L'OREAL Revitalift Laser 3 Serum

Hi guys happy Tuesday! Wow can't believe it's already September. Summer's almost over. It's crazy how time flies! Well I'm actually glad because one, I prefer autumn for many reasons, two I have a lot of exciting blogposts planned for this month so hopefully you would like them. For the first blogpost of September I want to bring you a review of the L'OREAL Revitalift Laser 3 Serum which I think would be perfect to use in autumn days so let's get right into it! 

I have never tried any skincare products from L'OREAL before and to be honest I don't know why I picked this up. It was a total impulse buy. I guess I just wanted to "explore". This serum is targeted for women who are over 40 but like I always say it's better to protect than fix it later plus no skincare products would ever wipe away wrinkles 100% it's no Botox let's face it so any women who are over 25 can use anti aging products just for delaying the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Anyway allow me get straight into the pros and cons. 

You see those tiny shimmers?! 

(Rubbed in). Left: under direct sunlight Right: not under direct sunlight but both look glowy.

Pros: 

1. It is inexpensive. It costs €19 (30ml) from my local supermarket. 

2. The texture is really nice. It is light but feels very moisturizing on my skin. 

3. It has some shimmery particles in it so my skin looks glowing after using it. 

4. Nice pleasant scent. 

5.  It comes with a pump. 

6. Like the semi transparent bottle so I know how much product is still left.

7. My skin looks healthy, smooth, even and plumped.
8. It sits nicely under my foundation, kind of like an illuminating primer if you will. 

Cons:

1. The flowery scent is pretty nice but it is rather strong so it might annoy some of you who are sensitive to scent. 

2. It claims to reduce the appearance of pores but I don't notice anything different in terms of the size my pores and I have been using it for the past 2 weeks. I mean I don't really have large large pores but still I can see them sometimes, maybe I just need to use it for a bit longer but so far I don't notice any difference. 

3. It also says that it would reduce wrinkles. Well I don't have wrinkles yet but I do have a rather deep expression line near my mouth and I didn't see any "disappearance" of my expression line to be quite honest with you.
4. It doesn't contain paraben but it does have some other "unnatural" ingredients such as alcohol, perfume and some other chemicals. Definitely not for someone who likes to use natural products. 

Would I repurchase? NO. But that being said I do enjoy using it just because the texture is really lovely. I actually only use this in the morning and this alone gives me enough moisture I need throughout the day but I might need to layer it with my moisturizer when the weather gets cooler. 

So there you have it. I hope you like the way I review product. I mean I don't like to put down what the web or bottle says I just like to share my own thoughts so hopefully that's what you'd like to see. As always if you have any requests or questions please leave them down below or tweet me @eflicciardello if you prefer. Until next time. Bye! Muahh!
