I am extremely happy with the serum and love the ease of the dropper. It absorbs greatly into your skin and doesn’t leave it feeling greasy. Of course, I say all of this as a person that chiefly deals with dry, dull skin—I’m not sure whether a person with an oily, hydrated complexion would notice the same drastic improvements. But never mind the marketing jargon—flesh-and-blood beauty fanatics across Sephora, Ulta, and the like claim that this serum lives up to the hype. It boasts an impressive 4.4 stars on Sephora, 4.8 at Ulta, and another 4.8 on the Lancôme website, totaling roughly 10,500 positive reviews.
I’m happy to report that the Génifique dropper is perfectly engineered. It even makes a satisfying click when you twist the cap closed—a genius way to make sure your pricey serum is properly sealed after each use. I’m not a fan of heavily scented Lancome makeup products, and luckily, this one doesn’t smell like much at all. My skincare regimen is never complicated, but I kept things even more minimal than usual during the seven-day trial, only using cleanser and SPF in addition to Génifique.
This leads to an initial plumping look, which convinces customers that they are using a quality product. Lancôme Génifique skincare products are priced in line with department store finds. Advanced Génifique Youth Activating Serum starts at $52 for a .67ml bottle while the 3.4oz bottle retails for $178. Advanced Génifique Yeux Eye Cream – This eye cream has a gel-like texture and is formulated to improve the look of dark circles while hydrating the eye area. To use, I gently applied the serum onto my cleansed face and neck, morning and night.
Absorption Once applied to your skin the product absorbs quickly. You can apply the rest of your beauty products without any sticky Estee Lauder NIGHT REPAIR or tacky feeling. Doesn’t Clog Pores Since using this product I have not had any issues with breakouts or clogged pores.
The concentrate’s smooth, lightweight formula penetrates quickly and easily, so it plays well with others. Products are sold individually as well as in kits. A fast-acting anti-aging serum that reveals smoother, more radiant skin in as few as seven days. This patented formula, which contains bifidus extract, helps strengthen, and protect skins moisture barrier. The Blue Therapy Accelerated Repairing Serum features the Algae of Youth™ blend, formulated to combat the three most visible signs of aging—wrinkles, dark spots, and loss of firmness and elasticity.
I guess it only takes seven days for my skin to develop a superiority complex. If a sense of mystery is attractive in a woman, my skin is basically Carmen Sandiego after using this serum for one week. I’m not too fussy about retinol or Botox yet, but I am on a multi-step program in my skin-care routine. Double-cleansing, toner, moisturizer, and sunscreen are always in the mix, but I’ll often go rogue with serums and treatments — the entire goal of which being to be carded well into my 40s.
It is a great perfume for nighttime and for spraying on leather (coats, jackets,… Burberry Brit is a nonchalant Eau de Toilette for men. Right from the packaging, to the notes and the feel of the fragrance, it embodies the tradition and laidback spirit of the English.
I understand why Lancôme offers so many size options for this serum on its website. There are five sizes to choose from, in varying price points — I can’t think of any other skin-care brands that would bother divvying up one product into Lancome makeup five different size options. So you’ve got options beyond wearing a rotating set of disguises to cop multiple free samples at the Lancôme counter. My skin suddenly had the smug confidence of someone with a winning hand in poker.
