Skin Care Review: Clarins Revitalift Serum - sensitive skin

Rating
Excellent

Benefits
Relieved the dryness across my cheeks and forehead without causing any irritation.

Drawbacks
Can be an expensive addition to a skin care regime.

Details
This serum is applied after cleansing and toning but before moisturising. I also occasionally apply some underneath my moisturising face mask.

It was a concern that the consistency of the serum - quite oily to the touch - would leave skin feeling greasy in the extreme humidty but I was pleasantly surprised that after application my skin absorbed the serum with no greasy residue. My skin can react badly to topical applications and this is only one of two serums I have used where there has been no adverse reaction.

Skin feels more hydrated and firm and patches of dryness around the crease of the nose and along the brow have gone. After four months of use, there do not appear to be any unpleasant side effects and skin seems to be healthier and less prone to reactions with other topical applications including sunscreen.

Conclusions
A good product for dry sensitive skin even in humid weather.
