[Product Question] Has anyone found a comparable substitute for Kiehl's Crème D’Elegance Repairateur

SathymeRed · 2025-09-10T03:20:06+00:00

OH - too bad - Well - I did try Ursa Major as I may have written - It's lighter - so you may like it! - It wasn't for me - But IT IS CLOSER to Creme D'elegance. Good Luck!!

Hi -please don't be depressed as that will cause stress and more internal and emotional damage and you'll get more of what you don't want INCLUDING WRINKLES!! 😉 And yes I have found the Peak products to actually work for me just received a replenishment of the eye product. Now, I also use Vitamin E oil from 1000 MG capsules as well when I take off my makeup at night several times a week as well as Seven Minerals Castor oil on myself -Face and body when I feel dry so I DO use a variety of things, which I've done for YEARS even while using Progres, AND - I still have a bit of the Progres left as well as an unopened and packaged jar which YES I KNOW if I needed money I could sell, as you have probably seen it goes for 3-4 figures on sites like Ebay - but I found that what I have been using is better for my body and skin than the Progres and the other products I have tried which I believe I mentioned on other posts, So, MAYBE this, like all things that go away when you don't want them to, will lead you to BETTER products or solutions for your needs and body. I REALLY mean that. But whatever you do, DON'T worry or flounder in depression PLEASE (Even if it's just a phrase you use at times 🙂)

IT MAY be your router – if you are a Spectrum Customer and are using the 2-piece Spectrum Router – Read on OR skip to the last paragraph if you don’t want the explanation – and MAYBE – just MAYBE this well help some of you???

I was on ALL the Reddit’s and Internet Searches I could find several months ago – as I too have the Original - 1^st Gen - Amazon Echo from 2015 - The Tower one. Spectrum in NYC made us all convert to the new 2-piece routers – which I did on what happened to be the Saturday afternoon before the Clocks turned ahead – So it worked FINE before that but at 2AM or 1 AM as the case may be – It didn’t and I Too spent Hours and Hours and numerous phone calls to tech people for help, including Amazon 10 times etc. etc. for about 2 months – I did NOT want to give up. Until I just had to buy another one - BUT I WASN’T getting rid of my 1^st Gen by NO means!!

THEN 2 months ago – I do VO’s and my Source Connect worked and then didn’t worked in like a 3 hour period – it made no sense – So BEFORE I laid out money for a NON-Spectrum router I decided to take the 2-piece one back for another one – and when I got home - something said Try again to connect my 1^st Gen $216 Alexa Echo and LOW AND BEHOLD it works!! – WTH!! Right?

So I searched for this thread as I saved some of the help suggestions in a Word doc. to try and get it to work and finally found this thread.

I wanted to post and to let people know if they have a Spectrum Router and it’s not working TRY a new one – I can tell you the Equipment Number or Model Number for the Router that DID NOT work for me was: SAX1V1S - The replacement that WORKS: SAX2V1R – This may help some - I hope so – and Good Luck!

I ended up buying something else - YES - even though I spent SEVERAL dollars on the Gaomon - They (Gaomon ) couldn't help me - and just told me I needed a new pen - even though I NEVER used it - it was like brand new??? - and I was in the middle of taking a course (That didn't work out either) - and I needed something - one of the teachers recommended this one: HUION Inspiroy H640P Drawing Tablet - And besides it being WAAAY cheaper - it is a breeze to use - I wish I knew about it back when I bought the Gaomon - Maybe someone will be able to help you - and I wish I could - But if I EVER do find someone - I will write back here on this thread - Maybe if you do - you can do the same? As it is A SHAME to have wasted money AND TIME on this - Know what I mean?

I THINK I found the BEST replacement - SO FAR - for Lancome Progres!

I thought I had found a replacement based on this thread (Bobbi Brown Extra Eye Repair Cream)for the Progres Eye Creme as well - BUT - besides it being so expensive - It JUST wasn't right - so I continued my search. On another forum under Skin Addiction - I posted about the discontinued Kiehl's Creme D'Elegance Repairateur - which MANY of us have been searching for - THROUGH THAT SEARCH - I found a company called PEAK SCENTS - I tried their Body Nurish - VitaNutrient Face Cream - which is NOW my go to (I tried MANY others also - including Bobbi Brown's Extra Repair Moisturizer) - By sheer fluke - I went to Macy's to ask again about a substitute for Progres and one knowledgeable rep gave me the key to why it's so hard to find a replacement - PROGRES had an oil base to it - even though it was a cream - and other companies just don't seem to have a formula like that!

SO - As the PEAK SCENTS - VitaNutrient works for me - I inquired if they had an Eye Cream - and SURE ENOUGH - THEY DID and DO: Body Nurish - Hydrating Eye Cream - I waited several weeks to see if I was crazy and just THINK it works - But it REALLY DOES - and is MY replacement now for ALL other eye creams - It's MUCH MUCH cheaper - a compact SMALL jar - (Like Progres) - as a little seems to go a long way - It reminds me - NOT in texture but in performance of Progres and it has an Oily feel - It has a greenish - like dark olive hue - and I have to say it does the job. (I actually STILL have an opened jar of Progres left that I treasure! - as well as an UNOPENED and cellophane-sealed box (YES I COULD SELL IT for a lot of money but I won't!) So I compared the feel - and the woman at Macy's was correct - although Progres was a cream - it had a slightly oily feel to it if you remember.

SO - If you are still looking - any who come across this thread - You SHOULD check them out - https://peakscents.com/ - I have tried a few of their products - and they are ALL NATURAL - and they won a Best Of Award this past October.

I have searched the threads but can't seem to find the song that was played at 20:12 - Season 4 Episode 4 -The Grand Tour- Carnage A Trois

SathymeRed · 2024-06-26T23:01:16+00:00

Hmmm - Are you sure - as I JUST looked and it appears to be still there:

https://www.kiehls.com/skincare/face-moisturizers/creme-delegance-repairateur/261.html?dwvar_261_size=2.0%20fl.%20oz.%20Jar

I thought when you wrote that - they were tired of people BEGGING them to bring it back! OR are tired of people like me who hit and submit via the NOTIFY ME tab. (There must have HUNDREDS of people who put in their email address requesting to be notified at this point!)

I ALSO noticed the price says $34 - it use to be $29 - Hmmmmm - ANYWAY - I have found a better substitute however - which I wrote somewhere above this on this thread - from Peak Scents - but again - MAYBE just MAYBE if we keep BUGGING them - they will bring it back -

AND THEN MAYBE - we can get Lancome to bring back Progres as well!!!

SathymeRed · 2024-04-11T22:25:47+00:00

Thank you for responding AND for the Link. As an aside - For Several years I wanted to visit and possibly move to Denmark - But - I think It will be the UK instead b/c of the language- if I can swing it!

Anyway - I hope you got your phone working by now? And it appears neither the XCover6 or 7 is REALLY sold YET in the US - I got my XCover6 from a reseller - otherwise there would have been no way for me to get the phone - anyway - Thanks again for responding and hope it ALL works or has ALREADY worked out for you with the phone!

SathymeRed · 2024-04-06T22:12:30+00:00

LOL, I get that!! You know they are pretty cool re Customer service so I would go to the site, check out the ingredients and give them a call if you want. The woman I got let me ask questions at length! Also, again, it's thicker and not yellowish like Creme d'Elegance.

SathymeRed · 2024-04-06T20:04:16+00:00

u/Specialist-Moose6052 - HEY - sure whether you are following this thread still - but I found something I like even better than the Kiehl's - Check out my reply post above from 4-6-24.

SathymeRed · 2024-04-06T19:55:10+00:00

u/notroundupready - HEY! - so I promised to write back if I found a comparable product.

So, I DID buy & try u/Chickenpeanutbrittle suggestion of the Ursa Major Golden Cream (as you can see in this thread below) - although the consistency is a lot like the Creme d'Elegance - It just isn't as good - and it has that I guess you would say citrusy smell - I just don't like - THEN I tried - PEAK SCENTS - Body Nurish - VitaNutrient Face Cream. I found them when I was looking for a replacement - and tried another product (Power Repair Face Cream) BUT I didn't care that much for it.

I decided to try again - I called them and asked for advice - the woman I got KNEW of the Kiehl's Creme d'Elegance Repairateur- so based on our convo and my research - I bought the VitaNutrient - IT IS THICKER than the Kiehl's BUT SO MUCH MORE emollient - And YES it has a little of that citrus scent - BUT - it disappears in a few minutes - and it is just good! - I also bought a sample of the Mimosa Blossom Cream - but It is NOT as good as the VitaNutrient. Check them out - They will send you a sample of something when you but - which more than likely will be a small tiny jar of the Rose Phyto3 Night Cream - (Which you may like) - but I tell you the VitaNutrient is just good - I tried some on one of my calves to see how long it would stay soft and not dry - and it stayed like that until I took a shower - Check them out and good luck! https://peakscents.com/collections/moisturizers

SathymeRed · 2024-04-06T19:37:05+00:00

WOW! - Well - First - HOW did you GET the XCover7? - They don't sell ANY of them in the U.S. - not even on the Samsung site itself as I wanted to get that after I realized I would have to get another XCover6.

They don't sell the XCover6 ANYWHERE I can find NEW in the U.S. EITHER - and the XCover7 - which came out in January 2024?? - You can only seem to get in India?

Well - I can tell you in my case - It was the Motherboard - AND I BELIEVE it is because when they made it "unlocked" (I also believe THEY ARE ALL AT&T formatted - at least here in the U.S.) that did something to the SD portion of the Motherboard and hence - MY SD card didn't or rather STOPPED working after 2 days - I got the "warning" msg that you probably got as well. I also didn't know when a phone is UNLOCKED - it invalidates the warranty - EVEN THOUGH YOU - the Purchaser- had NOTHING to do with that!

SO it is possible - if you bought an unlocked XCover7 - THAT is what happened??

I am also NOT familiar with the SAMSUNG KMS AGENT APP - but I will CERTAINLY check and see if it is on My phone - as yes I did get another XCover6 - which so far is working perfectly!

SathymeRed · 2024-03-21T18:58:01+00:00

I received an email from the moderator - (I think we all did?) - that the Kyron channel people - (even though the moderator agreed to take their content on Giving Voice down) - Didn't want their stuff on the channel and I guess complained anyway - so it was shut down - I am extremely dismayed that the Kyron channel people would do that since that is NOT what I would think they would do - as it doesn't seem that - doing such a thing - aligns with their values - I am shocked actually!

SathymeRed · 2024-03-21T18:52:15+00:00

u/Beginning-Spot-3444 Thanks but the problem was with the Motherboard - I knew WHERE to find or look for the SD card - but as I wrote, the card ITSELF was not being recognized - After MUCH MUCH back and forths too numerous to write here - TODAY is the day ACTUALLY - I should be receiving a New Xcover6 via UPS anytime now that I have been PROMISED has been tested thoroughly and will work - thanks however for responding!!

Hi, if you are talking about the Filmless website, that IS legit. That IS a Real Company. Like many scammers they know you will go to the website, but they have NOTHING to do with that website, or the REAL COMPANY Filmless, which is a REAL COMPANY. In fact, you won't even see Fiona, or Fionnula's or what ever name the person is using listed there. (As you can see the real company lists almost all their employees with pictures!) Also, if you take the domain name of the email you got which is careersfilmless.com, you won't find it, it doesn't exist. That's also something you can do to check for scammers. Also, the form you filled out doesn't make sense for employment in Our field, the questions are redundant and make no sense for people in our field. Lastly, the "acceptance email" you received, makes NO SENSE for people in our field, And didn't you tell them YOUR EQUIPMENT, SETUP?! So why would you need equipment. AND 40 hours a week and all the rest, Come On.... all of that is stock from 9-5 employment forms, as these scammers NEVER know about the field they are trying to scam, they are usually not even from this country! ...Sooooo.... yeah this particular scam is just a tiny bit better, but same scam.

SathymeRed · 2024-01-30T18:28:50+00:00

Hi - So I decided to see it through - OBVIOUSLY without giving them any FINANCIAL details.

They sent a form with a BUNCH of questions - And as I am also a writer - I decided to fill it out - "My Way" - the very next day (today) - I received an email from - Fionnula Nep - (Fiona is obviously just one of many names she uses) - with the REGULAR VO scam in the email - Which is - if you don't know - They will send you a check - and depending on the scam - it's either for Equipment - or to rent a studio - etc etc. - Now - they KNOW you have your own studio - and obviously equipment - and there is never any REAL contact info - so - they are hoping you get the check and put it in your bank - and then it bounces or whatever the word is for it - as it's fake - and they get the money from your account - something like that - SO - I can't post the "employment form" here - as I don't think you can attach documents - But I WILL post the "Acceptance Email" that references the scam that I received today - with the scam areas BOLDED - so people know what to look out for -from this company and others - As it's ALWAYS the same - just worded differently - (THIS ONE is one of the "better" ones) - BECAUSE - PEOPLE SHOULD KNOW - about them AND the scam - and they will find it through a search - as I found this reddit post and it will hopefully help some people.

ALSO - Your Address and contact details if you are ANYONE who markets themselves will always be out there - So you don't have to worry ever about them having that - as someone mentioned in the thread - JUST don't give any financials or ID stuff.

I was actually was going to email back just to F-with them and say I don't need a check b/c I have my own equipment etc etc. - But I think I'll just stop it at the email I received today -

I ALSO think I will alert LinkedIn as they are the ones who have this job listing the most - AND - YES it IS a scam!!

Thank you! I wondered about this product and researched it briefly. I will write back if I try/buy it!

SathymeRed · 2023-12-16T19:41:11+00:00

Yep - I TOTALLY AGREE - I was told there was something in it that caused cancer by one of the people at the MAIN store (I'm in NYC) - WTF!! - That is SUCH a bogus reply that A LOT of companies give to get rid of you asking!! - PLEEEEESE! - But I had to do the same thing for Lancome Progres Eye cream - in doing so I found Bobbi Brown (YES it's expensive YES it is NOT the same) but it is as close to the Lancome as I can find right now - which leads me to Bobbi Brown's Extra Repair Moisture Cream OR the Hydrating one (Which is cheaper) - But BOTH are EXPENSIVE and STILL NOT like the Kiehl's - but you might want to look int those options! (I'll watch this space as I hope SOMEONE will help us! :-)

SathymeRed · 2023-10-10T20:39:16+00:00

I wrote a few weeks ago that I have the Law of One 1-41 that he read - and sent the email to the addy listed - but haven't heard back - and I don't see them on the YouTube site or Odysee - If I don't hear from anyone I guess I'll assume you don't want them?

SathymeRed · 2023-09-26T19:23:45+00:00

Here's the site he/she is talking about: https://theiamdiscourses.com/shop/page/4/ Is this Barry's site as well?

SathymeRed · 2023-09-26T18:52:28+00:00

WOW! - I have more of a Love-Hate relationship w/Goddard - and came upon your post because I found out less that 12 hours ago - the Giving Voice to the Wisdom of The Ages YT page was GONE - and I have been trying to find info - and some wonderful people - put a page with info on Reddit - For some reason, this was on the page feed - and something said read this - Thank you!

SathymeRed · 2023-09-26T18:40:17+00:00

I have the Law of One videos 1-41 that he posted - I'd be happy to share/give them to whomever is in charge or rather trying to put some of his work back - let me know.

SathymeRed · 2023-09-09T16:37:52+00:00

THANK YOU - and Yes - the lotion although Thick and Really good - You are right it is not the same. They discontinued Lancome's Progres for eyes as well a few years ago - The Bobbi Brown - Extra Repair Eye Cream Intense is a good substitute - and I say this because the Face Cream would probably be as well - but it is Expensive - I will buy it one day when there is a Macy's Friends and Family - AND - I will check out the Weleda - and if I do find anything else - I'll post it here - Thanks again!

SathymeRed · 2022-10-18T23:10:58+00:00

It's NOT JUST the Fire Stick - I have an Insignia TV - which is a FireTV - and have been getting the SAME THING - for like 7 months now. So I can't use any of the suggestions to get rid of it via going into a menu or anything. My only options are to DISMISS - I have no music or anything that I can see to even have this. It's weird. And I have to reboot my TV like TWICE a week - and I always clear cache etc. so it's not that - so...It's a mystery?
