Just a really short review today, as I don't have much time.
I happened to accumulate enough test sachets of the high coveted Génifique serum from Lancome to use for more than a month.
Okay, maybe 2 months of trial would have been better, but the SAs here prefer to keep the testers for themself, so it takes quite bit of @ss-licking to get them to share with the customer....
I tested the renowned serum and a new part of the line: eye serum.
First, let's see the Génifique Youth Activating Serum:

Not the cheapest thing ever, but it's worth its price!^^ After the first application my skin felt tighter (not in the dry way) and more moisturized. I used it every night before my night cream, and it did a big difference in 3-4 weeks (I used it for 5 weeks)!
Smooth skin, more even skintone which looks younger! I dare not to say it looked radiant, it might have been my imagination....Anyway, I loved the results!
(Lately youngsters - yes, I'm an old hag - address me the way used to address middle-aged or old people! #_# I gotta do something to look younger!!!!!)
A little goes a long way, 1-2 drops into your palms and pat it in. You have to be fast as it absorbs quickly^^
Lancome Génifique Eye:

Best eye cream, of sorry, serum ever!!! Actually, it is like a cream, texture and all. Love it to bits! Too bad I run out of it! >.< I'm sure I'll buy the full size product, but not this month HAHA
My eye area never felt this good before! Indeed velvety to the touch, while moisturized and strong feeling! Strong! That's very important for the delicate eye area.
It did helped to remove the smaller lines, however the deeper ones remained.
And the dark circles became a bit lighter too. They didn't disappear, and I think they never will, since the cause is too thin skin and not lack of sleep. And sadly, this is something there's no 'cure' or good enough concealer for.
Do I recommend these? YES =)
