It was exciting to be involved in the trial of a ‘new to market’ product, thank you Beauty Review.
On receiving the product it was good to see a well-known brand. The product is nicely and simply packaged, clean crisp colours, white, gold and silver and the touch of blue gives a futuristic feel. It says it’s specifically developed for those over 35 years (I’m a few years passed that now!) Its main claim is that it’s anti-wrinkle and hydrating, with collagen biospheres to help ‘plump’ the skin.
The product itself it contained within a very simple glass jar with a white plastic lid. When I first opened to jar, it almost looked as if the product had separated slightly, cream and liquid. This however seems to be the way the product is meant to be almost like a cold cream. It’s a little tricky to get it onto your finger to distribute as it is so hydrating!
Once on your fingers and applied it feels wonderful, really refreshing, as if you’re splashing your face with water, then it turns a bit greasy, and this is where I thought ‘oh no’ I’m going to be left with a greasy face but then it all soaks in, leaving a lovely dewy complexion. It really is quite lovely.
It does hydrate for a long period of time, not sure 24hrs worth but certainly the whole day. I would say this is its best claim, hydration. As usual with all these ‘miracle’ creams, I’ve not noticed a huge difference in fine lines or plumpness to my skin, maybe with further use. Also there is no SPF in it, which is a shame as it’s so needed in NZ.
In summation, it is lovely to use, a little goes a long way and it is very hydrating and has a clean and pleasant fragrance.
Although I don't have a lot of wrinkles I was excited to try this product. The package has good info on it that is easy to read. Packaging is nice and simple and isn't over the top. The cream itself has a pleasant scent while not overpowering and is thick, creamy with a silky texture. My skin felt hydrated throughout the day without being oily which I find can be a problem with some creams. I have noticed my skin is smoother with almost all dry patches gone. Foundation/BB cream goes on and looks a lot nicer due to the smoother skin. I have found the wrinkles I do have are minimized. I have one main one that makes me look like I am frowning all the time. This has minimized considerably which I am pleased with. I think the price for the size and the length of time it will last is great. I would be keen to see what differences there are using all products in this range together.
Tips: A little goes a long way
