I have dry skin and sensitive from psoriasis but my pores are getting bigger and open. Would this be good for me? I fancy giving it a go! X

Well, if I am right the price for the 200ml Liquid Gold was £37 when it was the Product of the Month last year, so I doubt the price for the whole Set will be under £40.
Anyway, I had a trial size of the cleanser and really liked it, the Liquid Gold is great even for my sensitive skin, it's just the eye complex I don't know so I might be give this upcoming TSV a go.
you can try the liquid gold by patch testing and diluting it on a damp cotton wool. it does tingle but goes in a couple of minutes. the cleansers are really gentle and work well with the liquid gold. my all time favourite is the rejuvinating cream. which i use every single day and have little or no need for the liquid gold now. i use it when my skin needs a boost.i like this range are there is little need for loads of different stuff its that effective. i use a mask rarely once a month and very rarely need a srub so effective is the rejuvinating cream and the liquid gold.
I was just about to add this, but you beat me too it. lol!
I use the Absolute Eye Complex, as AY recommended it, but I've never used either of other two from the TSV.
What exactly is Liquid Gold? And is the Balancing Cleanser a toner as well as a face wash / make up remover?
When I needed eye cream I couldn't find it on QVC's website, so I ordered one from Ebay. It was £15.

Re
soriasis, you could certainly use the AHA free products like the cleansers, but I would be very careful with the AHA products like Liquid Gold. You could email Alpha H for advice (they are helpful and are honest if they don't think something is ok for you).In terms of sensitivity, I use the whole range including AHA products and have sensitive skin and they cause me no problems at all, if anything they have improved my sensitivity!

Has anyone tried the Alpha H Balancing and Pore Refining Mask?
Is this the same as the Liquid Gold clay mask or this is a new product?

I use it. It's a white clay mask, it says it's suitable for all skin types but I'd say it's more for your typical combination/oily skin to reduce congestion, stop a small spot turning into a mountain, etc! I alternate it weekly with the Liquid Gold mask :happy:
Liquid Gold is a liquid exfoliator with a difference. It's a watery texture that you put onto a cotton wool pad and swipe it over your skin at night after cleansing. You don't need to put a moisturiser over the top, as you would do after a "normal" liquid exfoliator. So it's an exfoliator and moisturiser combined, if you like.
The balancing cleanser is indeed a cleanser and toner, and will remove your make up.
Alpha H is a pretty economical "premium" brand really, as you don't need so many separate products for a basic regime.
Thank you Ellaaa, how do you compare the two? Is one better than the other?
I've got the LGold Mask and I find that it leaves residue on the skin, not very keen on the fact.

This is another range were the single items have shot up in price from when it first came to Q.
It's difficult to say, I think both have their different qualities and I think both are as good as each other. LGold mask is slightly more moisturising and more like a peel. The balancing mask doesn't contain AHA's so it's a "traditional" deep cleansing mask. For me the LGold mask doesn't leave my skin "clear" the next morning as it seems to "draw out" spots and it's a couple of days before you see the wonder it has worked, whereas with the balancing mask any blemishes I have are reduced the morning after. Sometimes I use one after the other on the same night and they work an absolute treat (I wish I could do that every week but one has to try and prolong the life of things that aren't cheap! :wink
Hmm I'm not sure that was much help?! They really are both as good as each other, but in different ways. If you have combo/oily skin then the balancing mask is worth a go, I think it would be too drying for dry skin.
I use a muslin cloth or foam sponges to remove the LGold mask, that might help reduce that feeling of residue on your skin? The balancing mask is "heavy" clay and definitely needs removing with a cloth or sponges.

I think that it happened when they changed the packaging. They used to make a big deal about simple packaging that gives us affordable prices and I loved the fact. I do prefer the new packaging but given the choice I would go for the cheaper packaging as I'm after the product mostly.
I found some videos of Michelle and Tom on YouTube
