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

This product comes in a pot, and you need to use your finger to get it out, which I'm not keen on. An application stick would be a good idea if they included one. It's smells nice and not too strong and is a pretty pale pink color. It's quite thick but absorbs quickly. Im not sure it's as moisturizing as my normal night cream and as yet my skin does not feel any tightening or less wrinkles or fading of my age spots. But my skin did feel nice and refreshed in the morning so it must be doing something!

Thanks BR for picking me for this trial. Not a huge fan of this cream found it quite greasy on my skin and didn't notice any change to wrinkles but to trial it for this short period of time is unfair on the product. My skin was softer in the morning but i wouldn't rave about it. Found the pot to be quite boring looking despite the box it came in looked good. The cream itself smelt nice was a pinkish colour and applied easily only small amount required. I have tried far better creams I would recommend this for someone with drier skin.

I received this product as part of a trial of the Age Perfect Collagen Tightening cream regime & used every night for 2 weeks so far. The packaging is classic L'Oreal white & gold & looks simple but elegant. The cream is lightly fragranced & a whitey orangy clolour. A little bit goes a reasonable way so this will last me perhaps 8-10 weeks of nightly use. No applicator so dip in a clean index finger & smooth it on after cleansing at night. L'Oreal seems to have quite a few of similar products targetting post menopausal/ mature women -wrinkles, sagging & age spots, with slight differences in the added extras - this one has natural collagen amino acid fractions to retighten. As far as results go - I'm still on the fence. My skin does look & feel quite well hydrated at the time of application and in the morning. I can't say I've noticed much reduction in sagging (a bit going on there) and I don't have a lot of age spots yet to say it's helped with that. I will continue the regime (also have the eye cream) and have now received the day cream to try out. After a month the results are promised as "skin recovers its tightness and facial contours are visibly more defined". Fingers crossed.... two weeks to go - results to be updated in the regime review.

Having just turned 50 and with a lifetime of dry skin behind me, I was so glad to be chosen to be part of the trial team for this product. The jar is a great size, the cream is lovely and hydrating and the smell is subtle but pleasant. It definitely hydrates! I've only been using it for 2 weeks though, so can't comment on the 'retightening' claims with this cream. I do enjoy using it and have found it a welcome addition to my nightly skincare routine. I haven't seen any evidence of any re-plumping either but I'm going to continue to use it until the jar is empty and evaluate results for myself then. Judging by how little I've used so far (a little goes a long way), I'd say this jar will last me well over the month, possibly around the 6 week mark. By then the results should be obvious as the claims on the box say I should expect results after 1 month.

Regardless of that, it's a lovely rich cream that absorbs quickly and easily and hasn't caused any reaction to my sometimes-sensitive skin. It accompanies the eye cream nicely and the two do seem to complement each other.

My rating reflects the fact that I've only been using the product for 2 weeks so I don't feel comfortable rating it up or down when the box clearly says it takes at least 1 month to see any results. Perhaps BR could extend these trials until the length of time recommended to see results in future? It feels like a fairer way to assess the situation.

I was excited to try this night cream as really like Loreal products and this had the extra boost of collagen. I have been using every night for over a week. This comes in a nice white container and has no scent. Product is very light on the skin and blends in easily. I have noticed that my skin feels more plump and is definitely not as dry as it was. My skin feels really soft and smooth. As for the lines and age spots, to tell you the truth, I have not noticed any difference. Maybe I need to keep on using this to see what happens. Don't get me wrong, I do like this product but there has been no miracle disappearing of fine lines.

I found this product very rich and buttery. Its a pale pink coloured, pleasantly fragranced product and easy to apply and absorb into the skin. I think it helped the overall condition of my skin, I have a few troublesome areas like my forehead where I have a little dry flakey rosacea. It definitely helped that area. I have been using it for 10 days and will continue on with it.

It’s packaged nicely in a white jar with a gold lid. Available at places like Farmers and The Warehouse so easy to get hold of.

A good night cream shouldn’t feel claggy or heavy and this one certainly ticks that box. My skin feels smooth and nourished in the morning. I think that a few more weeks’ use would show if age spots have disappeared - i only have a few blemishes. I don’t think my skin is tighter yet though it has definitely benefited from a good daily night cream. I will update this after a month’s use to update on facial retightening. It has a pleasant fragrance and smoothies into my skin easily. A good cream and is a pleasure to use at the end of the day.

My first impressions are good. I do have a tendency to sensitive skin, and so far so good but from that point of view it's early days.

It is rich and creamy without being "heavy" and it absorbs into my skin overnight well. when I wake in the morning my skin feels very soft. The rich, luxurious texture sinks into the skin to leave it feeling velvety soft and pampers the skin Skin feels nourished, more supple and comfortable. My skin feels denser.

So far I have noticed no difference to age spots or sagging but as I said before it is early days and the instructions did specify these differences take about a month to show

I think I need to use the products for a bit longer than two weeks to get the full overall effect but am very pleased so far and would buy this again.
