Hi! Today I have a short review on Lancome Advanced Genifique Youth Activating Serum & eye cream. I am so into anti aging creams and serums, that if a product claims anything anti-aging or firming skin I am in. Besides I don’t feel odd to say that I am addicted to anti-aging skincare and will try anything for a more youthful looking skin. Here is another anti-aging serum that I want to talk about. Both Lancome Advanced Genifique youth activating serum and eye cream were a gift from my husband.
Product Description – A fast-acting anti-aging serum that reveals smoother, more radiant skin in as few as seven days. This powerful anti-aging serum works to improve skin’s key signs of youth: radiance, elasticity, firmness, skin tone, and smoothness. This patented formula, with bifidus extract, helps strengthen skin’s moisture barrier.
Lancôme Génifique is an anti-aging serum that that will help improve the texture, radiance and elasticity of the skin. It will help with the firmness of the skin and help reduce the look of fine line and wrinkles. The Génifique line also includes an eye cream, eye serum and masks. But I have the serum and the eye cream to review.
The packaging of Lancome Advanced Genifique Youth activating serum elegant and luxurious. The gradient glass bottle and a self- loading dropper is absolutely beautiful. This is the first time I tried something so pretty and unique. I specifically love the auto-filling dropper. Even the little jar of eye cream is super cute and luxe.
The texture and consistency of the serum is translucent and watery. The light weight texture absorbs quickly into the skin. It has a mild fragrance but nothing too over powering. While the consistency of the eye cream is a light weight and gel like creamy texture which is not greasy or oily. It feel nourishing and cooling when I apply.
The formula is patented with the key ingredient bifidus extract that helps to protect and create a moisture barrier on the skin. Studies suggest bifidus extract is a probiotic loaded with antioxidant and helps to prevent sun damage. The other key ingredients are hyaluronic acid, glycerin, the star ingredients that hydrate the skin making it more plump and radiant. Dimethicone is common in skincare that helps to glide the product smoothly and lock in all the moisture, while giving a smooth appearance.
This serum is very light weight and absorbs into the skin easily. After application it feels a little sticky but then its gone in a few seconds. It feels as if nothing is on the skin and I love that light feeling – no greasiness or heaviness or oily residue. If we use too much it may feel sticky but very little goes a long way. This bottle will last a long time. It feels good on the skin and helps with balancing the texture, fine lines and uneven skintone.
I have been using the duo for the past month and love it. I use it in the morning and before going to bed. There is a huge improvement in the texture of my skin. It is smoother and more radiant looking. My dark eye area is a little brighter and well hydrated. This eye cream worked well to brighten the under eye area and reduce puffiness. The serum feels nourishing and hydrating. Every morning I wake up to a more brighter and radiant looking skin.
Overall, I am happy that I tried this new and popular Lancome Advanced Genefique youth activating concentrate and the eye cream. About fine lines and wrinkles it may take some more time to see the results. But so far I am happy as my fine lines and wrinkles are softer and my skin feels smooth and plump. I am pretty happy with the results and will continue using it especially for the dark circles around my eyes. It is available in Sephora and also on Amazon. What are your current favorite creams and serums that I should try? 🙂
Until next time stay healthy, bright and beautiful! 🙂
Hi, I have used the Genifique serum for a couple of years with occasional monthly breaks. Always love the dropper, the lightness, that it is a well absorbed serum, post application is a great time to do facial exercises or a facial massage to make it a treatment. Then add moisturiser cream.
I have just bought the eye cream. Will start it this week.
I loved using it too Judy.:-)
