I’m at that age where I’m looking for products that are double duty, something that helps even out my skin tone and makes me look all pretty and the other to moisturize and help fight the signs of aging. The new Garnier Ultra-Lift Transformer Anti-Age Skin Correctordoes just that. Its breakthrough technology helps to brighten and rejuvenate the skin while reducing the visible signs of aging. It features 5 active ingredients, LHA, Vitamin E, Anti-Oxidant Ginger, Firming Peptimes and Proretinol which combine, help to prevent and fight against wrinkles, uniformity and dark spots while adding firmness and radiance back into the skin. Pro-Retinol boosts natural cell renewal while protecting skin’s moisture barrier to overtime help prevent dryness and restore firmness. It also features auto-adjusting texture that transforms on contact to instantly correct and brighten the skin for true radiance. Although it starts off white in the tube it releases micro-pigments that automatically adjusts to any skin tone, whether you’re fair, medium or dark. Skin is left smooth, soft, hydrated and flawless.
Garnier Ultra-Lift Transformer Anti-Age Skin Corrector comes in a small squeeze tube and has a rich, thick, creamy, velvety texture that comes out completely white, like stated above. It’s applied to the face and neck daily and then blending out for a smooth coverage. Start with the smallest amount, a little really does go a long way, and then layer more on if need be. It applies effortlessly, blends out beautifully, and transforms into a universal light shade of beige with a dewy, glowing finish. Its lightweight formula absorbs into the skin almost immediately and doesn’t feel heavy or sticky on the skin. It instantly adds moisturize back into the skin to keep it hydrated throughout the day. It does have somewhat of a strong rose perfume scent that slowly disappears within 10 minutes.
I’ve been using Garnier Ultra-Lift Transformer Anti-Age Skin Corrector for the past few weeks now and thanks to its micro-pigments it instantly transforms and adjusts perfectly to my pale, light, skin tone. Although the colour matched my skin beautifully and helped even out my skin tone, it was such a sheer wash of colour, it didn’t provide me with the coverage I’m used to. It didn’t conceal my breakouts or hyperpigmentation, but did an excellent job of brightening and bringing a little life back into my skin. For those that don’t wear a lot of foundation, you’ll love this, and for those that like a fuller coverage, you can apply your favourite foundation right over top and still have all the added anti-aging benefits it offers. Skin is left smoother, softer and more hydrated, just remember because of the retinol it can leave you more sensitive and susceptible to sun damage so you’ll want to make sure you’re applying your daily sunscreen. Long-term anti-aging effect… it’s too soon to tell, but I did notice my skin feels a little firmer and I’m sure the combination of those 5 active ingredients are working their magic as we speak. It retails for $22.99 for 50ml.
I’m not sure that this shade would work for my skin tone, it looks slightly orange. I do appreciate the added skin care benefits though! :)
Wow, it has retinol in it? Very cool!
