St Ives Advanced Therapy Lotion Collagen Elastin 18 Ounces

I bought St. Ives Advanced Body Moisturizer, Renewing Collagen Elastin 18 fl oz in June, 2012, for my hands and body. Works wonderfully for both, as I expected. For my face I used other products, none of which met my expectations: Lancome Visionnaire Advanced Skin Corrector for $56.99 (sells right now on Amazon for up to $114.99 + $4.99 shipping); and various L'Oreal and L'Occitane products. Last week I purchased another product, still trying to reduce the appearance of the fine wrinkles on my face: Smashbox Photo Finish Primer Color Correcting blend; $31.00 + $5.99 shipping right now on Amazon. (It not only claims to reduce fine wrinkles, but counteracts dark spots--I also have pregnancy induced dark spots on my face.) I always read the "how-to-use" directions, and saw that the Smashbox product is to be applied over clean, moisturized skin. Okay--except that my moisturizer was in my purse in another room. The St. Ives Advanced Body Moisturizer was right here at hand, so I thought, why not try it on my face this one time? I felt I needed to let my face absorb the St. Ives moisturizer before adding the Smashbox product, so I busied myself around the house, then remembered I wanted to try the new primer. I started to put the primer on when I saw in surprise that the St. Ives moisturizer by itself had achieved what the other products had not--my fine wrinkles were smoothed away! For under $15.00 for 18oz! That's probably the equivalent of thousands of $$$ of the other products! I'm exaggerating, but I am so happy I tried this on my face. I did end up using the primer,too; I think it helped with my coloring somewhat but I may have to just love my pregnancy blemishes... Read more

I suffer from Ichthyosis, a genetically inherited dry skin disease that is treatable but not curable. I have tried almost every possible lotion and cream on the market to treat this disease and St Ives Collagen Elastin for Severely Dry Skin is the best treatment I have come across thus far. I have been using this lotion for about 8 years now. In comparison to other "non-scented" lotions St Ives has the most pleasant scent of all and it is NOT overpowering at all. It blends into your skin almost immediately after putting in on and will leave your body moisturized over a 24hr period. If you suffer from extremely dry skin or chapped skin during the winter time this lotion will give you a mild tingling/burning sensation but that's how you know this lotion works. It's not any different than using a strong toothpaste or mouthwash that really cleans your teeth. I HIGHLY recommend this product to anyone who uses lotion regularly. You will notice a difference in it's application and the way your skin looks and feels. Read more

SERIOUSLY CANNOT LIVE WITHOUT THIS STUFF IT'S SO GREAT. Smells great, feels great, and it's a lot better than many other daily lotions I've tried. I wish it didn't contain alcohol but my skin doesn't seem to notice so no complaints. Read more
