn't put it near my mouth/ lips area because I am just a little more prone to issues there and then it was perfect! I love that you can change it up to suit your skin and it works perfectly.

If I had to choose a product I was not a fan of it would be the 'Tri-Collagen Accelerating Serum' and the only fault I can give it is that it should be in a pump. It is a pain to get out. But the product is so good I will look past the eye dropper because honestly it leaves my skin feeling like I just had an amazing facial. Life changing.

So the end results...... drum roll please...... Did my face peel off? No. But you really should wear sunscreen while using this. I know that might seem silly but your burn time is halved if not more than that. Your skin is sensitive so be nice to it or you really will burn. That goes for your neck too. I learnt that the hard way in week 5.

Did my skin look like I was 18 while keeping all my wisdom? Well.... no. I still look the same I am afraid but does it feel as soft as my 18 year old skin did - YOU BET IT DOES!!!!! Without all the pimples which is obviously amazing. I was left with super moisturised skin. The best pay off was at a wedding on friday just gone and one of the girls asked me what my secret was.... with glee I told her my doctor in a bottle! She thought I meant dr who...... after a quick chat she learnt the magic that is this complete kit.

It is a huge investment I get that but man o man, I can say with all honesty this product has changed my face routine forever. You need to try this for yourself. It is worth every penny.

Reversaderm five step skin care range, this is meant to help with acne scars, enlarged pores, lines and wrinkles, pigmentation, sun damage and dull uneven skin tone. This range comes in a sleek white and silver bottles with black and blue writing. Step 1:Glycolic Clarifying Cleanser: this comes in a 100ml bottle with a pump dispenser, I used 2-3 pumps every time, I did not enjoy the scent of this at all it had a very alcohol smell to it, the one thing in a cleanser for me is to be able to use it over my eyes which was unfortunate I couldn’t with this one so had to remove my makeup with one of my other cleaners, I found this cleanser to however give my face a really good cleanse and prep my skin for the next steps, it also did not have any dryness or tightness just a really soft milky texture that felt nice on my skin. This product I used twice a day. Step 2: Micro-Cellular Age Correcting Peel: this comes in a 50ml bottle and also has a pump dispenser, this product was a clear liquid that had a pleasant scent, I used three pumps of this product for 30 minutes every second day. I found the peel to go on to my skin really easily and it never felt tight while on like some peels can, I did find towards the end of the second week it did make my skin sting a little while on however this did not last for long. Step 3: Tri-Collagen Accelerating Serum: the serum comes in a 30ml bottle and had a dropper to dispense the product, I found I needed a full drop from the dispenser. The serum is full of key benefits including vitamin C and French Saffron, my skin just drunk this product up and took no time to dry. I found the dropper to be really hit and miss with dispensing product sometimes it would dispense the amount of product needed other times you would need to re drop the dropper a couple times, and the product over time started to sit around the bottom of the screw lid which is a real shame as it is quite an expensive product ($89.99) to be getting wasted by the lid. Step 4: Antioxidant Regenerative Cream. This product comes in a 50ml, and retails for $94.99 and is the most expensive product in this range. The way that this product is dispensed would have to be one of the coolest ways I have seen from a cream, it has a button that you push down and it dispensers the product up through a hole in the middle, this took me a little while to figure out as if you push too hard the product went everywhere. The cream was a thick texture that went on to the skin really easily and sunk in without feeling heavy. It has a nice soft scent to it. I found putting make up on over this really easily and set really nicely.

Inside the courier box was a plain black paper bag with string handles. Inside this bag were 5 products all pearly white with silver bandedlids and silver printing on each container and a booklet explaining each product. This was a very nice impact and a really classy look. Products made in Australia. The Booklet advised what each product does and template showing when to use to use each product. The Cleanser is in a tall cylinder shaped pump container .The cleanser is a white lotion which you massage in and leave for 2 minutes before rinsing off. Initially this was a bit tingly on my skin . It has a very nice fruity ,paw paw type scent. The Serum is in a dumpy container with a dropper in the lid . The white Serum had a low scent and disappeared immediately into my skin. The dropper I found a bit useless. The Moisturiser is in a round stubby container. The lid looks too heavy for the container. Inside is a creamy coloured mousse style . This cream has a buttery scent, fruity, heavier than the cleanser. The top has a stopper in the top and the lid is a pump which made the product easy to use. These three products are the daily essentials. Time for the first peel - this was a total first for me. The product is in a canister style pump cylinder similar to the cleanser but shorter. The lotion was a white creamy solution and I applied as advised with a massage to my skin avoiding the eye area . My skin immediately felt sharp prickles but again this had been forewarned. The scent is strong and minty. After ten minutes the tingling abated and the product had a really cold effect on my skin. Finally the mask at the end of the week . This product is in a tube -white of course and a silver lid. By Day 4 the cleanser is less tingly ,the serum just disappears into the skin ,the moisturiser feels smooth and easy to use and the peel smells really minty and chills, so skin feels cold and crisp. After moisturising when peel has been used the skin feels really warm. Finally mask time. Big surprise the product inside the tube is a light mauve colour with a light fruity scent. This is easy to apply and does not dry. After 20 minutes you rinse off and even after first use my skin felt really fresh. A pimple which shows day 11 disappeared by day thirteen and I also noticed an on going dry patch which I have had forever on my cheek reducing in density. I am at the two week break and my old products feel thick and heavy and my skin is losing the lovely glow - Starting the second cycle my skin was more sensitive initially to the cleanser and peel. The cleanser is the best I have used. The serum is annoying as I find the dropper useless . The peel makes my skin really clear and fresh. The moisturiser is easy to use and non greasy. Not sure if my wrinkles have reduced but I feel my skin is so much clearer, softer and brighter and dryness reduced considerably and my pores so much finer.

After accepting this trial I had a case of butterflies - my current skincare works for me, what if i was about to mess up my face? Words like 'acid' and 'peel' are kinda scary when you're talking about your face. But, accept it I had, and so I was going to do it.

I started this on the first of December which made it way easier to track the schedule - i think in future i'd try and start on the first of the month to make sure that I was keeping track of which days to do the peels and masks, because the second session, with it beginning after Xmas and happening while I was on break, confused me.

This range comes packaged as a range, in a variety of white bottles, tubes and pottles with metallic blue and black writing. It looks classy, slightly medicinal, and expensive.

The GLYCOLIC CLARIFYING CLEANSER is actually far more of a mild product than I was anticipating. It comes in a sizeable bottle equipped with a pump action dispenser This is the only dispenser that got messy, but this could be due to the fact that you use this one twice a day. The cleanser lotion is white, medium thickness and has a faint scent - nothing I can put my finger on, it just smells clean and fresh. You massage this onto damp skin for 30 seconds, leave for a couple of minutes and rinse off. This doesn't feel like it's stripping anything out of skin and it certainly doesn't feel like there is acid in it, which I was worried about. It does tingle (note: not hurt, but it's a sharp tingle) when you use it the day after a peel/mask), which can be disconcerting, but the tingle is only momentary. This also didn't remove my makeup - so I used a cleansing oil first.

The TRI-COLLAGEN ACCELERATING SERUM is the most expensive feeling product in the range. It's extreme luxury, from the dispenser being a wee dropper (implies that you should only use a little) to the luxurious feeling of this on skin. This is probably my favourite in the range - it literally feels like its rejuvenating my skin from the moment i put it on my face. It's hydrating without being at all greasy (the word 'serum' usually makes me feel oily without even touching the product!) and super lush and divine on skin. It's a thick-ish white cream with a lotion-type scent - really fresh and luxurious.

The ANTI-OXIDANT REGENERATIVE CREAM comes in some of the coolest packaging I've seen yet. It's a pottle, but with a pump lid that you simply push down on to have product pop up. It DOES dispense more than I feel necessary so I try and only 'pump' it very lightly. This is a very thick, off-white cream with a typical face cream scent. Its spreads well and hydrates beautifully, with no residue and fast absorption. When combined with the serum it genuinely feels like you're gifting your skin with a wee mini facial a couple of times a day.

I was beyond ecstatic when I was invited to trial this. My once normal skin was a nightmare of hormonal acne mixed with dry patches and oily cheeks, it was in the worst condition it had ever been and to be selected for this trial gave me hope that my skin could be what it once was (if not better).

-Glycolic clarifying cleanser. This was used twice a day, morning and night. The pump bottle dispenses a small amount of cleanser which is great for not wasting any product. I wash my face and apply 4 pumps of this to my face and neck massaging it in counting to 30 before leaving it on for 2 minutes. Washing this off feels refreshing.

- Tri collagen accelerating serum. I use this after I cleanse my face, unless its the day to use the peel then this will go after the face peel. I use the tip of the glass to apply dots to my face, then using circular motions to help it work its way into my skin. Each time I use this I get satisfaction at watching the serum absorb into my fine lines, my skin absorbs this almost instantly and brightens my under eyes.

- Antioxidant regenerative cream. The cream is always the last step of the routine. The container it comes in brings out my inner Dr pimple popper, you push down the sides and the cream comes out the middle. It resembles melted butter and it literally melts into my face, 2 pumps is enough for my face and neck. My skin looks visibly hydrated and feels so smooth.

- Micro-cellular age correcting peel. This I found the most frightening only because I've heard experiences on what peels can do but I was scaring myself for no reason! The peel is used on Day 2, 4, 8, 10, 12 and then you repeat once you've done your 2 week break. You apply this once you've cleansed your skin and apply a small amount with your fingertips. The thin clear liquid can be hard to see and for the first few times I used a little too much. 2 pumps is enough for my face and neck. It has an instant cooling effect as soon as it touches my skin. The first time I applied this I started to panic as my skin felt like it was burning but after 10 minutes the sensation just simmered down. I leave this on for 30 minutes before washing this off.On the days I do the peel I try to avoid the sun.

- Enzymatic detoxifying mask. This is used once a week and its a real treat! It smells amazing and it resembles pastel purple toner. After every 6th day you cleanse your skin and then apply this. You apply a layer to your face and neck and wait up to 20 minutes for it to soak in. It leaves my skin looking plump and full of life.

Overall- My skin has been restored,the overall skin is gleaming and refreshed, the fine lines around my mouth where I used to smoke have reduced a lot, the small pores I had on the tops of my cheeks have disappeared and most of my hormonal acne has gone. Some scaring has lightened and my skin is nearly back to normal to combination skin. I am super happy with the outcome of my skin.

I was beyond excited to learn I was to be part of this trial. I visit a salon 4 times a year so am familiar with what to expect in terms of results and was going to be impressed if this delivered something similar. The system consists of 5 products to use with clear instructions when to use each product. The packaging is clean and classic, white, grey and silver reminiscent of salon quality products. As with any peel system, there are warnings for the tingling sensation and to stop if it was uncomfortable. The cleanser is a white lotion and has a pleasant smell. I used about 2 ½ pumps every morning and night, left it on for the recommended 2 minutes while I brushed my teeth and then washed off. I did feel a tingle when I used this, nothing awful but a definitely tingle. The serum is a gorgeous pearlescent lotion – you only need a small amount (the size of a pea) and it spreads easily. I’m not a fan of the dropper as I found it difficult to get the serum out when it was getting low. While it felt nice to apply I’m not sure if I noticed any extra benefit from using it, but I’m sure it’s helping somehow. The moisturiser is a creamy yellow, and as with the serum you only need a small amount. 1 press of the dispenser was enough to cover my entire face and neck. Neither the serum nor the moisturiser were overly scented but I prefer my skincare like that. The moisturiser absorbs beautifully and made my skin feel so nice and silky without feeling clogged. The dispenser is genius – you press either side of it and the perfect amount comes out. It means no germs or anything can get into the container. The peel is a clear, menthol scented liquid gel – it’s not a horrible deep heat scent, but a refreshing menthol that feels quite cool when you first apply. I used 2 pumps of the peel and spread across my face using my fingertips. While I did find it a bit of a hassle leaving it on for 20-30 minutes to begin with, I quickly got used to it and fit my routine around it. With the peel I definitely noticed the tingle; during the 5th week I got a bit of irritation on my neck - I think it was a combination of sitting in the crease of my neck with this hot weather so I discontinued using it on my neck and applied to just below my jawline. The mask is a beautiful lavender deep detoxifying and exfoliating mask with gorgeous ingredients such as macadamia oil and French saffron. It does warn you may feel a slight tingle as it exfoliates during the 15-20 minutes, however I didn’t ever get that sensation. I absolutely loved using the mask, again you only need a small amount, and my skin practically glowed after each use. So the results: I have definitely noticed an improvement in my skin. My skin was nowhere near as dull, I still have fine lines but nothing short of a miracle (or Botox) will get rid of those! For the price of the system I would definitely recommend it, in particular the cleanser, peel and mask.

Step 1: Clarify Glycolic Clarifying Cleanser This product was used every day, twice a day. Morning and night minus the off weeks. The cleanser is white in colour, floral scented and lightweight. The cleasner isn't thick or runny, a really thin consistencey. I used 2 pumps worth of product to wash my face with, massaging it into my face for 2 minutes but leaving it on my face for a good 6-7 minutes before rinsing it off and towel drying my face. I was super surprised that the cleanser didnt lather, so no bubbles. For the first two weeks I noticed a slight tingle senastion to the skin on my face but on week 5 and 6 I didn't get that sensation at all. My skin was left feeling incredibly clean and soft after use.

Step 2: Resurface Micro-Cellular Age correcting Peel This product was used every 2nd night minus the off weeks. The peel cream is a clear liquid, a little runny. The scent to me is similar to the cleanser but with more of a 'cleanser' smell to it. I used 3 pumps worth of product which was enough to cover my face, just a light film across my face. I generally left it on for 30 minutes, rinsing it off with luke warm water. Let's talk about that stinging sensation lol. It was definetly strong but only for a minute - maybe less before it subsided. I did notice if i had worn makeup that day the sting was a little more intense than when not wearing makeup.

Step 3: Revive Tri-Collagen Accelerating Serum This product was used every day twice a day minus the off weeks. The peel is a beautiful pearlescent white colour, much the same consistency as the cleanser and smells the same as well. I used 2 droplet pumps of the serum for my face, I did find it took a bit to absorb into my skin, but after it was well massaged in my skin felt so soft! I noticed when I was out in the sun for the day using this on my skin, it did sting a little but it didnt happen often.

Step 4: Restore Antioxidant Regenerate Cream This product was used every day, twice a day minus the off weeks. The cream smells amazing! Just like roses and it's just like a body butter. One pump is enough product to use on your face. The packaging is very unique. Round with a clear lid, pop the lid off and push down on the pad for the product to come up through the hole in the pad. It left my skin feeling silky smooth and hydrated.

I was excited to be offered an opportunity on this trial team. This range claims to resurface and renourish ageing or damaged skin. This is my first time using this type of skincare.

STEP 1- CLARIFY -Glycolic Clarifying Cleanser

This bottle came in a pump bottle. Each pump disperses enough for one application making it last a very long time. The consistency is smooth white with a fresh musky floral scent. I put this on for ten minutes each time morning and night for the duration of two weeks on. At first I feel a tingling sensation . It's not painful and I notice it goes away by the second week of use. This process feels like a cleaning cleansing effect. My skin is still feels hydrated, hasn't tightened like others I've tried.

STEP 2 - RESSURFACE- Micro Cellular Age Correcting Peel

This bottle is also in a pump plastic bottle. The consistency of this is like a clear gel. It smells like a strong alcohol with floral mixed in. Very Weird smell almost like a bad perfume. When I first put it on I felt a burning sensation. This went away after a couple of minutes. I notice as I progress with this peel on every second night it's like I can't feel any burning or tingling. My skin appeared red on the first week but notice that it's fully restored by the second to third week.

STEP 3 - REVIVE- Tri Collagen Accelerating Serum

This bottle was the show stopper amongst the other skincare packaging. It has this pearlescent white glass. The most beautiful serum bottle I've ever owned. The dropper is good quality too . The texture of this serum feels soft and more refined. It has a soft musk scent that lingers after use. It works its magic after each cleanse and peel. My skin feels glowy as time goes on .

STEP 4 - RESTORE- Antioxidant Regenerative Cream

This came in a large sized pot. I had to ask my partner how to work this one. He showed me that I push down on the plastic and it pushes out enough cream for each use. This way I guess the cream isnt exposed . The texture of it is smooth creamy non greasy softly fragranced.This part feels like I'm giving my skin food to nourish and heal. I would have liked some SPF Added to the formula of it.

STEP 5 - DETOX- Enzymatic Detoxifying Mask

This one came in a long thin tube. Similar branding to the other bottles. The colour of it is a light purple shade quite light creamy consistency. I put this on once a week. I feel a slight tingle with this but it goes away with time.

When I first started this skincare system my skin was red and dry in an awful condition. During the course of six weeks I saw my skin transform from being red and dry to being smooth , hydrated glowy skin. There was a small reduction with my fine lines . This is the best skincare system I've ever tried. It's ideal for resurfacing and restoring skin. Definately worth its price. I had my doubts but I was wrong. It worked well for me.

As the 'mother of the bride' later this year I was really excited to be selected for this trial! ~Glycolic Claryifying Cleanser~ The smell of this cleanser is devine! I only needed one pump which was enough for my face and neck. It tingled very briefly when I first used it (as noted on the bottle that it may do) but not again after that. It didn't foam up and didn't leave me with that 'grabbing' feeling some cleansers do. It washed off nice and easily. After using it for the full trial period, it still feels at least half full. Overall, I loved how my skin felt after using this cleanser and was not screaming out to quickly put moisturizer on! And whats more, my skin was really clean. ~Tri-Collagen Accelerating Serum~ I was surprised at the size of this bottle. It is the smallest of all the products at just 30ml. I felt the eye dropper wasn't really long enough to be able to reach all of the serum. I have used at least 2/3 of the bottle. It has a very faint scent which I didn't like. It isn't a liquid and not a cream so somewhere in between. I only needed a small amount to cover both my face and neck. It dried quite quickly once applied. ~Antioxidant Regenerative Cream~ The pump on this container ensured there would be no contamination of the product at any time. When I first used it, I had to pump it a few times before any came out and when it did, it was with a spurt. It took a few days to work out how much to push the pump down so as to avoid getting too much out. After the first few days it wouldn't pump so I took the lid off, tapped it on the bench and it came right. I've probably used 3/4 of the cream. I loved this moisturizer! It spread easily on my skin, didn't leave a greasy feeling and my skin loved it! Like the serum, it has a faint scent but much nicer which disappears once applied. ~Micro-Cellular Age Correcting Peel~ I was a bit nervous about using this as I haven't really used one before. I could just smell the witch hazel but it doesn't linger. The clear liquid spreads very easily and then dries on the skin to be left for 20-30 minutes. I didn't expect to have to wash it off - I thought I would have to 'peel' it off so washing it is much easier! I didn't feel any tingling at any time. ~Enzymatic Detoxifying Mask~ This mask is true to it's word. It's gentle and light-weight. I loved the smell of this product too (similar to the cleanser) and like the peel was easy to wash off after the required time to be left on the skin. Again, I didn't feel any tingling. It's not sticky and dried on my skin. ~~CONCLUSION~~ Love, love, love! My skin feels fantastic and definitely looks clearer. My makeup goes on so much better and looks fresher for longer. The scarring on my forehead has definitely improved as have the fine lines around my lips. The dry patch I had on my cheek has gone. My family can see the difference. I will definitely continue to use it. I have never had results like this before!
