I was super surprised to be picked to go on this trial but super excited at the same time. Upon receiving the cream I was a bit gobsmacked that it was aimed at 40 years old plus but here I am at only 35. Nonetheless I dove in face first to give it a go and to see if it could help my slightly aging skin out.
The box is a ruby red which is very eye catching which makes me want to stand up and take notice of it. I read the instructions first which advise to cleanse before use every morning and use afterwards for best results. After seeing the tv commercial for this I was even more on board because the comparison between the cream and the beauty clinic treatment were almost the same.
The jar is red as well with a black twist top lid. It has a white safety lid inside to prevent leaks. The cream smells very fragrant. It reminds me of my nana's face creams and lotions. It isn't a smell I love that's for sure. It is very strong for my taste. The cream is thick and velvety which I do like.
I cleanse my face in the morning and apply the cream afterwards using small circular motions like it advises on the instructions. After applying it gives my face a very greasy just worked out look. It's not one I like. I do like the fact that it is SPF15 which teams nicely with my sunscreen to protect my face even more.
I have repeated this for the past two weeks religiously. I have found that my skin drinks it in gratefully and always feels so smooth and plump after each use. Once I get past the initial greasy look it's great. I do notice that my smile lines around my eyes have become less prominent which has been a bit of a confidence boost. My skin is alot more hydrated and soft to the touch. I also notice that I don't have the dry patches in my t-zone anymore. I think to summarize, I would definitely buy it again because it is a price I can live with and it's a well known and trusted brand. It has improved my skin tone and smile lines a bit. If this can happen in two weeks, I am only too excited to find out what it will be like in a couple of months. Time will definitely tell.
I was lucky enough to get on another trial for amazing L'Oreal products, this was one i wanted to try with all the ingredients in it, unfortunately for me it did cause a few little spots but the texture and overall appearance is amazing, the skin looked amazing, was just such a shame it was a bit to strong or something didn't suit my skin, and that is ok, as part of skincare, i defiantly love L'Oreal products, and this was so nice to try, and wont stop me trying the rest of the range.
Thank you again
Tips: would test patch for some
