Tried Boots No. 7

[LauraMax]

I have no idea what all the excitement was about. I don't like it at all & will be stopping at CVS tonight to get more Olay Regenerist. I've been using it since Saturday & my skin feels very dry& tight--that's with 100% humidity here in NJ!

So OK, it's inexpensive & people in England are raving about it. My review: don't waste your money. Stick w/Oil of Olay.

My mom brought some back for me from England. Why she thought she needed to bring me makeup across the world, I don't know, LOL. (or, I'm ignoring why she thought she needed to!!)

Anyway, it was useless to me, too. :+

Thanks so much for the review. I've trying to decide if I should buy it, but it's always sold out. I guess that was a good thing for me!

So, you recommend Olay Regenerist? What products do you use? I stood in front of the Olay products for 30 minutes yesterday and ended up buying nothing. I've been trying to decide what line to go with... I'm 38 and want to ward off the aging process as much as possible.

Hi all,

I've been using the Restore serum for several weeks, and have liked the results. My skin seems to be more evened out, and some of the finer lines under my eyes have gotten better.

I really think that it comes down to what type of skin you have and what works best on it. Dr. Baumann's book on skin care goes over skin types in detail; her book came out before the Boots line appeared in America, so I wasn't sure if this product works for me, but it does seem to be.

I'd recommend trying it if you have oily skin with large pores (my skin type).

Good luck!

The best way to ward off the aging process is to use products with a high SPF.

And never smile.

To avoid wrinkles.






Just kidding! :7 :7 :7 :7

Vanessa--I use the Regenerist serum, eye cream, night cream & I just bought the new Regenerist facial cream Tuesday night--can't remember off the top of my head what it's called but it comes in a red jar. Funny, someone asked me yesterday if I'd started doing something different w/my skin routine b/c it looked like it was glowing (I didn't notice this but I'm not one to turn down a compliment }( ). I wonder if it's the new moisturizer?

I much prefer creams to lotions, they seem to be much more effective moisturizers.

LauraMax - Thanks for the info! I was trying to decide between the lotion (contains SPF) and the cream. I prefer creams, also, so good to know. Looks like I'm stopping at the drugstore on the way home from work...

Do you use sunscreen daily? How do you incorporate it into the Regenerist program? Maybe I just need to use a foundation with SPF.

TIA,
Vanessa

Yeah, I get my SPF from my foundation. I use Prescriptives Traceless, great stuff.

Have fun shopping!
