I’ve been using the L’Oreal Paris Revitalift Filler regime now for around 8-9 days and it’s been an absolute pleasure to try out.
The gorgeous packaging, the pampering feeling of applying the actual products and then the wonderful results for my skin have all been pretty much beyond my expectations!
Firstly, these products all come packaged in gorgeous, metallic pinky-purple boxes; this range definitely has a very attractive colour scheme going on - it’s pretty and feminine. I LOVE the use of the metallic colours in this skincare range, they seem to yell out ‘I’m vibrant and effective so please use me’!
The standout products for me in this range are the incredible eye cream and the night cream. The eye cream visibly helps to reduce the appearance of skin imperfections around the undereye area, such as bags, wrinkles and dark circles. It’s very soothing and cooling to use and it provides immediate positive results. My undereye area is usually a problem area for me, but this cream helps to improve how the skin looks under my eyes quite visibly, so I’m very happy with the results! As for the night cream, it provides a real sense of pampering and luxury at the end of a long day and revitalises my skin while I sleep. My skin definitely feels plumper, more hydrated and firmer with use.
The serum and day cream are both very good products too in terms of plumping, hydrating and firming the skin. The only slight negative (if I had to pick one) is that the texture of the day cream is slightly thicker than I’m used to in a moisturiser. So I believe it’s essential to use the serum beforehand as it definitely helps to then massage the rich day cream in more easily. But as L’Oréal recommend applying the serum prior to the day cream anyway, this is no biggie.
Overall, I’m very impressed by how this whole regime is able to fight the signs of aging by plumping, hydrating and firming the skin. The products all seem to compliment each other in that regard - they all seem to boost the efficacy of one another. So I believe the whole regime is an excellent, anti-aging skincare range as the products all work well together. If I had to choose just one product though as the overall winner in this bunch, I’d have to say the eye cream is an absolute winner for targeting problem undereye skin concerns and achieving visible improvements straight away.
I’m now a total believer also in the power of hyaluronic acid in skincare products to help fight the aging process by putting volume back into the skin. I hadn’t even heard of hyaluronic acid before trying out these Loreal Paris products, but now I know what it can actually achieve in skincare, I’m totally sold on the stuff. It seems to be a crucial aid in keeping the skin looking its best.
I give this visibly effective skincare regime five kisses overall. Mwah!
I was lucky enough to be sent this whole range as part of a BR trial. I have just turned 40 and have quite dry skin with fine lines around the eyes, so was really excited to see how this might help replump and replenish my skin.
The range has the day cream, eye cream, serum and night cream. The packaging is true to L’Oréal’s high standards and comes with the right amount of information and instructions on how to use.
The day cream is a gorgeous, light cream that absorbs easily into the skin. There’s no huge waiting around time to apply your makeup, and it doesn’t ever get greasy during the day. It has a nice light scent, wasn’t irritating and only a small amount is needed. It doesn’t contain an SPF, so make sure you apply sunscreen as well if you use this range.
The eyecream has very cool packaging with a rounded metal applicator tip that helps spread the eyecream across the delicate eye area with no pulling or tugging, and has a gorgeous cooling sensation that helps wake up the eyes in the morning.
The serum is a really really light product and absorbs super easy into the skin. So much so, that I ran out way too early in the trial. I guess over time with my skin being more moisturised and nourished, the serum may go further and will last longer (or it may be that I was too enthusiastic/impatient and wanted the fine lines gone!!).
The night cream was by far my favourite. While I couldn’t find anything on the packaging that told me what galanga does for the skin, I’m assuming it’s responsible for the beautiful calming lavender colour – just perfect for bedtime routines! This cream has the most amazing silky texture and absorbs into the skin without leaving any greasy residue or heavy feeling.
Overall I was really impressed with the range. It has plumped my skin, leaving it looking more nourished and cared for, and has helped with reducing those tired, end of a long day, fine lines appearing.
Tips: As with all L’Oréal products, you can often get them on special at the supermarkets so make sure to pop these in your trolley next time you're shopping
