After cleansing, apply your serum as the first step in your routine, in the morning and at night. I would use it again in a few months to change up my skin, maybe for a few days (I always mix and rotate products—I think it’s the best form of consistency you can give your face). Other than Retin-A or retinol, I see the best results on my skin with plant-based products. But in all honesty, the wow factor wore off on the fifth day. I don’t know why, and nothing changed with my skin routine or my lifestyle habits.
“My skin is so much more hydrated and my skin tone has improved. I use it morning and night and don’t ever go a day without it.” Let’s be honest, Lily Collins’s youthful, glowing complexion is what we all dream about for our own skin. Thankfully, the Emily in Paris actress let the world in on her everyday skincare regimen in a Vogue Beauty video yesterday. While we’d no doubt add all the products she mentioned to our virtual carts in a heartbeat, one anti-aging serum Collins shared really stuck out — and it just so happens to be on sale.

So, this time, when my skin simply broke down under stress, change of weather and tonnes of comfort food, out came the Génifique. Treat dark spots and uneven texture similar to a laser treatment as you help speed recovery Estee Lauder makeup from past damage and restore skin’s luminosity. This power serum targets both stubborn visible spots as well as hidden spots. Our formula contains a unique SK-II brightening complex that penetrates into the skin.
I purchased it based on the recommendation of a local aesthetician. She recommended this product because she said it would rehydrate my skin and minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. I could still see the fine lines and wrinkles after a couple of months of use and really didn’t notice much of a difference in the appearance or texture of my skin. Once this product ran out, I did not invest in it again due to the high per ounce cost of the cream serum.
The Advanced Génifique bottle also features an innovative self-loading dropper for the perfect usage amount/per application. With that said, this product also contains a good amount of alcohol denat , in addition to potentially irritating scent ingredients like limonene, citronellol, and fragrance. While the former is likely what gives it its absorbent, fast-drying consistency, alcohol denat can be drying and may counteract the work of the hydrating Estee Lauder NIGHT REPAIR bifidus prebiotic, hyaluronic acid, and ceramides. While alcohol isn’t all bad, many people avoid any and all beauty products that contain alcohol, so it’s really a matter of personal preference. My first impression of any product is its packaging and ease of use, and as I’ve written in this column before, I’m obsessed with high-quality droppers and pump mechanisms. I’m happy to report that the Génifique dropper is perfectly engineered.
I bought Lancome Genifique cautiously hoping that it would deliver on the promices it made about noticably improving the appearance of fine lines and make my skin smoother and more radiant. I felt I had nothing to lose if it did not work because the store where I bought it has an excellent refund policy. All I accomplished was cultivating a lovely crop of pimples. The salesperson claimed that I would notice an improvement in one week.
The formula has been created for anyone who wants to improve their skin barrier or notices that their skin is imbalanced. Factors for the latter can arrive in the form of common skin concerns like dryness, redness, and sensitivity. To be used both in the mornings and evenings, Lancôme’s Advanced Génifique should ideally be the first step after cleansing and before an anti-aging product or hydrating cream. The same sensoriality of always, Estee Lauder makeup with fluid and light texture that penetrates quickly into the skin, the formula acts on the luminosity, wrinkles, firmness, uniformity and texture. With 7 pre and probiotic ingredients, this care allows the active recovery of the microbiome of the skin, so that it be able to defend itself from biological aging and external aggressions. This powerful anti-aging serum improves radiance, elasticity, firmness, skin tone, and smoothness.
A potent anti-ageing serum that harnesses the anti-inflammatory properties of gold to repair, contour and lift the skin. Developed specifically for night-time, when skin is most receptive to healing, it works in three stages to resurface wrinkles, repair and strengthen, and hydrate and nourish, so you wake to a glowing complexion. Overall, I think this Lancôme Advanced Génifique Serum is a really nice serum that pretty much anyone could use.
