ifif1938's Full Review: Lancome High Resolution with Collaser 48 Deep Coll...
I guess you could call me a Lancôme groupie, I just cant resist going to their counter whenever Im in Bloomingdales or Macys and by now I know most of the sales reps in that department about 2 weeks ago I specifically went to Bloomies to buy a new jar of Renerge eye cream since I was running low and they had a nifty new Gift with Purchase with any sale over $35..
This gift was a really good one, 3 neat makeup bags and assorted samples of their new face creams, a great eye shadow kit, their new Mascara Hypnose and a lovely shade of lipstick I havent purchased lipstick, mascara or eye shadow in years, thanks to these Gifts
But what really caught my eye and interest was the new HIGH RÉSOLUTION with COLLASER-48 Deep Collagen Anti-Wrinkle Serum anti-wrinkle? Im all for that and couldnt wait to give it a try.
Its said that after the age of 50, due to hormonal changes, the skins aging process accelerates, and the former functions of the skin deteriorate, leaving our largest organ, dryer, with less elasticity...We also lose that most precious collagen in our skin, so beneficial for a smoother looking skin so Lancôme has come up with this new formula, that helps formulate and produce new collagen in the skin in only a 48 hour period, these little lines and wrinkles in our skin will be pushed out and appear firmer as if they were plumped out from within the skin itself...They also state that the effects will be felt immediately with smoother, softer skin and, in just one week, your face will appear younger and more supple, that in just 4 weeks, firmer, with age spots reduced and lines diminished. Sounds good to me.
My experience
That is a tall statement though, but now that Ive used this serum for 2 weeks I can honestly say I do see a slight difference. This deep collagen anti-wrinkle serum seems more like a cream than a serum, it has a thicker texture then other serums Ive tried in my life, so its seems more substantial when applying it. It is completely absorbent almost immediately...Thats important since, according to the directions, you are supposed to use it daily, both morning and night, under your moisturizer in my case my Absolue that I use in the daytime for its SPF 15 sun protection and the Renerge I use at night. Just a little goes a long way, less than half the size of a dime of this serum is enough, just smooth it on your entire face, I use a little extra on the skin around my mouth and the area on the side, between my nose and mouth, and, for good measure on my neck and forehead. Another thing that I like is the fact that there is no heavy scent, actually, hardly any at all.
I do have to agree with the statement about smoothness since my skin does feel smoother with each application and the texture of my face seems to be improving and it does feel very soft to the touch...I even asked my hubby last night if he noticed any difference, he said yes to the soft and smoother aspect of my question, but somewhat avoided the question about the lines...hmmm, what does that say, other than the fact that he would make a good diplomat.
So this morning, after washing my face, I put on my reading glasses and took a very close look at my face in the mirror, both before and after using this product Its been 2 weeks now and I do think my skin looks better, with some improvement but I dont see a huge difference...there definitely was an immediate change after applying the serum to my freshly cleansed skin. I dont know if I imagined it or not but I did see a plumping action on a few of my character lines...that would be the collagen being infused into the skin I guess, but the fact remains that before applying it this morning I didnt see too much of a change in the 2 weeks testing...so I just dont know, what I do know is that I do like the feel of this High Resolution, with Collaser-48 Anti-Wrinkle Serum...I like the fact that its high in Collagen with an overall feeling of smoothness after using it and that its main intense action is to plump out those lines. I think its a quick fix though and Im not sure whether or not your skin will stay corrected if you stop using it. I guess only a face lift will do that, and Im not ready for that yet. So, until then, I will continue using this serum and hope for the best...especially since I have 3 sample tubes of it to continue my experiment with, by the time I'm through with them, I should know whether or not it will be worth it spend $62.00 for the one ounce bottle. Maybe Ill get lucky and get a few more samples.... I will update this review if and when I notice a substantial difference in time to come.
