It is worth it!

I wrote a review last year about how pricey this skincare is. While I do think it is a bit pricey, I think it is more than worth the money. I don't think you need to do the monthly subscription either - the bottles last more than one month! This has done wonders for my skin & I couldn't be happier with my routine now.
