I received a deluxe sample of this with a GWP. This has a very delicate scent, almost orange scented. Its texture is super light, a pea sized amount glides really easily across my face and neck. The deluxe sized sample is very generous with the small amount of product you need to use; mine has lasted me about 3 weeks of continuous use and has about one or two uses left (which breaks my heart!)
I have a lot of acne scaring on my chin, and would generally use rosehip oil to aid in healing. While this works fantastically, I can only really use it when my skin is not breaking out as otherwise it tends to break me out further. With Rosehip oil I can see a dramatic improvement overnight, but this is not quite as quick to show results (I noticed results within about a week). I did find that this has really helped improve the appearance of the scarring as well as the general texture of my skin. Furthermore it does so without breaking me out, and it is light enough that I can use it even with active breakouts.
If you are like me and are acne prone but have the same issues with rosehip oil breaking you out, I would highly recommend this product. The price though...wowsers, I don't ever see myself being able to purchase a full size bottle. I can appreciate that the full size bottle would last forever but $165 is simply not in my beauty budget for a single purchase. For this reason I don't think I would recommend this to many people. I have my fingers crossed that I can get another with a GWP one day!
I love this!!
I only have a deluxe sample size at the moment so I save it for when my skin feels really dry or when I have a special occasion. I know it's called Night Repair but I quite often use this as a serum before moisturizer and that works well too.
The price tag is hugeeeeee. But a little bit goes a really long way. I feel like I've said this for all my EL reviews but keep an eye out for promos at EL where they give out a gift bag, pretty sure there is always a deluxe sample of this.
I had a big chat to the lady at EL about this product and she said when used consistently for a long period of time it works miracles. She told me a story about a lady who came in and had used it since she was 20 and looked about 10 years younger than her age. I'm in my early 20s so some of my friends think I'm nuts for using this but I think this product is great for all ages!
Tips: A little goes a long way. Start with a pea size amount, you can always add more if you need it.
