REVIEW Lotus Professional PHYTORx Intensive Repair Anti-ageing serum

RATING :- 6 OUT OF 10

Hello girls, i am back after a long time and today i am going to write about the Lotus Professional Intensive Repair Anti-Ageing Serum. This comes in a pack of 30 ml and costs INR Rs 745. The container is made up of glass with plastic cap and pump. It has got a pump dispenser.

What Lotus claims about the Lotus Professional Intensive Repair Anti-Ageing Serum? : PHYTORx Intensive Repair Anti-ageing serum is a concentrated blend of Ginger, Ginseng & Whey Protein extracts.
It helps stimulate skin-firming collagen to improve suppleness and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Active Organic Ingredients :
Ginseng : Fight wrinkles and boosts skin-firming collagen.
Ginger : Antioxidant, improves elasticity of the skin
Whey Protein : Boosts collagen, effectively reduces wrinkle depth

Directions :- Every morning & evening after cleansing with PHYTORx Skin Smoothing Anti-Ageing Face wash, apply all over face and neck in conjunction with PHYTORx Skin Firming Anti-Ageing Creme/Skin Renewing Anti-Ageing Night Creme.

Now let me write something about what i felt after using the Lotus PHYTORx Intensive Repair Anti-ageing serum. This is an okayish product, works well to moisturize the skin and may be brighten the face a little bit. I cannot comment on the anti-ageing properties as i really did not see any noticeable difference in the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. So, i will not be definitely buying the product again, however this one is a good product if you just have a tad bit of fine lines and mainly looking for something to moisturize.

Lotus PHYTORx Intensive Repair Anti-ageing serum's consistency is gel like, clear with no color. Got a slight smell which would be a bit similar to aloe vera gel. The consistency is a bit thick. So may not be suitable for oily skin. However, works fine on normal to dry skin.

Kiehl's Powerful Wrinkle & Pore Reducing Cream Review

RATING :- 8 OUT OF 10

Today i am going to review the Kiehl's Powerful Wrinkle & Pore Reducing Cream. It comes in a package of 50 ml and costs INR Rs 3800. The container is made up of plastic, and is brownish in color. The smell is awful.

What Kiehl's claims about the Kiehl's Powerful Wrinkle & Pore Reducing Cream ? :Our visibly reparative treatment is formulated with Copper PCA and Calcium PCA to help strengthen skin's elasticity, an important factor to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and help resist new ones. The result is a smoother skin surface, refined texture and visibly minimized pores.

Ingredients : Water, Cyclohexasiloxane, Glycerin, Prunus Ameriaca Kernel Oil, Cetyl.

So i gave this Kiehl's Powerful Wrinkle & Pore Reducing Cream to one of my relatives to try out and let me know the results. Have been using since almost a month now, this one really lasts long, considering she is applying it once a day everyday. The product is creamy in texture, yellowish white color, and smells weird and awful, the reason may be due to the presence of Apricot Kernel Oil. The smell however goes away soon. I wont say this Kiehl's anti-wrinkle cream would be great on oily skin, but perfect for dry to normal or combination skin. It absorbs well, and is not oily, however you wont get a feeling like totally non-greasy after applying this. There is no shine or anything. And the cream is kind of heavy. Usually, it is applied and kept overnight. I must also say, there were open big pores on the skin, like on the cheeks and nose, which drastically were reduced in sized after using this cream.

Now talking about the results, Kiehl's Powerful Wrinkle & Pore Reducing Cream has definitely made the skin texture look much smoother and fresh, creating a younger youthful appearance. One should note that this is not for anti-wrinkles, like it wont stop wrinkles from coming and forming on the skin, but the appearance of the wrinkles on the skin decreases. I must also say, there were open big pores on the skin, like on the cheeks and nose, which drastically were reduced in sized after using this cream. Overall, comparing the results with the price, i would say i am not totally disappointed and might repurchase. So, you can definitely go and check this out for yourself, if you are above 40s and need something good for your skin without burning a big hole in your pocket.

Review of Clinique Repairwear Laser Focus Wrinkle & UV Damage Corrector

RATING :- NULL/DISAPPOINTED

I just bought the Clinique Repairwear Laser Focus serum last month and have given this to someone to try this out for 4 weeks and let me know the results for review purpose. This costs around INR Rs 4,000 if bought online, price might be cheaper if you get it in a local store, however i usually buy stuffs online, and this was no exception. It contains 30 ml of the product. Comes in a neat packaging. The outer packaging is light green in color and the bottle is made up of plastic with dropper system, white in color.

What Clinique claims about the Clinique Repairwear Laser Focus ? : Allergy Tested.

100% Fragrance Free.

U.S. and International Patented Technology.

It is not a laser, but try explaining that to your skin. Based on decades of scientific research, this potent serum enlists peptides to visibly help repair lines and wrinkles, the 'solar scars' that are the visible proof of collagen loss from UV damage.

Results are not identical to a laser. But you will see striking visible reduction of lines and wrinkles in just 4 weeks. Apply 3-4 drops twice a day to face, and around eyes.

Ingredients : Water, Dimethicone, Butylene Glycol, Polysorbate 20, Vinyl Dimethicone, Glycerin, Silica, Polysilicone 11, Sea Whip Extract, Whey Protein, Caffeine, Citric Acid, Sodium Hyaluronate, PEG-8, Phenoxyethanol, Linoleic Acid etc.

Clinique Repairwear Laser Focus Wrinkle & UV damage corrector is suitable for all skin types. The product is white in color and got a creamy formulation however absorbs onto the skin real fast. No fragrance as it has been mentioned. The dropper does not work well so it is not easy to use and gets messy. I dont think this is travel-friendly packaging, however never tried carrying though so cant comment. A few drops is enough to cover the entire face.

Initially after using the Clinique Repairwear Laser Focus Wrinkle & UV damage corrector i could see the facial skin got much better, clean and brighter than before. There was a certain glow. However, till now i have not seen any effectiveness on the fine lines, wrinkles as has been mentioned that there will be visible reduction in lines. The product is quite expensive and fails to impress. Not happy, definitely wont repurchase.

I have read a lot of good reviews about the Clinique Repairwear Laser Focus from other beauty bloggers but i guess this is a major fail in my book. You might like to try this out if you are just in your thirties and just started seeing a line here and there. Might help. For older matured people with real 'wrinkles' this product just cant work on.

REVIEW of Bottega Di Lungavita Vita Age Innovation Anti-Wrinkle Eyes

RATING :- 3 OUT OF 10

This anti-wrinkle cream-gel has been lying in my desk for a while now, empty and i could not review this until today. The Vita Age Innovation Anti-wrinkle Eyes is from the brand Bottega Di Lungavita. It contains 15 ml of the product and costs around INR Rs 1500, i got this online. Dont know if you can get it in local stores in India. It comes in a plastic tube as you can see in the picture and has a nozzle, so definitely this product is travel-friendly and quite handy so you can carry it in your purse itself or vanity bag.

What Bottega Di Lungavita claims about the Bottega Di Lungavita Vita Age Innovation Anti-Wrinkle Eyes ? : An intensive treatment for the area around the eyes, which is formulated with a light texture that allows it to be used both night and day, with no greasy residue.

Its natural active ingredients intervene effectively to reduce fine wrinkles and expression lines around the eyes, providing softness and elasticity to this delicate area of the face.

The presence of Witch Hazel and Mallow extract make this cream-gel particularly recommended for decongesting and refreshing the eye area of people with delicate skin.

How to apply? : Dab on delicately morning and evening to the area around the eyes. Starting from the cheek-bones, spread the cream towards the temples and the arches of the eyebrows. Since it is non-greasy, makeup can be applied immediately afterwards.

Ingredients : Vegetable ceramides, Vitamin A & E, Hyaluronic Acid, Mallow Extract, Escin etc

One tube of Bottega Di Lungavita Vita Age Innovation Anti-Wrinkle Eyes lasts more than 30 days, you need very little amount of it. Though the company claims it to be cream-gel, i find it to be more like a serum or a bit creamy, but wont call it a gel formulation. The product is white in color and absorbs well into the skin. It does not leave a greasy residue as has been mentioned. Does not have any smell. But coming to the effectiveness of the product, i would say i am unhappy. I did not really have great expectations for a product being sold at quite a cheap price, but then this is just like a serum okay for maintenance. If you are looking for something which works on the lines and wrinkles and reduces them, dont go for this.

Definitely i am not going to repurchase this Bottega Di Lungavita Vita Age Innovation Anti-Wrinkle Eyes as i find this is to be providing just some sort of moisturization for the skin. Does not help at all with wrinkles and lines.

Coming to the results dont know about the reduction of wrinkles and fine lines, however skin got definitely smoother and brighter as has been claimed. You can definitely use this as a good moisturizer or night cream and get better skin tone. If you are expecting this to work on wrinkles and fine lines, you may not be happy!
