This is an interesting product. I have been impressed with products containing hyaluronic acid before so was keen to try this one.
It comes in a 30 ml glass dropper bottle. 30ml seems quite big for a product of this type. The product drops nicely and neatly from the dropper.
The product itself is clear and gel-like as it drops onto my skin. It absorbs quickly and easily. The scent is very pleasant. Once the product has absorbed, my skin feels soft and looks smooth. It makes a fabulous base for my moisturiser.
I've been using a few drops twice daily as per the directions, for a couple of weeks now. The blurb says immediately skin is deeply hydrated and feels more plump, supple and smooth, which I agree with. Then it says in one week skin regains its bounce and feels firmer and more toned. I haven't seen this yet but my skin does look a little smoother. It also says progressive wrinkle reduction will happen between 2 weeks and 6 weeks. I haven't noticed this in 2 weeks and will update when I finish the bottle.
I don't know how much this bottle of serum costs.
In summary, I like that it hydrates and smooths my skin, and makes for a nice base for my moisturiser, but I haven't seen the other benefits yet. I haven't been using it for long though and am interested in it's effects over a longer period. My experience with L'Oreal has been that this type of products generally do what they say they'll do so I'm looking forward to continuing to use it until the bottle runs out and see what happens by then.
4 weeks later So the bottle is done now. I've upped my score for this product. I feel that my skin not only looks toned after each use, but also looks better overall. I would say it does look smoothed and toned and I'm very impressed with the product. $50 is a fair price because it does a great job and has lasted very well. I do recommend trying it.
Honestly i love the vault, i get to try lovely new things i wouldn't usually buy. This is one such thing.
The bottle feels luxurious in my hand and i imagine if i put it in a sock i could do some damage, it's pretty heavy.
The serum itself is glooorious. First application and i thought i was wearing someone elses face! Sadly that notion has stopped but its still lovely.
Im not sure its pumped out my lil baby wrinkles all the way but i do think its made a difference somewhere. Its a wonderful little serum and ill be repurchasing, and i very rarely actually follow through!
