L’Oreal Paris Skin Perfect Cream for 30+

Hah! It has been over two months since I have been using the product. And, it is time to give an update. Though, I have covered most of the things in the extended review I did on the product almost a month back, there are just a few things I would like to cover.

Usage

In the last post, if you recall or have read it again, I have mentioned that I could not really figure out how to use the product. So, finally, I figured it out after lots of trials and errors.

Spot apply mustard-seed size product all over your face – forehead, nose, cheeks, chin. And, spread it evenly on the face. That’s it! Most likely you would NOT need more of the product. So, the jar is going to last very very long for you!!

Perfect for Summer

Now that summers have already started raging in Hyderabad, I can feel that this product is perfect to control the sweat and oil. But, then, remember do not go overboard with the product otherwise it will leave white streaks on your skin. And, it keeps the skin looking bright for at least two hours and you can reapply it after that 🙂

Works for a foundation

Unless you want heavy coverage, this product works perfectly as your makeup base. It has a slight tint which makes your face glow, makes the lip color or lip tints pop up and gives a perfect natural makeup look with a soft dewy face. And, it is easy to reapply 🙂

Does not work for eye

The product does mention that eye contour should be avoided and do heed it. Otherwise, the product cakes up in the eye area.

It is a Day Cream!

For everyone who is confused about this part, the product is ONLY a day cream and meant to be used in the morning time and HAS to be removed with a makeup remover, since it has a tint, at the end of day. And, follow with an anti-aging serum or facial oil.

What do you say?

That’s about it and I think it perfectly rounds up my thoughts regarding the product. So, what do you say now? It is your turn so do share.
– Would you like to use the product?
– Have you already used it? If yes, how did you like it?

L'Oreal Paris Skin Perfect Cream for 30+ Product Review

Few days back, I had asked you to guess the products. And, yes, you were right. The range is L’Oreal Paris Skin Perfect which has come up with different solutions for different ages.

Now that you might have also seen the ads on the television, I can share with you my experience with the product! Since I touched 29 this month itself, I was quite confused as to which age range should I pick up. And, then, I settled for 30+ as my skin was getting too dry due to the winters.

And, then, finally Mr. P settled to feel younger by choosing the 20+ range and I settled for the 30+ considering the winter wreaking havoc on my skin. After all the anti-aging range is more moisturising.

Update: Btw, I was not aware that it is a women-specific range before sharing it with my better half! So, beware all the gals before you recommend it to your sweethearts and better-halves. Also, please do check out how does men’s skin differ from women.

Specifications First

  • Price: Starting at Rs 99
  • Availability: L’Oreal Paris outlets and kiosks.
  • Packaging: The cream comes in a wide-mouthed glass jar but the white really falls flat. A pop of color would have brought elegance to the packaging.
  • Fragrance: My pet peeve of strong smelling products still holds. The fragrance of the product is not really strong but stays a long time so it does effect one who has a sensitive nose. But, it might prove to be quite pleasant for some.
  • Texture: The cream is creamy in consistency and not really thick. Spreads easily.

Skin Perfect Range Claims

Usage and Results

As 30+ product claims, it does give smoother and brighter skin.

But, there is one issue with the product! The application. Though the texture of the product is creamy and easily spread-able, it does not blend well into the skin. In fact, I could not figure out how to easily blend it. So, one has to be able to use the product very judicially.

Only pea size dot is enough to cover the face and another for the neck. Anything more leaves white streaks on the skin. And, I do not think it blends well on damp skin so make sure your skin is dry. And, same is the case if you are trying to layer this product with any other.

On the positive note, I have to say that it controls the oil very well. In fact, as I mentioned earlier, I settled for the 30+ also because I felt 20+ range to be a bit dry for my skin so may be you need different formulations for different weather conditions. And, the effects of the cream last up to 2 hours easily. I would definitely suggest to reapply your moisturising cream after a duration to maintain hydration levels in your skin.

As to its claims on spot reductions, I can not really say anything as I do not have such issues!

My Verdict

Finally, I would like to say that it is a good cream and I am sure it will be a savior in the summers.

So, it is a yes if you really want soft and smoother and brighter skin instantly. And, Mr. P totally endorses it 😀

So, what do you say? Would you love to check out the product? Have you already used or bought it ? How did you like it? Do share!

A new product on the block – a Preview!

L'Oreal Paris Skin Perfect product preview

So, last month, I was sent this really chic package with couple of products for different age groups. It is a basically a customized skin care line for different age groups depending on their skin quality and needs. And, first impressions are last impressions. The packaging is very interesting!

Who used the products?

Yes, I shall keep the products as a surprise for you all to guess. But, we can start with what we felt in the initial usage. I used one age group product and gave Mr. P the other one. And, the last one I gave to my dad!

How did we feel?

So, let me say that Mr. P loved the product. He says it brings a glow on the face and yes it does! This stands true for both the products we tried.

My dad has not yet got back with his opinion because he looks more for wrinkle removal than the even tone and fairness part. But, yup, even his face did glow 😀

So, I shall return with the entire product review sometime next week. Till then, keep guessing which product is it?? Do share in the comments below!

My Hair Diaries – November 2012

My Hair Diary at Perfect Skin Care for you
is my hair looking rough or is it the lighting??? I washed it without using conditioner but my hair is damn soft to touch even if its not looking like that!!

Oh my gosh!! I can’t really believe the year is coming to an end and yeah, I know I am gonna bore you with the countdown. I don’t know why but something is in the air and its exciting and its making me happy even without me knowing what’s there!!

Yeah, I am really weird!! So, lets cut the crap and proceed with my hair diary. Honestly, I am very happy with my hair this year and the way I have maintained my journal. I hope it has been of help to you as well.
What did I do in November?

  • No DIY – Honestly, I have not done any DIY on my hair in terms of hair masks and I have mostly used all kinds of products on my hair but these days, its so soft and heavenly to touch. I truly love my hair with all its faults. 
  • DIET – Ok, one thing which has helped my hair is DIET. Very, very important to eat properly. I am not on a weight-loss regime and I haven’t started eating healthy. If you remember, I had mentioned that my diet had suffered a lot last year and it showed on my face, my body and my hair as well. Yes, it is very important to eat healthy and breakfast is important. I shall do a post separately on it.
  • Hair Cuts – Another thing is I have had a lot of hair cuts this year. One very important observation I have made is that I have had a lot of split ends this year even with regular hair cuts. The only difference between this year and last year is the homemade hair masks and deep conditioning treatments I had done on my hair. So, I can positively say that JUST oiling and regularly conditioning and using an SLS free shampoo is not gonna help your hair at all. Deep conditioning and homemade hair masks do help. Since, I haven’t used any professional salon range products, I can’t say if they help or not.
  • I have started to use Jojoba and Grapeseed oil for hair growth but its been just two or three times I have used so obviously can’t say!! 
  • I have been very regular this month with oiling and washing regime both in Delhi and Hyderabad. I have been using more or less many products on the hair but it hasn’t suffered 🙂 

Products Used

I used Kamini hair oil and mom made oil at Delhi and finished Auravedic one this month and before last wash this month, I used Polynesian Monoi Oil (review coming soon). I am totally loving Kamini shampoo, in fact!!

this time I used the conditioner and leave-in as well and that’s my messy side-braid night look 😀

It really keeps my hair soft and prevents dryness. And, not loving the conditioner but finishing it 🙁 I am also starting to use the Dove Nourishing Oil Care Serum from this month.

How are Rich Feel products? {Your Opinion}

18 Comments

So, have you heard of the brand? Apparently, it is a herbal brand and as far as I can recall, I do think I have heard of the brand but can’t recall. So, I want to ask you if you have heard any reviews of the brand or used them? Please do put in your views. 
The reason I am asking is coz I pampered myself with a hair growth hair spa today. And, they used the rich feel products. They were supposed to use L’Oreal professional but suddenly changed it to this one. I am skeptical about herbal products, no doubt!!! So, would love to hear your views 🙂
