I am very surprised by the previous low review score - I've fallen in love with Kinerase Extreme Lift Face! I'm 37 years old with some fine lines, recently starting to notice a little sag in my jaw line. I came across 4-5 samples of this product from a friend that had been just sitting in my cabinet for some time (I don't really stray from my normal face routine). I tried one on a whim not even knowing what it was supposed to do (the small samples don't have much of a description. I used a sample a night (even though the directions read morning and night) just to see if it works (I'm a huge fan of the Kinerase daily cleanser). After the second night I noticed a huge difference in the look and feel of my skin - it's pretty amazing! It makes your skin very smooth and taut - I can feel a difference in my jaw line. I'm thinking that the other users who rate one star may be expecting some sort of miracle - I think it makes my skin look younger, but they may be expecting to look 37 at 53! If you're realistic in your expectations (that you aren't going to suddenly look like you've had an $8K face lift) this product is definitely worth the price.

I have been using this product for about 4 months now and absolutely love it. I am in my late 30's and have very fair colored, oily skin which is prone to acne. This actually had a nice effect on my acne. I am always cautious about skin products because of the acne, but this actually cleared it up just a bit. It takes 3-5 days to start to really notice a difference and you need to put it on in the morning AND evening to get the full effect. A one time sample packet is NOT going to give you an idea of what to expect, so you can probably discount the one star review by the person who only tried it once. That just isn't enough time for it to have a significant effect. I felt a small change overnight, but after 3 days it was obvious something good was happening. I have felt definite tightening around my mouth and cheeks. My skin (before using this) had started to feel thinner and less plump. This cream actually has restored some of the plump feeling. It also gives your skin a nice radiance as well. I didn't expect that, so it was an added bonus!

Let me add that I have used the Kinerase Gentle Cleanser and the Kinerase Cream for about 10 years and would not be without the cream...ever!!! Kinerase products absorb quickly, don't leave a greasy residue and have never caused me to have additional breakouts or additional oil production...that is huge in my book! I even put it under my makeup and it does not make me feel greasy! Unlike many of the Kinerase products, this cream does have a light scent. It has a very nice, mild citrus scent which goes away in a few minutes after application. It does not bother me at all and is actually rather pleasant.

It isn't a miracle cure though folks...if you want positive effects in your skin, you have to be consistent in your application and use. Once you stop using it, your skin WILL go back to it's old saggy self! If you want a permanent face lift, seek surgery. This is cream, not magic! You have to be realistic about your expectations. No cream is going to produce the results of a surgical face lift. Creams are meant for continued use. You stop the use, you lose the effect. I have had filler injections twice before (around my mouth) and really liked the effect. The results from this cream are not as profound as the effect of fillers, but it does a decent job. If you don't want to do fillers like Juvederm or Restylane then this is a good alternative...but, it has to be used regularly! I notice about 10 hours into the day that the sag starts to return; especially if I've been smiling, laughing, or talking a lot. The upside is, this bottle is tiny and you can keep it in your purse for mid-day application if you need it.

Hope this helps in your decision making process. Keep in mind that the bottle is very small and will only last about 3 months if used daily. I only have to use one pump, but it absorbs very quickly so you have to spread it fast! I really love this stuff and will use it between now and the time I get more filler injections in the future. It's not a cure, but it sure does make your face feel more plump and less saggy and for those of us who can't afford fillers once a year, this is a really good alternative!

Kinerase Extreme Lift Face is expensive, however the lady who does my facials recommended it. She says that skin has "memory" and if you can get your skin to be "lifted" for any part of the day, it will remember that. I feel like my skin looks less wrinkled when I first apply it, however this is not a miracle item and will not give you a face lift. It feels good when applied (slightly tight).

It is applied to clean skin both morning and evening. It only takes one pump and goes a long way. If I can find this at a good price again, I will buy it again, but $150 is too much money for this product (1 fluid ounce?). Everyone's skin is different, and maybe someone younger whose skin has not had so much time to wrinkle, would have more striking results. If I can buy it for $89 like I got this one, I will buy it again. I like to give products like this a few months of a chance.

Kinerase extreme face Lift is a remarkable product, I first received a free sample at Sephora and didn't try it for several months. One day I ran out of primer so I grabbed the Kinerase and put some on. I didn't notice much difference, but later in the day when I caught myself in the mirror, I noticed that I looked well rested and better than usual. After seeing small improvements, I experimented and realized that the Kinerase was making the difference.

When I decided to buy more, I discovered the price and that sent me on a wild goose chase to find a less expensive product that was as good. Couldn't! Finally, I found the Kinerase,for half price, at the Buty Store, on Amazon. I received it 2 days after I placed my order.

I am in my late fifties and have very oily skin and not too many wrinkles and I never go for facials or any treatments. Is kinerase worth the cost? For me it is.

I'll continue to use it for as long as I can see an improvement.

I'm also surprised w/ the negative review. I have a sample I got at Nordstrom and the wrinkles between my eyebrows vanished after slapping the stuff on my face! LOVE IT!

The supplier was great. Package came very quickly and well wrapped. It was a new un-opened package and the expiration date wasn't until 2011. However, the product is worthless. At least I didn't pay $150 -- only wasted $100 -- which I don't need to waste. I did one half of my face only - then did the whole face -- took photos before and after. I don't see any difference. They advertise right on the package: Lose 10 years in 5 minutes. Nowhere close to true. Don't waste your money like I did. I'm 53.

I use various other Kinerase products with good results and had high hopes for this one. I know it is not supposed to perform miracles but it does claim to provide fairly immediate results. I've been using it for four days and nights now, and the wrinkles around my mouth show absolutely no change. I'm going to give it one full week. If there is still no change, it's going back. This is too expensive to simply toss.

It does make you look younger. Face looks firmer. The only problem is it's very expensive for daily use. Regular price is $150 per 30ml bottle.

Generally someone buying the kinerase knows what they are getting, its for me a matter of delivery service with the extreme temperatures the south has without the product being ruined; the service was impeccable. I will definitely purchase again from this seller and would highly recommend this seller to others. I have ordered from them before and I was just as pleased with my previous purchase.

I used it exactly as directed everyday until I finished it and saw no results whatsoever. I do not recommend this product. I do however recommend the Kinerase 0.1% N6-furfuryladenine Lotion or Cream. I have used that daily for over ten years and feel like it has made a difference and that I have less wrinkles than people my age.
