Smooth, and effective with a sublime scent.

I've been using Darphin since I was in my early 30's (I'm now in my 70's). Occasionally I've tried other products (I.e. La Prairie, Le Mer, etc…) to compare and for a change but, I always end up going back to Darphin. I started with a less costly Darphin line and eventually graduated to the Stimulskin Plus line which has been by far the most effective line in preventing signs of aging and for maintaining mature skin. I was so pleasantly surprised when Shoppers Drug Mart started carrying this brand. When I started using Darphin, it was only available at Holt Renfrew and a very few high end spas and comparing SDM prices now to the prices then, it really hasn't change that much especially, if you take advantage of the Optimum bonus program. Of course every skin is different and every budget is different. But if you can manage it, it's worth it and you owe it to yourself to at least try it. The compliments I've received over the years on my skin, has made me a true believer in Darphin, particularly Stimulskin.

This cream is worth every penny. If you are looking for a facelift in a jar-this is it! I love everything about it-the smell, the creaminess, and how little you really need to the fact that it really does work and diminishes the lines and makes your skin luminous and glowing. Not like many other Darphin products that smell wonderful but do not work-this one really does!

I have very sensitive skin, and have problems wearing a lot of skin care products. This lotion went on smoothly, mt skin felt hydrated, and I did not experience any sensitivity!

I wasn't sure how I was going to like this sample because I thought it had an offensive smell. I didn't really feel that it made a dramatic difference. I only had a sample that lasted about 2 weeks with 1x a day use. Maybe if I had continued I would see more of a difference.

My super sensitive skin didn't like something in this - perhaps the fruity fragrance? Or whatever ingredient is in this that gives it a melting effect? I broke out with cystic bumps on my upper forehead, around my mouth and under my jawline. I gave myself a week off, then tried it again. Same result - after two days, angry red sore bumps. I threw it away. Knowing the brand, there is no way I could refer someone to this product given my results and the cost of this.

Had this as a large sample and have to say I've fallen in love with it. I used it after the Darphin Vetiver oil and it was incredible. Lines have softened immediately, even my elevens lines. Smells beautiful - soft, delicate floral fragrance and melts into skin like butter. I have deducted one star as it is very expensive but that hasn't stopped me buying creams in the past. I will have a think about this one!

Incredible texture! Worked within a couple of uses. Completely worth it. A must add on to a regular routine.

I really like this cream. First, the smell of it is amazing! Not too strong and overpowering. The texture of the cream is very light. It does not make my skin feel oily or heavy. It absorbs very quickly into my skin. My skin feels very soft the next morning.

When I initially received this product to review I was shocked at how small the 5ml container was and assumed it would only last a few days. It doesn't happen often, but I was wrong! Just a little goes a long way. The cream is light and smooth, without any overpowering scent. It does not feel heavy or cakey on your skin. I do have large pores and some light wrinkles on my face. After only a short while, I feel this cream helped to noticeably smooth out my skin. I can't wait to see what it can do with prolonged use! I really wish I had gotten before/after photos!
