“It's a mixed bag for me. The products I love from them I LOVE. Can take or leave a few. Their backbar isn't super expansive but I have my go tos. At my spa it is our mid-tier line and it is our top seller for sure. People really love it and the clients we have on full routines on it are having amazing results fwiw. Def an expensive buy in but I am a fan and as of right now I would buy in if I opened my own spot.”
U/MSHARPSICHORD ↗“This is my favourite brand - and i've tried a lot of the higher ends one like Skinceuticals, Obagi, etc. They use the best ingredient available and formulate with deep thoughtfulness. My favourites (40 years old, normal-dry, rosacea) which are basically my routine 1. Cleansing Complex (so gentle) 2. Pro-Heal Serum (calming, very high AOX protection) 3. Extreme Protect SPF 30 or SPF 40 (or Eclipse SPF 50 in beige) 4. Creme Cleanser (nice for morning cleansing) 5. Reparative Moisture Emulsion (lightweight and nourishing) 6.”

Add context that might help others — skin type, conditions like PCOS, what you'd tried before. The more specific, the more useful.
