Is aging skin one of your skin concerns? But do you know what are the signs of aging skin? If you felt your skin is losing plumpness, looking more dehydrated than usual - that could be one telling sign that you need to start anti-aging skincare!
Prevention is always better than cure. The short-term "cures" that people nowadays go for are aesthetic procedures that include botox & filler injections, laser treatment, light therapy, etc. If you are one of the many who are contemplating any aesthetic procedure to achieve better skin, you may want to halt a bit first - this post may be of interest to you!
This month (Feb/March '16), L'oreal Paris launches their latest range of anti-aging skincare Revitalift Filler [HA]. This is the first skincare line inspired by hyaluronic acid filler injections. Targeted at correcting skin volume loss, Revitalift Filler [HA] contains the highest Hyaluronic Acid concentration ever in a L'Oreal Paris skincare, and also one of the highest in the market. What a breakthrough for L'oreal!
Product Line Claims:
- Smoothen Forehead Lines
- Plump Up Cheeks
- Smoothen Laugh Lines
- Plump Up Chin for V-Shape
Unique Ingredients Behind the Science of "Fillers"
Mircometric Hyaluronic Acid - Microsized HA, unlike normal HA. Small enough to penetrate the skin barrier and reach the dermis to volumise the skin
Fibroxyl - natural botanical extract, anti-wrinkle and firming active ingredient. Able to stimulate fibroblasts, thus delivering the collagen production.
After testing for about two weeks, I decide to review both the products in the L'Oreal Paris Revitalift Filler [HA] line - Micro Volumizing Essence and Revolumizing Cushion Cream.
L'Oreal Paris Revitalift Filler [HA]
Micro Volumizing Essence
1st "Water Radiance" essence containing 50 X more HA concentration to replenish moisture and voluminize the skin's surface layers.
A revolutionary airless dropper which mimicks the look of a syringe - it dispenses just the optimal amount of ultra-concentrated essence and is used on targeted areas such as cheeks, chin, forehead lines and laugh lines.

MY THOUGHTS
Packaging: Haven't seen anything like that, seriously. Although it's gimmicky, but I grown fond of it because the dropper works so well to dispense the exact amount my face need - 2 drops each morning/night.
Texture: Velvety, non-greasy gel-like substance that smooths on the skin in one swipe motion. Subtle silicon-feel coating on the skin yet super lightweight due to its rapid absorption rate.
Effectiveness: Skin is coated with a layer of barrier that helps to moisturize and plump up skin. Effects of smoothening and hydration are immediately seen. No reduction of lines/wrinkles after two weeks trial though. Just smoother & firmer skin upon product application. When product is not on skin, no visible marked improvements shown on the skin too. (2 weeks may not be sufficient to conclude its results, or lack of.)
Scent: Feminine, powdery-fresh and pleasant smell.
Price: S$49.90
PRODUCT RATING:
L'Oreal Paris Revitalift Filler [HA]
Revolumizing Cushion Cream
Through the use of surface-active elastomere formulation, Revolumizing Cushion Cream has a high-tech cushion formula with no oily or sticky after-feel.

MY THOUGHTS
Packaging: Elegant, beautiful metallic purple jar. Would be better ( and more hygienic) if spatula was provided.
Texture: Similar to the essence, this cream also has a velvety, non-greasy texture; albeit a little thicker than the essence, obviously. Heavier-laden with silicones, so a little product goes a long way. Not recommended for combination/oily skin types as a daily moisturiser.
Effectiveness: Visibily soft and plumpy cushion effect on skin. Instant moisturising effect to the skin. But I haven't use it long enough to witness filling out of fine lines/wrinkles. Skin does look firmer, rounder and smoother when I am wearing this moisturizer. However, after taking off the product on my skin, my skin feels as per normal - no visible improvements in plumpness or fine lines reduction.
Scent: Feminine, powdery-fresh and pleasant smell.
Price: S$45.90
