Estée Lauder Resilience Lift Review

I've been trying this product out for the past week and it's time to share my verdict. It's the Estée Lauder Resilience Lift Firming/Sculpting Face and Neck Creme SPF 15 (Dry Skin) 50ml (which I got for $154, with free delivery, from Sephora Online).

There are two versions- one for normal/combination skin type, and the other one which I am using is for dry skin.

Resilience Lift is not just hydrating but it is also supposed to sculpt your face and neck skin. Upon application, I was glad to find that there's no sharp or stinging feeling (which I was expecting a sculpting cream to have). I would say that the immediate tightening and lifting sensations are quite subtle. So do not expect to feel any sudden tautness to your skin. But what I do see and feel in an obvious way is that my skin tone evens out a lot, there is a dewy soft glow to my skin, and my skin looks plumper.

It is a thick cream... and I'm usually not keen on thick creams because my dry skin doesn't absorb thick creams as well as it does a lighter lotion texture. But I'm pleased to say that it does absorbs easily, and while there is still a lingering moistness to the skin after application, it's not a gunky thick residual type feeling.

Just a little dab amount to form a thin coat will do. This will create a very smooth base under make up. Use too much and I find that my foundation won't sit well. So this is definitely one of those products with a lot of mileage in a small tub.



 

I find that this product makes my skin look good enough even without putting on foundation. So I'm often out and about sans make up. It's almost like it has a pearls in it which glide onto the skin and give it a glow, at the same time hiding minor imperfections in skin tone. The immediate result is plumper and more youthful looking skin, without any tight or uncomfortable sensations.  I like it! :)
