this is a really nice cream, very light weight, very moisturising, sits nicely on the skin without feeling heavy, soaks in nicely too. my skin has been a lot better since using this, very soft. i do find it a bit greasy though, but thats the only thing i dislike about it.

I keep coming back to this because it is pretty good for te price. It absorbs quite well and firms the skin nicely and it feels soft in the morning. I have normal combo skin but think it is probably not moisturizing enough for drier skins

I've used different night creams and this one gathered compliments on the condition of my skin after a short period using it. I didn't notice a smell and thought it was rich without being greasy. I have dry skin and this helped noticeably.

Love this product. After using the expensive brands I finally found one that won't break the bank. I have seen a definite improvement in diminishing the size of fine lines I have begun to develop around my eyebrows and forehead area. I wake in the morning to soft, vibrant skin. It has yet to break me out as well.
I will for sure be using this product from now on.

The retinol in this cream makes my skin tingle but in the morning my face feels very smooth and polished. I have very oily skin so the moisturizing aspect isn't important to me. I'm looking for a product to diminish the appearance of lines. This product isn't especially greasy and I haven't had any breakouts with it. Haven't noticed my fine lines look any better but the retinol does seem to work well to polish the skin and remove dead cells. The fragrance doesn't bother me at all; I find it quite neutral. Don't care for the heavy jar it comes in since it's impractical for packing in a suitcase. I'm always surprised to read reviews at Makeupalley for wrinkle creams written by women as young as 24-25; generally negative reviews. Women at that age don't need these products and of course they don't do anything for them.

I've been using this night creme for a couple of years now. It's very hydrating without being greasy. It soaks right into my skin. It's also very affordable, I think it's around $16 but I always get it on sale, so I pay something like $12 for it. It's really good though, so I would pay the $16 if I needed it & couldn't find it on sale!

This is the one I keep going back to for my night cream. Have tried many other retinol night creams but this is the one that doesn't break me out and leaves my skin feeling great in the morning. It's not too heavy, but too heavy for a day cream imo.
Not sure that it provides any amazing effects in terms of minimizing wrinkles, but I do notice that my sleep creases seem less obvious/deep in the morning if I use this.

This review is for the Skin Expertise Revitalift Complete Night Cream. I think it is the same product as the "Dermo Expertise" --they just changed the wording. The jar and labeling look the same to me. Anyway, I like this cream. It is rich without being overly greasy. It does have a mild scent, which I took one lippie away for, but it fades pretty quickly. No complaints from my DH, who has a sensitive nose! This cream moisturizes well, doesn't break me out or cause irritation. I am 44 and felt I needed a little extra than a regular night cream. When the jar is finished I will reevaluate and see if the supposed retinol really did anything. Right now I am satisfied with it. Classy packaging, great price (on sale for 11.99).

I bought the whole line of Revitalift products, with the exception of the serum, for just over $40. So far everything is working as well as high-end lines I have paid FAR more money for--and the packaging and luxurious feel of the products satisfies my need for elegance in my beauty routine. I am really impressed thus far!

This product saved my dry winter skin. My skin really looked bad, dry, flakey, and dehydraded. I had this already and out of desperation I put it on my face before bed and in the morning viola! no more dried out skin! I love it. I must say at first it casued a few small bumps on my cheeks but that has cleared. I would buy this product again.

This is supposed to be a night cream but I use it as a day cream. It's very light for a night cream but it is very greasy and doesn't absorb very easily, so I always have to blot off the excess. I got it a long time ago and only started using it in the past few months. I don't remember what I paid but since it's from Loreal I'm sure it's quite affordable. I will not buy it again though because I'm looking for a good night cream that's far more moisturizing.

I received a sample of this product. It wasn't moisturizing enough for my very dry skin, but it didn't irritate as many moisturizers do.

What I really dislike about this cream is the very strong fragrance. I don't know why fragrance needs to be added to face cream, since it's a major sensitizer.

Doesn't really do much. I just use it for a moisturizer. I wouldn't recommend it for any skin type as it is a light moisturizer, but doesn't deeply moisturize it well. Better for young skin. It's pretty much the same as the pro-calcium one.

I like this pretty much as a moisturizer at night.My skin gets pretty dry and this stuff makes my skin feel smooth and soft! And thats about it....Good for use in the cold and drier months not in the summer cuz its kinda heavy imo. A good moisturizer and nothing more imo...

Update: I started getting little white bumps all over my face. I don't know if it's the result of this product or another product that I just started using at the same time (Neutrogena spf 45 heliplex health defense lotion)... but nonetheless, the little whiteheads all over my face may be caused by this product. Plus, the strong artificial smell/scent and the fact that it stings my eyes can only mean that it can't be all that good for skin!

I do not like the smell. The product is extremely thick and has a strong scent. It leaves a film of cream on my face before I go to sleep. When I wake up, the film of cream is gone. It's okay. I suppose it moisturizes. I mean, I can't say that it doesn't moisturize or that it dries out my skin... because it sure doesn't dry out my skin. But, I'm not a huge fan of the heavy perfume-like scent and the fact that it doesn't absorb very easily into my skin, hence the layer of cream on skin before bed. Overall, I'm probably going to try other brands to see if there are other products that absorb easier into my skin, has less of strong artificial scent, and just feel more comfortable on my skin.

Okay, I really love this cream. I've gone through pretty much every drugstore cream I can find with retinol in it because I want a retinol cream but am not ready to take it to a prescription level yet. I haven't really had any problems with the other creams, but I don't know that they were doing anything, either--that is why I kept switching brands. This cream is slightly thick, white, and doesn't smell like anything to me. When I opened the jar and saw how thick the product was, I really thought it would probably break me out, especially because I already had a pretty bad breakout of cystic acne when I began using this product. My skin cleared up very quickly after I started using this cream, though. I don't know if the Revitalift cleared up my skin, but I do know that my skin looks great lately. It looks clear and--yes--glowy. I haven't changed anything else with my skincare or makeup or anything else in my life lately, so I think it actually could be this product (I've never had a skincare product improve my skin this way--usually I just try to find something that won't break me out or make me too oily or too dry). I'll keep using this until it stops working.

This cream is a disappointment. Packaging is nice and presentable and I love having it on display in my bathroom but the product is useless. The cream takes a while to absorb and it leaves a fine film of residue on my face -- I feel it come off when I wash my face in the morning. After about a week of using this, my forehead broke out in tiny whiteheads. Lucky for me, I got this on sale for $8 so not a huge loss here. Obviously I will not repurchase. In fact, I will stay away from L'oreal entirely for a while, as this is not the first time that their beauty products have irritated my skin. I'm going back to Olay Regenerist Continuous Night Recovery Moisturizing Treatment.

The product packaging is quite pretty, but is not an anti-wrinkle product at all. I use it at night before I sleep on my neck, face and chest area. The product takes super long to absorb and smells a little weird, but not to the point where you can't stand it. I'm usually in too much of a rush in the mornings to notice if it absorbs well or not...

I happened to use this product a week whilst staying at my BF's place. I do not find it too oily , as I have dehydrated skin, but at the end of the week, I find tiny bumps on my cheeks (I have combi skin). Definitely a sign that the product is too rich for me, even for my dry cheek area. There's also increase in tiny bumps on my forehead and chin, and I have to start with acne treatment for the next few days, I guess.

I don't find it good nor give me any glow the next day either. Won't purchase again.

I'm surprised by all of the negative reviews. I actually really like this night cream. it's true, the scent isn't totally appealing, but it just smells like cold cream which isn't the worst thing in the world. I also have to agree that it does feel a bit greasy for a while after you put it on. BUT, I can't argue with how great my skin looks after a week or so of use. I went in search of something with retinol (didn't much have the inclination to go to the derm to get a RX for retinoids). This was the only moisturizer on the shelf that had it aside from Neutrogena which I've never had good luck with, so I grabbed it. I've been using it every night and when I wake up in the morning my skin is super soft. My blemishes have started to clear up and my face looks a bit brighter. It's not a miracle product (what is, after all?), but I've seen a noticeable improvement. I haven't even had to wear foundation the last few days. For $15, I'm fully satisfied with this product.
