AMAZING!
These products are truly AMAZING. I noticed better skin from Day 1. After several months of using the entire line, my skin has never been better. It also is a simple system without too many steps- this is convenient for people on the go.

package review
love the cfreames. however, the package looks much nicer in the picture. the actual clutch is pretty cheap looking, considering the 165 price. as soon as it gets wet, the foil comes off. not happy with that at all.

So overpriced, fragrance free, pretty presentation
Ok...I have used the vBeaute It Kit for almost a month, every day, following the directions. I like the foaming cleanser very much - it did not irritate my skin and it did clean well without drying my skin. I like the exfoliating scrub well enough - again does not irritate my skin. None of the products had any real fragrance and none of them caused any breakouts or redness when used daily, so those are definate pluses.The moisturizer works just like any other brand out there - nothing special about it that I can detect. The under eye cream was useless with regard to reducing circles or darkness. (fortunately, I don't really have crow's feet yet, so I cannot comment about it's effect on those.)As for the Wrinkle or anti-aging serum... well, that is just silly. Once again, using it exactly as directed every day, there was no change of any kind. Nada, zippo, no difference to the small and shallow wrinkle on my forehead. I took before & after photos when I started this system just to be sure.Final verdict.... Totally not worth the insane price they are asking for this kit. The tubes are tiny - think sample sizes you would get for free as "gift with purchase" at the mall from the big name cosmetics companies. My overall skin condition and appearance is no different than after a month using Oil of Olay or Estee Lauder products for the same purposes. (moisturizing, cleansing, & under-eye cream) And you know, I can spend the difference in price on cute new shoes.

Wonderful Product ~ But Pricey
This was a hard review to contemplate. I really like the products, but for the current price, there is no way I would purchase this kit. It is simply way to expensive.The clutch is neat, it keeps everything nicely together and is easy to take in a bag or purse (not a small purse). I love the mirror inside the top of the clutch, and have used it quite a few times.As for the products, they are wonderful, and I did notice that my skin felt smoother and softer while I used these products. I used them all over my face and neck.The It Kit contains:Undercover Agent Age Delay Serum (8 ml) - I really like the feel of this serum. I put it on prior to putting on the cream at night, and my skin feels really good.Rub Off Gentle Facial Exfoliator (15 ml) - I love to use this gentle exfoliator twice a week. It makes my skin so soft when combined with the facial cream.Evidence Eraser Gentle Foaming Cleanser (15 ml) - This is a gentle lathering cleanser (not really a foaming cleanser), that has no real scent and does a great job of taking makeup offBuying Time Everyday Crème (15 ml) - The package says to use this cream twice a day, but I don't like to wear creams/lotions during the day as I have combination skin and can have problems with oily skin if I put something on during the day. I do like to put it on at night and feel that my skin is softer and healthier in the morning.Eye Never Nourishing Repair Eye Crème (8 ml) - I like to use this at night, and have noticed an improvement in the dry, delicate skin under my eyes after only a few uses.In recap, while I love the individual products, I feel that the $165 price tag for samples is way too high. I would pay that for the regular sized bottles (well, maybe a little more for all 5 products), but at that price, I'll stick with my current skin care set.I gave this set 3 stars due to price alone. Otherwise, the products are wonderful and they would deserve 5 stars.

Not so sure at first, now I like this a lot
I'm a skincare junkie. I've used everything from Olay to Dr. Perricone (when he had a good sale). I'm in vBeaute's core target market of age 28 to age 60, I have dry, sensitive skin that gets drier when the furnace comes on.I've been using this 2 weeks. At first I didn't think the moisturizer would work for me; the first 5 days my face felt dry and tight. I knew as the weather got colder, the dryness would be even worse. I didn't give up as I wanted to give this set a fair trial. The weather turned colder this week; it seems the longer you use the moisturizer in this kit, the more it adapts to your skin's specific needs. I have very dry skin and as the day wears on, my face seems to become even more moisturized. I've never had a moisturizer act this way and believe me, I've used almost every skincare line there is (of the affordable lines).Julie says on her web site you can tuck the case in your luggage and it will pass through security; well, maybe if you remove the small tubes and put them in the quart Ziploc bag, but I wouldn't want to chance it putting the case into my carry-on and thinking it would be OK with TSA.Speaking of size, I have no concept of what a "ml" is, so here's the lowdown on tube size: The serum and the eye cream are 0.27 ounce each, and the other 3 items are 1/2 ounce each. Very small travel sizes, the eye cream may last 2 months, but the others, a month if you're lucky.Cute names for the items:>> Undercover Agent (the serum): This is watery, has a lot of "slip' to it, dries quickly and isn't sticky.>> Rub Off (the exfoliator): The granules are finely milled, and exfoliates without feeling it's ripping my skin.>> Evidence Eraser (the foaming cleanser): Doesn't foam much, cleans gently and even though it says to keep away from the eye area, I keep mine shut and it does a good job of removing my mascara.>> Buying Time (the moisturizer): Very thick/creamy, takes a few seconds to completely soak in, feels nice. I've grown to really like this a lot.>> Eye Never (the eye creme): I like this, absorbs fast, not sticky, I don't have dark circles so not sure how this helps those, but it does a good job on my crows feet - they have diminished around 90%.I would give this 5 stars, but I'm turned off by the high price. The ingredients are good (peptides, ceramides, etc.), I'm highly sensitive to fragrance in skincare and I didn't notice any at all, no animal testing, and the presentation box this comes in is perfect for gift-giving. The Swiss lab that makes vBeaute is the same lab that makes LaPrairie, which is super-expensive and this probably has something to do with the high cost of this line. This skincare isn't priced with the average woman in mind.
