L'Oreal Paris Age Perfect Golden Age Rosy Redensifying Day Cream Review

Approaching my mid eighties I was delighted to be included in this trial team for this day cream - and appreciative of the fact that the packaging notes the target age group as 60/70/80 rather than just "mature skin" or "65+" - so I felt confident that I could benefit from it's use. The subtle perfume and the pretty pink cream were immediately attractive and, although the cream appeared to be a little thick, just a small amount gave great coverage and worked in very quickly leaving no sticky feeling, just nice soft skin. I was a little sceptical re the rosy glow claim but a quick test - half my face with this cream and the other half with a favourite natural white cream - certainly showed me that it does, indeed, impart a gentle rosy effect. Unfortunately, shortly after starting this trial I was in hospital for several days following a heart attack - and skin care was far from my concern just then. When I got home I noticed how dry the warmth and general hospital atmosphere had made my skin so I quickly started using this cream again.and within just a couple of days normal softness returned and, in fact I got many comments from friends and family as to how surprised they were just how well I was looking (even when I was not wearing any makeup) - a huge psychological boost during the long slow recovery period.

I was so pleased to review the L’Oreal golden age day cream, I am a big fan of L’Oreal as in my experience their product is of high quality and my sensitive skin hasn’t reacted to any of their skin range. I use L’Oreal in general more than any other skin cream due to my trust from previous experience with this brand. And as I read their label they have been researching for more than 30 years on their formulas. This cream is a little different in the fact that is has a rose gold colour to it, I was a little concerned as I have sensitive skin which also is quite red due to broken capillaries that I would have even more of a red hue to my skin, so adding more colour seemed quite foreign. After a few days I was relieved to find I didn’t look more red and under make up my skin looked pretty good, with a healthy glow! A good time to trial as I felt like what my skin would be in summer ‘kind of a sun kissed glow’. Easy to identify this cream as all the packaging is in rose gold. This cream is marked for a very mature skin, I’m over 50 but not yet in the 60 age mark they recommend for this product and it suits my skin perfectly so from this a won’t ever be concerned to use a L’Oreal product above my age. I really believe this cream has been beneficial to the condition of my skin, it has felt nourished in this cold part of the year. I would totally recommend if you have dull skin that could be with a boast along with all the benefits of a quality moisturiser.

I was quite surprised to receive an invite for this trial as the product seems to target VERY MATURE skin - and at 50 years old, I don't think I am ticking that box yet.....hopefully. But on reading the box, ages 30-50 can get benefit of re-densifying the skin as well as the rosy glow activated by the flower extracts (Imperial Peony and Iris) and Neo-Calcium. It is also recommended that you apply after using the serum from the same range, but this was not provided for this review. As a day cream, I think sun protection should always be a factor in proactively avoiding sun damage, but this sample product has no SPF rating. L'Oreal Paris Age Perfect Golden Age Rosy Re-densifying Day Cream is thick and luxurious to the touch with a very light pleasant fragrance. There is a surprising amount in the 50 ml pot but you really don't need to use much, as a little goes a long way. I have used this every day day of the trial and have found that it absorbs quickly and makes a nice base to a foundation. Overall my skin is more hydrated and plumper with a better look to my face all day. Being winter time, I cannot comment on whether it will make my skin greasy in summer though. A couple of super dry spots have certainly benefited and by also applying over the lip area, I have avoided dry lip cracking over these winter months, which I struggle with. I can't really say my skin has more of a rosy glow though. I am undecided if the rosy colour of the cream is a gimmick or the ingredients really promote a more youthful colour. I do notice a sparkly glimmer on my skin however. Take care when applying around the neck area as I did notice that getting the cream on your clothes does cause light staining. I love L'Oreal for their on-going product development and innovation. Also, that their products are available at the supermarket, for each of shopping, and they are reasonably priced.

I'm not even going to start typing the name of this cream, it's incredibly long! L'Oreal Rosy Day Cream is a lovely daytime moisturiser, I think it contains silicone so it feels lovely and is a great base for foundation.

I've tried the SPF15 version of this cream and really liked it, so I was delighted to have the opportunity to trial this version. I think I like the non-SPF version the most, it has such a nice texture and makes my skin feel very smooth (that'll be the silicone...)

It does have a light pink tint, I think it's lighter than the SPF version. Apparently that time makes the skin look brighter and healthier, though I didn't really notice much effect. Fortunately it doesn't make my face any pinker than it already is.

The packaging is a lovely heft square rose gold glass jar, it looks really luxe especially with the matching night cream and the mini eye cream jar.

I loved this product. Although the packaging and container shape is similar to the Golden Age Eye Cream I found it easier to get out of the packaging as the filler cardboard was at the top of the product with no gel glue. I liked the square shape of the product container as this makes it easy to unscrew the lid with arthritic fingers. I'm not fond of heavily fragranced face creams and although there was a light fragrance smell when I opened the product I didn't find it overpowering and it wasn't offensive when I applied the product to my face. The product was easy to apply and instantly my skin felt plumper and hydrated, and appeared more radiant, evening out my skin tones with a light glow. I applied the product in the morning and I liked that the results seemed to last into the early evening. I used this product in conjunction with the Age Perfect Golden Age Eye Cream and thought that these two products together were quick and easy to apply in the morning (my day is usually rushed) and I was impressed that I felt and looked great all day with my skin not appearing dry at all and my eyes fresh as a daisy until bedtime.

Packaging looks great and is able to be recycled, which is a huge plus. The jar is easy to open and looks good. I loved this cream, it made my face feel revitalised. I did not need to use a large amount, so the jar will last a very long time. I certainly felt that I looked younger, although some may say that is debatable :)

I was excited to be picked to review this product that is for the more mature woman aged 60+, even tho I am early 50's. I love L'Oreal products and once again they have come up with classy attractive packaging. This product has a lovely fragrance and a delightful pink pigmentation that gives the skin a radiant hue when applied. It glides on easily and absorbs nicely into the skin without leaving any greasy residue. It doesn't contain any spf which I do prefer as it just means another step to add into my daily skincare regime, however its not a major issue. At RRP of $39.99, I think it is well worth the money for a quality product that you don't need to use a huge amount of and it should last a fair while. After 2 weeks of using a green pea sized amount of product, I had used very little out of my jar
