Hi, thank you for your videos, I really like them. I went to Neiman Marcus and I bought a NUFACE device, I know you only do cream reviews, but it would be interesting to hear your opinion about this electric device called NUFACE. I have read very conflicting reviews and it's pricey. > Also, and I don't mean to be rude, but how do you find the money to buy all those expensive creams? Or you just have friends who can selle them at a discounted price? Lastly, I love LOS ANGELES, I really love it
Ive used two jars of the Sublimage eye cream, and it does what i want it to do! It has reduced my dehydration lines, it brightens my under eye area, and provides moistiure the whole day :D It is awesome to mix it with a concealer aswell, i do it with the YSL touch eclat. Ty for the review
Hey there... I loved this review, thanks so much for doing this. Can you suggest other options to this cream? I am 26 and have a lot of under eye darkness. I would like to start with something to help this. Thanks so much!
hello dear. after watching this video I bought this chanel cream:) It's really makes your under eye darkness better, but it's only because of hesperedin in the cream, what is also actually a good antioxidant.. the good thing in this cream is that it has soo much qualane and shea butter. so after using guerlan orchidee, la mer, la prairie, chanel, sisley, orlane I would say, that la mer and la prairie are the best. all the other want just to be them:))lol
I don't think I've seen such a comprehensive review before. To borrow another's tag line - "fair and balanced."
Vitamin K is said to be helpful in combating under eye darkness. A physician can prescribe a stronger product than can be purchased 'over the counter.' One should consider consuming Vitamin K as a supplement to the diet as well, or eating more dark leafy greens daily.
Hmm "life factors"..I can just imagine these guys sitting around a desk trying to think up new ways to say "young stuff". I wonder if ice cream would work just as well. Haagen-Daz of course...
I have started using the La Mer Eye concentrate and the Rejuvenating Serum. Watch this space!!
i have been looking for a good "starter" eye cream .. i was wondering if you could recommend something for a girl in her early 20's ? i do not have much darkness under my eyes nor any puffiness just some fine lines.. im guessing from dehydration. thanks !
200 dollars?!? That is painful. And its a commission, not a kickback, its part of sales and is expected. I imagine working at a counter that does not have commission is less desirable.
@johnlovesbridge The kickback is an additional lump of money they get in addition to their standard commission for promoting the sublimage (the msot expensive) line specifically.
I only recently discovered your channel, but I absolutely love your videos! They're very informative, and very high quality. Could you make some more DIY videos? Thanks, subbed :)
@KTS1223 Hello. First off, Welcome!! I am very honored to have you. Also, I appreciate your kind words. Yes, I am making many more DIY videos so keep your eyes opened for those :D -Michael
Michael PLEASE tell me what to look for concerning a generic retinal cream. I found a generic online that carries 0.25 all the way up to 1.0 (I think) I’m going to start with the .25% per your recommendation. You have purchased a generic in the past and it appeared to work well for you. I want to try this and I’ve been waiting to get your input.
Thanks for a great review on the above product also. Love :-) Kat
@Mrsjustheretolearn Hello. Make sure you are looking for a .025% :D. But yes you are on the right track. I find that the generic brands work just as well as the non-generic...they are exactly the same some may argue. I have purchased mine from so many different locations that I cant really recommend one, but you definitely want to start with the lowest concentration...or, if your skin is pretty sturdy, you can start with the .05% They usually offer a gel or a cream form (creme for dry skin) :D
Wow... I've never seen your videos before, and I'm so glad I found you. Not only are you informative, you're STUNNING. Keep up the amazing work, Michael :)
@TheSublimeAgent I will keep up the work that is not NEAR as amazing as yours. Thank you for subscribing and thank you for replying to this comment <3
@arab4ever Hehe...I agree. The lighting kinda makes me look a bit more chubby than I actually am. Believe it or not, but I think I weigh a bit less than I did last year haha. Thanks for watching!
how FANTASTIC this foundation is, it goes on so easily with the foundation brush, literally takes me a minute or less to get a great finish, I put on some bronzer and all set. (Armani Bronzer by the way). My skin looks so smooth, its unbelievable, the foundation lasts all day until evening and the bronzer does not fade, again WOW!!
Armani Lastin Silk Foundation,how FANTASTIC this foundation is, it goes on so easily with the foundation brush, literally takes me a minute or less to get a great finish, I put on some bronzer and all set. (Armani Bronzer by the way). My skin looks so smooth, its unbelievable, the foundation lasts all day until evening and the bronzer does not fade, again WOW!!
@sergehowcast I know :/ I totally forgot to mention. Well, I sent the full size one in the original chanel jar to my friend in Dubai mentioned in the video. As for mine, I just de-tubed 5 of the 3ml samples of the Sublimage Eye (which is a full size anyway) into the la mer eye concentrate container. i prefer this jar because it is opaque not transparent glass like the chanel one :D
I really appreciate your point of view and love the level of detail you cover! When it comes to Chanel and it's cost, it should be like putting freaking GOLD under your eyes. But, it either does what it says or it doesn't. There's really nothing in between. Chanel should be a bit more truthful in it's marketing. Boo Chanel!
@Knoxlette Aw, thank you so much. I agree, it really should be like gold. Still, it is important to realize that these creams last for months and months and months, so it isnt as insane in the long run I guess (haha @ me trying to justify it lol). Their marketing IS very over-the-top and I was not very impressed with the tactics behind this particular line. Their revitalizing serum is quite nice (still pretty average for a high-end beauty serum), but it is almost $500 XD. Thanks 4 watching :D
Hey could you do a review on the Lancome Genifique youth activating concentrate, the little dropper one not the pumpy one. i've been thinking about getting this for MONTHS but i've been putting it off and stuff and i love how in depth your reviews are and i'd just love to hear what you have to say about it.
@JJar18 Absolutely. I dont know if you know this, but I have been using Genefique for the last 14 days (I got it when I went home for the holidays). To be honest, I am a bit underwhelmed and I do think there are much better options. Still, I will get to this review as soon as I can. Thanks for asking :D
I know your video's are catered to high-end products but your reviews are so detailed that I would love it if you could do reviews on some drugstore/ inexpensive products that I could afford :D
@shreyavirgo Hehe, I will tell him u said that (even tho I bet he went through the comments already haha). I will definitely take your suggestion to heart. I want to focus this channel on high end products, but I would like to offer a few reviews for inexpensive products (probably more in the mid-range) :D Thanks so much for watching and offering your suggestion :D
omg, 76 comments and no one is about this eye cream:)
my dear michel, thank you so much for this review. I've been thinking bout buying this cream but I couldnt find any good review about it. Because I saw all the INCIs, they didnt impress me at all, and had the same thoughts that you have about this "rare" flower in this cream. .now I have this review:) Thank u soooo much for this. I wish, I had a boyfriend like you:)) kisses from Germany
@toxic416 Haha, I know. People have so many different things to say and ask about :D I am very happy to read your comment. I was disappointed that there were no good reviews for any of the Sublimage products...but I am happy to offer mine. haha @ the flower comment. I totally agree. The flower is for the serums and the vanilla planifolia is for the eye cream, but they are both very gimmicky hahaha. xoxo Muah!
@dianeuk01 Aww, thank you. I was so excited for this review, and I am always trying to be more concise (while remaining thorough)...haha, it only took 98 videos to get to this point. :D You've got it down already! Thanks for watching!
Hello dear! i tried to pm you for this but it wouldnt let me for some reason so i hope its ok that i am hittin you up this way :] it has been so great finding your channel, you are so fun! love it. i am choosing some prefered YTers that i would like to try out my new tag i started :] and you are so prefered ;] aha its my "TAG! Desired qualities in a significant other" tag. i hope you have fun with it and if you need any information on the tag's specifics then just check out my tag vid :]
i was thinking of this eye cream for a while ,but kinda hesitate not only because of the price .. but ,also coz i dont wanna be disappointed in " chanel "...i mean if it would 'nt be ..what i expected ,i've tried different products by them ..and fill in love ..now it is ..the top of my shopping list .. unfourtunatly, i have to try new products ..i cant stick to one ... my skin get used to them .. so they stop working .. this may work for me 2 maybe3 months ..ur friend is EMARATi ..Iool
This product, when it came out, was way overhyped...I wasn't happy with it at all. this cream is definitely only for Normal skin! Chanel skin care labs. doesn't have the experience compared to other companies. Just as with La Prairie, inside lab reports show, its more or less not much of anything.... Just went through a jar of skinceuticals, disapointed me also... For now, still sticking to Estee Lauder Re-Nutriv ultimate lift age-correcting eye cream. No puffiness in the morning anymore :-)
Thanks for the unbiased review. I can categorically say that this is a cream that I can give a miss this time round. Still on the hunt for shiseido skin range but holding out for the best monetary deal on ebay :))
I love your reviews and this was great and I was so excited when it said it helped with under eye darkness whenever you used it ... and then I goggled this and saw it was $200 :(
the search for the perfect eye cream continues:( I believe it is out there just like you! I was really disappointed with Origins ginseng here recently so I think I'll test out the others they have. I'll report back if I find a winner;) great review!
Brilliant review Blimey! I'm going to go look for your la mer review. My main issue is hydration. I nearly bought the shiseido cream but feel like I need to research more.
I always check my creams on beautypedia and they don't rate this cream very highly at all. Lots of more reasonably priced creams out there that are better. I do love some Chanel though...just not this
Thank you so much for this video! I'm looking for a good eye cream currently so this was really helpful! I love your honesty in your reviews ... and you look great :) xx
I love Chanel. What I love most is that Chanel is Chanel. It bugs me that Armani, Dior, YSL and bands like that are made by L'Oreal with fancy packaging.
@willbscene360 Dior is owned by Luis Vuitton Moet Hennessy same owner as Sephora. You are correct that the packaging drives up the price! What also drives up the price is using famous people to endorse the product together with huge advertising campaigns - MILLIONS!!!!!!!!!!!! XX
You look great!! My ears always stand up like a puppy dog when I hear about skin that will help fine lines....thankyou so much for sharing! XOXO, Sheri
Please do a revii=ew on Giorgio Armani Lasting Silk foundation,how FANTASTIC this foundation is, it goes on so easily with the foundation brush, literally takes me a minute or less to get a great finish, I put on some bronzer and all set. (Armani Bronzer by the way). My skin looks so smooth, its unbelievable, the foundation lasts all day until evening and the bronzer does not fade, again WOW!!
However, my greatest recommendation for dark circles is any product containing Vitamin K. A few years back Jamieson released a line of under-eye creams containing heavy Vitamin K and it worked wonders on my eye, unfortunately the line got discontinued and since then I haven't been able to find it. I've also bought "Biotherm Homme High recharge serum" and found it did nothing for my dark circles, but did tighten up the skin to give you a temp "I'm awake" look.
I've been dealing with dark circles for a long time, and after trying many different products (as almost everyone else has) I've found the latest one to be somewhat decent. It's called "Reversa Eyecare"; less then 1 week of usage I noticed a reduction in my dark circles. Since then, I've been using this product every day. However, I noticed that after discontinued use over a few days, the dark circles due tend to return, as well it did produce very mild Milia under the eye (not very noticeable).
i loved the la prairie cellular radiance eye cream it is also good for under eye circles and it moisturizes!!!!! also did you find out why no one invited you to the superbowl
Great review, Michael! You know what would be really helpful--if you could do a "before and after" picture of the product so we could see exactly what a "definite decrease in under-eye darkness" is for you. Since I am in the "mature" group I won't be trying this product but really appreciate your unbiased review. Looking forward to more videos from you in 2011!
ur reviews are amazing ........i dont know why they would put alcohol in their eye creams even though they say its good alcohol but still it dries out ur skin
I havent had time for youtube lately, you know, I've been so busy!
anyways... just wanted to thank you for being on youtube. now that things are back to normal, I typed your youtube username right away, because I missed you so much!!
Why did you put it in a different jar and how did you mom like it? Since the Sublimage serum now use Golden Champa PFA do you think the rest of the products are going to be switched to Golden Champa PFA as well? I mean it's weird how one is now a different PFA from the rest, so you're not going to get the maximum benefit of the PFA. I love your shirt :)
Do you have any thoughts/reviews on the line of lash growth products and especially the one that is out now that is suppose to be the generic of Latesse ? Thanks for the wonderful and very thorough review of the eye cream , Susie
Great review as always. I am pretty happy with my Cellcosmet - cellular eye contour cream treatment-. but my dark under eye circles are still visible. I am still searching for the good eye cream. Dinah XXX
It's like you read my mind Michael! I am looking for an eye cream at the moment and was thinking about La Mer, and I think I will stick to getting that one. I don't really have very dark circles.
So happy you're back! LOVE that Laura Mercier Mosaic on you!
you said company promises i laughed out loud! sadly promises dont mean much,i want to see it work on old lady or old man - if 1/4 of the promises worked there would be no fat,sagging,wrinkled,spotty people! dealing with eye creams there are so many differnt reasons for issues- does Chanel eye cream have haloxyl? its a commonly used in under eye creams for darkness and puffiness (maybe they call it something else)-nanofil works on deep lines-if anyone is interested- great review x shelly
I recently purchased La Mer's Eye Concentrate and Eye Balm Intense... I had to get both as I wasn't sure which one would suit me best so I'm pretty much set in terms of eye treatments. Now I'm curious about Chanel's eye cream too... I should definitely get a sample of it!
@blissfulNervana Hello :D I actually have my eyebrows video a few videos back if you want to check that out. Personally I pluck a small amount every two weeks :D Thanks so much for watching!
@debbick1 Hello :D Thank you Deb. I watched your purses video and the Leiber one is so ornate and beautiful. Also, I saw a few of your comments throughout the week about the ever pearl problems. I cant believe that...so unprofessional :P
@FJo83 Hello FJ. Thank you so much. I try to strive for perfection with my reviews...but there is always room for improvement. Yes, definitely get a sample if the Chanel eye cream sounds like it may be right for you. The samples last for around 2 weeks :D I will tell my friend Saeed that you said high too :D
@xAdrianaxL Aww, thank you so much! That is very very kind of you and I definitely appreciate it. I feel the same way about a few youtubers...I watch no matter what the topic is :D Plus it is fun to hear about new products
@tatt2thruandthru Interesting. I will have to write that down in my folder of products that have worked to reduce under eye problems :D It is so interesting how different products work for different people :D Thank you SO much for sharing your experience :D
Excellent review. Thank you, Michael. I'm always on the hunt for an eye cream for the reduction of under eye darkness. I don't have very dark circles, so it sounds like this product might work for me. I shall try it. I'm currently using Prevage and planning on trying Fresh Lotus next. Have you heard of or tried the Fresh eye cream? I would be curious to know your opinion about it. Thanks again!
@oshinsr Hello!! Thank you. Definitely try to get a sample first (the samples are large (3ml), which will last 2 weeks or more). You will notice an improvement with any eye darkness, which is great. I will definitely put the Fresh eye cream down on my list of products to research. Thanks for the idea :D -Michael
i had a small burn from fraxel laser on my upper lip... the blistering is gone but i have red where the burn was... i cover it with concealer.. but what go u advise me to use as skin care goes!!1 thanks really appreciated
@jujuspy I would just use something that is made for mild burns or something to prevent scarring (Mederma or something similar). Personally, I would put a tiny amount of La Mer's concentrate, because it was made originally for burns, and I find that it helps speed up the healing process. You might be able to get a sample if you live near a department store that sells it :D
@cformosa4 Thank you so much!! Totally attach as many videos as you want. I will be as quick to approve them as possible. I love your videos...and I think Ive watched them all by now. I ordered a sample of Secretions Magnifiques from The Perfumed Court a while back .... I actually really dislike it (wanted to like it haha).
@TheSublimeAgent hehe! thanks so much!! :) i am so glad you like my videos. haha Secretions is so awful :P haha :p have you watched my reaction video on it :P hahah
@xmrxsuperx To be honest, I have never really looked into it in any depth. I have only read several journal articles that try to discuss the harms of using it, so I am a bit biased so far...but I am sure it has good applications :D
@lebrondurak Aww, thanks..on both counts. I am wearing the smallest amount of the Laura Mercier shimmer bloc in Mosaic. My lighting really amplifies the effect of it, but a little goes a long (and very glowing) way :D Thanks for watching!
Oh really yeah it doesnt actually look shimmery , just very dewy and i actually thought you went tanning or something aha but i must get it! i absolutely love laura mercier :)
Do you think you could do a review on the Chanel Hydroflux tinted moisturiser? (this might be the wrong name)
I searched a couple of reviews on it but they're not really that informative , I ask you this because i think you give the best reviews on youtube when it comes to high end products.
@commuty Hello, the NARS review is right around the corner :D I have been working on many videos at once. I should just learn to focus on one at a time haha :D Thanks for checking out this review.

This product, when it came out, was way overhyped...I wasn't happy with it at all. this cream is definitely only for Normal skin! Chanel skin care labs. doesn't have the experience compared to other companies. Just as with La Prairie, inside lab reports show, its more or less not much of anything.... Just went through a jar of skinceuticals, disapointed me also... For now, still sticking to Estee Lauder Re-Nutriv ultimate lift age-correcting eye cream. No puffiness in the morning anymore :-)

Thanks for the unbiased review. I can categorically say that this is a cream that I can give a miss this time round. Still on the hunt for shiseido skin range but holding out for the best monetary deal on ebay :))

I always check my creams on beautypedia and they don't rate this cream very highly at all. Lots of more reasonably priced creams out there that are better. I do love some Chanel though...just not this

I love Chanel. What I love most is that Chanel is Chanel. It bugs me that Armani, Dior, YSL and bands like that are made by L'Oreal with fancy packaging.

@willbscene360 Dior is owned by Luis Vuitton Moet Hennessy same owner as Sephora. You are correct that the packaging drives up the price! What also drives up the price is using famous people to endorse the product together with huge advertising campaigns - MILLIONS!!!!!!!!!!!! XX

Please do a revii=ew on Giorgio Armani Lasting Silk foundation,how FANTASTIC this foundation is, it goes on so easily with the foundation brush, literally takes me a minute or less to get a great finish, I put on some bronzer and all set. (Armani Bronzer by the way). My skin looks so smooth, its unbelievable, the foundation lasts all day until evening and the bronzer does not fade, again WOW!!

Terrific review, this is the kind of opinion I wish everyone could give!
divinelilprincessss2 1 year ago
However, my greatest recommendation for dark circles is any product containing Vitamin K. A few years back Jamieson released a line of under-eye creams containing heavy Vitamin K and it worked wonders on my eye, unfortunately the line got discontinued and since then I haven't been able to find it. I've also bought "Biotherm Homme High recharge serum" and found it did nothing for my dark circles, but did tighten up the skin to give you a temp "I'm awake" look.
Mysticlies 1 year ago
I've been dealing with dark circles for a long time, and after trying many different products (as almost everyone else has) I've found the latest one to be somewhat decent. It's called "Reversa Eyecare"; less then 1 week of usage I noticed a reduction in my dark circles. Since then, I've been using this product every day. However, I noticed that after discontinued use over a few days, the dark circles due tend to return, as well it did produce very mild Milia under the eye (not very noticeable).

Great review, Michael! You know what would be really helpful--if you could do a "before and after" picture of the product so we could see exactly what a "definite decrease in under-eye darkness" is for you. Since I am in the "mature" group I won't be trying this product but really appreciate your unbiased review. Looking forward to more videos from you in 2011!

luvmymac1 1 year ago 2
Why did you put it in a different jar and how did you mom like it? Since the Sublimage serum now use Golden Champa PFA do you think the rest of the products are going to be switched to Golden Champa PFA as well? I mean it's weird how one is now a different PFA from the rest, so you're not going to get the maximum benefit of the PFA. I love your shirt :)
Take Care.

you said company promises i laughed out loud! sadly promises dont mean much,i want to see it work on old lady or old man - if 1/4 of the promises worked there would be no fat,sagging,wrinkled,spotty people! dealing with eye creams there are so many differnt reasons for issues- does Chanel eye cream have haloxyl? its a commonly used in under eye creams for darkness and puffiness (maybe they call it something else)-nanofil works on deep lines-if anyone is interested- great review x shelly

I recently purchased La Mer's Eye Concentrate and Eye Balm Intense... I had to get both as I wasn't sure which one would suit me best so I'm pretty much set in terms of eye treatments. Now I'm curious about Chanel's eye cream too... I should definitely get a sample of it!

Excellent review. Thank you, Michael. I'm always on the hunt for an eye cream for the reduction of under eye darkness. I don't have very dark circles, so it sounds like this product might work for me. I shall try it. I'm currently using Prevage and planning on trying Fresh Lotus next. Have you heard of or tried the Fresh eye cream? I would be curious to know your opinion about it. Thanks again!
oshinsr 1 year ago
@oshinsr Hello!! Thank you. Definitely try to get a sample first (the samples are large (3ml), which will last 2 weeks or more). You will notice an improvement with any eye darkness, which is great. I will definitely put the Fresh eye cream down on my list of products to research. Thanks for the idea :D -Michael

jujuspy 1 year ago
@jujuspy I would just use something that is made for mild burns or something to prevent scarring (Mederma or something similar). Personally, I would put a tiny amount of La Mer's concentrate, because it was made originally for burns, and I find that it helps speed up the healing process. You might be able to get a sample if you live near a department store that sells it :D

Do you think you could do a review on the Chanel Hydroflux tinted moisturiser? (this might be the wrong name)
I searched a couple of reviews on it but they're not really that informative , I ask you this because i think you give the best reviews on youtube when it comes to high end products.
