Review: Vivo Per Lei Anti Wrinkle Lifting Gel– it awoke the dead!

Well, maybe not exactly, but it got the attention of my otherwise oblivious husband!

I lost a huge amount of weight, and had Walter Matthau-style bags and furrows from the stretched skin– to such a great extent that at 41, I had to have a lower face lift. It did firm things considerably, but did nothing for the small lines and furrows around my eyes and mouth.

I ordered the Vivi Anti-Wrinkle Lifting gel, but expected little in the way of results. I had tried several other anti-wrinkle creams and gels, but all were heavy and oily, and made me break out, with little result. 

I was literally stunned when just one week after starting using Vivo Gel at bedtime, my husband said, “Hey– your face is looking really nice. Your skin’s kinda glow-y!”  This from a guy who normally wouldn’t notice unless my hair was on fire!

My skin is notably firmer, but still petal soft, and not greasy: no breakouts, and none of the heaviness other moisturizers leave behind.  Thank you so much for this wonderful product!

Review: Dead Sea Premier Concentrated Facial Serum

Dear skin gods,

Please bring me a product that will make my skin feel soft and supple. Let this serum have Vitamin E, and throw in some C for added benefit. Please save my skin from all of the horrible things I do to it every day… like walking outside in the California air. Oh, dearest skin gods, please protect and nurture my skin from the harshness of this world, and leave it with a healthy and youthful glow.

Amen.

AMEN!

Dead Sea Premier Concentrated Facial SerumBasics: My skin has found its salvation. Several weeks ago I told you about the Swisa Beauty Dead Sea Facial Peel. This is the perfect counterpart… step 2, ‘B’ to its ‘A’… I mean, this is what you should use to follow up your peel. The Dead Sea Premier Facial Serum is a perfect skin restorative post facial peel!

Extravagance: Okay, sometimes I say really silly and corny things. Brace yourself, because I’m going to do it again. When you put this stuff on, it seriously feels like you are rubbing your skin with velvet. I’m not exaggerating. If you don’t believe me, you are just going to have to try it for yourself!

And, if healthy skin isn’t enough of a promise… the packaging says that if you use this twice a day, you’ll have a noticeable lift.

Imperfections: The instructions say that you should use this twice a day – before your moisturizer (after wash and toner… if you use it). I can’t really use this every day, though for those of you with dryer skin, use it. Use it a lot. For those of you with combo or oily skin, it may leave you (as it did me) feeling a little more shiny than you are comfortable with. It’s not like an oil slick, and if you wear makeup every day, it is likely not really an issue at all.

Oh, and it has one of those glass bottles I’m so famous for breaking. My imperfection, not theirs.

To Sum It Up: No nasty breakouts. No funky redness. Just soothing, smoothing and… I can’t think of another rhyming word, so I’ll just say restoring!
