Santa's Little Helper

This product definitely does what it says it will. Over 4 weeks I noticed a distinct improvement in some of the finer lines around my eyes and my skin feels softer. Its quite a light product that absorbs quickly into your skin. One of my issues with most moisturisers is after 2 hours or so my skin starts to feel dry. Not with this, easy to apply, easily absorbed and keeps my skin hydrated. I will certainly be purchasing as my ongoing moisturiser. Tough time of year to test a moisturiser - lots of Christmas parties, late nights and not drinking enough water. It held up admirably!

Tips: A light sun screen over the top worked well for the outdoor Christmas activity.

Very hydrating

I was extremely lucky to get a chance to review this product, and I love it! It goes on the skin well and absorbs nicely. I found this to be very hydrating and my makeup went over the top well. The only thing I didn’t like was the scent I don’t like face creams with scents but that’s only my opinion and it wasn’t a strong scent.

Tips: For the price this is a good product that does what it says it will.

Ambitious Expectations

L'Oreal Paris Wrinkle Expert day cream promises a lot....... to improve skin smoothness and firmness. Visibly reduces signs of aging including wrinkles, loss of firmness, and dryness. I have normal to dry skin and I'm 52. I was keen to trial this product as I don't normally use a day cream. After trialing this for an extended period I remembered why. I'm not sure why but day creams seem to make my skin very oily and sit on the surface rather than sinking in. This cream was no different. I found it difficult to penetrate into the skin. it left a film on my face so that when I put on makeup it smeared the whole effect. An hour later the cream rubbed off in moist flakes. I persevered for a couple of weeks but didn't seem to be able to find a way to overcome this. As a result of these initial difficulties I did not find any perceivable changes to my skin. I am eager to read other reviews to see if any other users have this problem. At this stage I will stick with my night cream

Gentle Hydrating Day Cream

This luscious hydrating day cream has my skin looking and feeling soft, smooth & silky...And, in my opinion the texture of my face does look and feel firmer, plumper and has a more youthful glow. The fine lines that are beginning to develop around my mouth not being so obvious is a great plus for me! The packaging is no frills and the pot size is excellant value for money, as a very small amount of the cream goes a very long way. The gentle fresh scent is perfect for my sensitive skin (and nose as I have a real dislike for strongly scented products).This luxurious day cream melts into and onto my tired, thirsty skin leaving me looking and feeling hydrated, refreshed and ready for the day. If I was going out and wearing makeup I would wait for the cream to be fully absorbed before applying as it is quite rich. I will most definitely purchase this product and recommend to anyone looking for gentle intensive moisture.

Tips: Don't forget your regular facial sunscreen as there's no SPF Keep hands scrupulously clean, wash before using to avoid possible introduction of bacteria in to the pot. When using intensive facial serums and moisturisers etc never waste any product left over massage this into hands and onto your chest to help these areas age gracefully as well. x

Impressive

I have long been a 'product snob' and am always keen to try new things to preserve my skin especially having hit the 50; so I jumped at the chance to try a 'mystery product'. I must now hang my head in shame as I have trialed a product that I love, which is neither hideously priced nor salon only. Twice a day I cleanse, tone serum and moisturize.Sunscreen, a must, in the morning. The only step I replaced was with this day cream and I did indeed see a difference, in my skin, over the weeks I used it. It was easily absorbed and my skin felt hydrated with a really nice glow. There was a definite improvement in smoothness. The fragrance was pleasant but not overpowering. I'm not entirely sure whether there was an improvement in firmness and I wish I had taken before and after photos to give a definitive answer. I will definitely be re purchasing and have already recommended this to a friend of a similar vintage.

Tips: Do not judge a product by its price tag or brand. Luxury is not the definitive best.

Yay for L'Oreal ! What a Treat !

I am love, love, loving this cream and I can't wait to buy it once I've finished this pot.

Welcome to my life: L'Oreal Wrinkle Expert Day Cream!!

The pot states its an anti-wrinkle firming day cream for 45+ year olds containing Retino-Peptides. I've found it to be a cream that feels like satin, glides on easily, and absorbs completely into the skin with no greasy residue. Just what this mature skin needs !!!! Thank you to all you little Retino-Peptides!

Have I noticed less wrinkles? Well maybe the wrinkles are still there, but yes they have definitely softened and I have noticed the look and feel of my skin has improved. My skin feels softer to the touch and most importantly for me, it is so much more moisturised.

Even though this is a day cream, I have been using it both morning and night (never been one to follow rules), and after 3 weeks, I have used a little over half the 50ml pot, so I probably have enough left for another 3 weeks. I do tend to slather moisturiser all over my face and neck though, so it does get good usage, probably more than most, but my skin does tend on the dry side.....well it did !! The most telling thing for me whenever I try a new moisturiser, is how my face feels in the morning after sleep, and I can honestly say my face feels completely plumped and moisturised in the mornings now which is amazing. I am able to use less now as the trial has progressed as my skin has improved its condition. I know my next pot will last me a lot longer!

I have to admit I've never really been a user of L'Oreal skincare products, but I am now converted. I can't believe this moisturiser, which has noticeably started to improve the condition and look of my skin, will be retailing at $19.99. I'm seriously hooked now. I totally recommend this cream for anyone with mature skin.

Tips: No tips needed on this one....just use and enjoy!

A cream that works and is great value

My skin is dry and sensitive but this cream felt wonderful on. My skin felt moisturised throughout the day without feeling heavy and my skin felt firmer. Although I don't have a huge amount of lines, those I do have appeared less noticeable. The smell isn't overpowering. I will be using more of this product

Tips: A little goes a long way. I tend to use more in the evening and then apply it more thinly in the mornings

A great product, NEW to the market!

Having just turned 45 I think this product was tailor made for me. It claims to 1. Smooth Wrinkles; 2. Improve Firmness; and 3. Hydrate for 24 hours.

On first opening of the glass tub, I noticed that this had quite a strong, but pleasant fragrance that I found refreshing. It does not contain SPF.

The cream itself wasn't as heavy as I was expecting - it was lighter - but it was still rich and smooth to apply. It definitely felt like it was adding hydration to my skin and I can confirm that the hydration lasted for a whole day. My makeup was smooth to apply over the top of it and over time I felt that the cream helped to improve the texture of my skin.

In this way it also smoothed some fine lines and I think this is due to the inclusion of Retino-Peptides. Given the quality of the product, I'm excited that this will be available and accessible to all.

Overall I was really impressed with this product. Because it didn't have SPF, I applied an SPF over it during the day - one that I have used regularly so that I was sure of the results - and it performed really well.

Because it is a trusted brand, I know that the claims and research supporting them are robust.

Tips: Because it doesn't have SPF, you can use this as a night cream too! I did and was really happy with the results. The only drawback is that you go through the tub faster!

Wrinkle Expert by L'Oréal Paris - Hydrates 100%

I am shy of 50 and have sensitive dry skin in the Summer time. I am trying as much as possible to take good care of my skin by having a good hygiene, a good diet, and by using products that suit me. I have been using the new Wrinkle Expert 45+ by l'Oréal Paris for a few weeks. The cream contains some retino-peptides, which are a powerful complex of Pro Retinol A and peptides. I am convinced. The results are as good as the cream I am currently using and costs 4 times less. The consistency of the cream is good, not too fluid or too thick. It is easy to get the right amount on my finger in one go. I personally use a full teaspoon of cream to cover my face and neck. It penetrates quickly and leaves my skin fresh and radiant. I can easily apply my foundation cream soon after or just leave my skin as is. The best outcome for me is that the cream hydrates my skin for 24 hours. I can see that the elasticity of my skin has improved. I tested the cream while biking and hiking. It did the job and the cream didn't run down my cheeks. The cream is lightly scented. The smell lasts only a few minutes. Using the cream daily, I estimate that the 50 ml pot will last me 2 months. The packaging is simple. The giftbox has a PAP recycling logo, the pot is made of glass. I am not sure however if the lid can be recycled. I would definitely recommend Wrinkle Expert 45+ to my friends. It definitely hydrates my skin and keeps it soft and supple.

Tips: Apply in small circular motions, that way you give yourself a nice face massage :-)

Has Potential

I was really excited to be selected for this trial and the product I received was from a brand that I'm really familiar with - not sure if we're allowed to name it yet. The day cream is very light and definitely non-greasy which is fantastic. The one down side is that it doesn't appear to include an SPF which is pretty important in our environment and something I do tend to look for in a day cream. Having said that, it really doesn't take a lot of effort to add sunscreen into your beauty routine. I think it is something the company should look at including, however, even if they have it as an option to choose from.

After using the day cream for a couple of weeks, my skin definitely felt less dry - it had been at the Sahara stage so, if this cream was going to work I would notice a difference, and I did. I love that it's such a light consistency and has a lovely fragrance. There was a noticeable difference in the texture and condition of the skin on my neck too - always a bonus if you've entered the 'older' age group that this day cream targets.

I would love to buy this when it's released but would really love the option of a day cream with a built in SPF. Overall, I think it does live up to the high standards of the products that this company is so well-known for.
