Day 7 – GLOSSYBOX ADVENT-URES – Glossybox Skincare 3-in-1 Moisturiser

There was a certain amount of inevitability that the Glossybox Advent Calendar would contain at least one product from their recently launched Glossybox Skincare range! I received an Eye Boost Cream in my August 2020 subscription box and have been using it every morning and it performs as expected. I can’t have enough moisturiser and look forward to including this 3-in-1 moisturiser in my daily skincare routine. The packaging is in a beautiful pink with black text, not dissimilar to our Rhubarb and Burble colour scheme, so what’s not to like!

TESTIMONIES

Following a two-week trial with 110 panellists between August and December 2019:

​90% of women agreed that 3-in-1 Moisturiser left their skin looking and feeling instantly hydrated​
85% of women agreed that 3-in-1 Moisturiser left their skin looking and feeling instantly protected from moisture loss​
84% of women agreed that 3-in-1 Moisturiser left their skin feeling instantly plumped with moisture.

First Impressions: Testing a small blob on the back of my hand revealed a white, light cream that blended out a long way, so go easy! It has a very pleasant, subtle, floral fragrance. I have dry-combination skin, so hopefully this will suit my skin type. I will add this to my vanity cabinet and let you know how it goes.

Day 3 – GLOSSYBOX ADVENT-URES – Filorga NCEF-REVERSE Supreme Multi-Correction Cream

I’ve heard of the brand, but I am not familiar with Laboratoires Filorga Paris products, so this will be an interesting item to try. It has a scientific name, which I hope means it has some good quality ingredients in it! A quick look at the price tag and this is obviously a high-end brand, so definitely looking forward to trying this out. It is a deluxe mini size, so I doubt it will last for more than a few days. The packaging is basic but seems to be the industry standard for such products.

Filorga NCEF-REVERSE Supreme Multi-Correction Cream

Filorga NCEF-REVERSE Supreme Multi-Correction Cream

Apply onto cleansed skin morning and night.
RRP / Deluxe mini 7ml, worth £10.78. Full-size 50ml, RRP £77.00

Filorga website description:

A REGENERATING SKINCARE FORMULA, WHICH IS AS CONCENTRATED AS A MESO-INJECTION FOR A BOOSTED PRO-YOUTH ACTION AND RENEWED SKIN QUALITY. 

INTENSIVE SKIN QUALITY RENEWAL [ACTIVATED REGENERATION]
The formula contains NCTF®, a unique polyrevitalizing complex developed by Laboratoires FILORGA ̶ the 1st French laboratory(2) in aesthetic medicine integrated for the first time at a concentration equivalent to a meso-injection(1).

OVER-ACTIVE CORRECTION [WRINKLES – FIRMNESS – RADIANCE]: Renowned active ingredients in the fight against aging [hyaluronic acid + collagen + vitamins A, H and E] combined with effectiveness boosters that act simultaneously to smooth wrinkles, reduce skin sagging and even out the complexion.

(1) Concentration equivalence of NCTF-Reverse® and our injectable polyrevitalizing solution [NCTF 135-HA].
(2) Founded in 1978.

First Impressions: I tested it on my hand. It absorbed well and has a pleasant floral scent, which is not overpowering. I am looking forward to trying this product and hoping for some luxurious skincare benefits. I will keep you updated on my experiences. I can see that this product is available in Debenhams (although not likely for much longer due to them going into administration) and M&S.

Update: I have now finished this product and it was not a disappointment. I felt I needed to use a lot of the product as it had quite a stiff formula. However, I could feel that it tightened my skin. I don’t think a wetter formulation would achieve this, even though it would probably feel more hydrating. I had no problems with it at all and I have seen it on the TK Maxx website along with a serum which I am now thinking of trying: https://www.tkmaxx.com/uk/en/women/beauty/skincare/skincare-sets/supreme-skin-quality-set/p/42004050
