1.The $150 Brow Gel

I ran out of brow wax mid-Zoom call and panic-smeared this on my brows. They stayed put for 11 hours. No flaking.

That’s when I realized I’d been wasting this stuff on just my face. Perricone MD Cold Plasma+ is a fixer-upper for literally everything — not just your “aging” neck.

2.💅Wait, What Is This Actually?

It’s a $149 treatment serum that promises to “reprogram” tired skin. I bought it because I’m a sucker for sci-fi packaging and the claim that it works in 7 days.

1

Texture = liquid silk

Feels like nothing after 10 seconds. Absorbs completely. No sticky residue.

2

Tiny bottle, big punch

One pump covers your whole face + neck. I’ve had mine 6 weeks and it’s still 1/3 full.

3

Smells expensive (in a good way)

Light citrus. No grandma perfume. You won’t hate it.

3.👁️The Ingredient Nerd-Out

Dr. Perricone loves his patented neuropeptides — they basically tell your skin to stop acting tired. But the real MVP here is DMAE. It’s a firming compound that gives you that “I slept 9 hours” look without Botox.

  • DMAE: instant lift without the freeze
  • Copper peptides: wound-healing for acne scars
  • Vitamin C ester: brightens without stinging
  • Alpha lipoic acid: antioxidant that actually penetrates
4.💋The Honest First Week

First pump: it’s watery. Almost disappointing. Then it sinks in and your skin feels… bouncy. Like a memory foam mattress for your face.

Week 3: My pores looked smaller. Not “erased” (stop lying, ads), but definitely less obvious. And my cuticles grew faster. Weird but true.

💡

One Thing: Use it as emergency concealer. Dab a drop over redness — it neutralizes within 30 seconds. No creasing.
5.🧴Real Results, Real Talk

My nasolabial folds are slightly softer. My skin is less reactive. It did not erase my 11pm face — nothing does.

Buy if
Your skin feels “flat” and you want a glow that doesn’t rely on makeup.
⏭️

Skip if
You have cystic acne — the peptides might clog you up.
💰

Worth it?
If you use it for 3 things (face + brows + cuticles), yes. Otherwise, it’s a luxury.
6.🌟Final Call

It’s the Swiss Army knife of serums. Not a miracle, but a very smart workhorse — especially if you hate hoarding 12 bottles.
