Need To Demolish Deep Wrinkles? Try Avon ANEW Platinum!

If you are over 60 or are experiencing advanced signs of aging, Avon has released the perfect skincare line for you — ANEW Platinum.   This line claims to help lift the skin and reduce the look of deep wrinkles.  It includes cleanser, day and night creams, a serum and an eye and lip cream.  Everything you need for your skin to look and feel better as it matures.  Here are a couple of products I tested:

ANEW PLATINUM Day Cream SPF 25 ($38.00 USD) — Claims to dramatically reduce the look of deep wrinkles and visibly reshapes the neck for a more youthful look.* Formulated with patented Paxillium Technology to help restore youthful cell shape, while Radiescent Microspheres help to immediately counteract dullness and help restore radiant skin. 92% agree it restores youthful color and radiance to skin.** In 1 day, skin of the delicate neck area looks firmed and feels lifted and supported all day. In 4 weeks, 74% agree it dramatically reduces the look of deep wrinkles and visibly reshapes neck for a more youthful look.** To use: In the morning, smooth evenly over cleansed face and neck. 1.7 fl. oz*Over a 4 week time period. **Based on women who expressed an opinion in a consumer-perception study.

ANEW PLATINUM Eye & Lip Cream ($36.00 USD) — The 1st eye & lip treatment formulated with Paxillium Technology to boost the production of Paxillin by 60% to help restore youthful cell shape. 77% saw more youthful definition in the eye & lip areas.* .5 fl. oz.

For eyes:  In 3 days, 88% agree skin around eye area looks and feels more elastic. In 2 weeks, 87% agree it smoothes the look of thin, wrinkled skin on eyelids.*

For lips: In 3 days, fills in the appearance of deep lines above and below lips.** In 2 weeks, 77% agree contour and shape of lips is visibly improved.*

Dual-tip precision applicator – rounded silvery tip helps cool and refresh eye area; flat tip evenly applies cream on and around lips.

*Based on women who expressed an opinion in a consumer-perception study. **Based on in-vitro testing on 3D reconstructed skin.

While I am not the target audience for these products, I found them soothing and extremely moisturizing.  I love that the day cream has an SPF of 25 — important for women of all ages.  The applicator for the eye and lip cream is so smart — I apply the product with the flat end and smooth it around my eyes or lips with the silver ball.

I do think that this would be a perfect — and fairly affordable — line for those over 60. Visit www.shop.avon.com to purchase.  Enjoy!

Treat Aging Skin With Avon Anew Reversalist

There are SO many anti-aging skin care products on the market today, and it is really difficult to decide which one to use (if you can even afford them). Avon’s Anew Reversalist line is so much less expensive than most department store lines and works just as well. Here are the products that I tried recently:

Anew Reversalist Day Renewal Cream SPF 25 (1.7 fl. oz. Reg. $32.00, Sale $27.00) — Visibly reverses wrinkles with Activinol Technology while helping to protect skin with SPF 25 UVA/UVB. Makes skin look and feel reborn all day. Skin will look fresh, new and younger. The claim is that in 3 days: begins to reduce the look of wrinkles. In 2 weeks: improves discolorations by up to 25%. Over time: dramatically reduces the look of wrinkles and discolorations. Skin looks dramatically tighter..

Anew Reversalist Night Renewal Cream (1.7 fl. oz. Reg. $32.00, Sale $27.00) — Reactivate skin’s repair process to help reverse the look of wrinkles with Activinol Technology, working better together.Over 80% of people saw their wrinkles dramatically reversed. The claim: In 3 days, 73% of people said their skin felt and looked reborn. In 4 weeks, dramatically reduces the look of wrinkles and discolorations.

Anew Reversalist Illuminating Eye System (.09 oz. $30.00 USD) — Brightens even your darkest undereye area. Two-part eye system with Activinol Eye Technology. Helps reactivate skin’s repair processes and dramatically reverse visible wrinkles. Instantly: eye area appears more luminous.  First used the eye cream to visibly repair dark, circles, fine lines and wrinkles over time; next use the sheer veil that has potent skin brighteners. Illuminates undereye area instantly. Use after eye cream and reapply as needed.In 4 weeks: dramatically reduces the look of fine wrinkles.

I enjoyed using this line. The creams are light enough not to be greasy, but are very mosturizing. I really loved the eye cream/illuminizer duo. This is a nice treat for the eyes and makes you look younger instantly!

NEW StriVectin-SD® for Sensitive Skin

NEW StriVectin-SD® for Sensitive Skin

Strangely enough, I find that as my skin ages, it becomes more sensitive. I was excited to try a new sensitive skin cream from StriVectin hoping that it would address some of my anti-aging concerns without making it red and uncomfortable. 

The product is called StriVectin-SD® for Sensitive Skin Intensive Concentrate for Stretch Marks & Wrinkles ($79.00 USD). A mouthful, I know, but a really great product. The claim is that it is, “is an anti-aging powerhouse, developed exclusively for sensitive skin. 100% of StriVectin’s collagen-building, wrinkle-reducing, anti-aging power. And none of the oils or fragrances that cause irritation and leave sensitive skin vulnerable to accelerated aging.”

This cream is for the 49% of women 25+ with sensitive skin who are battling the signs of aging. When using conventional products, they are prone to redness, dryness, flare-ups, burning and stinging. It includes the benefits of collagen building, wrinkle-reducing, anti-aging power with no oils or fragrances. Through NIA-114™, it strengthens skin’s protective layer so wrinkles diminish, tone evens and texture smoothes. Sensitive skin feels less sensitive.

StriVectin-SD® for Sensitive Skin is fragrance-free, oil-free, paraben-free, allergen-free, and artificial dye-free. This soothing formula contains Nia-114, active peptides, rose & cucumber extracts, and oat kernel extract to deliver powerful results in a gentle way.

What I think: The very first time I used this product, I noticed immediate smoothing and brightening of my skin. It was very surprising. So many face creams make my skin red at first, before the benefits kick in, so I am not used to such fast results.

I have now been using the cream twice a day for a few weeks and love using it. It hydrates my dry, winter skin leaving it feeling soft and nourished. My skin looks noticeably younger because of the glow and smoothness it imparts.

I highly recommend the StriVectin-SD® for Sensitive Skin Intensive Concentrate for Stretch Marks & Wrinkles for the face. I haven’t tried it on my stretch marks, but I bet it would help. You can purchase this at www.strivectin.com and www.sephora.com
