Guinot, a French skincare line found primarily in spas and salons, says that their Liftosome Serum (retail value, $84.00) “redefines facial features, smooths the skin and redesnifies the skin.” Key ingredients are the collagen enhancers Biopeptide EL & CL and Vitamin A to help restore surface elasticity and minimize fine lines and wrinkles. Sounds fab....but what did our Beauty Testers think?

• Did this product work for you?
• Yes, most definitely.
• Did you see a difference in your skin?
• The first thing I noticed--after 3 days--is that my oil production is reduced. Even at 54, my skin is still very oily. I do not wake with oily skin any longer. After using it now for 3 weeks, I have noticed that my tendency to breakout is also reduced. Under my chin, where some lines were appearing, [the skin is] tighter now, and the lines are not as visible. The fine lines around my eye area are also reduced. My skin overall seems more supple, well moisturized, but not greasy.
• Would you use it again?
• Yes, although the $84 price point seems a bit much to me. I'd have to consider how that fits into my budget.
• Would you recommend it to other FOF members?
• Yes. I feel it is an effective product.

• Did this product work for you?
• I did see a difference, but it was subtle.
• Did you see a difference in your skin?
• My skin was hydrated, smoother and plumped, but not greasy or oily.
• Would you use it again?
• Yes. I think with time, the benefits would become more obvious.
• Would you recommend it to other FOF members?
• Women with dry or combination skin would benefit from the hydration and plumping of the skin.

• Did this product work for you?
• Yes. I have used many similar products with no noticeable improvement. However, I find this product to be effective in reducing the appearance of deep lines from my nose to the sides of my mouth, and at the lip line. This product definitely exceeded my expectations.
• Did you see a difference in your skin?
• I began to see results within one week of using this product morning and night. The product is hydrating and does not cause dryness and peeling as Renova does, yet seems as effective if not more so. I enjoy using this product. The lotion has a pleasant fragrance without being overbearing. This is a great compliment coming from me as I have a low tolerance for most scented products.
• Would you use it again?
• I would use this product on a daily basis..
• Would you recommend it to other FOFs?
• I would most definitely recommend this product to other FOF women. I have had Juvederm and Radiesse treatments in the past. I feel this product has been so effective that I haven't decided when or if I'll go back for additional treatments. Although I know this product is somewhat pricey, I feel it is worth the expense, and I will definitely buy it once I find a source.

Editor’s note: These reviews have not been altered. Guinot provided the products, however they did not provide any additional compensation to FOF or the testers.
