This product has changed my life. Prior to using the Lancome Visonnaire serum I had recently got on top of my acne, and had no more active blemishes. I did however have significant scarring. My pale face was covered in strong, red acne scars alongside enlarged pores and a small amount of pigmentation. I dreaded looking in the mirror, wouldn't let anyone other than my partner see me without a full coverage foundation on, and wouldn't even walk to the letterbox without makeup on. I was so lucky to have my acne under control, but I was still very, very self conscious of my skin. Impressed by the technology behind it, I decided to purchase the Lancome Visonnaire serum. I used this product every day for 6 months with no other products designed to treat acne scarring.
It is a luxury product and this is immediately reflected in the packaging. It is simple, sleek and sturdy with a pump for dispensing product. The pump only dispenses a small amount of product, which is perfect. The formula itself is the colour of a pearl, with a thin, easy to spread consistency. Only a tiny amount is needed, and therefore I am only just over half way through the product after 6 months of twice a day use. It has almost no scent.
The Lancome Visonnaire serum is designed to treat wrinkles, pores and uneven skin tone (dark spots, scarring etc). This isn't an overnight miracle cosmetic product, in fact I saw no results for the first few weeks. It is a skincare treatment, and after 3 months I noticed a significant difference in the appearance of my pores, and the beginning of my acne scars fading. After 6 months the difference in my skin is incredible. Unfortunately I cannot post before and after photos on this review, but the scarring has completely gone other than a few fresh scars from recent blemishes. Yes, my scarring was bound to fade over time but this was very fast, particularly on such pale skin. I 100% recommend the Lancome Visionnaire for the treatment of acne scarring.
Today, I am much more confident in my skin. When I show people the photo of what my skin looked like 6 months ago, they are amazed. I will continue to use the Lancome Visonnaire serum to treat my pores, dark spots and any occasional new scars. It is expensive but this product has given me a huge, continued confidence boost.
I received a sample of this with an eye cream I brought at the Lancome counter and for some unbeknown reason it sat on my dresser for a good week before I tried it. The first time I tried it I swear I noticed a difference straight away. So after a week of trying it I fell in love with it so much I spent the $182 for the 50ml bottle and to me it's money well spent.
First of all I have a few lines on my forehead and around my mouth and I'm a bit self conscious of them so if nothing else I want to stop them from getting worse if I can't make them better. Like I said above the first time I used it my forehead lines seemed softened and when I purchased the bottle the lovely lady at the lancome counter said I would notice a difference straight away. How or why? I'm not sure but it did.
The pump bottle is very pretty in a vibrant teal colour that stands out. The serum is like a white when you first pump it out then it looks a kind of pink, rose gold colour it's quite shimmery to look at but doesn't show up on the skin. I use 3-4 pumps at a time and it sinks in without a trace. The consistency is very light weight and feels gorgeous on my skin.
I have been using it daily for around 2 months now and I'm not sure that the lines have softened much but it has definitely make my skin softer and evened it out a lot. I have had so many comments about how good my skin looks and how healthy it looks since I have been using it. I love this and will be repurchasing it once the bottle is empty, nothing for my skin has made such a big difference as what this has done it really is a miracle in a jar.
