Treatments -Avene - Eluage Cream 30 ml
mihailo1980 6/16/2012 6:17:00 AM
The product is very mild. Too mild. It does nothing. Typical OTC strength, very safe and it that does less than having no cream on at all. I am 32 by the way and I have normal skin which gets slightly oily during summer months. With some Roc creams I used to get immediate results (unfortunately, those products are discontinued for some reason and I still can't believe it, but... ...whatever). 'Eluage' is very thick, but it will not clog pores, don't worry, but it just doesn't moisturize enough and it does not deliver the cell renewal, plumping, smoothing and what not that the company promises. No more experiments, I will stick to Caudalie - 'Cell Renewal Night Cream', Roc 'Multi Corexion Serum' and Differin from tome to time.

Every morning when I get out of bed I think to myself 'God, thank you for this product'. Last couple of weeks I even wash my hair with it. No scent (I'll use my cologne when i feel like smelling), very few preservatives, very moisturizing BUT it leaves no residue (I will put on my body milk if I feel my skin is drying out, thank you), I mean - it's perfect.

Treatments -SkinMedica - RETINOL COMPLEX

Nothing special. Even after using it for two months I noticed almost nothing. A lot of parabens and preservatives lurking, so all together it is not worth it... ...oh - one more thing: it's pricey, given the results it provides.

I witnessed a miracle with this product, I swear. This cream somehow instantly tightens the skin and it stays that way. Persistent red acne marks are gone, all the fine lines are filled and my skin is thicker. I could star in a commercial for a face cream and wouldn't need much make-up. At night I use either Caudalie Cell Renewal, Differin or nothing. Packaging is awful. The plastic is cheap and I can clearly smell the cream through the tube. All of their products have bad packaging. A potential minus would also be the amount of parabens, but I don't care as long as I love my face.

Liquid -Bourjois - Flower Perfection Youth Extension Foundation

I use it as a concealer and to brighten up the area around the eyes (shade 52). Coverage is amazing, but it's not good for larger regions, let alone the whole face, do not even go there. I apply it with a moist cotton swab after I moistruized my face. It does not work for dry skin. A really great conceler. A tricky foundation though.

I really did not want to share my thoughts about dermarolling until I was sure the results my doctor and achieved were permanent. It's been a while since a had the treatment and now I can say that the improvement is permanent! I am aware of the fact it does not work for everybody, but for me - it made a huge difference. The needles my doctor used were 1.5mm long. update #1: Shallow acne scars are gone. I can't find them even with a magnifying glass. A chickenpox scar on my forehead improved by 70%. Some doctors say dermarolling creates scars and that it's really bad for your skin, but it worked for me and my skin is amazing.I had 5 sessions all together and do not need more treatments. I am glad I chose this over Fraxel.

Treatments -RoC - Multi Correxion Skin Renewing Serum

1) Firms the skin immediately; 2) Manages imperfections (spots and old acne traces are diminished after the very first application, small acne scars are plumped and filled); 3) Evens out the skin tone - skin is literally GLOWING; 4) Keeps the skin moist and nourished for 24 hours; 5) Renews the skin (dead cells can no longer clog pores or hinder the cell renewal);
