I'll be honest. When I was a beauty editor, I thought neck cream was silly. What can a neck cream really do that a moisturizer can't? It was a sentiment I carried to my job here at Lancome. So what have I been using for the past week and loving? Neck cream.
Why the change of heart? One of our favorite bloggers, Kari at Fab Over 40, stopped by the office to say hi the other week. We gave her some new products to try, among them Renergie Lift Volumetry Neck, our lifting and shaping neck cream. Kari took it home, took some before photos and road tested the product. She sent us a link to her review and we fell off our chairs:
"Now after two weeks of using Rénergie Lift Volumetry Neck I still look in the mirror in amazement. My deeper lines are less pronounced, the fine lines are nearly gone and the firmness, especially under the chin area is well, less saggy. I don’t think I will ever be without this cream."
We know our products work, but to get an endorsement like this--with before and after photos--from a respected (and picky) blogger who knows her stuff is a big deal. I've been using Renergie Neck for the past week and I'm a believer. If you're skeptical, you can read Kari's review here. If you're still skeptical, here's a thought. What have you done for your neck lately? Do you concentrate all the attention and product on your face, only to treat your neck to the moisturizer residue left on your fingers? Maybe it's not the product, but the fact that you're taking the time to really care for the skin on your neck. And nothing says pay attention to your neck like a jar of neck cream, that you paid your hard-earned money for, sitting in your medicine cabinet, staring at you every time you open the cabinet door.
Last thought. If you're one of our younger readers, start taking care of your neck now! You'll thank Lancome and Kari later.
To celebrate Kari's awesome review, let's give away a jar of Renergie Lift Neck and a copy of Nora Ephron's hilarious "I Feel Bad About My Neck." Let us know what you've done for your neck lately. We'll pick one comment at random. Please post by Thursday night. We have a few giveaways to wrap up, so we'll name all the winners on Friday.
