L'Oréal Age Perfect Cleansing Wipes Mature Ski

 

I’ve always had extremely sensitive skin and have lost count of the number of products I have bought over the years to try and for the most part they would be unsuitable. It was a joy to be able to find a product that covers so many of the “must have” benefits when searching for a good quality, yet affordable face cream.

L’Oreal Paris Age Perfect Re-Hydrating Lotion is not just a face cream oh no, it is so much more, it is also suitable for the Neck and dcolletage area as well. The skin on the neck and dcolletage is a lot thinner and delicate than the skin on the face it is therefore important to ensure a product that is used on this delicate area will give the protection and moisturisation required without being too weighty (which would ultimately drag the skin rather than improving).

First impressions on so many things are always important and the packaging is lovely and looks like you are buying a more expensive product and indicates quite clearly on the front what this lotion is intended for and what the benefits are of making this selection. Quite simply, it does what it says on the box

1. Hydrates the Fack, Neck & Dcolletage: before buying this product I used one serum on my face, another on my neck and dcolletage and a face cream to layer on top of the face serum (but not on the neck or dcolletage)
2. Includes SPF15: always a must have for any product you apply to the skin. I struggle to use most sun protection products and tend to find that any serum’s or lotions/creams with an SPF will inevitably cause an allergic reaction, this was not the case with this lotion, this is a massive plus point for me as well
3. Anti-Sagging + Anti Age Spots: we all want to avoid both don’t we. I can’t comment on whether this is indeed the case as I haven’t been using the lotion long enough but am sure over time it will do what it says on the box
4. For Mature, Delicate Skin: I don’t like to consider myself as mature but sadly my birth certificate is saying different as is my skin, so once again this is a big positive attraction for me. Regarding being suitable for delicate skin, I’ve mention my very sensitive skin and was so surprised and happy to find I could use this product without reaction or issue (phew thank you L’Oreal)

This lotion comes in a slim, easy to hold bottle with an easy application pump and one pump gives a good-sized amount of product for the face and I would use another for my neck and dcolletage.

It is a lovely rich and silky looking lotion but at that same time a perfect weight for the facial area. However, I’m also concerned that although it is suitable for the delicate neck and dcolletage area it did feel “heavy” compared to my usual serum (specifically targeted for this area).

The lotion smooths into the skin easily and sinks in well. It isn’t greasy or tacky to touch although I am aware I can see it on my face (a subtle shine which would wear off during the day or if make up was applied)

I have quite a sensitive sense of smell and although not a strong fragrance I still feel it is more perfumed than I would prefer and not a scent I found pleasant (this is such a personal observation and I’m sure most people won’t notice or be bothered by the fragrance).

I would definitely recommend this lotion to friends, family and work colleagues however ultimately, I’m not sure whether I will continue to use it but that would purely be down to the smell more than any other reason (and hence 4 stars).
