So Far So Good
I've been using Jeunesse Instantly Ageless for years I tried this because I'm looking for a product that does the same thing for less. I figure they all use the same ingredient, a sodium silicate, to achieve the same results, tightened skin, and Jeunesse is expensive and comes in tiny vials that make for a lot of product loss at the bottom of each vial.So far so good. I'm getting the same results. Smooth under eyes. I put it on as a test and it held for 8 hours. Haven't tried it for longer but that's a good sign. I've had Jeunesse on for 14 hours and it held. An 8 hour first test is all good.I'm seeing negative reviews and I think some of those are because of not knowing how to use this. It takes trial and error to be good at this. Think of the first time you tried to put on liquid eye liner or false eye lashes or contacts. It took a few tries to get it right. This is the same. It takes practice and trial and error to get it right.Sodium silicate liquid must go on OVER makeup. If you put it on first and put makeup on top of it, that breaks it down, smears it out, and it won't work. Ditto for sunscreen and such. Put this on last.Sodium silicate works best with water based and powder foundations. Oil based foundations break down the sodium silicate compound and it won't work as well with those.When putting it on on top of foundation, stroke it into the foundation in the direction you want the skin to lift. It will always follow the direction you apply it in. Do not stroke down.If you put it on top of liquid foundation and the liquid foundation starts to smear, reapply the liquid foundation under the eyes and go again. It's easier with powder foundation, powder foundation blends more readily with the compound.The two foundations I've used this with this type of product with the most success are Smashbox water based liquid foundations and E.L.F. powder foundations.It takes practice to get the amount right. If you put too much on, it will be crusty and will look wrinkly and patchy. If you're looking crusty, wrinkly, or patchy, you put too much on.If it isn't taking at all, you probably put too little on. Add a little. You don't have to take it or the make up off to do that. Just reapply on top of what is there.Do not rub this into the skin. It's not lotion. It's not supposed to absorb. It works on the surface. Think of it like eye shadow. You don't rub eye shadow into the skin. You blend it on top of skin. This is the same.Cover as little area as possible to get the results you want. I only use this right below the inner and center eye area and stroke up. That pulls everything up I need and the thing about this is, it smooths and tightens the skin under the eyes, but it also creates a surface area that is a little more brittle than normal under eye skin. That will crease more than normal, and you'll end up with a lot of lines under your eyes you don't need when you smile if you smear this all over. So, if you only need it in a small area, only use it in that small area, don't smear it all over.I love sodium silicate under eye products. They make for great close ups in photos and look great in Zoom meetings. But. It took practice and trial and error learning how to use them. Don't give up if you gave it one try and it didn't work. Change the amount, change the application, change the foundation makeup you are using. Put it on AFTER foundation, not before. Stroke it on the direction you want the skin to lift. Just keep working at it, just like you did with any other new makeup product you never used before.

Only HONEST REVIEW that hasn’t been bought and paid for!
Where do I begin ? I WILL be posting a video of this MESS of a product! The reviews on here saying, “It TOTALLY works, and that they just need to find the right method of applying. So that it doesn’t leave the white spots.”Well, at first I thought they didn’t read the directions? Because it clearly says to apply a small amount on your hand and then apply the product with a small makeup brush. Not your fingertips. Right?,So anyways, after using this product for little over a week now and applying it EXACTLY as the directions said. I can HONESTLY say that no MATTER how you apply this product! You WILL have WHITE spots wherever you apply the product! NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO!! What I don’t understand is why? Would you wipe with water, with one of your makeup puffs? “Gently to make the white spots disappear”?! Wouldn’t water be wiping the product off your face?And it gets worse!! When you try to add your concealer/other makeup on top of this NIGHTMARE! That’s exactly what it becomes a NIGHTMARE!It became cake like consistency to where I had to wash my face! That was EVERY single time I tried to add my makeup on top of this crap!I have NO idea what these people were thinking? Or how much they were paid for supporting this product? But SAVE your money! Because they are lying to you!! I WASTED my money! When I should of just looked into Anti-fatigue concealer because they have come along way!So lastly, I saw ZERO difference in my face! I saw the same bags under my eyes!, and if you want to try this product? Just know that your THROWING your hard earned money away!I WILL be posting a full video IF my review makes it to AMAZON? Since they sensor everything and WANT you to buy HORRIBLE products!

Best product for eye baggies!
I've been using 'Instantly Ageless' firming cream for almost 8 yrs to tighten the luggage I carry under my eyes. It instantly became a daily ritual for me. But sometimes it just didn't work correctly and I'd have to wash it off and re-apply.Sometimes more than once. Now, it's not cheap, and re-applying was wasteful. Sometimes I'd have to re-apply a second time throughout the day if I had something going on in the evening. Plus it comes in small plastic vials that always leave some of the product unreachable unless I cut the bottom off to get to it and there's always still some left that's just wasted because I can't use it all and it will dry out if it's not sealed well.So, I decided to try something else and see if I could get a similar result. When I saw a TikTok video about Peter Thomas Roth firming cream I decided to give it a try. I was down to minimal vials of my Instantly Ageless cream and prayed I would receive this cream before I ran out and it would be at least as good as IA. I panic when I think I'll be out of it, because you know, I'm scary without it!So, the cream arrived. Whew! I was down to ONE VIAL! I applied it. I fanned it. I waited about less than a minute. And it worked! It actually worked BETTER than my previous cream! It was smoother. It didn't leave a crusty white residue and I couldn't see the outline of the product on my skin as I did with IA. So far it's gone on perfectly every time.I gave it my ultimate test and slept in it (I got up about 14 hours from the time I put it on) and it still looked perfect when I got up. I probably wouldn't have even had to reapply for awhile. I love that it comes in ONE tube also, instead of several small vials. It's about the same price, volume wise, as IA, because with all the waste I had with reapplying and never getting it all out of the little vials, I believe PTR cream will actually even save me some money.The IA is a pink sort of pasty solution, which I didn't really like the texture of and it took me forever to figure out just the amount I needed. And still sometimes I got it wrong. The PTR is a clear kind of liquidy gel, if that makes sense. It just goes on so much smoother and in my opinion, lasts much longer.I know some people say it leaves a white residue. If it's applied correctly it should not do that. Be sure to shake the tube well before applying and just use a tiny amount until you figure out just how much you need.I just can't say enough good things about this product. I will never go back to my previous cream nor do I believe I will ever feel the need to seek out another cream.I hope this review will help others to find the help they seek for those nasty bags under the eyes.UPDATE: I've been using this product for over a month now and im still absolutely thrilled with it. I wish I'd found it years ago.
