Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

With drawers full of almost completely-used moisturizers (name a brand, cheap or pricey and I have it) and prescription grade retinol products that were either greasy, too strong/weak, thick/thin, ineffective, I tried this product, resigned to toss it into the drawer in a month, too. Skeptical of anything that claims it's the "BEST" (thought I'd love to prove them wrong!), I bought a tube. I used it daily without expectations of a miracle...or even noticeable difference, because I liked how it blended into my skin, made it feel (lush but very slightly taut, and very smooth). Though I use it nightly, when I use it in the daytime, my foundation (Lancome) goes on without a problem. I started off using too much product (it's a huge tube!) but over time I've found less works just as well. I use it on my face, neck, and back of my hands. Now, after 5 months of use, even my husband can see a difference in my neck, face, and chest skin tone, lightening of pigmentation/dark spots, tightening of pores and smoothness--and he notices that sort of thing! My girlfriends all remarked on the changes as well. One of them asked for a tube as her birthday gift, so now she's been using it for 2 months and loves it! I started using this at age 66, so my deep wrinkles are set, but my finer wrinkling only diminished when I had lots of moisturizer on. Now, even without the moisturizer, the fine lines are gone! I'm afraid to stop using it...ever! I'm aware than not everyone will have my results, but I hope they stick with this product and see what happens. I was 99% doubtful, 1% hopeful, and am now a 100% believer. I almost hate saying this, but turns out for me, it is the "best". I just reread my review and realize it reads like the product is 'too good to be true'. Well, my hands are still quite pigmented and spotty and wrinkly as ever (I swim daily all year-round), and this product is pricey (unless you use it sparingly, which is to say that if you allow it to soak right into towel-dry skin...I don't use toners...then apply more and it feels damp or like it's sitting on your skin, you know you don't need more than the initial amount). So it hasn't worked everywhere I've tried it. But for my face/neck/chest, this product works!
