I am 50 years old and I see a difference with this product! I also DO NOT have any wrinkles or signs of aging since I have been using Lancome loyally since I was in my teens. I think the most difference I noticed is in the texture-pore size and definite lightening of the few age spots I had. I have been using this now for almost 3 yrs. I do use their entire line so maybe that makes a difference too. People say I look 30 which is good thing since my husband is 31!

[misskilakilastar]

@2katsmom Lancome products don't really work on me in general. That maybe why I stopped using this product after just 1 bottle of try. The only product that worked really well for me was the Bright Expert dark spot corrector. But that's just me. Everyone's different. So, I'm glad that the Lancome Genifique line has been working really well for you! Cheers! =)

[SparingPolymath]

The Genifique cream was repackaged in a glass pump bottle similar to the serum. Is it interesting that Lancome's mother company, L'oreal, released a serum with its new Youth Code line for general drugstores earlier this year with a virtually identical chemical formulation? Great review, KK. My thoughts exactly. Cheers.

@SparingPolymath Thanks! ^ ^

[misskilakilastar]

@77AWAKE77 You're welcome ^ ^

[Peppercornification]

I super love Lancome GENIFIQUE Youth Activating Concentrate I think it's better than the serum... :)

[kokolaroo]

Wonderfully informative review KK! By the by I have really been enjoying testing out all the lippies you sent...SO much fun! There have been a few surprises. Looking forward to sharing them in a vid.....thanks so much again ;-))))

[misskilakilastar]

@kokolaroo I'm so glad that you're enjoying playing with them =) Surprises? Oh I can not wait to hear them!!! Looking forward to your new videos! ^_~

[ANITAWHOO]

I love your review! It was very informational and it just definitely helped a lot!

[misskilakilastar]

@ANITAWHOO Thank-you! I'm glad you find it helpful ;-)

[misskilakilastar]

@CosmeticCat No prob. I can't agree more ;-)

[misskilakilastar]

@x0minou0x Thank-you! ^ ^

[001pegasus1]

Agree that the activator offers limited performance. I would recommend Cosme De Corte Moisture liposome for better performance which helps you skin the absorb products better, time release moisturising functions. After 1 week of use, my skin is significantly more supple, radiant and even toned.

[misskilakilastar]

@001pegasus1 I've never tried that brand before....would love it try it out someday thanks for the info. ^ ^

[PIRD]

love the ending

[misskilakilastar]

@PIRD hahaha...xD

[NicolePangYS]

honest opinion

subbed !!!!!

[misskilakilastar]

@NicolePangYS Thank-you! ^ ^

[xchinagirlx]

thks for the review! is the clarins serum better than lancomes one? wat age should you start usin serum?

[misskilakilastar]

@xchinagirlx The functions of the two serums are quite different...Lancome's Genifique serum is an anti-aging serum and the Clarins serum is a hydrating serum. In my opinion you can start using a serum whenever your skin needs one (sometimes just lotion or cream is not enough)...so there's no age limit....just listen to what your skin tells you. In my opinion keeping your skin hydrated at all times is the key to prevent fine lines...and of course sun screen is a must rain or shine =)

[yc70jade]

great review! ^.^ i am tempted to use the Clarins serum u r using ~.~ Currently I am using Guerlain's Super Aqua Serum, it is super moisturising but again...pricey! is there a good eye cream you'd recommend? thnx :D

[misskilakilastar]

@yc70jade I would recommend Sisley's Eye and Lip Contour Cream for very dry skin...pricey but works really well to treat signs of aging. Also like Shiseido's Bio-Performance Super Eye Contour Cream...very nicely packaged with a pump. My drug store favorite is from Roc...however my favorite eye cream was discontinued...but the one I'm currently using is Multi Correxion Anti-Aging Eye cream which is pretty good. =)

[fuzkittie]

hahah love the ending! very honest and thorough reviews~

[misskilakilastar]

@fuzkittie haha..thanks! ^ ^

[L4LA]

can u please recommend an alternative for the serum? I am in my early 20s.

[misskilakilastar]

@L4LA what's your skin type?

[L4LA]

@misskilakilastar combination - oily t-zone

[misskilakilastar]

@L4LA Advanced Night Repair from Estee Lauder is good for anti-aging =)

[L4LA]

@misskilakilastar i do use that at night. i was lookign for something to use during the day.. does it matter?

[misskilakilastar]

@L4LA I have combination skin too and I'm using SkinCeutical's Phloretin CF so far so good =)

[AsianPandaFreak]
