This serum transforms skin into the best version of itself. Fast-absorbing, it plumps, hydrates and tightens on first use and helps skin maintain moisture and reduces pore size and redness over time.

An essential part of your skincare regime,

Best and most effective serum I have ever tried.

It has been exactly four week since I began using the  Lancôme Advanced Génifique Youth

Activating Concentrate and I have to start this post out by saying that I will happily be splurging

on a repeat buy of this product once I have finished this bottle. That will still be in a long while

though as I have been using this serum for 28 days and I have barely made a dent in the product. I

use the product religiously nightly (sometimes in the morning too) and a little goes a LONG way!

I am thrilled with my four week check in results; I reported back in my last two posts that I was

seeing fantastic results and I was still hoping that product’s properties would kick in even more and

give me a few more results that were suggested on the packaging…

I am happy to report that the checklist box of ‘Clarified Skin Texture’ has now been ticked! I am

absolutely seeing positive outcomes in my skin tone and texture. Most noticeably, the discolouration

under my eyes and around my nose area are almost completely gone. A week or two more and who

knows how ‘Genefique’ my skin will be looking!!

I am on the First Week of consistent use of the Lancôme Advanced Génifique Youth Activating Concentrate. My last bottle, which I bought from Foschini at a 20% discount (normal retail price is R780), was already running low, so I was using it as sparingly as possible. Now that Beauty Bulletin has deemed me worthy and blessed me another 30 ml, I am splurging daily and my skin glows with gratitude.

Apparently, Lancôme Advanced Génifique Youth Activating Concentrate is sold globally every four minutes and I could believe that because I #lovemyage, but looking my age is not a goal of mine.

The Lancôme Advanced Génifique Youth Activating Concentrate patented secret promises to:

1. Repair visible signs of aging;
2. Reactivate radiance and luminosity, and
3. Create a youthful halo of silky, perfectly plumped skin.

My skin has been showing some signs of dehydration since the start of autumn and the sparing use of this serum did help, but because I was not consistent my skin was starting to require more as the weather was getting drier and colder. The one week of daily use, morning and night, has already shown me why the Lancôme Advanced Génifique Youth Activating Concentrate is so popular.

My experience so far is that –

1. My skin is plumper and no longer feels tight or dry feeling cleansing;
2. My skin feels smoother and looks hydrated;
3. Without any change is my scrubbing routine, I have less visible dead skin cells;
4. My expression lines are disappearing quicker than before; and
5. Foundation sits better on my face even without the use of a primer.

A video is coming up for a closer encounter with my plumper, smoother glowing skin.

?I am so excited to share my Advanced Génifique Sérum by Lancôme Journey with all of you!

Hi
My name is Philile Zikalala im 27 years of age Its been a week using Lancôme Advanced Génifique Youth Activating Concentrate ,I've currently been treating my face for acne eventually it cleared.But with that being said it left behind blackheads and scars on my face which I'm currently treating aswel.
Lancôme Advanced Génifique Youth Activating Concentrate for trial a week ago I was so skeptical due to the fact that I've used and spent so much just to correct my facial skin.

Its been 8 days using it and I notice that the arks on my face are slowly fading away,my skin is much softer and smooth.I can't really say a lot at the moment since its early days.Should there be more change I definitely will be sharing my journey with you .

Before I forget ,I absolutely love the design,the bottle is so elegant ,makes me feel so good when I take it out especially after a good shower at gym and all the ladies are curious to know about this product.Be sure to hear from me soon

XOXO

First week of the #LancomeSouthAfrica #LoveYourAge and I am hooked. Usually by 10am my T-Zone "shines bright like a diamond" but just a week of use has changed that. Matte...considering I do not use anything except face cream with SPF50 on my face. I love how it glides into the skin.

I cannot say much for the lines though, still early days, My overall appearance has improved. The skin looks slightly more healthier than it did before. With just one week of use, I just love it. I cannot wait for the final results.

I have now used the last drop of the serum that I have been using for four weeks and boy! am I just so elated that I was part of the trial team.

Listen, this serum took my skin from dull to glowing and even beyond! I have literally noticed my skin change from dry to hydrated and the blemishes were slowly disappearing each day I looked at the mirror. I am now loving looking at my bare skin each day.

My skin feels supple, it literally sucked and absorbed every single drop I applied throughout the weeks. This is a must have product for people who have skin problems like eczema, blemishes and uneven skin tone.

Thank you Beauty Bulletin, I know I will have withdrawal symptoms now that the serum is finished! This is a must-have product and I will save up to buy another bottle.

It's been just under 4 weeks since I started my journey with Lancôme's Advanced Génifique serum. I've had very mixed feelings about the product so I made this little table...

What worked for me

The packaging is unique and extremely clever, not to mention beautiful!

I love the clever dispensing system with the right amount loading into the dropper when you close the lid so that the next time you open it, it's all ready and waiting for you.

My skin is definitely smoother and has a new clarity and radiance.

The challenges

The skin around my eyes reacted to the serum so I had to stop using it there, which is a pity as I really need some work on that area!?

There is no "miracle" - I still have spots and marks and wrinkles!

I do not see a major difference in my skin and don't feel that the brand promise has been kept.

It is not cheap!

I'm about 2 thirds of the way through the bottle, which means I've still got at least another 2 weeks, maybe even another 4.

Here's the pics of me from the end of August until now. I do think that there is a difference and I have had a couple of people say that my skin is looking a lot better. I do like the smoothness but a miracle would have been nice!

Overall, I think the pros outweigh the cons but the biggest factor in my decision to buy this product again is simply the price! R780 is a lot to pay for a serum. I find it hard to justify the amount of money given the benefit received from it - in other words, if it really was a miracle worker I'd find it to be pretty cheap!

The trial has been a good introduction into the world of Lancôme, however, as I've never used their products before. I'd definitely be interested in exploring their product range further. I'd certainly love to try the eye serum in the same range - would be wonderful if it had the same softening and tightening effect on my under-eye area.

My thanks to Lancôme South Africa and the #awesome Beauty Bulletin for giving me the chance to try out this fab product. I'll pop back in when I come to the end of the product and let you know what the results are.

And don't forget to visit the Lancôme pop-up shop to check out their products.

Wrapping up my Lancôme Advanced Génifique
Since the age of 30 I have been at war with fine lines, dull skin and just general aging.
Since I was fortunate enough to be introduced to Lancôme Advanced Génifique, my search for a product that works has been halted. My fine lines and dull skin is a thing of the past. I love my age thanks to Génifique.

Génifique is a must have every month as it is the only product that I have used thus far that really works and my skin is the proof of that. I am happy to purchase the product no matter what the cost once the bottle I have is empty. It's a definate must have. I call it my little bottle of miracle potion.

My main skin concerns are fine lines, dull skin and a bit of pigmentation as well. I feel like this serum addressed and treated all three factors really well. My skin is supple, radiant and very smooth.

I love that it's scent free so I can use it around the eye area without any sensitivity. It also sinks into the skin super fast, which makes for applying makeup or face cream a breeze, without clogging up the pores.

I would be happy to purchase this serum for myself once my bottle is up, it's such a gem!

I loved using every drop of this serum. My skin is visibly radiant and hydrated- fines lines from dehydration are gone . Skin is still uneven but i'm definitely purchasing one hopefully my skin is even in another 6 weeks :)

1.5 weeks down and I'm absolutely loving Lancôme Advanced Génifique Youth Activating Concentrate...

Watch my video below where I share my first impressions of this skincare hero:

The Youth Activator serum is a clear and gel/silicone like and takes about a minute to absorb. It is easy to apply as it comes with a dropper which has just the right amount for each application.I applied the serum only under my eyes (though it can be used all over the face).
After about a week of applying the serum under my eyes every morning and some nights, the skin under my eyes looked plumper and the dark lines were visibly diminished. The skin feels a lot tighter to the touch as well. The serum sometimes stings a bit on application, especially if I have just exfoliated – which is because of the denatured alcohol in the product. I am head over heels in love with this product. I was sad to see that it cost R655 for 30ml, nevertheless I think it is worth saving for and if you only use if under the eyes it should last some months. I have been using the 7ml sample for 2 weeks now and its only half way, so 30mls should last 4/5 months.

A great serum indeed! You only need one teeny tiny drop of this. It is mostly for aged women, but if you do have fine lines then it is perfect for you. It is important to note that it is not a moisturiser, it actually tightens your skin to help reduce fine lines.

After 7 days of correct use, you will see results. You need to apply this by using a tiny drop of this clear serum in upward motions, never downward.

Received a sample of this and it lasted quite a while. So the investment of this product is great.

Priced at R600 for the 30ml bottle- it is an investment treatment
