Advantages: Smooth hydrating, luxurious cream. Disadvantages: Expensive compared to high street products
ChanelPrecision Hydramax Moisture Boost Cream is a truly luxurious treat for your skin. I was lucky enough to be treated to this gorgeous product during a pre-christmas shopping trip, which made life a lot easier for my boyfriend as the product was recommended at the Chanel counter to us based upon my skin type. I would highly recommend anyone considering luxury skin products such as this to visit the actual in store counter to try before they shop online and buy. Plus they often give you free samples to take home, fantastic!
So whats it like?
I have problems with fairly dry skin so I needed something to hydrate my skin without making it greasy and bringing me out in spots. The blue cream is very thick and well, creamy, which actually makes it great value for money as you only need apply a small amount to your face. Once ...
Advantages: Perfect for troubled skin and a luxurious treat Disadvantages: May be too heavy for oily skins - therefor go for hydramax gel
I have been using Chanel Hydramax Cream for 6 years because it really is the only cream i have ever got on with. My skin is dry and sensitive and this is just so so soothing and comforting, the texture is thick and creamy, you can apply a very small amount which sinks in quickly but more often i use a large blob which makes for a nice buttery massage after which it will take around 5 minutes to sink in completely. This makes a perfect base for make up with no clashing of textures or greasy residue. Your skin is left feeling soft, plumped and comfortable and definetly like what you expect having just used an expensive cream. The scent is just like strawberry angels delight thanks to fruit and flower extracts, this also contains lavender and shea butter. The price tag is a little scary but in my opinion this cream is worth every penny, one ...
Advantages: Formulations for all skin types (cream, gel and lotion), smoother skin that feels toned after a couple of applications, matching serum top-up for extra dry skin, one jar lasts for ages and smells fresh, clean and gorgeous. Disadvantages: Prohibitively expensive for a straight-up, non anti-ageing facial moisturiser. Lightly perfumed and non-hypoallergenic - unsuitable for sensitive skin.
Dehydration appears to be the new buzz-word for the skincare and cosmetics industry. Everything from the hair on your head to the nails on your toes needs to 'drink more water' which can only be done - say the alchemists of cosmetology - by smearing semi-organic fats and acids that owe more H2SO4 than H2O liberally over every part of your body. It's all twaddle, but twaddle that's resulted this time in whole ranges of creams and lotions that claim to do one job: moisturise.
For the long-term cosmetically confused, like me, who've spent years arguing the losing point across the cosmetics counter that it's all well and good having silk, elastane and extract of TARDIS in it BUT WILL IT MOISTURISE MY SKIN? They're all at it now - moisture delivery and the War Against Dehydration (WAD) is officially ON! And Chanel are late into the fray ...
