Lancome Advanced Genifique Youth Activating Concentrate Review

I started using this after I received a trial size pack years ago, and I just won't go without it now - under moisturiser (day and night) and my skin feels a million dollars.

I also got a trial size of this product and it is legit amazing. I used it under my foundation and found my skin stayed hydrated and soft all day. But as much as I love it, I just can't afford it right now. It is expensive!

I was very privileged and thankful to be given the amazing opportunity to review Lancome Advanced Genifique Youth Activating Concentrate. Thank you very much BR :-)

The black boxed packaging is opulent and elegant. It has the Lancome signature small rose on the lid of the box. Once you open the lid of the box there are written instructions and a visual on the inside to show how to use the serum applicator. The packaging makes you feel like you are in for a high quality, luxurious experience.

Inside the box is an elegant, sturdy glass bottle that is cleverly ombre from black to white and has a steel like cap. The cap has the Lancome signature small rose on top.

To use, simply twist the silver cap open to reveal a glass, self-loading dropper. There is no guess work on the correct portion to use, as it dispenses the right amount every time I use it.

I apply Lancome Advanced Genifique Youth Activating Concentrate after cleansing in the morning as a day serum and in the evening as a night serum. My face looks very forward to this routine as well.

After cleansing and applying Lancome Genifique - Eye Light Pearl, I then apply Lancome Advanced Genifique Youth Activating Concentrate. Simply unscrew the lid of Lancome Advanced Genifique Youth Activating Concentrate and press on top of the dropper to dispense the serum into your hand. With your free hand dip your fingers in to the product and dot onto your forehead, nose, chin and both cheeks. Gently rub into your skin.

Lancome Advanced Genifique Youth Activating Concentrate serum is lightweight, easily absorbs into your skin and leaves no residue.

My experience has only been for a short time but the benefits it has consistently given my skin during this time has already made me a huge fan. At the time of writing my review today, I have been using Lancome Advanced Genifique Youth Activating Concentrate twice a day for just over 2 weeks. This wonderful serum has 100% smoothed out my complexion and my skin feels supple. My skin is looking the best that it has in a very long time. It is like a pre-skin care booster shot that takes your entire routine to the next level.

I know I have already mentioned it but I do love how my entire face feels smoother and less textured. This is an easy product to use and incorporate into a daily routine. Hydrating goodness.

I love Lancome Advanced Genifique Youth Activating Concentrate and will continue to use.

I'm going to start with the only potential negative, which is the cost. This is definitely an investment in skin care, it's not one to pick up on a whim that's for sure - I'd recommend trying a sample first. Chances are you'll be wowed enough to buy it!

I am ticking along in years and coming up to December was feeling a little fed up about my lines and wrinkles. A recent birthday only compounded the grumpiness about my ageing face. So thanks BR, this came at the right time!

The bottle and packaging are pure class, what else would you expect from Lancome?

I've been using this twice a day after cleansing. I've been applying as I would my usual serum when my skin is ever so slightly damp - it seems to help the serum absorb faster and spread easier, without sitting on the skin.

I experience no untoward sensations upon application, but I can feel the product, if that makes sense.

I like to wait around 3-5 minutes before applying my usual moisturiser, just to ensure this is probably absorbed.

After several weeks of use my skin looks and feels remarkably better than before. The texture is more even, less crepey and saggy. Tighter, without being tight. It's plumped up my fine lines and I believe my deeper wrinkles are at the beginning of looking improved.

My skin feels incredibly soft and supple, I don't feel like the dry old crone of just a few weeks ago.

This isn't exactly botox in a jar - but nor did I expect it to be. But as serums go, this is the best I've tried and I honestly don't think it can be surpassed. I will continue use while I put some money aside to replenish when this bottle is empty!

This facial serum comes in a luxe glass bottle. The lid has a dropper with the required amount that you dispense in your palm and dot over your face, then finish off with smoothing strokes. The serum is clear and contains probiotics.

Initially my skin needed more than one dropper of serum and now that my skin has improved I just need the one.

My skin feels smooth, slightly firmer and is more youthful in touch and appearance. I have used this morning and night for approximately 3 weeks so yes it has met it's initial claims. The next claim is for major signs of ageing appear improved after using one bottle so I will add to this review if I notice further improvements.

This sank into my skin and definitely improved the texture. Would I buy this? Yes if it was in my budget.

This works well with the Light Pearl Eye & Lash Serum.

I have been loving trialing this product.

This product is packaged beautifully, the bottle is lovely with a nice silver lid. I have found the bottle easy to open and it has a nice dropper to apply a small amount to your face. A little goes a long way. It is silky smooth and has a pleasant scent. I apply a drop to my forehead, cheeks and chin, it spreads well and absorbs into skin nicely with no residue. My skin is sensitive and even using it twice a day I have not reacted to it. I use it in the morning under my foundation. My skin is looking smooth and glowing. I would definitely recommend this product.

I was extremely fortunate to be selected to trial the Lancome Advanced Genifique Youth Activating Concentrate and I am so excited to share this review! This is more than a serum - its an experience. The bottle hints at the magic within by resembling a magic potion with a very unique, yet very functional dispenser inside the lid. You simply open the bottle and the dropper loads with the perfect amount of serum. Push the button at the top of the lid and the dropper empties the contents. Simple as even for a ditsy blonde like me! The serum itself is a cloudy liquid which spreads easily on to the face and absorbs quickly. I always found one dropper load was enough to do my entire face, except for my eyes. Because I was lucky enough to also get the eye serum I didn't use this in my eye area. The results are truly magic. My skin hasn't been this soft for years and my fine lines have definitely reduced in visibility. After just over 2 weeks of usage, twice a day, I have noticed such a difference I think I will never live without it in my bathroom again. Yes it is pricey at around $120 a 30 ml bottle but honey you are so worth it!

The great experience all starts with the bottle - what a beautiful elegant shape and colour that you're happy to have left out in the bathroom. The 'button' on the top was a neat way to draw and release liquid from the stem. So from a classy, chic experience perspective, top marks. Most importantly, it did the job and a little went a long way. It was easy to apply and absorbed quickly before I applied my moisturiser. My skin has not felt dry at all which is something I can experience at this time of year. I highly recommend this product - going to be a 2021 favourite.
