The Lancome Lancome makeup Youth Activating Cream Serum is a great product to add to your skincare routine. It is product you can use during the day and night routine. I have received a couple of these as sample from Lancome when I make a purchase online. I usually use it at night after cleansing and toning and then follow it with an eye treatment and a moisturizer. It helps your skin have an overall healthy, even look and helps to diminish wrinkles. It is a very light serum and absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy, heavy feeling afterward.
Four probiotic fractions derived from three strains of bacteria and one yeast are also added to further support the microbiome. In addition, the serum contains hyaluronic acid to increase skin hydration. Unfortunately, the Advanced Génifique formulation contains both drying alcohol and dimethicone , which are two ingredients I try to avoid due to their questionable effects on the skin. I know there are many differing opinions on their usage but I personally try to steer clear. Lancome Genifique Youth Activating Cream Serum is a very expensive product for the small amount that you get in the bottle.
It could be that my skin took what it needed and then adapted back to its own state of normalcy. 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 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. I guess it only takes seven days for my skin to develop a superiority complex.
It immediately absorbed into my skin without any leftover oiliness or residue. To use, I gently applied the serum onto my cleansed face Lancome makeup and neck, morning and night. The self-loading dropper was super helpful because it provides the perfect amount of product every time.
Complete your skincare routine by boosting your skin hydration with your favorite face moisturizer. Our patented self-loading dropper, delivers the perfect amount of génifique’s light-weight, fast-absorbing texture to skin. But improved radiance was always going to be a challenge, considering that the seven-day period coincided with my birthday, which I celebrated outdoors with vats of pink Champagne, too many mango margaritas and too few dainty canapés.
With a lightweight consistency similar to that of the Advanced Génifique Youth Activating Serum, the Light-Pearl Serum is formulated with probiotics from yeast and bacteria. Additionally, the formulation contains escin , adenosine , and caffeine to depuff eye bags and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Unfortunately, this eye serum also contains alcohol and dimethicone. In fact, four different types of silicone are used in the serum! This undoubtedly creates the illusion of a smoother under eye area but it may also interfere with makeup application and lead to patching and pilling. Overall, this is a nice lightweight eye serum with some potent depuffing ingredients.
