I have definitely noticed a marked improvement in my skin since using this product. It feels smooth and moisturised for the rest of the day when I am wearing it. It is easy to apply - not too light and not too heavy so it doesn't feel greasy or weighted on the skin.
The packaging is also really nice and sleek as it's easy to open and close and the plastic insert helps keep it clean and sanitary.
Overall I really enjoyed using this and would definitely be repurchasing in the future
Claims: Corrects, Re-densifies & Re-supports. Wow, I have never used such a lush day cream.
Comes in a 50ml glass pot with secure lid. Silky smooth texture that easily absorbs. Not too thick and not too thin, pale pinky/goldy coloured and delicate fragrance that has that unique Loreal smell. A little goes a long way, nice to massage in and a pea sized amount is perfect for me.
The first 10 days or so my skin just soaked it up, it was so happy to be getting such a great moisturizer. No breakouts either = happy me :)
The cream is so lush, I was surprised by that. Most day creams are a lot less lush and felt very spoilt by this one. Claiming it to be a intensive moisterisor is spot on. I like how they describe it as a re-densifies, that is a great word to describe the change after 4 weeks. Face is much more even, softer and smooth. The cream absorbs well and doesn't leave a nasty "silky" layer that some other creams do making putting foundation on annoying. I have stayed hydrated all day, the wear of the cream is remarkable.
Even more remarkable due to me needing to have my cooling pump on during the day at the moment, I would have expected air conditioning to dry my skin out more but nope. Only down point is that it doesn't have a SPF factor, I never not use SPF on face so just a little before moisterising does the trick but nice not to have to worry. Wouldn't stop me re-purchasing again though.
The packaging didn't jump out at me as amazing, the Loreal red is nice but the packaging itself is a bit hoo-hum so if I was browsing for a product would probably overlook this one. But boring is good in this case. The red and grey packaging matches the pot.
After 4 weeks only used about 15% so would expect to last for another 3-5 months for sure. Storing in a cool & dark cupboard also helps with keeping it fresh. Using a serum before I really haven't used that much, just perhaps a pea sized amount. But the most remarkable thing about this product (& the serum and night cream as I can't 100% pin point it) is my cheek redness has dramatically decreased. I don't have Rosia or anything like that, just red rosy cheeks that annoyed the be-jebers out of me. I wouldn't go without using a decent colour corrector. No more colour corrector needed. Very unexpected and I am delighted by it.
At $40 I feel its a little higher in the "budget conscious" market BUT its one of the most effective and nicest creams I have used for a while. I'd buy again for sure. Anyone purchasing it wouldn't be disappointed and hits the mark for the anti-aging market.
Tips: Don't forget your SPF if you are used to using a day cream with SPF added.
