+ 3 Month Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Review

I just wanted to update everyone on my progress with the Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair serum.

After two months of using the product, as you have probably read from my 2 month review, I saw my fine lines fading more although they did not disappear completely.

I've just finished my first bottle after a little over 3 months of use in total and the difference between month two and month three was not that significant to tell you the truth.  I do feel my skin is a lot smoother and the lines are not as deep but they are still there.  I am not attaching a photo to this post as I don't feel the changes will be noticeable.

So, you're probably wondering if I recommend this product and whether I've gone into my second bottle.  Well, I did.  I recently purchased a new bottle and will continue to use this product.  Why you may ask?  Well...if you're looking for a product that will get rid of your wrinkles and fine lines completely, this is not the product for you but I love how my skin feels now that I've been using it for some time and the fine lines have definitely become more shallow.  My skin tone is so much more even and my skin is much softer.  It does overall look a lot smoother too.  It's given me a healthier glow and who knows, in a few more months, there may be even more changes.

For those of you looking to even up your skin tone, diminish your fine lines and improve the overall texture and look of your skin, this is a fabulous product.

However, if you are looking for botox-like effects on your fine lines and wrinkles, this is not the product for you.  You're probably better off with botox.

Remember, when you do try a new product, give it a few months before you really decide on whether it was worth it or not.  Results don't usually appear out of the blue.  With anything, it does take time, so be patient and don't just give up on it right away.  If in about 2 - 3 months it hasn't done anything at all, then you can be assured, it hasn't worked for you.

I've got a few more posts coming your way soon after a bit of a hiatus, so please stay tuned!!

Estee Lauder Advance Night Repair 2 Month Progress!!

A couple months ago I bought the Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair serum and put up a post on how I was going to track the progress of my skin after using the product over a span of three months.  It's been two months since I've been using this product and the results are as follows.

Problem with lines on the sides of my forehead and deep line in the front:

After two months, I've noticed a significant reduction in the depth of the lines on the sides of my forehead.  They used to be quite deep with sort of a scaly pattern but now they are incredibly shallow and just look like very fine, shallow horizontal line...how skin actually looks.

 

Problem with deep lines in the front of the forehead:

I complained about a couple lines in the front of my forehead that I found to be significantly deep.  One of the lines has actually disappeared while the second one which was deeper than the first is much more shallow than it used to be.

Acne scaring and discolouration:

The acne scars have significantly lightened and I can barely notice them.  There is one particular scar that I was quite concerned with.  It was the darkest mark on my cheek but has now lightened significantly as well.  However, I don't think it will disappear completely as it is not as superficial of a scar as the rest, but there are definite improvements.

Overall:

As I mentioned before, I am also using the Estee Lauder Idealist serum together with the Advanced Night Repair.  I feel the combination of the two has made my skin more even and blemishes are really starting to fade.  Of course, I cannot say that the positive results are from one or the other as I've been using them together, but from what I've heard through other blogs, it's more likely from the Night serum rather than the Idealist serum which has had mixed reviews.

So far, I would say I am incredibly pleased with the results.  I will continue to use this product and I'm excited to see more results from long term use.

Stay tuned!!!  I will update you in one more month!!!

Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair!!

I don't know how many of you religiously read reviews on beauty products but there are a number of products that have had amazing reviews from users all over the world.  Yes, you'll see reviews in magazines and articles that show you before and after photos, but how do you know if any of those are actually digitally enhanced?

I'm about to do something that I consider quite brave and in order to do so, I will strip off all my makeup and show you every flaw on my face.  I recently bought the Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair serum.  I've heard great things about how it's one of the few products out there that not only prevents future damage to the skin but also repairs it.  I was battling between trying out Strivectin SD and the Advanced Night Repair serum and decided to go with the latter because it had outstanding reviews and the former, although has a lot of hype around it, did not have stellar reviews.

The Advanced Night Repair promises to reduce the signs of aging such as fine lines, wrinkles, scars, age spots etc.  Apparently, it is so popular due to its effectiveness, a bottle is sold every 8 seconds around the world. I have been noticing lines forming on my forehead over the last year and I'm not so sure if they have gotten worse or I'm just more aware of them because I no longer have bangs to cover them.  Nevertheless, the fine lines and past acne scarring have been bothering me a lot and I'm determined to find a product other than botox that will get rid of them or at least significantly reduce them.

So, over the next few months, I plan on showing you the progress, starting with this blog in which I have only used the product for one night. Keep in mind, I am also using the Estee Lauder Idealist Skin Illuminator which is supposed to reduce dark spots as well.  However, I do believe any significant progress would be more credited to the Advance Night Repair as the Idealist Skin Illuminator had some pretty average reviews. 

Here are my problem areas!!  Let's see if there is a difference in about a month or so. You can be the judge for yourself and I promise you these photos will have no photoshopping at all. 

Problem: Fine lines across my forehead and especially on both the left and right sides

Problem:  Acne scarring and uneven skintone
