OK, now onto skin care.
Looking for a new product to use on my skin, I approached the super friendly skin care expert, Robin, who works at Edgars.
What I was looking for:
Something to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and give my skin and over all better appearance.
What she sold me:
Lancome Genefique
At R500 a little bottle, this product is quite pricey and I was very sceptical. It is highly concentrated, and a little goes a long way.
Robin promised me that within in ten days I would see visible results.
So, for ten days I actually managed to take photos of myself. And documented the results. You can decide for yourself.
(These pics were taken first thing in the morning, with NO MAKEUP) Eeeek!
Conclusion:
I definately did see visible results with this product.
The overall appearance of my skin improved, getting an inner "glow". The tone also improved. HOWEVER. I did not see any improvement of fine lines.
I spotted the rep for this product in store and asked her a couple of questions.
She said that this product will lessen the signs of fine lines, but should be used in conjunction with the eye-serum, as well as another product. At R500 each, that totals R1500 for the skin care products. Which may last up to three months.
Personally, I can't imagine that these products would actually make the fine lines disappear, so would stick to ONLY this serum (gives a good glow) and use a filler or botox for the wrinkles. Sorry if thats an unorthodox response, but they WORK. 100% guaranteed. I still have to try a chemical peel. Believe the outcome is also fantastic.
Will keep you posted!
