L'Oréal Paris Age Perfect Collagen Expert Retightening Care Night Cream

I picked this up in the beauty vault along with the matching day cream, thanks BR. It comes in a heavy square pot with a screw on lid, simple packaging but still nice.

It has a strong floral scent which thankfully doesn't linger on your face, I was a bit worried because I have sensitive skin but fortunately I  did not get any reaction at all. Consistency wise it is very thick.

I use this at night after cleansing and toning. The day and night cream pots look identical so you need to make sure you grab the right one...personally I can't even tell a difference in the actual cream either.

I wake up with smooth, hydrated skin. It looks plump and healthy and ready to face the day. I get no breakouts at all from this, although it is thick I wouldn't say it is heavy. I have enjoyed using this and I would happily repurchase. I know it says it is aimed at 50 plus mature skin but my soon to be 40 skin loves it.

This is my favourite night cream so far. It evens skin tone and I wake up looking fresh. My skin looks moisturised and I’m seeing a slight difference with an age spot.

I dont actually have mature skin as im under 20 but i have been using this night cream recently and i love it. It feels so hydrating when i put it on which is what i need, my skin is oily but dehydrated. I feel like my complexion is very uneven but i do believe its looking more even after using this for a while. This cream feels really high quality and using it makes me feel like i really am looking after my skin which is a good feeling.

This was my favourite product compared to the eye and day cream. It is in the same simple packaging separated by the 'Night' label. The cream itself has a beautiful scent that is not too overpowering. It looks rich and thick, in consistency, but it absorbs quickly and easily- you don't need a lot. The most prominent benefit, for me, was the hydration; something my menopausal 54 year old skin loves. I used it on my neck and decolletage and again the the hydration was obvious. I can definitely see an improvement in the plumpness and softness of my skin. As for tightening...maybe? A little? It is after all a skin cream, not a magic wand. I have not noticed any improvement in the few age spots I have, perhaps that is yet to come.

I noticed a good improvement to my skin after just a week of using this night cream. I am continuing to notice subtle improvements as the weeks goes on.

My skin has become firmer and fine lines have reduced. I am very much enjoying this experience.

This cream is very luxurious, I like to be quite generous with the application, slathering it on before bed to wake up to hydrated smooth skin.

I will be recommending to my friends.

I very much enjoyed my trial of the L'Oreal Paris Age Perfect Collagen Expert Retightening Care Night Cream.

I have a few age spots and the usual fine lines and wrinkles one would expect from a woman of my age. I have moderately dry skin.

This night cream soaks into the skin with no residue or greasy aftermath. It's so rich and creamy.

The this night cream is lightly scented, not unpleasant or overbearing.

I have noticed a real reduction in the colouring of my age spots, whether this will continue I don't know, but even if the fading I've experienced so far was the max I was to get, I'd be blooming stoked!

Retightening is a bit of a scary word I think, I hate the thought of tight skin, it makes me think of that horrible over-cleansed feeling. Thankfully this doesn't regime doesn't feel anything like that! It feels good, a gentle firming sensation after use.

Having just turned 50 and with a lifetime of dry skin behind me, I was so glad to be chosen to be part of the trial team for this product. The jar is a great size, the cream is lovely and hydrating and the smell is subtle but pleasant. It definitely hydrates! I've only been using it for 2 weeks though, so can't comment on the 'retightening' claims with this cream. I do enjoy using it and have found it a welcome addition to my nightly skincare routine. I haven't seen any evidence of any re-plumping either but I'm going to continue to use it until the jar is empty and evaluate results for myself then. Judging by how little I've used so far (a little goes a long way), I'd say this jar will last me well over the month, possibly around the 6 week mark. By then the results should be obvious as the claims on the box say I should expect results after 1 month.

Regardless of that, it's a lovely rich cream that absorbs quickly and easily and hasn't caused any reaction to my sometimes-sensitive skin. It accompanies the eye cream nicely and the two do seem to complement each other.

My rating reflects the fact that I've only been using the product for 2 weeks so I don't feel comfortable rating it up or down when the box clearly says it takes at least 1 month to see any results. Perhaps BR could extend these trials until the length of time recommended to see results in future? It feels like a fairer way to assess the situation.
