L’Oréal Paris Age Perfect Golden Age Night Cream Review

I was delighted to receive L'Oreal's Golden Age Night Cream to test and review. I was equally delighted to find what a superb product this is.

Housed in a most attractive jar with its gleaming gold lid, this product is the most delicate pink and its subtle aroma is tantalising. Just ideal to encourage a peaceful night's rest. The consistency of the cream is perfect, it glides on to the skin and is absorbed happily, leaving a soft and nourished feel. I have used it every night and I do think my skin wakes up looking brighter!

The 50ml container will last for a long time - frugal application is all that is required for an overall night treatment. Certainly this one is economical. For me it is another L'Oreal gem which will become a regular friend.

I was thrilled to have this product arrive as it was the start of a holiday and I felt so tired and needed to replenish my skin on so many levels. Each night I popped a a finger tip into the lovely thick pink cream and just gently massaged it across my face and neck. It is cool initially but the sheer joy of this product is it's ability to cover well and it 'glides'. The perfume is subtly there and very pleasant. The best part was the definite smoothness and glow my skin has. I even booked myself a facial, as I do each holiday, and my therapist commented on the smoothness and hydration and asked me what I'd done. This product's packaging is very attractive and I like the fact that it can all be recycled and is not animal tested. The purple / pink jar is easy to open and close and use. Personally the 60+ Age factor might even appeal to 50+ as I was looking for a night regime cream then and this is certainly going to remain in my cache. The feel and genuine glow of my softer skin has been so noticeable. I will be recommending it to friends. In fact I've already begun to as they ask me about the real 'glow'. Thank you for this product.

Upon receiving the package, at first my thoughts were the name and details on the box could have been simplified, both seem very busy. When I saw the jar, I was taken by how attractive it was with its gold look lid and pink and lilac base. The cream itself had a gentle, subtle scent and was a nice creamy pink colour. I was getting very excited to try it that evening. It says it's cooling and rosy and yes, it was. It wasn't greasy or oily, went on well and my skin lapped it up.It's cost effective, as a little goes a long way. My skin felt softer and well nourished. It left my skin looking dewy and it had a slightly flushed look for several hours after use. It makes the claim of 'the appearance of sagging and re-tightening is reduced the next morning', after my two week trial, I cannot say this was my experience, but my skin does have a lovely texture whilst using this product. The fact that this product has not been the subject of any animal testing is a big selling point for me.

This night cream has lovely packaging and comes in a box. Information on the box includes active ingredients, directions for use, use by details and even recycling suggestions. It’s good to note that L’Oreal is committed to no animal testing. The cream is made in Germany and not outsourced which is another plus. The night cream is contained in a gold, square shaped, glass jar with a screw on lid. An inner white plastic lid keeps the product from drying out and a little tab on the inner lid makes it easy to remove. The cream is lightly fragranced with a subtle floral perfume. Unfortunately there is no spatula to scoop the cream from the pot making it a bit unhygienic. The cream has quite a thick consistency. At first I thought it was going to be too thick and heavy and hard to absorb but I was surprised to find that when applied as suggested, it absorbed well and didn’t feel heavy or greasy. However use sparingly as a little goes a long way. My skin in winter can get dry and dull. It changes from a normal/dry combination to increased dry patches. The cream did not leave an oily residue and I found in the morning my skin felt soft, nourished and hydrated. It was visibly fresher and brighter. As suggested I applied the cream with a circular motion. If you find it too rich put it on straight after the shower when skin is still damp and this will aid absorption and seal in extra moisture. This is a rich and moisturising product and I could definitely feel its restorative properties. My skin in the morning looked fresh and healthy. It is too soon to say if it will improve any sagging or plump out my wrinkles but I feel that with regular use my skin will continue to improve. This cream is ideal for use nightly on mature and also dry skin.

I love that the Golden Age Night Cream comes in a glass container, although the cap is plastic...an a bit hard to close. The contents, however...are magnificent an totally do what they say! I got a comment on day two saying how fresh and dewy I looked!! Moi?? the texture is creamy and not too thick, and has only a slight hint of fresh flowery scent, it is easy to apply and a little goes a long way. My skin felt cool and relaxed the moment I put it on...and felt wonderful in the morning too with a plumper, less lined look. Definitely one to keep using!

This night cream was a lovely light one to smooth over my face and neck and did not feel at all greasy like some night creams do. The smell is also light and pleasant. After about a week I thought my face did not seem to have its same winter paleness and is glowing a little more. I havent noticed any difference to firmness or lines though, maybe I need to use it longer than 2 weeks for that effect. This brand is reasonably priced so good value.

It really feels like luxury on my skin, l really like the feel of this moisturiser, its not over scented and has a fresh light whipped cream texture too. In the morning l did not have a greasy residue on my skin , it just felt nice and refreshed. I can feel and see my skin looks firmer and my skin colour looks pinker in the morning like it used to when l was younger. The packaging is very elegant , and looks like it's far more expensive a product, Like Loreal products like the Lazer X3 range , which l found very good for my skin as well.

I've been using the product for just over a week now and have to say that I'm very impressed by it. The cream smells delicious and has a very fine, soft texture. I'm not sure that after 8 nights I've actually seen any change but in the past I have struggled making changes to the products I use. I often develop skin irritation when changing and this hasn't happened at all. I normally use Lancome which costs considerably more than the $35 this cream costs. I'm happy to say I'm going to make the change. And all of the packaging can be recycled :)

I was fortunate to be picked to trial this( the golden age -night one. I loved everything about it. I love the way my skin looks and feels, I love the lovely scent of the cream. I believe my skin is looking better than it has for some time. I am 62 and I think my skin is looking younger and more revitalised. I will definitely be buying another jar of this.

I enjoy night creams as there's something luxurious about treating your skin overnight.

This pink cream is very rich and thick - It's really very good to use, easy to rub in with no greasy aftermath.

I really really liked it and I noticed a big difference in my skin - it feels more hydrated and plumper than usual and I do see a more rosy glow to it too!

I used it with my normal L'OREAL day cream and highly recommend adding this in rotation to your regular skin care routine!
