Erno Laszlo Transphuse Line Refining Cream

Love the transfuse refining cream and love it even more when it's on sale. My skin feels so good with each use.

Perhaps you will surprised that a man is reviewing this cream. Well, I got it specifically for my girlfriend, but she didn’t like the smell of the product and refused to use it, saying it possessed a chemical odor. I don’t think it does, but be aware that it does have a slight odor, which to me smells a more of roses than chemicals. Being that my partner refused to use it, I decided to give it a go instead.The claims are that it “Visibly decreases the fine lines and wrinkles with potent anti-aging peptide complexes Collaxyl and Dermaxyl.” And that it calms the skin : “Soothing Licorice Root Extract reduce redness and irritation. Also that it Reshapes: Advanced firming agents strengthen the dermis by increasing elasticity and pliability.” So, how well does it deliver on those claims?As I mentioned, my girlfriend doesn’t like the smell, and subsequently wouldn’t let me use it before bed. So I’ve been using it only once a day, in the morning. I should mention that I am very fair skinned, and have some sun damage on my face, which appears as dark, dry blotches in a few places and redness in other areas. What I’ve mostly noticed is these areas have faded, giving my face the appearance of a lighter, more even skin tone. As far as wrinkles go, I’m 66 and am told on occasion that I’m youthful looking for my age, but yeah, I’ve got wrinkles, and haven’t noticed a significant difference in that arena. Yet. Perhaps this is because I’m not sleeping with an application of the product.This product does soothe and calm the skin. I do feel it hydrates extremely well, which is important to me because I have very dry skin and spend a great deal of time outdoors. While I’m hardly an expert in this sort of thing, I can state unequivocally that this is far and away the best moisturizer I have come used. But then, at this price it ought to be. Does it perform miracles, ie make wrinkles disappear? All I can say is, if this property exists in a moisturizer, it probably takes time to see the results. It has now been a little over a month, and I’m not seeing that kind of dramatic difference. No one has remarked on any changes, not even the girlfriend. This doesn’t mean nothing is happening, as men tend not to draw these kinds of observations in the first place.This product lasts a long time; I still have quite a bit left and intend to go on using it until it’s gone, I will update this review if any significant changes occur.Note: since continuing to use this product, my significant other did tell me she thought my skin looked noticeably younger and healthier.

I do not wear makeup a lot so when I do buy it I like it to be easy to use and apply. The most important part of it is that the ingredients are responsibly sourced. That the makeup is natural.That it is dermatologist-tested and formulated without parabens, phthalates, SLS, petrolatum, talc, synthetic fragrances, or silicones. Never tested on animals is my favorite part in buying makeup.I like to pay for what it is worth and it is so I would order this again.

I cannot cope with the smell of the Transphuse and I don’t think it works as claimed.I bought and paid for this product twice and am returning 2 for refund please.

Luxury indeed! I thought this was going to be a moisturizer, but it actually turns out to be a line-refining step that goes in between your cleanser & moisturizer (or in between your serum & moisturizer, if you're a serum person). I assume if you have $225 to throw at an interim step just for fine lines, you're probably just going to get Botox instead, but believe me I've been happy to try this anyway!I actually do feel it working, after just a couple of uses I could feel the areas of application starting to tighten up slightly. Not in a bad way, not dry at all, just like, the skin felt firmer even from the inside. I love it on my forehead, crows feet, and smile lines, and after about 2 weeks I feel like I can see small results already! I was pretty skeptical & thought this was just a way to squeeze money out of rich vain ladies, but it's pretty awesome.The packaging is elegant and sleek, and I REALLY appreciate the little paddle that comes with it, for scooping every last bit out of the jar. Not only are you not going to be wasting one last molecule of this super-expensive goop, but if you have long nails you don't have to worry about the awkwardness of getting product out of the jar without losing it under your nails. Why doesn't every jar of every beauty cream come with this??If I had the money, this would be part of my daily cleansing routine until the end of time. I don't, though, so unfortunately I probably won't be able to buy it again. I REALLY love using it right now while I can though!

I've been using this product consistently for about 2 months for twice a day. Once after a shower in the evening and once after washing my face in the morning. Initially in the first week, there wasn't any immediate effect. In fact, it seemed to be much inferior then the Obaji serums. But over time, I started to notice a lot of improvement on my skin. Some anti-aging lotions kind of swell up your skin to disguise your wrinkles. However, this product seems to nourish your skin a lot and keeps it naturally moisturized and elastic looking without getting that skin tightening feeling.My wrinkles didn't really disappear, but they seem to be much less prominent then before. In addition, even after washing my face, the long term effects of the cream still stand and my skin isn't screaming of dehydration after showering or washing my face. In fact , even if I don't reapply immediately after washing my face, my skin still feels good.The container is quite heavy, and I wish it was a bit lighter as I was lugging this around when traveling. However, for the amount provided, I think it should last me anywhere from 4-6 months of conservative use at twice a day. So if you don't mind spending anywhere from $30-40 per month to keep your skin looking good, this product may be for you.At this point, I prefer this over the various serums I've been using as it doesn't make my face shiny and sticky like most serums. It can be easily used under your make up and and absorbs well enough that it doesn't smear everywhere on your pillow.
