I remember there was a time when I didn’t want to even go near any ‘anti-aging’ products because of what I thought it implied. Silly me.
The one thing I’ve learned in reviewing beauty products is that they are necessary and they make my skin feel beautiful. Now I welcome them.These moisturizers and facial products are the best things out there to keep your skin young and healthy from years of sun, wind and even makeup if that’s your thing. But there is definitely a difference in quality.
My first question before I even opened the bottle was, ‘What is Matrixyl 3000?’
Upon researching I found out that there are ‘short term’ anti-wrinkle creams and treatments and ‘long term’ creams and treatments. Matrixyl is considered a long-term treatment so, using a product that includes it as an ingredients means that you will see the benefits for a longer period of time. This is a good thing, especially how pricey beauty products can be.
Now on to the price. This bottle can be found for $36.95 on Amazon.com. I’ve said this before that I tend to decide on skincare and beauty products based on how much it will cost me for a month’s supply. This bottle is 1.0 ozs and you’re only using one or two drops so it will last more than one month. That makes it worth the $36 if it is indeed a good product.
So, of course that’s next. How does it feel?
Now that the winter is here, my skin doesn’t have that sunny tanned glow and frankly it’s a bit dry with these horribly cold winds and I don’t wear foundation so, I need every little bit of help I can get.
I washed and applied on my face and neck as they suggested and it felt cool to the skin. I liked the way it felt. My skin felt soft instantly. It does say to keep away from the eyes but, that’s okay. I have the eye serum for that.
My skin feels great. I love how soft it feels to the touch.
The one thing I’m not crazy about is the pump to get the cream out. I always find myself pushing down far too many times before anything comes out. Maybe I’m just impatient but, I always struggle with pumps designed like this one.
The product itself, however is really great and I recommend it especially with these winter storms heading our way. If you’re in a sunny part of the states, ‘well aren’t you the lucky one’. Just kidding. I’m not jealous at all but, this moisturizer is perfect for you to combat the sun. Best of both worlds.
