L’Oreal Paris Revitalift Laser x3 - Intensive Anti-Ageing Regime Review

I have used the Revitalift Laser X3 serum, day cream, eye cream and night cream for 3wks now and am loving the appearance of my face after this time.

The day, night and serum come in classy red glass containers which I found attractive but rather heavy so this would be a negative if travelling etc. A small plastic applicator which some other Brands store in the lid would definitely be helpful for removal of the day and night creams instead of dabbing your finger in the pots.

All the products had a beautiful floral smell which wasn’t overpowering and seemed to linger for a while which I liked. The textures are very silky and they all apply very easily to the skin. The moisturisers felt lovely on after using the serum too as usually my skin can feel too slippery or greasy. My face was left with a lovely shine to it which reflected light and made my face look quite radiant (for a change!).

My skin still felt very hydrated at the end of the day and when I wake up in the morning. I have noticed that the fine lines have filled out especially in the forehead and mouth areas and together with the reflective nature of the cream I am really happy how my skin looks. My skin did not feel tight as though it needed more either.

I really enjoyed using all the products each day and have noticed my skin is definitely smoother in appearance.

I would highly recommend this to people as it is great value for money as a little goes a long long way.

I was so excited to be selected for this trial. My skin is dry and I have fine lines around my eyes and some deeper lines on my forehead. I really wanted to give this a good test so I have  been using it day and night for 4 weeks and never missed a day. The packaging is beautiful. Very sturdy glass jars in a rich dark red with metallic lids. I love how the set is all the same colour, they are all really appealing to me.

At first when I applied all the products my skin burnt and stung so much. I was feeling quite disappointed as I thought I would not be able to trial them, I decided to try again the next night and phew I did not have the same reaction and it has been fine since! Not sure what that was about. Perhaps a new ingredient my skin needed to adjust too.

For my routine I only used the eye cream and moisturiser during the day and the full range at night obviously swapping the day cream for the night cream.

EYE CREAM: This comes in a cute wee squeezy tube with a metal applicator. I simply place the end under my eye area and gently squeeze the tube then lightly pat it in. It feels very cooling and luxurious. It does not sting my eyes at all which is great as lots of other products have in the past. It has made a huge difference to my fine lines which I find incredible in such a short amount of time and I wish I took before photos.

SERUM: I love this! It is very light and smells gorgeous like the rest of the range. I use 2 pumps and it covers my entire face and neck. I like to dot it on my forehead, cheeks and chin then lightly pat in. It sinks in so well and does not leave my skin feeling greasy or sticky. I have just over half left which is awesome. So I should get just over 2 months use out of this.

DAY CREAM: My least favourite of the range. This cream is so thick and heavy for a day cream and I had trouble wearing it in the summer heat. It made my face feel sticky and with the super hot days we have been having it made my bb cream slide around and just generally felt far too heavy on my face. I think this would be best used in the winter or at night time. I wish they had a lighter option in this range.

NIGHT CREAM: Love this night cream. It has a gel kind of texture which I adore. Smells fantastic. You really only need a little amount as it spreads well. I dot it on my forehead and cheeks then gently rub it in. It does leave my skin a bit shiny but as I use this before bed I am not fussed. My skin feels super soft and smooth and when I wake up in the morning it is never dry.

Overall this range has done wonders for my skin! I have not had any breakouts since using it, my skin is definitely more plump and looks so fresh. My lines have reduced and the overall appearance is way more smoother. Not to mention how soft my skin is! I love this range and think it is a great price for fantastic products. If they could sort the day cream out it would be a 10/10.

I love the whole range of Revitalift and each component of the regime (Serum, Eye Cream, Day Cream and Night Cream) felt an equally important part of the process. Same red, contemporary packaging throughout the entire range makes for good brand continuity and helps distinguish which complimentary products go with what, which age group it is best suited to, etc. The entire range has a nice smell to it, the creams aren't too thick, but instead were light and fresh feeling upon application, and they genuinely seem to do the job they said they were going to. In conjunction with using the entire Revitalift range, after the first few days, my skin felt softer, and I am convinced my 45 year old, sensitive and moderately wrinkled skin, has less obvious lines and looks fresher - ie, I look younger!! My skin felt great after day one and still does, 3 weeks later after using all products within this range daily. Competitively priced and I will definitely recommend.

I was thrilled to be selected to trial these products. My skin is just starting to 'age' so I'm keen to try anything to slow down the process!

My first thoughts were the scent was what I'd expect on a much more expensive product. Secondly, the texture of all the products is very fine and delicate, again what you'd expect from products that costs much more.

After each step, my skin did not feel greasy or heavy but well moisturized. There has been a definite improvement in the look of my skin with the lines around my eyes becoming plumped and not so deep. I had a dry patch on my cheek which is now gone.

I would definitely recommend this L'Oreal range. I love it and will keep using it.

I was honoured to trial the L’Oréal Intensive Anti-Ageing Regime. I was immediately impressed with the packaging which is very luxurious and high-end in appearance showcasing the products in silvery/purple metallic boxes, gold script and red. The actual product is equally luxe with the day and night cream being in heavy glass jars with silver/purple metallic lids. The serum is in a glass pump bottle and the eye cream in a tube. L'OREAL ANTI-AGING POWER SERUM The serum is silky in appearance and easy to apply requiring one or two drops depending on skin dryness. It promises to reduce wrinkles, tighten pores, even and firm skin. On first applying the serum I found the fragrance to be off putting, reminding me of aftershave. However, I like this product; my skin appears to have improved in evenness and looks firmer. L'OREAL INTENSIVE ANTI-AGING DAY MOISTURISER This moisturiser is very thick and heavy in appearance but light to touch. It promises to improve skin’s quality, fine lines, wrinkles and crow’s feet. It also promises to firm, increase denseness and give the face a redefined look. It states to massage for better absorption. When I first started using the day moisturiser I was impressed with the overall improvement in my skin however, as the days became hotter, I struggled to use this moisturiser let alone massage it in. It slides around my face and ‘sits’ on my skin. It has reduced the improvement I first experienced when using the range. This moisturiser maybe better suited to a drier skin rather than the normal to oily combination of my skin. L'OREAL INTENSIVE ANTI-AGING MASK-CREAM NIGHT Like the day moisturiser, the night cream is very thick and heavy with a smooth consistency, hence the ‘mask-cream’. It promises by morning your skin will look new, smoothed and tightened. It will visibly reduce wrinkles and repair, re-texturise and transform skin. It massages well and immediately leaves the skin feeling incredibly soft and smooth. Until I started having problems with the day moisturiser, my skin did look great in the morning. L'OREAL ANTI-AGING EYE CREAM This is the star of the range! It is a lovely lightweight eye cream, easy to apply using the cooling metal doe foot applicator. It promises to smooth the skin around the eye area, reduce bags and refresh the look of eyes. It promises to reduce wrinkles, firm, tone and lift the eye contour area. My crow’s feet are definitely less defined and smoother looking and my eye area does seem firmer. I love this product and will be re-purchasing! Overall these products are a good skincare range for the mature skin. I have been using the range for four weeks and until compromised by the day moisturiser I experienced an improvement in my skin tone and smoothness. My skin felt plumper, firmer and looked brighter. The crow’s feet around my eyes are definitely less pronounced. Now if only it would fix the groves above my top lip!

Was delighted to see L’Oreal products ,always my favourites . Came in a nice sized bottle ,easy to use ,at first I thought the pump wasn’t working well but realised you only use a small amount ..and that’s how it is meant to work

Felt lovely on my skin,made my skin feel nice ,however noticed later as I rubbed my face ,a rubbery like substance came off .

I didn’t really notice any benefits as such from the serum ,as much as it felt nice on . So I wouldn’t purchase as don’t find it necessary .

It is a good quality product ,just not for me .

L'Oreal is my favourite skincare brand, and with good reason, their skin care products usually live up to their claims. I've been fortunate enough to get selected to trial the LASER X 3 range, lucky me!

SERUM: This comes in a red glass bottle with a pump dispenser. Two pumps does the entire face and neck. It has a delicate rose scent, its slightly creamy (other serums I've tried are either liquid or gel), and it applies very easily. Loving it.

EYE CREAM: This is in a tube with a metal applicator. I'm not too sure what this is meant to to achieve as you still need to use fingers to smooth the cream in but it does have a cooling affect, and along with the caffeine would help reduce puffiness. It is a light thinnish cream with a barely detectable scent, this also applies well, and there is no greasiness.

DAY CREAM: Also comes in red glass, has a similar scent to the serum. The consistency is quite thick for a day cream but it's not greasy and also applies easily.

NIGHT CREAM: Again in a nice red jar and a similar scent. I was a bit surprised as it has a slight gel-like consistency and seems lighter than the day cream. However, it is lovely to put on and does not leave my skin feeling a bit heavy and oily like some night creams, so a big tick from me.

I've been using this range for nearly a month and overall I really like it. The packaging, metallic and red is eye-catching and looks very nice sitting on the shelf altogether. I also like and appreciate that all 4 products smell the same or similar and it's pleasant and not overpowering. My skin tone has improved and definitely looks a lot more even and hydrated. My guess is these would last around 2 months so at the price that's good value for a very nice skin care regime.

Prior to this review I had used the serum before, but none of the others.... I changed completely from my usual routine

Serum: The first morning and night I put this on I got a very slight tingling to it. It went on very smooth and my skin felt fantastic. Over time my complexion has definitely brightened and looks clearer with use. I LOVED the previous serum and this one doesn't disappoint either.

Eye-cream: I love the applicator. I've had another brand of eye cream with the same applicator and I love it. It feels cool on the eye area. The actual tube it’s in is quite firm and I felt I had to squeeze well and truly to get product to the applicator and sometimes I'd then have too much product - so recommend storing the tube on its lid on sloped towards the lid to have the product waiting when you squeeze. Eye area wrinkles and puffiness aren't a big problem area for me, but it was a lovely product on and certainly made the eye area feel moisturised and soft.

Day Cream: this one was a problem for me - it goes on lovely, and is super nourishing, and you definitely don't have dry skin, but it felt greasy and extra shiny..... and that was fine except when it came time for makeup, and using a BB cream rather than foundation I found the BB cream slid around my face and caked in places - I'd have to use my fingers to smooth it out and powder to de-shine me.... The BB cream is a separate dilemma for me so maybe a different one would work better for me - but it was probably my biggest issue with the products for this review

Night Cream - YES! A nourishing night cream/mask that my skin LOVED! IT is heavy, but it is a mask, but with that it is super nourishing and from Day 1 I woke up with lovely baby soft skin, that with time looked smoother and clearer (likely a combo of serum and the cream! With having the night mask in my routine, I found I was less critical of the dryness of my skin during the day which was a big flaw in my previous routine as I always felt dry and aged by the end of the day - obviously I didn't have the right night product until now. I really like this night cream and will keep it in my routine.

I enjoyed all of these products - some more than others. The night cream was probably the big win for me in helping with my on-going dry skin – it turned around my skin very quickly. My skin overall has a much better texture and is super soft. Without makeup, it looks brighter. I'd possibly switch out the day cream for another, it just left me feeling to shiny/greasy - but I didn't feel I had dry skin end of the day so it certainly does its job.

I will say re. packaging that the day and night cream containers are so heavy! I dropped one into the porcelain sink and thankfully it didn't break and the sink lived too, but I was worried! Very attractive looking packaging etc. though. Have always liked the serum pump bottle.

If you are particularly bothered by dry, ageing skin I think these products are a great regime to change that!

Review disclaimer: This was a BIG review and to be as fair as possible to the products, I shelved my regular routine and didn't add in any new products just so I could gauge the effectiveness of this line alone.

Serum Oh my gosh. My skin loved this. Two pumps, twice a day and my skin was just drinking it in. Doesn’t smell too bad, and does make my skin feel amazing straight after application. The texture of my skin did improve slightly, but I also starting breaking out.

Day Cream Not offensive and probably a bit heavier than I’d like from a day cream. No SPF which is disappointing as over the summer holidays, I gave my skin a break and didn’t wear any makeup. I would say that yes, my skin is firmer, but marginally so. A thick-ish cream too, so not my favourite as I like my creams to be super lightweight. Merely a personal preference kind of thing.

Night Cream For two weeks, when this cream went on, I wanted to claw my face off. Its not so much as a cream, but a moisture mask. I despise heavy moisturisers every night. The texture is kind of like a jelly/cream; smell not offensive, but its so thick and heavy. Every morning I woke up with the Exxon Oil Slick for a face. It is just too much moisture. It’ll have its place, like after an AHA peel where you want to get as much moisture in to settle the skin as possible, but every night, its a nope from me.

Eye Cream The bags under my eyes are Chanel. Or at least, I wish they were. This was the only product that gave me the most noticeable results. Whilst my wrinkles didn’t get zapped into history, they certainly were slightly less visible and my skin texture certainly improved. Even a wee dark spot beside one eye has started to go away as well. The applicator is bizarre and with my bad eyesight and a mirror far away, I got it in my eye once, so resorted to using my fingers for application.
