At 38, I'm starting to get some wrinkles around the corners of my eyes and mouth. They're not too noticeable - yet - but I definitely want to minimize them as much as possible. I was intrigued when contacted to do a review of the skincare line Bioque, who uses a scientific approach to skincare to do more than just cover up. Bioque products deliver over 80% beneficial natural compounds below the surface to help skin appear more youthful. They use a high quality of peptides, botanicals, and vitamins, and none of their products are tested on animals or contain parabens.
The most popular product is Serum XL, which is an anti-aging wrinkle appearance reducer, and has been very popular among celebrities, earning it the name of "serum of the stars". I chose to review this product, a BOTOX alternative.
The Serum XL isn't thick and creamy, like I would have expected. It is a white, liquidy substance, which I spread around my eyes and mouth twice a week for 2 1/2 weeks prior to taking the below picture.
I am not wearing any makeup in this picture, but you can just barely see the lines around my eyes and the corners of my mouth. They have definitely been minimized in this picture compared to how they were prior to starting to use Bioque. Perhaps even more impressive was the fact that my skin felt much firmer after such a short period of time. The difference, while subtle, was very pleasing.

Good Morning :) How convenient that you are having this give-away...I was just reading yesterday about fine line reducers and have it on my 'need now' list :) I'd love to try this product.

Interesting product. It would be better to try that than botox.
ReplyDeleteOf course in a few more years, you won't be able to see the wrinkles without reading glasses.
I used to use their facial cleanser. It smells like heaven and leaves my face so soft. Thanks for reminding me. I am going to find the website and order some more.
ReplyDeleteHave a great Thursday Lisa !!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like some pretty awesome stuff AND they don't test on animals which is a huge plus for me :)
ReplyDeleteYou are gorgeous . . .
ReplyDeleteYou are awesome - now and always -

at 50, my lines and wrinkles are setting in well. if there was a way to reverse them without constantly having to apply a product to 'plump' or 'fix', i'd think about it. but at this point, i'm okay with it.
ReplyDeleteWould LOVE to win this for the wrinkles around my poor eyes.
ReplyDeleteSince I just received some Bioque recently I won't be entering -- but I do love their products!
ReplyDeleteI learned that they have a product called Eye Restore. I so need that. Allergy eyes!
ReplyDeleteCruelty-free—Bioque conducts its skincare efficacy research on cultured human skin cells; None of the ingredients used in Bioque products or any Bioque product is tested on animals. I like that!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this...Bioque has never - and will never - do any animal testing. We use only the best, safest, cruelty-free ingredients, regardless of cost.
ReplyDeleteLOVE and respect that:)
What Missy said. I have so much respect for companies who don't use the parabens, and especially those that don't test on animals. I have never tried, Bioque, but will now. My just turned 50 face needs somethin'!
ReplyDeleteOK, I need some of this. You look great!
ReplyDeleteI learned that Dr. Vittorio Bonomo created Bioque!

Wow! It sounds like a good thing to try. I'm going to look into it and see how $$ it is. :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like an amazing product. I like products that are cruelty-free. I am glad it is working for you.
ReplyDeleteAt nearly 66, I'll take all the help I can get with minimal work ....:)JP
ReplyDeleteI learned that they do not test on animals. That is so important to me.

I learned that Rodbell’s discoveries relied on a unique knowledge of cellular processes which led to Bioque’s development of simple, naturally-based compounds that dramatically improved the appearance of aged skin. These additional discoveries then progressed to become signal technology—the language by which biochemical messages effectively pass through cellular walls—to deliver these compounds into skin cells with maximum effectiveness and efficiency. This combination of highly potent ingredients and a Nobel Prize–winning based delivery system helped to support the repair and rejuvenation of a more youthful appearance to the skin. The result? less revealing, less visible lines and wrinkles.

Bioque products do not contain any parabens
ReplyDeleteI learned that Bioque's philosophy requires that the company uses only the best and safest cruelty-free ingredients.

No parabens, no animal testing! And the firming lotion looks like exactly what my under-eye carry-ons need.
