I want you to know how much these kinds of videos help me. Not just the content and product reviews, but the makeup you wear and the honesty of your close ups. I’m a very boring makeup wearer, and seeing you in different colours has helped me to step out and expand my comfort zone. Also seeing you without makeup and in close up with and without has shown me that actually I shouldn’t be bothered with signs of aging because I think you are beautiful even with a few lines so if they dont bother me on you then they shouldn’t bother me on me. X
Aww Tina thanks so much for this lovely comment, it means the world to me. I sometimes wonder if makeup and skincare videos are just too shallow and could I be doing something better with my time, but when I hear things like this and know its a help to someone I'm delighted and grinning ear to ear :0) Sometimes when I post a video I'm like "I can't believe I'm showing this to the world" lol. If only we could all age gracefully with acceptance lol. Hugs, Karen xx
Ahh that’s so sweet! I agree with you, she is real in everything she does and that is hard to find these days! Very refreshing and empowering! ❣️
It dies your wrinkles still look better after use thou. I wouldn't set it.
Always enjoy your honest, raw and thorough reviews!
Fascinating review, thank you Karen for going so in depth!
This is probably the best and most honest review I have seen for this product. I bought it a week ago and I’m still figuring out the different and best ways to use it. In my opinion it isn’t the miracle wonder it claims to be but can make a difference to severe under eye bags if you don’t wear foundation under your eyes.
Thank you for being so honest and informative!! 👏👏🥰🥰
We can always count on you to share from “you” 😊! Thanks for the review 💕♥️❤️!
Honestly I think your eyes look much better without the PTR, I see more deep wrinkles with it on you. Looks really pretty if you don’t smile but who wants to go around not smiling. Thank you for the review, you do amazing reviews and I trust you and your honesty and love how you show comparisons of your face, up close and personal, most utubers don’t do that.💖🥰 hugs and much love to Watson.🐾❤️
you’re right! when you smile there’s more wrinkles with the PTR product, that’s interesting. I guess it works for some people and some people it don’t go figure, I appreciate your totally honest with you, that’s one thing I say about RUclips some people are totally honest what they reviews and some people say and do anything to get reviews, They do not tell the about certain products at least what you did you said it worked for one thing and then it didn’t work when it came to your smiling so I guess you have to go around and not smile when you use the product, then that’s a waste of money unless you’re doing a photo shoot and they want you not to smile. 😃 🎈👩🏾🦲🥰
Very helpful review. I just ordered and look forward to seeing the results because I too, am very expressive. I do not use a concealer ... agree there to seven minutes on a workday.
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO, I NEEDED IT!
I saw the TikTok and was amazed! I decided to search YT to get an honest review. Thank you for the ‘real’ truth. I have a little under eye situation and thought I’d try this; but I think I’ll just stick with concealer because I smile way to much! 😂😀😀
I use the amount you use, even less than that, for both eyes and pat it on. I even take it under my brow and lift. Then I take a clean brush and wipe any white residue and put powder. I love how it improves the darkness and puffiness of my under eyes. It’s crazy how very little you need. It took me a long time to figure that out. 💙💜❤️
Is it drying?
How long does it last
Thank you for your outstanding review!
brilliant informative video Karen enjoyed it very much. Take care. X
Thanks Margaret! x
Best video of the product I had watched. 🙌
Thank you so much 🙏x
very accurate review... the wrinkles seemed to increase nearer to my eyes after using PTR...
Amazing video 🙌🏻🙌🏻 thank you!!
Thank you for an honest video! This product just arrived in the mail today but I haven't tried it yet. Yesterday, I got the Sudden Change serum and was testing it out. I found the same thing... my under eyes looked fine until I smiled and then the wrinkles seemed WAY worse. I'm going to keep trying it. The "active" ingredient that causes the tightening is different in the PTR one (silicates), so I figured why not try. Not sure if I can return the PTR product after I've opened it...
Thank you so so much for the review
I couldn't help to notice your beautiful skin. I love the tone and, the small pores, how hydrated it looked. Congratulations. Thank you for the review
You will have probably noticed some increased interest on this video. It has just gone viral on tik tok. Since you have the product, I was wondering whether you could do 2 little silly experiments. Can you try to apply it a) lying down and b) face upside down (I dunno, like your face hanging off the bed/sofa whilst keeping your face completely still, no talking, no moving anything at all? x
Hi Hunny, I've tried a couple of those freeze type products and although they look good at first but then they seem to break up and actually makes my under eye worse, exactly what happened in your photo....🌹🌹🌹Much Love, from Bella 🌹🌹🌹
I've been eyeing (no pun intended) that up for a while too. So good to see this video as all I've seen so far are still pictures with no expression. Love the honesty of this review. Don't think I'd be happy with it myself either. Looks great if you keep your face still but in all fairness - I'd probably be looking to use this for going to a wedding or special occasion and no way I'm gonna keep a straight face and not talk all day long!! That wouldn't be much fun. I'll stick with my niod fecc and hope that does something. It's certainly helping with one of my eyelids (the other eyelid needs surgery for sure - left eyelid drooping over my pupil - so trying to save up for a blepharoplasty)
Thank you again for your your hounest review! Very helpfull:) I think with bags it works best! For my mom, upper and lower eye bags and a lot of all over wrinkles. But with the face cream as well, not only the eye cream. I’ve seen a black woman test both and even mixing it in her foundation, it looked so good!
I’m just so curious how it would do on my moms skin but on the other hand it is very expensive if it fails and makes it even worse:/. So i don’t know yet, wait a bit maybe lol
It’s like egg white on the skin . Forms a film but any movement and it distorts the skin
l put a drop of this eye serum with a drop of foundation and a drop of concealer on the back of my hand l use a small brush to blend these together then l wipe off most of it and brush it under my eyes inner and outer corners a small amount --perfection ! you have to work fast with small amounts the right brush makes all the difference l also put this around my nose on those smile lines
I just got this in last week. I started using it to see if it would make a difference and like you said I have a film left on my skin. I did get the water drench hyaluronic cloud cream hydrating moisturizer and the retinal fusion p.m. night serum hydrating retinol face serum. This is also supposed to help with wrinkles, uneven skin tone and texture etc. I started a new regimen with the retinal fusion & hydrating moisturizer. My skin does feel very soft and brighter. I do Botox so that helps tremendously, I do not do FILLERS. Oil of Olay has been my moisturizer for 20 years, PTR really seems like a good quality product and it’s going to take some time to see results. Thanks for the video, and when I try the firm eye tomorrow I will make sure to just use setting powder and see how that works.
Did this work for you?
Thanks for doing this.
Oil free concealer works with it I heard
Planning on buying this and using mineral powder foundation and products from Thin Lizzy, L'Oreal or Nude by Nature
You just saved me money :D If the effect dissapears or gets worse with expressions it defeats the whole purpose xD Thank you!
Is this the same as what the Trinny London miracle blur does? Have you tried the Deciem HA blur? I have used it on no make up days to soft focus my pores on my nose and across my cheeks so it might also work for lines. It left no residue on me or tight/cracked feeling so it might be a better option 🌸
No this is something very different. This is a skin tightener. I have used deciem ha blur as a primer but it doesn't do much for fine lines and dark circles/puffiness on me anyway lol. x
I just got mine in about a week ago. It works but.......its not exactly the miracle in a tube I was expecting after that viral tic tok. That pasty white residue may not be very noticeable on white skin. But it sticks out like a sore thumb on darker skin. If you aren't wearing it under makeup, don't even try it. I'm not normally someone that wears concealer very often but its a must have whenever I use this product. Even then it's tricky blending it so my under eye doesn't look lighter than the rest of my face. And I don't like how rough it feels once it dries. Wish it were smoother and more translucent. I'd give 5 out of 10 stars...
If it leaves a pasty white residue on your darker skin, what about mixing the PTR with your concealer first in your palm, and then applying…? Would that work? Then it would be brown and dry brown instead of white.
I’m a super pale white lady and I saw residue. I tried again and used much less and was much happier with the results.
How do you remove the exceed ? I splash the water and as soon as do that it seems like it goes away,
Very honest review..i only heard about this product today and watched a few before your video..and you have basically confirmed my supspicions and things i have noticed with similar products in the past... I tried a similar product some years back and i actualy looked worse when smiling or talking ... and i was useing it the correct way every time ...I was actually curious if these type of products actually end up causing more harm than good if used over a long time due to all the tightening..re tightening etc.... maybe i am wrong but i was dubious and dont think i will purchase it and agree with yourself , thanks for making the video for us
Fab video thank you 👍
You’re welcome 😊
I read that you can mix a little amount with your concealer that works.
The trick to applying this stuff is to apply it while you're half smiling.. if you apply it while expressionless, it will make it worse. Nobody walks around expressionless.. so just sorta smile while applying.. you're welcome..
GUESS WHAT???? The first time I used too much and it really didn't seem like much.. then today I used a dab.. waited for five to seven minutes making no drama facial expressions and yes indeed ... IT WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am a deep dark skinned woman so only a tiny amount so no whitecast but yes, indeed....it feels tight on that eye as well.
I tried it and it worked however when I put on my makeup it came off.
Loved your review. I'm trying to figure it out. Just got it & but it annoys me that I can't use any cream under eye or spf,cause as soon as I apply a tiny amount,the effects kinda diminish so then what's the point. I can't be without any product under my eyes so I'm not sure to keep it or return plus after 2 days of using it,I have irritated under eyes & under brow area😔I'm not sure about it but the effects are actually very interesting until u apply something!!
I’ve tried this and it does work a bit it does tighten a bit but is it suppose to feel burning? My skin immediately started burning after applying 😅 kinda hurt and wasn’t fun.. and now after a few hours I rinsed my face and cleaned my eyes but it still burns a bit.. cannot be good 🤷♀️
You look better without it. I think it makes your skin look dehydrated,. Speaking as someone who is always have puffy skin and now puffy and wrinkled! I am always looking for something and I have tried these tighteners before. None are practical and I think in the long run damage the skin.
Hey I love the product but I cannot use it other than selfies, even mixed with a cream. It literally shaves off years but I used the face firming cream but basically as soon as you smile it cracks- if they could somehow formulate it differently.
Rinse your face after it dries... That's what it says on the website for the instructions...
Thanks for trying this Karen,interesting .I wished I could give myself some filler & Botox lol .Xxxx
Hello, I almost went and bought this yesterday. Can u recommend a good eye cream or serum that will help puffiness under the eyes? We have the same issue any recommendation is very appreciated! Thank you for your honesty on this product! And you are beautiful whether you have any thing on or not.. sincerely JL
Thanks so much Janae! I don't really use eye cream so sadly I don't have anything to recommend. So sorry. x
I tried it..i felt it made my eyes look worse..i find many eye treatments do this..maybe it us because it tightens do much that as soon as you talk or smile it looks worse??
Am I looking at the correct before/after? In the first set of photos, the one I see on the left side of the screen looks "worse" to me than the one I see on my screen to the right. The photo on the left shows many more wrinkles as it emphasises/"whites-out" the under eye area. I do think the PTR makes it look worse in each photo. You're better off natural!:))
I wanted to try this product prt firming. I love your review. I changed my mind, I have 2 better alternatives which you don't need makeup and yes you can smile. I'm using 1 of my alternative in my pic I'm pic 58 here.
Do share!
Yes please, do share! (There is no way of attaching photos here sadly). x
What would you recommend is the best for the wrinkles?
Botox lol. I have yet to find a cream that works for me, although Tretinoin is the most proven. x
What is your favourite under eye product for wrinkles?
I've not found one!
Please don’t hate me but I watched the video on your other channel first and I was surprised as I actually thought your under eyes looked very puffy an tired - now I’ve come here and maybe this is why. I definitely prefer you without this product. I’ve been using the becca undereye cream which I really like, don’t know if you’ve ever tried this.
Thanks Michelle - I love honesty that is said without being mean so I don't mind at all and I agree! xx
O,I like so much but where cn buy,pls reply pls!
Its linked in the description for UK - if you are outside UK, best to google! I don't recommend it though, very drying. x
It works for me, yes i mentioned it from Anne P. Tiniest amount. Used it daily has an ongoing effect for me. I tap it in. Leave it for 7 minutes. Im not as animated as you. I said about you looking good to. Life as a Zebra. Love you. Hoping im back phones grrr xxx 💕💕💓 🐕 🐾🐾
yes, you’re right the product has defined the wrinkles underneath your eyes and on your upper lid of your eyes if you had used the product there on your before picture I do not see extra lines on your eyes, your upper eyelid, but with the product he created lines on your upper eye underneath your brow, so I agree with you before picture is extremely much better, than with the product it accentuates the lines on your face especially when you start to talk, so I don’t understand why the product would do that and why would anybody want to purchase a product that you have to keep a straight face all the time and then maybe it works on people would extremely underneath their eyes 👀 and works for some don’t or unless a lot of people are lying are deceiving themselves and just wanted to work so bad for RUclips , I don’t know some of these people on RUclips. They don’t care what they say and do they just want the company to give them PR no matter what the cost is! I appreciate your honesty!!! don’t change for nobody.
Hiya ..to be honest I can’t really see much a difference and that’s me looking for it …if I wasn’t aware of you using this I would diff not notice any change ..as you pointed out the wrinkles it can cause defeats the purpose. I was going to buy this product but thanks to your very honest review I’m not going to ..plus I like wearing concealer…Thank you for saving me the trouble ,disappointment and ££££ …
👒
🧑🏾🎤
👗👍🏾I’m buying a dozen!
👖. Thank you!!!!
I bought mine last year against my better judgment. I'm sure the ingredients are good but maybe PTR needs to tweak the formula. My problem is shopping bags undet my eyes. I followrd instructions to a T . Use most minimal amt( less than pea size)on tip of qtip, avoiding any oils from finger tip. Still residue... I used damp qtip to clean up residue. Go out into natural light and that cast still there. Looking like " casket makeup" I still keep trying . Disappointed ... convinced this wld b solution. Wonder if it matters what type of eyebags fat or fluid???
NICE
Hey girls, has anyone tried mixing a small amount with moisturizer?
Yes, it did nothing :0(
I don't rub it in - I just smear very little across under my eyes It works very well I add ny foudation not near the eyes and then add concealer with a dabing motion under eyes and leave it to dry I am happy with my bags being concealed
you should try algenist reveal green drops. I put a drop on my hand and put it under my eyes and it really brightens and seems to smooth my skin underneath. It also really helps with the bit redish purple I have under there too which is why I originally bought it for. . Once it has dried it is undetectable.
Hi Eva. I'm trying to search for it but I only see the concentrated color correcting drops. Is that the one?
Looked it up and the reviews are detailed. Not great reviews. Gues for some ppl it works well.
Anyone here form tiktok ?
Me lol, as Watsonthewarrior
Product must be completely dry before applying any makeup you can speed up the process with a fan. You cannot use cream-based products over this. Products must be powder-based
I used stuff years ago like this and it looked like egg white under my eyes! It did work but you could see white residue , so i stopped using it.
Can we use at side lips (👄) wrinkles ?
I don't see why not but same problem as with eyes - as soon as you speak or smile it will crack! x
@@TheBeautyMaverick thank you 🙏
thank you for saving me $$
It’s a product I don’t recommend because you can’t use it with makeup. It’s expensive too. I have some but I would not recommend it.
Do you have assign shop in nigeria
I'm not sure what this question means I'm afraid :0(
Thank you for confirming that I'm not crazy! I'm returning this. I just need to focus on nutrition and more natural remedies. This was a waste of $40 in my eyes. No pun intended 😂😂
Can guys use it?
Yes absolutely!
Can you apply your makeup then put it on?
You can but it disturbs the makeup and makes it all patchy :0(
@@TheBeautyMaverick ty lol I'm glad I didn't order and waste 40 lol over 40 and have to wear foundation and concealer 😂
what about over your foundation?
It just moves the foundation and doesn't really work. x
@@TheBeautyMaverick thk u for replying.
That powder that they tell people to use makes it so much worse. Someone said that mixing it with Morph 2 make up worked perfectly....might be worth a try?
But what if you don’t have alot of lines under the eyes!
Then you wouldn't need it lol. x
@@TheBeautyMaverick but I have bags. Ughhh
I was about to buy it but thanks for your review I won't spend my money
Sounds like that old model's trick of using haemorrhoid cream to tighten the skin 🤔
Does that work? That would be much cheaper than this stuff.
Thank you for this review ! I certainly will not be purchasing the product anytime soon.
It’s smile lines not wrinkles 🥰xx
Nothing is that funny 🤣
Sorry to say but it looks worse with than without. At least you look more natural without. With things don’t like quiet right x
Right?! Crazy eh. x
Hi Karen, I’m a little confused by today’s video since I thought you only reviewed cruelty free products. Has that changed?
Might be cruelty free? I think she prefers that but she does do normal products too.
Bugger, I thought they were cruelty free. My aim is to only review cruelty free - however, I only got as far as announcing that all makeup I was buying was cruelty free for this very reason. I have thankfully managed to mostly find replacements for skincare and haircare also. As explained back when I made the decision to change, its something that I need to get into a habit of checking and I remember 99% of the time nowadays with beauty but then something like this slips through and I'm annoyed at myself. I wouldn't have bought it had I realised. That's why I don't say that I'm a cruelty free channel as I'm not yet 100% changed over in both habit and products. It took quite some time for me to remember to walk past most of the makeup stands in Boots and it takes a long time to try and find cruelty free replacements. This is journey that I hope has no end meaning after skincare and haircare replacements have been found, I will look at other areas. So no, nothing has changed at all in my intention to be as cruelty free as my budget, time and brain will allow!
Just don't smile. I've never liked that kind of stuff. Have bought it in a drugstore for under 5$ once. Didn't read instructions before buying about how you can't wear it over or under anything. Plus the white film and trying not to have that.
Nopes.
So basically once it's on you can't laugh or talk. 🤔
They need to create an Elastic Rubber Cream then when you smile and move you face around, it just stretches and not crack...and this cream can only come off with soap and hot water..So even when you sweat it stays on... unless you apply soap to the face...I know it can be done!! Enough with this instant crack cream shit!!!
Oh wow! Thank you so so so so much for showing the difference in real life! So we’re supposed to walk around with a resting bitch face all the time? That’s not realistic and neither is this apparently. Thank you so much for saving me the trouble because I know I wouldn’t of liked it if I can’t smile or talk! Thanks again! Have a wonderful weekend! 😘❤️
Hehe, thanks Marge. I'm not sure why but I just found this comment in the held for review section, funny old you tube lol. x
Your better off putting super glue on your face
Donde lo puedo comprar ?
Desde. Panamá
How long does it last..1hr..
10hrs ???
Zero hours if you put make up on. I haven't tested the wear time with no makeup as I wouldn't bother lol. x
