Thank you for the opportunily of trying the *New Advanced Night Repair Serum Infusion*After 1 month of nightly use I can report the following......

1) I am lucky enough to have no visable signs of deep wrinkles but can say my under eye skin is definatley smoother brighter and showing no signs of early morning puffines.
2) Best Kept Secret.
3) I will continue to use this product,it feels good on the skin and has tightened under the eye's to some degree,by the time The Wedding comes around I may look 40ish.
4) I would certainly recommend this product to a friend as we should all have the opportunity to hold back the years and feel good within ourselves.

These are my true feelings on the product tested.

As I live in Barbados I had to wait to get my sample so only started using it on March 4th.

In the unlikely event of the subject of eye creams popping up in conversation I would recommend it based on the replies to 2 & 3.

1. After using the Advanced Night Repair Eye Serum Infusion, did you see any changes to the look and/or feel of the following areas? If so please give details.
- Fine lines -Definitely some improvement
- Wrinkles - Luckily I don't have wrinkles around my eyes, unless I laugh, when I haven't seen an improvement sadly.
- Dark circles- Yes, a slight improvement.
- Dryness - Not dry beforehand, so can't comment, but feels hydrating.
- Puffiness. - Sadly no improvement

2. What three words would you say best describes this product? - Light, non greasy, nice to use. (sorry more than 3 words)

3. Do you think you will continue to use Advanced Night Repair Eye Serum Infusion in the future? If so why? If not why not? - Depends on the price! If over £50, then no, otherwise yes. It feels good on application and seems to be a slight improvement but not worth more than £50 (although I don't know how long it lasts?)

4. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend it to a friend? If so, why? If not, why not? -I would if asked, because of the results, the way it is easily applied and because it feels good once applied.

NfkDumpling Tue 19-Mar-13 21:25:03

Since I didn't get chosen for a sample, I just looked up the price - £45. Has anyone used Avon Anew? I'd really like to know how it compares as Avon is a whole lot cheaper.

Galen Tue 19-Mar-13 22:04:24

I've just ordered some of the Estée as I didn't get a samplesad but I'll try it then give unbiased feedback!

glammanana Wed 20-Mar-13 09:27:35

Nfk unfortunatley I can't use Avon products as they tend to leave my skin with a burning feeling I have tried a few of their products with the same effect.

Irene16 Wed 20-Mar-13 09:35:35

1. After using the Advanced Night Repair Eye Serum Infusion, did you see any changes to the look and/or feel of the following areas? If so please give details.

- Fine lines

I'm luck that I only have a few fine lines beneath the eye and some creases at the outer corner from being in the sun. I did notice that the appearance of these softened and they were not so noticeable

- Wrinkles

Does't really apply

- Dark circles

I don't have these

- Dryness

I have found that the skin under my eyes does get very dry and as most face creams need to avoid the eye area this is a problem. I found that this serum nicely moisturised the under eye area and left the skin looking fresher and applying foundation afterwards was much easier. The foundation sat nicely on the skin and didn't look dried out

- Puffiness.

I don't have puffiness but I did find that I enjoyed following the instructions and tapping the serum into the skin under the eye. I can imaging that if you experienced puffy eyes this would be a benefit

2. What three words would you say best describes this product?

premium, pleasurable, effective

3. Do you think you will continue to use Advanced Night Repair Eye Serum Infusion in the future? If so why? If not why not?

I would definitely put it in my Pinterest list of 'pressies I would like to receive'. I think it is a premium product and is priced as such but I think it could be economical as it only takes a small amount so the pump would last some time.

4. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend it to a friend? If so, why? If not, why not?

If I was having a girly shop day with a friend who was looking for this type of product I would certainly recommend it

Ana Wed 20-Mar-13 20:41:41

Irene16 - I am curious as to how old you are if you have no wrinkles, dark circles or puffiness! Are you, in fact, only 16? grin Seriously, you are very lucky if you're a gran and have such good skin!

fluffy Thu 21-Mar-13 09:06:57

Hi - cant seem to work out how to copy and paste in iPad so I'm scrolling up and down like mad to answer the questions - here goes :
1. Did I see any changes in all those areas - not really but then touch wood don't have puffiness etc
2. Three words to describe - luxurious, fragrant, feels nice and silky on skin , nice packaging! Sorry that's not three words.
3. Will I continue to use - I think I might use the sample up but not sure if I would actually buy it.
4. Would I recommend to a friend? Maybe if they had bad wrinkles.
I haven't got a lot of wrinkles but do have quite a few lines when I smile but don't think anything would change these!

baubles Thu 21-Mar-13 17:50:25

Looks like I was the only wrinkly tester envy

Elegran Thu 21-Mar-13 18:10:24

The only one who is admitting to any, Baubles

NfkDumpling Thu 21-Mar-13 18:27:47

Picking someone as a tester with no wrinklies, dark circles or puffiness is cheating. Now, I would have been a real challenge!

soop Thu 21-Mar-13 18:31:42

Baubles You are beautiful. So there! smile

Ana Thu 21-Mar-13 18:49:59

I agree, Nfk! It was wasted on them...wink

Ana Thu 21-Mar-13 18:51:57

Actually, it was quite interesting reading the Mumsnet reviews on this product. Not many were impressed - probably the wrong age-group.

Soupy Sat 23-Mar-13 22:46:42

1. After using the Advanced Night Repair Eye Serum Infusion, did you see any changes to the look and/or feel of the following areas? If so please give details.
- Fine lines
- Wrinkles
- Dark circles
- Dryness
- Puffiness.

I think my eyes must be beyond repair as I still have all of the above! DH has taken photos for me each week but I honestly cannot say that I have noticed a difference.

2. What three words would you say best describes this product?

Light, liquid, quality

3. Do you think you will continue to use Advanced Night Repair Eye Serum Infusion in the future? If so why? If not why not?

I will continue in hope but won't buy any more as I don't feel it's making a difference. I also find it too liquid; would prefer a cream.

4. If it came up in conversation, would you recommend it to a friend? If so, why? If not, why not?

I would certainly tell others to try it but it just hasn't worked for me although I think it is a quality product.

Elegran Sat 30-Mar-13 00:15:42

If you do the jigsaws on Jigidi DO NOT be caught by an ad for "testers wanted for beauty products". They will send you samples of anti-wrinkle creams etc for "just the postage". If you read the terms and conditions (I did not!! until after I had sent them the postage) you find that you have them to evaluate, and if you don't return them within a fortnight, they will then remove the full value from your account. After that they will send you more each month - and remove the full amount (about £70) from your account each month. Googling them found that many people have been unable to stop this.

I have shifted all but a couple of pounds from my current account to a different accoiunt, so they could be disappointed if they try that on me. It has happened on the evening of Good Friday, so I was lucky to have internet banking, otherwise I would have had to wait until Tuesday to contact my bank.

Elegran Sat 30-Mar-13 00:19:57

I must add that this is nothing to do with the genuine testing in previous posts. I put it on here because I thought that those of us with an interest in eye products might be tempted to "test" other beauty products.

The name of the firms involved are Collagenta and Dead Sea Kit.
