Love this stuff! Just had a sample to try but now going to order the full-size. It does an instant firming and lifting, visible immediately.
I used it under my makeup and it smoothed out some areas I was less than thrilled with. Can't wait to see the results of the long term use, just based on this.
Having just tried the overpriced and extremely complicated Peter Thomas Roth unwrinkle products, this is a great fix-all for a visible lift without botox or surgery.
The results lasted all day and no breakouts!

Hi Annie,
This sounds like a great product and it is reasonably priced too! Do you use mineral make up over it as recommended?

Thanks!

Thank you, Annie! I've been looking for a good Matrixyl product ever since Candy stopped selling her fab one.

Just ordered some now. Very Happy

Some days I use mineral makeup but some days I use MF High Definition Makeup that I mix with an illuminator or Revision.
Majorb-Let me know what you think. It does remind me of Candy's, which I had used at one time. This seems to tighten without a weird look which I had with the PTR wrinkle stuff and less complex. I found it does well using a tad more than less, but it doesn't ball up.
I am about to place my order as well but I had wanted to use my sample of the protein hair treatment that you mix into conditioner first. I may order that as well.
I love how reasonable their prices are to get products that my skin actually responds to!
I also wanted to try their eye creams/gels.

I certainly will, Annie. If it's anything like Candy's, then I'm pretty sure I'll love it.

Please do let us know about any other of her products that you try. Your other review is also intriguing me and I might try that next time, too.

Thanks again for the rec! Very Happy

QueenieLau718-They just don't seem to be as well known yet, but every other review I have read was good. That's how I found them.
I like the fact that their prices are more resonable, but I like the fact more that it works for me and I can be pretty picky. I have returned a jar of LaMer before, so price is never my indicator!
I am trying the protein for hair today that you mix with conditioner, so we will see how well that works.

I just ordered this because I've been looking around for a new Matrixyl product - they ship internationally too which is great. I get so annoyed when companies advertise on the net and then don't ship to overseas countries. For those interested, shipping was $11.95 to Australia.

Let me know what you think and how it compares. This is my first (other than a sample of Candy's) so I have nothing to really go on.
I don't use it every day, just under my makeup days until my full size gets in.

Thanks Keliu, as I'm in Australia as well and also get quite annoyed when they don't ship internationally after you have trawled the site and found all these items you want to then find out that you can't get it, quite annoying.

I wanted to order from Sephora and found that they don't ship internationally which is very annoying as they have some items I would love.
Great price for the shipping, as some companies that do ship internationally charge an arm and a leg!! Shock
I will be off to check out the site now and see how much damage I can do. Bad Grin

Is this any different than the 20% Matrixyl 3000 Serum from NCN, other than the current sale price? Do you have a full ingredients list for the BabyFace product? The one given on the website isn't accurate.

That's what I'm interest to find out! I only purchased this because I've just run out of the NCN product and this was cheaper. I don't believe I've seen any skin tightening from the NCN product either.

I have only tried a few NCN products but not the Matrixyl Serum.
What I like is that for the price, it does what I need and want. If I had paid a huge amount, my expectations would have been much higher.

Got the full sized in last night and so glad because I had been using it very sparingly to make the sample last.
I love the size, ease of packaging and the shippping speed! The dispensor is very easy to use as well. Simplicity in an age of over-packaging!
Loving the product, not a miracle product but delivers a good value for the money for a little extra help. Looking forward to seeing the long-term results.

I'm liking it so far, having only used in 2 days in a row just yet. There appears to be an immediate firming action (temporarily), and I'm looking forward to seeing how it works on a long-term basis.

It was included in my order of the HA Serum, along with the one for hair protein. I also got one for an Alpha Hydroxy product but haven't tried it yet.
I requested any samples in the info part of my order. Never hurts to ask, and especially not in this case!
You can also email or call them and tell them you heard about their products and I bet they would send you some!

Just checked the BabyFace Skin Care website - they have a lot of interesting stuff there . . . Has anybody tried any other products?

Any thoughts on their 15% MAP Serum?

I know and all of the prices are pretty reasonable given the sizes! I had asked for a few more samples with my last order but didn't get any. Sad
I had this site bookmarked for ages on the recommendation of a few forum members a while back.
I was waiting to order the HA Serum when my Proheal ran out as a cheaper alternative. I feel like HA is one that can easily be substituted. Well I certainly didn't sacrifice anything as it is beyond my expectations for an HA Serum. I have tried a few of the cheaper, GOW and some homemades and all were just too tacky or too runny. This was just right! Laughing

I just tried the 20% Matrixyl 3000 High Concentration Serum; however i found it doesn't absorb that well as described. May be the particial size is not tiny enough; therefore it just on the surfuce of skin.

As noted the particile size is very essential to the product, even they are containing the same ingredient.
