Also, I do not think the Kinerase peel is "expired" as I did...

I've commented on previous samplers from here and other places on my blog (and have pics there too).
Just want to add that at least here you know what you are getting.
I get the samplers from Test Tube/New Beauty and those are just quarterly and you never know what you get.
Also get the "my pretty pink box" again another guess as to what you get (and slow shipping).
The Beauty Cache from Skincarerx wins hands down as you know what you are getting in advance and do not have to wait to get your order.
You can also order more than one!

I am not sure how others can find something wrong with everything. The 2 caches I have tried so far have been very exciting and full of fun new things to try--and with full sizes! Also the gift card is a great value. No doubt at all that they are worth $29.99. I don't even wonder what they are worth! They are exactly what they should be-- fun and useful sample offerings for people who love new beauty products!
I just received summer cache and it's not bad. I still love the first one (winter) the most, but like summer one way better than spring. I received all full sized products from description (La Roche Posey Redermic cream expires 12/2010 so I will use it first), plus additional Skinmedica cleanser 1oz, B.Kamins maple body lotion 0.41 oz, B.Kamins lip balm 0.33 oz, Peter Thomas Roth Max Sheer all day moisture defense lotion 0.25 oz and DermaNew Firming eye cream 0.14 oz. Total 11 cosmetics, apothica gift card plus bag which is thick and well made. I wanted nostly sunscreen and lip balms so I'm happy.
Kinerase peel, observations

I did contact Skincarerx about the issues with the peel and their customer service was great!
Also, I do not think the Kinerase peel is "expired" as I did manage to use the peel and it just seems the stuff on the stick comes off easily when you rub it on your face.
The peel did make my skin smoother, but I think the product is just badly designed and does not travel well.
If they can find a way to make a better peel, I have seen some companies they have a sponge or pad you rub on your face and that usually works.
For the Kinerase peel I ended up using my fingers to get the peel on my face and I know ir says to leave it on, but for me who can not stand strong acids I had to rinse off the peel after 5 minutes.
It still did make my skin smoother,but I can not seem to go over 8 or 10% in any acid product yet.
So now I know this product is not for me.
I also think that if the product was expired it would have not worked at all and it did work on me quite well (considering it was only on my face 5 minutes that is).
I did have smoother skin from using the peel,so that is nice.
So, overall I'm quite happy with the Beauty Cache so far.
I got a M2 full size body refinish 15% in the last one and now I'm kind of annoyed at Skincarerx because I will have to buy this product forever now!
Actually I should say I am thrilled M2 lotion really helped my dry feet and elbows and I will always buy that now!
Can't wait for the next Cache and to find out what the summer samples will be!
I was disappointed that I did not get a few of the products listed on the "what you MIGHT get" list. I was also very disappointed in the Kinerase Pro Therapy Advanced Radiance Facial Peel(s); three. They all were falling apart when I attempted to swipe them across my face as instructed. I think that is a really poor decision for SkinCareRx to offer expired products in their Cache of samples. I did pay for something. And SkinCareRx guaranteed themselves $75 in sales if I used the eCertificate, which I did. So why should I pay to receive expired products?
I came home after a long, stressful day last week to find my package from Skin Care RX and this Beauty Cache waiting for me. I was so impressed with the number of products I received. I haven't tried them all, but I absolutely love the Kinerase, La Roche Posay, and Hydropeptide products. My absolute favorite is the Eminence Organic Rosehip Maize Exfoliating Masque! I noticed results immediately! Softer, smoother skin and my breakouts disappeared within 2 days! I plan to share a few products with my friends and will ask for their input. This Beauty Cache is a great idea and a great value. It's nice to be able to try new products and then use the $25 gift card later to purchase the ones we liked best. Thank you for offering these excellent products. I'm looking forward to next season's beauty cache already!
Thank you for the wonderful gift, I'm super impressed by the offering. I received Kinerase, Obagi and SkinCeuticals (all very pricey products) and am VERY happy!
Whether it's for you or "Not for you...", you like what's in it, you don't like what's in it, you use those products or you never use those products~ is completely IRRELEVANT to the concept of the promotional Beauty Cache offer. The bottom line is: what they give in return for what we pay (or more often than not, DON'T pay- through the form of included gift cards, additional promotions, coupon codes etc.) FAR exceeds us in terms of monetary value- and judging by the amount of positive feedback, in terms of product value as well! Take a trip around cyberspace, check out other skincare sites... I challenge you to find another skincare site that offers anything CLOSE to SkincareRx's Beauty Cache for $29- in fact, I challenge you to find another site (or even local drug store) where you can get much of ANYTHING for $29!! To complain that this offer is "not worth it" is ludicrous.
Wow, I just received this cache as part of this site's latest sales promotion, and am really bowled over. There's a HUGE container of the M2 15% Body Refinsher; a sample of the Juara Rice Facial Cleanser that I'm going to get at least a weeks use out of; what looks to be a full size version of Clinicians Complex's Lip Enhancer (almond); a container of some really wonderful smelling bath oil, a sample of the Jane Iredale PureLash Conditioner (which I've been dying to try), and quite a few other sample I frankly just don't feel like typing out.
I have to say, I think this gift cache is a bit better than the first one, which I actually purchased. I understand that these things can be something of a crap shoot as far as what you might receive each time, but I have to say, I feel like I really lucked out this go-around.
I first gave this product a relatively low rating but after trying multiple samples, I actually fell in love with some of the products - I had a chance to test the products I had never tried before, I fell in love with some of it and actually ordered in regular size and I have already spent my $25 gift card. I am very glad I ordered this beauty cashe and was introduced to some wonderful product.
On of the things with skincare is the fact that you need to know how your face will react to products before you put down your hard earned money for them. This cache is a great way to try before you buy - I really like the generous samples that let me get a good idea of a product. It's a big help in deciding what to get.
I was very happy with the beauty cache that I received today, which included full size M2 body refinishing cream, which itself retails for about $44, and which I already use and love. Also, got some good quality deluxe products, as well as a full size lip complex.
YES....Have spent thousands over the years when I would have prefered smaller sized product. SkincareRX has finally offered a reasonable priced product with a VARIETY of samples large enough to test more than one use. After reading reviews, I can only think many of these people are looking for a free ride and nothing more. This is a great opportunity to experiment and both consumer and company can win. I Hope These people don't spoil it for those of us that want this chance. Although I noticed that most of the dissatisfied are anonymous!
My comments are about the old cache (pocka dot bag one).
I was pleased with the variety of samples.
Some were not huge, but considering the size of a full product-I am very pleased!
A DDf cream was 15ml-but the full prouct is 50ml and costs $130..kind of too much to spend without testing first!
I also had received a sample of Phytomer clay mask and that was 15ml,
the full product is 50-60ml and costs $50!
The phytomer mask was very nice and I will buy some of that line now I'm sure!
Considering you also get a coupon for $25 off, this is a great deal!
I just received my Beauty Cache and found it a little disappointing. The bag is not very useful and the samples are too tiny. You will not be able to test any of the products or see any kind of results. I also don't think they put "customer favorites" in there as advertised.
I just received my new cache. Great value for my dollar. All these products are very expensive and the samples are much larger than you usually get in orders. Gift card offsets nearly all the cost, plus full size products well over value. I will definatly do this again, if simply to try different products and compare to my current faves.
I received my SkinCareARx Beauty Cache today and I am somewhat disappointed. There is a note that contents may vary and the items in my Beauty Cache DID vary! Three items that I really wanted ( that were in the description )were not in the Cache. Overall, I guess it is ok as there is a 25 gift card that will cover the cost but pretty sure I would not auto ship as you do not know what you are getting until you receive your Cache.
I donot have my cache yet, but am assuming it will have thpills in them!
The Vitamedical pills you can also use them for brusing like if youhappen to have a fall orsomething or after going to the dentist also.
So, if you read up about the ingredients it is just a new brand trying to market a product that has been around.
I actually wanted to try arnica tablets, so looking forwards to the cache.
I bought 3 of the last cache and two were very similar and one entirely different.
The people I gave them to enjoyed getting them!
This cache was not as good as the first one but still absolutely worth the price. I didn't receive the gift card, which is ok because you have to spend $100 which I am not likely to do in one order. I LOVE the MD Skincare Vitamin C serum and am enjoying trying many of the other deluxe-sized samples. The pills were an odd item to be included - one was a sunscreen in pill form (weird) and the others were specifically for people that had swelling from post cosmetic surgeries (not ever likely in my case). Still overall, a lot of good stuff to try.
I bought 2 previous caches, they were that good-few full size items, make up and skincare samples, cleansers, selftanners, face powder, masks..This cache is so disappointing, very small products, and particularly I didn't care for any pills! Definitely not a good value like rpevious one. Returned it.
I love to try samples, don't get me wrong. But that is all that I received-samples. I would like to know just which item is supposed to be full size ?!? I realize that every kit isn't going to be the same and even the 'deluxe sizes' have a certain monetary value, but I really feel like I was fooled. I would have liked to find at least one item in a bigger size that was listed. Is that so wrong ?
Raise your hand if you've spent hundreds every year trying out different/(new and improved!) skin care products in an effort to narrow down the perfect product for your skin? Raise your hand if most of those hundreds have gone to waste?
Well the definition of insanity is 'repeating the same method over and over expecting different results.' When I heard about SkinCareRx's beauty Cache and the products that they included, and THE PRICE, I knew I couldn't pass this up! I was so sick of impulsively buying products to test out and throwing them away because they just didn't work.
I love the fact the SkinCareRx included the pricier products that I would have normally hesitated to buy for fear that it wouldn't work, but because of the unbeatable price, I didn't even think twice. Here was my chance to test it all out and not have to cry over the fact that I forked over $100 or more on one product, when I only had to pay $30 for over 10 different expensive products!
Besides this being a no-brainer on price, thanks to SkinCareRx I have found my new facewash. The Juara facewash is a dream!! It's not harsh and even removed my waterproof mascara. I also loved the SkinCeuticals, SkinMD serum, the Product hair texturizer, and...well just about everything!
This is a perfect chance to try some new products that would usually cost you a fortune and discover the perfect solution for your skin.
I also loved that most of the products were gears towards fighting wrinkles, regenerating skin cells for youthfulness, sun protection and brightening skin tones. These are the areas that most concerns someone my age (mid 20's).
Seriously, don't pass up on this chance.
I love being able to test products before I purchase them, and have found several products I would definitely use again, like the md skincare hydra-pure vitamin c serum. It feels like silk going on to my face!
I adore the bag that the products came in, and my teenaged daughter immediately adopted it as her own.
Shipping was fast and everything arrived in perfect condition.
I found this to be a great value. For only $29,95 you get a great assortment of products to try and some are full sized. The gift card that you get is alone fabulous! Most of the products I have never tried previously, and I will be buying in the future because of this.
I really enjoyed receiving the trial sized products before committing to buy the full sized product.
Some of the items I may not buy, but I will definitely be buying the rice face cream as well as the vitamin c serum!!
The sunscreen is also my new favorite as is the tinted moisturizer. This is a fantastic way to try out new products and it would also make a great gift!
I purchased the first beauty cache and was so impressed, i couldn't wait for the second one to come out- what a let down!! no deluxe samples and no samples of anything great. Looking over the list of possibilities (before i ordered) i saw many things i'd be happy with, but i didn't get most, if any, of them! This version of it has kind of turned me off. I doubt i'll order this again.
There were no full size items at all, like there was in the first. It seems like the first may have been better to get people to sign up for quarterly shipment. I really liked the first and even ordered a second one, but there just isn't that much to this one.
I did not receive a $25 gift card in my package. I have tried 2 products from the box so far. The Kinerase Advanced Radiance Facial Peel was ruined. I opened the packet and there was a plastic stick with crumbly orange matter. I tried to apply it to my face and it just crumbled and fell off all over my clothes. The other product was the Yonka Wash Cream, which had no directions and I have no idea whether this is a rinse off product or not.
I just received new cache, and I like the previous one so much better! The new blue bag is ok, but grey polka dot is cuter for me.
The gift card is $25 when you spend $100.
There are not even 1 full size product, unless some pomade for hair is full size (1.5 oz).
I received:
-3 Kinerase facial peel sachetes,
-Colorescience mini orb in Almost Clear (the darkest color), 4g,
-MD Skincare tinted moisturizer sample in Light,
-MD skincare eye cream sample,
-Marina lipstick in beuty bronze,
-Jane Iredale mini eyelash conditioner,
-Skinceuticals Phloretin ampoule,
-bond no9 parfume sample,
-lavender body lotion 1.5 oz,
-Juara rice face cleanser 1 oz,
-Heliocare 10 tablets supplement for skin,
-Vitamedica 40 tablets supplement for reduction of discomfort, bruising and swelling from injectable procedures.
Total 15 thing plus bag, but previous version was better deal for $25!!
Agree there were too many cleansers in first cache
I used most of the products in the first cache except for the cleansers, which I agree with someone else, that it was about 90%, and why I'm leary of getting the second cache. I still have most of the cleansers left. I did like the other products and am finishing up some.
What better company to introduce me to skincare brands I've never tried before? I love the Beauty Cache, and would positively recommend it to friends. The anti-aging selection included is wonderful, and universally useful products like sunscreens and moisturizers make the kit a winner for all ages.
Just thought I'd update my review.
After speaking with customer service at Skincare RX, I am quite pleased.
I got a ton of items, I'm not too worried that some are "unknown brands"as some people here are not satisfied with.
I mean there are so many brands out there today you can not hear of everything anyways.
Skincare RX said they would send me a comparable skincare serum as I did not get one in my items and had ordered when it was still advertised.
So far in my dealings with Skincare Rx customer service has been very helpful.
I will probably get the next beauty cache as it seems interesting too!
If you like trying new products it is an affordable way to do so.
I am also quite happy with the shiping to Canada and fast shiping.
Compared to another big cosmetics website that never ships any promotional items to Canada or other places- Skincare Rx will be getting a lot of my future business!
Overall the packaging and presentation of my cache is great!
The bag is a nice poka dot fabric case!
Kind of disapointed I did not get the Kinerase serum that was advertised as being included when I ordered.
I got a Revale skin cleanser instead.
Sure, that is still good...exept I really wanted to try the Kinerase serum and ordered the beauty cache because of that...
Did get the Colorscience sunscreen small size and glad as I really want to try that product before getting the bigger size.
Still, it is a good value to try new products that I do not know about.
I received my BeautyCache kit on 4/19/2010. Here is what was included:
Revaleskin Facial Cleanser Exclusive 0.1% CoffeeBerry formulation 6flz oz (full size)
Obagi Nu-Derm Healthy Skin Protection SPF 35 1fl oz
RevitaLash Mascara 7.39mL/0.25 Fl Oz
Sun Zents Perfume Sample .03 fl oz (sample)
Pharmacopia Lavender Body Lotion 1.8 fl oz
Nucelle Mandelic Glacial Clay Deep Cleansing Masque 0.34fl oz (sample)
Nucelle Rx Step 3 Mandelic Marine 10% Serum (sample)
iS Clinical Hydra-Cool Serum 1 dram (sample)
Marina Cosmetics Sea Perfected Lipstick in Iced Spice
LRP Lipikar Smoothing and Restoring Lipid-Replenishing Foot Care Concentrate 5mL (sample)
Murad Active Radiance Serum 0.125 fl oz (sample)
Murad Intensive Wrinkle Reducer Creme-Gel 0.125 fl oz (sample)
Colorescience SPF 30 Powder Sun Protection 0.08oz (sample)
All in all, I did not feel it was worth it at all and will not repurchase again. There are a lot of unknown products it seems, or only sample sizes of known products, or products that have terrible reviews, especially the full size Revaleskin Facial Cleanser :(
Getting this beauty cache was like being served a full line of products I could try, and they are all of great quality! My problematic skin wouldn't settle for anything less and filled with harsh chemicals. There are so many items in this cache my skin ended up loving! No way I could've ever discovered these by going from beauty websites and reading a bible of reviews and end up with a haul of full sized products I'd never use. Here's what I got in my cache:
~ PHARMACOPIA Lavender Body Lotion (great smell and none greasy, generous size, too) ~ LA ROCHE POSAY Biomedic Conditioning Solution (I love this brand, I already am a fan of their mattifying emulsion!) ~ OBAGI Sunscreen SPF35 ~ DDF Advanced Firming Cream ~GLYTONE Cleanse Mild Gel Wash (full sized!) ~ SKINCEUTICALS Retexturizing Activator ~ SUD PACIFIQUE parfum spray ~ OLE HENRIKSEN truth serum collagen booster (packet) ~ DERMATOLOGICA daily microfoliant (packet) ~ NUCELLE Mandelic Marine serum ~NUCELLE Deep Cleansing Masque ~COLORSCIENCE sunforgettable SPF 30 powder (my mother-in-law swears by this, together with this cache, I also purchased a full size in clear, it's nice that they threw in a tinted one so I can compare!) ~DERMALOGICA hydration set (a set within a set! it's got toner, booster, masque and eye repair! wow!)
I can't wait for the next one!
I received my SkincareRx beauty cache two weeks ago and I cannot believe that I finally found something that actually helps my sensitive, acne prone, and aging skin. I would have never tried these products if they were not included with the cache. I had never heard of the Nucelle skin care line. I received two products from them and I tried the Nucelle Step 3 Mandelic Marine 10% serum first and I am amazed by the results. This serum has drastically helped with my large pores, acne, and uneven skin tone. I will be ordering the full size. I then tried the Nucelle Mandelic Glacial Clay Deep Cleansing Masque and I cannot say enough good things about that product. I have found my new skincare regimen thanks to this cache. I also want to note that all the samples are very high quality products and they are very generous in size. I am also pleased because I received my shipment two days after I submitted my order. Thank you SkincareRx. I am a fan for life!
I was reading the description about this cache that says it includes a full sized kinerase advanced repair serum worth over $100 and many of the reviews here also mention that there are 18 items in total. What I get is 12 items and the only full-sized product is a big bottle of cleanser! well, i'm not complaining about the value, cos when you add everything together they should be worth over $29. But I feel cheated when your description clearly states that there is a full-sized serum of $ worth $100 while what I get is a $28 cleanser. Beware if you have put this product into the Autoship.
I was also a past Test Tube subscriber, but it was basically new brands or stuff I just didn't care about. Cost more too. This collection was a terrific surprise - high end brands, products I'll actually use, and great sizes. I can't wait for the next one!
I could not believe the value when I opened this set!! Normally, when I receive these types of sets, I can only use 1 or 2 items-this time I can actually use ALL of the items!! --and I love most of them!! The sizes are more than generous too!! Great way to try new, fabulous items, great for travel, and the bag is wonderful!! A
This is beyond worth the money! Sooo many cool brands that I wouldn't have tried without it! The colorscience spf alone is worth it to me. Def put this one on auto-ship. Even is you don't love everything - it's fun to try all the new products without having to spend major $!!!
I previously subscribed to TestTube through another company that had a similar theme, samples of products sent at regular intervals. There is NO comparison however in the quality of the items included in this kit! Not only is the makeup case adorable, but the Obaji cleanser 2oz, the dermatologic skin care set, ddf, sothys, kinerase, La Roche-Posay and a whole bunch more far surpassed any expectations I had. Excellent products for an insane price. This is a must for any beauty product addict!
I read through some of these reviews and was quite surprised. Have they never priced these items before? The Kinerase alone is worth $132, the dermalogica boost kit is another $25, Obagi 2 zo cleanser is another $25, Skinceuticals another $15-20, and there are still 10 samples I did not price, from La roche-Posay, Sothys, nucelle, phytomer, DDF, and others.....So you spent $40.00 on well over $200 of product, great for trying out before you commit to full size and VERY expensive products. The samples are huge, enough for many, many uses. I have no idea what these people are complaining about, but it is a fantastic deal if you have wanted to try high end products and cannof afford to go for the full size without knowing if it will work for you.
The bag itself is so cute...Online it looked like a cheap plastic polka dot thing but it is actually a tafetta type fabric and really well made. The products were so fun to go through and the variety was awesome....cleansers, moisturizers, serums, masques, sunscreens.....all high end names and very usable products. I am very pleased and am considering getting another one.
I got my Beauty Cache yesterday. I was very happy with it. What I was most impressed with was the quickness of it's arrival. I also like that I can communicate with you and know that I will receive a timely answer. Thank you
I am so happy with my products! What a deal, yes the Kinerase is over priced but $30 is real good and then the extras. I did not get everything in the picture, maybe 4 different products but I did get a total of 18 items! I probably would not have been very happy if I received a lot of cleanser. I love the fact that this site has the ingredients listed so I was able to find out nothing I received has soy in it! Soy makes my wrinkles, I mean fine lines worse. I am a product junkie so I signed up for auto ship, even though discounts don't apply :-( If you haven't purchased this yet you should, maybe after reading the complaints they will instruct the packers to try included different types of products. Buy it!
The bag is cute and the full size Kinerase is great, but beyond that the rest of the contents of my beauty cache were disappointing. All the other products were sample sizes and I would say that 90% of the products were cleansers. I can't possibly wash my face that much! I was hoping to be able to discover some amazing new products and it is nice to try a new product without having to pay for a full-sized container, but I definitely was hoping to get more than just cleansers to try. It is kind of fun to get a mystery bag of surprises so I will wait for next quarter's shipment before canceling, but I really hope I don't get anymore cleansers!
What a deal!! For any "product junkie" this is absolutely irresistible! I didn't believe what was included! Order now, you will be soooo happy with your package.
I received this package today. I was very pleased with all of the contents and even the bag is very stylish! Great products! I can't wait to try them all!
It was very clear from the beginning what you would get with this set -- a bit of a "mystery kit" that would contain deluxe samples of products from many different lines. It clearly states "Contents may vary." So I don't give any credence to the indignation and outrage expressed by those whose packets did not exactly match the picture.
My experience was excellent -- I ordered a kit which came damaged (one of the samples had leaked and gotten all over everything and the bag), and they were quick to send me a new one and prepaid mailing labels for the return of the old one. Even though the original and replacement kits were sent just days apart, they had different contents -- which is what was advertised!
The value is great for the money, and sure, there may be something in your particular kit that you aren't interested in, but that's what happens when you sign up for a not-quite-random assortment of things. At $30 this is a steal.
Also, unlike many other cosmetics kits, the bag is a reasonable and useful size, not a teeny-tiny thing that is functionally useless. I will order again.
I ended up ordering another because I loved the first one so much. Its worth just the Kinerase alone. That serum is $130 alone. My second kit was definitely different, in addition to the full size kinerase I got a full size dermanew body scrub! There are things I won't use, but really who cares? It was 30 bucks, got a great little travel bag and some seriously fantastic products. I'll definitely order another down the road. I just wish they made different bags. Having a ton of the silver kinda stinks..but oh well!
I absolutely CANNOT believe i got all of this for only $29.95. The Kinerase serum alone averages over $100 in cost normally, and the other samples are truly DELUXE samples. SkinCare RX threw in a few small sample bonusses as well. You might receive one or two of these at a time in a dermatologist's office, but the office visit would cost more than $29.95 and you wouldn't get such an awesome haul. I'm seriously thinking about getting a second one, or at least updating the autoship option to as often as they have available. I'm awestruck by the value.
I received my beauty cache today and I'm pretty happy with it. My kit included the Kinerase Pro Therapy repair syrum which is anywhere from $75-$135 (depending where you buy it from) so the kit was well worth the price. Most of the other samples are only good for a few uses but certainly worth trying out to see how they work. I was also happy that I received a 2 oz Obagi cleanser (I've used their products before with great results). This kit offers you a chace to try some great brands and an excellent cost, give it a try.
I loved the SkinCareRx Beauty Cache I received. Lots of generous samples....all items I've wanted to try before. Thank you for this wonderful opportunity to try before I buy!
I got my 3rd cache (I'm such a sucker for beauty deals like that:) and I'm very happy. Especially with Avene Retrinal which I was willing to try to compare to Obagi tretinoin I use, and Avene self tanner. I recommended this beauty cache to my sister and she is very happy, and also thinking about getting one more!
That cache is really awesome, you get so many cool things for only $30! Of course Kinerase serum is a star cause if you by it by itself is much more expensive. I am very happy with what I got and I just bought another one.
Honestly, did some of you even read the description regarding what you were actually purchasing? Especially the parts the read, "...as well as a generous selection of deluxe sized (aka sample sized)", and "...the contents may vary..."?
Whatever the case, this a cache is a deal at double the price for the full sized Kinerase alone, let alone all the samples that come with it.
This is a fabulous deal, complainers are just cheap
For $30, this is a really great value. It says contents vary, and they do! Don't expect to get EXACTLY what is in the picture. Most items will be the same, but some will not.
I have no idea why people complain, but obviously they DO NOT read description-they even say about returning, when it says SPECIAL NOTE-not returnable. Plus this is awesome deal, even if you won't use everything, just share with family or a friend. $30 is an average price of full size item, and here is more than 10 to try, not to mention a couple of full size items. GET REAL people:)
I just received 2nd cache and must admit that 1st was better. First included exactly all pictured items, and second almost everything is different (except Kinerase serum and skinceuticals serum sample). Too bad I didn't get selftanner and colorescience items too. So i can understand that some customers are upset. Also I received some topical stuff for psoriasis which states that contains ingredients that can cause cancer-wow, should they even produce such things?
Bash the dissatisfied customers? Each has a right to their own opinion and should not be bashed because of it. The reason I give 3 stars is I really don't see how SkincareRX could value this cach anywhere close to $350.00. This statement is very misleading and I can understand why some people were unhappy.
The "worth $350" catchphrase is somewhat misleading, in that you expect more product than what you actually get - still, the contents of the Cache' are worth well over $30. It's a reasonable deal, and you do get to sample a range of products from excellent skincare lines. A number of the samples (the Obagi and MD Forte cleansers) are quite large, whereas the others are basically what you'd expect from sample sizes. And yes, there are at least two sample 'packages' (totaling about six samples in all) that are just body products. Keep in mind, though, that just the Kinerase serum retails for over $100 - although my gripe is that my serum looks like it was gathering dust in a stockroom for a long while; there's literally dust stuck to the protective sticker tabs, which is gross. I almost purchased 2 of these initially, but I'm glad I waited. Worth the money - and no, you won't get a refund (re: Special Note).
I received my order today, I don't see how the value of this kit could be $350. In addition, the Kinerase Pro-Therapy is the only full size product, everything else is sample sizes.
Shame on you Skincare RX!
I don't know how people can be upset about this sample bag-you get exactly what is on the picture (although I received Obagi SPF instead of wash, but not a biggie). Some samples are smaller, but some are pretty generous. Most stuff is for EVERY skin, Dermalogica is a hydration set (also great for oily or combination skin), and the only stuff for really dry skin is Phytomer and La Roche Posey sets, most for body like body lotions which is dry usually!
This is really for every skin, anti aging products, I don't know why 1 star.
And plus Kinerase full size product for 130 dollars (for wrinkles and pigmentation).
What do you guys whant for $30???
The only stuff for very dry skin is a BODY set rom la Roche Posey (shower cream, lotion and hand cream). The rest is for ALL SKIN TYPES as it says on most products. Some of them are small (eye creams, but you need just a bit), the rest are generous. There are two sunscreens (Obagi and Colorescience powder, which I wanted to try but it's kind of pricey, and I'm glad I received that because is great), hydration set from Dermalogica (I use on my combo skin and it's great), Phytomer body set (scrub, body lotion, hand cream, seasalt bath) for all skin types, DDF pore and wrinkle minimizer, Skinceuticals Pherulic serum and more. Most samples are 1 oz if not more! And I love full size self tan, great color and smell. I love this set!!!
"I received my order today, I don't see how the value of this kit could be $350. In addition, the Kinerase Pro-Therapy is the only full size product, everything else is sample sizes. Shame on you Skincare RX!"
WHAT?:) Selftanner is also full size, bunch of products are pretty generous. Did you wanted for $30 bag filled with all full size products. I think Skincarerx gave us great cache for superb price!
I was so disappointed when I received the bag. They are small samples and lots of them are for body. There's no way for me to believe they worth over $350. I never shopped on SkinCareRX before, and I won't buy from this website again... I will pay the shipping cost and return it.
I think at least some of the people who're saying that they don't know how this item could have a value of $350 have never purchased any of the sample kits available from this site. I purchased a PCA sample kit for my hyperpigmentation a while ago; it contained 6 items, and cost about $50.
I should add that in spite of the everything being sample sized, most of the products lasted for 3 weeks at least before all were finally used up. This turned out to be more than long enough for me to discover that PCA produced outstanding, extremely effective products, and I've been a loyal customer of the brand ever since.
Personally, even though I have absolutely no use for a self tanner or a few of the other items I've received, I believe this cache is still a magnificent deal!
As for truth in advertising, SkinCareRX was 100% up front regarding what was full sized and what wasn't (Exactly what did some of you think "deluxe size" meant?)
Honestly, is sounds like some people purchased this item without having read the description carefully, not knowing exactly what certain terms meant, or both
I received this cache today, and the items are NOT exactly the same as shown in the picture. First of all, I received 15 items in total, not 17 items as shown in the picture. Second, some items are different as shown in the picture. I didn't get the three Phytomer items at all as shown in the picture and I didn't get the Obagi item in the picture. The Sothys item I got was different from what it shows in the picture. It is a cheat!
Most of the products are sample sizes and are very small. I cannot use most of the products, because they are for extremely dry skin, and there is also a self-tanning lotion which I have no need for. This product is definitely not worth $30.00. Also, be wary of the return policy. You will not be refunded for your shipping costs, and you also must pay for the return shipping. I am very disappointed!! So don't buy this cache.
One of the best deals ever. I just received mine and purchased one more. There is sunscreen, face products (serum for sun spots, pore minimizer, eye cream etc), face self tanner, body wash. Most of the products are really generous. get it:)
this is definitely worth the money, especially if you like trying new things. I got pretty much everything in the picture, except that little blue tub of whatever. some of the things were were for body, but they also included a lot of face stuff, including a .5 oz bottle of kinerase pro therapy advanced repair serum, about $100 if purchased alone. most of the samples are delux sample sized, and i will probably use everything, except the face tanner (bc i'm already tan). This is definitely a great deal.
most of them are for body, except a 0.5oz kinerase serum (good value) and a 1oz obagi sunscreen. There're other small samples for face too, a phytomer face cream, a DDF anti-aging pore minimizer, a sample set of dermalogica, and an eye cream, as I can remember. Others are for body. Not interested in body items... but still, this bag definitely worth $30.
