Elancyl: Slimming & Firming Cares

Let’s start the Tone & Slim File

(tests of slimming creams), cause we are all obsessed with the Californian “bikini body” (as says a L.A. coach friend, lol!), with the Cellulite Offensive / Triple Impact Embedded Cellulite (1) and the Concentré Ventre-Taille / Slimming & Firming Care for the Stomach and Waist (2) of the French skincare brand Elancyl. A friend who took 20 kg during a pregnancy and have lost them many months after her childbirth, explains me her first problems were the skin slackening and cellulite. To recover her great body shape, she’s used those two products twice a day for one year and more (wow!). I was so impressed by her result and curious, I’ve tested them for one month!                  

The goal : to refine and tone the body shape. For one month, I’ve healthy eaten (not a diet – this word is an insult in my vocabulary!). I’ve never believed I can loose centimeters only with creams, without having a diet (ouch bad word!) and doing sports. But I really believe a good skincare can improve the appearance of the skin! And if you are regular, those two creams are amazing!              

The non-sticky texture is fresh and nice and quickly penetrates the skin. First I was a bit surprised by the green color of the creams! Daily applied (by massage), we can quickly notice results. For me it started with a a slight improvement in the general appearance of the skin, softer then smoother and toner. Definitely I found my stomach and waist more shaped (the resculpting action). To conclude, those two slimming creams work!

Caudalie: The Vinexpert Regimen For Skin Lacking Vitality

It began more and less one month ago

at the Caudalie Vinexpert line‘s ten years celebration. Do I really need to repeat today’s anti-aging is for any women: from mature women fighting against wrinkles to the youngest loosing firmness after a drastic diet ? Every women, you and me, mom… Seduced by the packaging, few days later I decided to test the famous Resveratrol patented and stabilized by Caudalie (named “the best anti-ageing molecule” by Harvard’s Department of Medicine”, “Thanks to Resveratrol, the wine is able to renew itself several centuries“,  Caudalie). 

The first days, I didn’t pay attention to the draws inside box. Too bad, those draws explain how using the serums (1 & 2) and the creams (3 & 4). Industrious, I stick the draws on a thick sheet I bring with me to the bathroom to memorise the right gesture of each product!

Following this order, every moorning and night, I apply the Vinexpert Firming serum (1) that contains the most Resveratrol concentration. Then the Vinexpert Anti-aging serum eyes and lips perfectly moisturizes my higly sensitive eyelid contour. The  two serums have a pleasant light texture, absolutely not sticky.

As a day cream, I use Vinexpert Radiance day fluid SPF10 (3). The fluid texture penetrates really quickly and matifies my complexion, protecting the skin with a SPF10. After few weeks, it makes my pores of skin smaller and brighten my complexion all day long. Recently I’ve really noticed it! 

And  the best for last :  the Vinexpert Night infusion cream (4) is my bless cream I love to apply each night. Its amazing thick texture nourrishes and regenates my skin. My “hug” cream that smoothes and relaxes my features. For one month my skin’s completely changed, most of my spots have been reduced to match skin’s natural, overall tone. Toner, my outline of the face has a better shap. Repeating the same gesture twice a day is like a firming draining massage to the skin.

The Vinexpert regiment is my best beauty surprise after the summer holidays. Cause I’m not the kind to trust anti-aging creams! And when I started testing the products, I didn’t expect more than a good moisturazing! For ending I do love the very discret scent of Caudalie’s products and the fact they don’t have parabens, phenoxyethanol, artificial colorings, mineral oils… No testing on animals. And they are non-comedogenic. “What else?”.
