L'Oréal Paris Age Perfect Collagen Expert Retightening Care Day Cream

I love this kind of packaging where the cream is in a jar so you can use up every last little bit of the cream. A lot of products now come in pump bottles, but you end up not being able to get to the last of the cream, so I feel that’s a waste. I use a tiny plastic spatula to get the cream out of the jar. The cream goes on smoothly and really made my skin feel hydrated. I felt it had a nice, dewy look even four hours after applying it. It has a light, pleasant fragrance as well. It made my skin look dewy, so I wore nothing but sunblock and a small amount of liquid blush on my cheeks. I tend to have dry skin and this has helped my skin look less dry. The package says this product is “Collagen Tightening Cream” and claims to be anti-sagging and anti age spots. As the review is due after only being able to trial the product for 14 days, I can’t honestly say I’ve seen much of a difference in terms of sagging, but most products take much longer to see results than just 14 days. I will carry on using this product in the hope that it delivers on the promise of anti-sagging. I would definitely buy this day cream in future and I’d recommend it to others as well. Make sure you remember to use a sunblock 365 days of the year.

This cream is a luxury feeling nice textured easily absorbed cream. I really like using it and think it’s helped the problem areas of my skin like the dry rosacea patch on my forehead. My skin looks better overall and I just like the feel of the product. Nice packaging and not over the top pricing.

I love the no-nonsense of this day cream. A slight pleasant fragrance, not overpowering at all. So easy to apply and don't need to use much, always a bonus. I'm convinced that i have less sag around the neck and jaw line from using this product. My skin feels great.

Again great packaging to highlight this product. This is a slightly more heavier cream than the night cream with a slight fragrance. Absorbs easily and doesn’t leave a greasy film. After using for a week my skin is looking slightly brighter although to soon to see any skin tightening yet. Noticed there is a melanin blocker in this formula which for freckle prone skin like mine is fantastic. Also the addition of collagen amino fractions to firm and tighten skin make this product a must have for mature skin.

My skin felt refreshed after applying this product and it lasted well throughout the day. I liked that it was quickly absorbed and didn't leave residue on the skin surface. Was also glad to see all the packaging can be recycled and instructions were given for this too.

Thi day cream does suit my skin. Fortunately I am not very wrinkled for someone of 70 and this cream certainly goes a long way to tightening the small lines without leaving any residue.. I will keep using it because I have had no adverse side effects at all. We cannot expect miracles though using a good cream like this every day goes a long way to improving and maintaining our complexion as well as we can. It works well under my makeup too which is important for me. I give it a tick and certainly recommend this Day Cream very positively.

I like this day cream, I just don't love it. I didn't find it very tightening (but then, I've only been using it for 2 weeks, and they say on the packaging to allow a month to see any 'retightening') but it was very moisturising and left my skin feeling refreshed and hydrated. I have quite dry skin that usually needs a bit of extra TLC so I found this day cream to be great in that respect, I just haven't seen any sign of the retightening results. I'll continue to use it until the jar is empty and re-evaluate whether to purchase another jar at that stage.

As to the packaging, it's the usual pot which is easy opening and very pleasant to look at. The cream itself is quite thick so I warm some up in my hands before I apply and that really helps it to spread nicely. It doesn't seem to pill under makeup and leaves my skin feeling nice and smooth afterwards.

It doesn't have any SPF so you'll need to wear sunscreen over it (no big deal for me as I wear sunscreen every day regardless, but worth mentioning if you don't).

Overall, a nice cream that does a good job of moisturising. If it wasn't for the retightening claim, I'd probably rate it higher but given that I've only been using it for 2 weeks, I can only comment on what I know to be true thus far.

I am a little disappointed in this day cream by my favourite skincare brand L’Oreal. Yes, it is designed for the more mature skin but I find it far too heavy for a day cream. It’s not easy to apply and to be honest I can’t find a lot of difference between this and the night cream consistency wise. It also does not contain a SPF which is an absolute must these days. However, once on it seems to do the job okay and my skin feels hydrated all day.

I've been using this cream now for about 10 or so days. I did receive it as part of a trial team, but I can honestly say that it is making a difference already- tightening and improving the firmness and smoothness of my face & neck. The cream is aimed at the 50+ group focussing on anti-sagging and anti-age spots (some of the joys accompanying & after menopause!). I have no age spots to mention but definite anti-sagging is happening. The peachy coloured, lightly fragranced cream is reasonably thick but quickly absorbs well without feeling greasy. The packaging is the classic white/ gold L'Oreal cardboard outer and the cream is contained in a 50ml white opaque square glass pottle with a gold lid. Writing/ instructions on the outer package is large enough to read, except the ingredients- which need glasses. There doesn't appear to be any SPF in this cream so make sure you wear sun protection. I've been slathering the cream on so I estimate it will last me perhaps 6 weeks - 8 weeks My take on this is that it's worth a go if things are starting to head a bit downwards :)
