Skincare Loreal Paris Revitalift Volume Filler Products Review

Mar 21, 2016

Skincare Regimen

Skincare can be expensive and time-consuming however the results are long-term with the right products.   My normal skincare regimen includes washing with a gentle facial cleanser for combination skin, toner with salicylic acid and a moisturizer with sunscreen.   I do wear MAC N9 face and body foundation.  It is a very light formulation and moisturizing.   Because I wear makeup I have to be very diligent with removing each night.  Typically I use makeup remover wipes and then follow-up with my cleanser and toner.  I also use my Clarisonic twice a week for exfoliating.

Recently I started using an anti-aging serum, Avene Retrinal 0.1 Intensive Cream.  This serum is effective with minimizing breakouts, even skin tone and anti-aging due to the retinol derivative.     The cost was a bit pricey at $65 and, of course, being an Amazon fan I found it there for half of the price from the dermatological center.   This product was recommended by my aesthetician I go to for waxing.

Now when it was time to review this product I looking forward to trying something new.    I put using my anti-aging product on hold for 3 weeks.   There is a Revitalift Volume Filler Serum Cleanser, however, this was not part of the review.

After cleansing and toning:

Skincare – Loreal Paris Revitalift

Step 1 – Revitalift Volume Filler Serum

Pros: Easy to dispense from the tube, you can dispense as much or as little as you need to cover your entire face and jawline.   It has a very mild scent.  A little of serum goes a long way so you’re not wasting the product.

Cons: Do not push down on the plunger to avoid wasting.  It’s best to set it flat on a surface.

Step 2-Revitalift Volume Filler Eye Cream

Pros- Easy to dispense from the tube.  You can dispense as little or as much as you need to the eye area.   Mild scent.
Cons- There were none.

Step 3 – Revitalift Volume Filler Moisturizer

Pros-Light with a creamy consistency and very moisturizing.  No sticky residue.   Light scent that reminded me of lavender.  A small amount is needed to cover the entire face.
Cons-No Sunscreen!!!!  I used my regular moisturizer with sunscreen.  Adding another product each morning was time-consuming.

Nighttime Product

Step 4-Revitalift Volume Filler Night Cream

Step 1, 2, and 3

Pros-Light and creamy consistency.    A dime size amount is enough to cover your entire face.  Mild Scent.
Cons-Time consuming for a nighttime skincare routine.

I used the products for 3 weeks.  The best thing about the products was how smooth my skin felt within a few days and my skin was really moisturized.  I also noticed my breakouts were minimized while using the product line.  Fortunately, my skin is not experiencing any visible signs of aging so I cannot speak to the anti-aging properties.     The morning and nighttime regimen was time-consuming with using three and four products.    As an African-American woman, I feel it is necessary to protect my melanin with daily use of sunscreen.   I would definitely reconsider using the moisturizer if sunscreen becomes a part of the formulation.
