Lately I have been really wanting to try some new things, especially when it comes to a skin routine. Although I luckily do not suffer with much bad skin, my skin care routine is a little boring and I think it needs livening up a bit.
Recently I went into my local Boots store to ask for some information on the new Benefit Instant Comeback Serum and was very fortunate to be able to try it. The lady on the counter offered me the option to have a full skin routine test using Benefits new face products so of course I said yes.
First thing she did was show me the Benefit Instant Comeback Serum bottle which I just instantly fell in love with! It's a gorgeous vintage bottle with a cork effect top and blue tinted glass. Despite not trying the product yet, I was already in favor of this bottle being sat on my bedroom shelf for decoration - its just too cute! The bottle contains 30.0mL / 1.0 US fl. oz of product which I felt could perhaps be bigger for the price, although saying that I do think this product will last a long time.
Benefit claim that " Instant comeback face serum instantly boosts the youthful look of
skin...firming, smoothing, energising and protecting against visible
signs of aging." But did it achieve this?
She then applied it to my cleansed face and I was surprised at how light weight it felt. I'm not a lover of putting things on my face but this was just gorgeous. After a long morning at work, this serum instantly made me feel fresher and more awake. It makes your face feel so smooth and soft. It was like having a facial at a spa. My face felt cleaner and tighter. I can honestly say that it does what it claims to do on the bottle. I was also surprised at how little of the product she had to use to cover my face. She literally used a tiny dot and it spreaded across my face effortlessly. That is why I think you would only use a small amount of product and it would last a long time. After this she then used the Benefit Total Moisture Facial Cream which I will be reviewing another time.
So lets talk the price? I understand and know that Benefit products are long lasting and always worth the money (from my experience) but will I be purchasing this? I really enjoyed experiencing this product for the first time but can't help feeling a little disappointed by the price which was £36.00. For an every day face serum I actually think this is quite expensive and I wish it was more around the £20-£30 mark to make it slightly more affordable. However, I do think that on payday I will be returning to Boots to purchase this. I was overall very impressed with the quality and difference it made to my face which infact lasted all day. I also love the packaging which maybe some reason as to why it costs what it does. Payday is coming soon and I think another trip to Boot's is in order.
