I appreciate the opportunity to review the following product courtesy of Lancôme via SheSpeaks. All thoughts & opinions are my own.
Even though I have always been diligent about wearing SPF on my face, a TON of freckles decided to dot my face this year. While they are adorable on kiddos, this Mama is not a fan when they grace my face. Not only do I feel like a kid, but those pesky blotches are uncooperative! They also like to peek out through my foundation which has cost me a pretty penny trying to find the perfect foundation to cover those bad boys up. When I was approached to review Lancôme’s new DreamTone Customized Skin Tone Correcting Serum, I was THRILLED!
As part of the Lancôme DreamTone Program, I received a 1.3 oz. bottle of Skin Tone Correcting Serum in Shade 1: Fair, that retails for $98 at Lancôme.com & department stores nationwide.
By using 3-barely tinted serums {1-Fair 2-Medium 3-Dark} Lancôme promises that DreamTone is the next generation of spot correction since it is specially formulated to reduce the appearance of dark spots, uneven skin tone & color imperfections.
So how did Lancôme DreamTone perform on my fair, freckled, sensitive & slightly red skin ?
I applied 1 pump of product twice daily under my moisturizers for 4 weeks as directed.
Pros
- My skin was more radiant after a few uses.
- After about 2 weeks, I noticed less redness.
- Smells like a lot of the Lancôme products I have smelled before, a clean yet floral fragrance.
- Did not irritate my sensitive skin.
- My face felt super soft after one use.
- Has a twist pump feature so you won’t accidentally spill/squeeze out product which is PERFECT for travel.
- Gorgeous pink packaging which looks super luxe in my bathroom drawer.
Cons
- Price tag. It just isn’t in my budget to spend $98 for a skin care additive.
- Due to the color of the bottle, I can’t tell when I’m running low on product.
- An additional step in skin care regimen.
- I did not notice any improvement in my dark spots.
Verdict
Although I loved how my skin looked & felt while using Lancôme DreamTone, I am still on the fence about purchasing. I have a hard time justifying $98 on something that did not lighten my dark spots. I might need an additional 4 weeks of treatment however before I make my final decision. Hopefully it will last me that long!
