It claims to have 'a lifting effect without surgery' and blow me, it actually works! I've reached that stage in life where I'm starting to look a bit like this so I'm very interested anything that will counteract it. After application you can actually feel the product tightening the skin. Following a week or so of use, my complexion was visibly less saggy and far clearer & healthy. I received a lot of complements on how great I was looking.
One of the active ingredients is hyaluronic acid (hyaluronan) which is a component of human skin and is involved in tissue repair so I guess that's the anti aging bit of the formula. The company has also run clinical trials on it's products, the results of which are published on it's website. The nerdy part of me was impressed by this because there's a lot of smoke & mirrors and frankly down right deception in the cosmetics industry.
It's really easy to apply. Just put about half a stopper's worth of product in the palms of your hands and smooth over the face.
The only problem is, it doesn't seem to be widely available in the UK. You can get samples through beauty box companies like Birchbox or on eBay but I couldn't find a UK website for it. It's also eyewateringly expensive - $157 on the US site or €95 on the French site. I'd buy it all the time if I could afford it but I think I'll have to restrain myself and use it only before big events.

well if you look like that bulldog then you must be pretty cute!! in Japan they go crazy for anything collagen - it is a hefty price tag though but interesting to see you say it worked so that is promising!
Tee hee! Thank you. x
