Review: Essie Ejuvenate – A Revolutionary System For Younger-looking HandsOpis in ocena: Essie Ejuvenate – Nega za pomlajevanje rok

Today, the Parokeets ladies are going to review almost the whole system for younger-looking hands by Essie. It’s a relatively new collection of hand care products. The name of the collection is Ejuvenate and it’s says it’s a revolutionary system for younger-looking hands. There are four products in the collection:

  • Hydro-Therapy Hand Revitalizer
  • Microdermabrasion Hand Refiner
  • Advanced Radiance Hand Treatment
  • Intensive Recovery Hand Cream
Bottles: Essie Ejuvenate - A Revolutionary System For Younger-Looking Hands
Essie Ejuvenate – A Revolutionary System For Younger-Looking Hands

We got the first three products for a review. We took enough time to test the products thoroughly. Maestra tested all three of the received items, Gejba tested two of them while Goga and Mamy tried just the hand cream.

Maestra’s opinion:

It has a soft smell. The whole collection has a distinct smell. I don’t like it very much, but it doesn’t bother me with this particular product. After I soaked my hands in the hand bath for about 10 minutes or so, I didn’t feel or see any revolutionary changes. The hands were softened, but not moistened or anything like that. If you enjoy the hand baths, you would probably like this one too. But I for me it isn’t anything special. I prefer to soak my hands and nails in a mix of different oils and lemon juice.

Maestra’s opinion:

It’s a very light hand cream, which absorbs rapidly into the skin and it didn’t leave any greasy film on my hands. That’s great. But after longer time I realised that it’s just too light for my hands. It doesn’t do me any good (or bad). I know I massaged something into my hands but after a few minutes it’s like I did nothing. First I thought it’s because it was still cold outside, when I started using the cream. Then I waited for warmer days and I gave the cream another chance but actually there was no change for me. The cream is just not enough for my hands. I won’t even loose many about the smell, because I really don’t like it, but you all know that the smell is very subjective.

If you are after a perfumed and fast absorbing hand cream, that maybe this one is just the right thing for you. But if you have very dry hands it probably won’t be nourishing enough.

Gejba’s opinion:

I found hand cream to be fast absorbing, but more moisturizing than nourishing. I liked the effect it had on my hands, but I simply can not stand any kind of strong smell (I don’t even use perfumes) and this cream definitively has a very overpowering one. But we all have different sens of smell, so I would recommend it for all of you that love strong scents and are looking for a hand cream that won’t leave greasy or sticky feel on your hands.

Goga’s opinion:

I can tell you two things. It smells really good and it’s fast absorbing. Considering that I have dry skin it didn’t nourish my skin, but I’m a sucker for perfumes and smells, so … I don’t mind that it doesn’t do anything for my skin, if its smells good. I’ll just massage the hand cream more often into my hands. :biggrin:

Mamy’s opinion:

I like this cream for multiple reasons. It absorbs instantly, which comes in handy when working on the computer, dealing with paperwork … anywhere where you really can’t afford greasy hands but need your hands to be soft and taken care of. It doesn’t leave any kind on film on the skin. I have a lot of greasy hand creams to use at night, but I really needed one for daily use – to apply and forget about it. Now I have one.

And scent? I almost forgot about it. I love its gentle scent of just washed clothes. Also one of the reasons I liked this cream.

Microdermabrasion Hand Refiner

  • Apply to hands and massage.
  • Gently remove with warm, damp towel.

Ingredients: Aqua (water), Alumina glycerin, Dimethicone, Caprylic/capric triglyceride, Ethylhexyl palmitate, Stearyl alcohol, Glyceryl stearate, PEG-100 stearate, Butyrospermum parkii (shea butter), Retinyl palmitate, Glycolic acid, Arginine, Oryza sativa (rice) extract, Algae extract, Ammonium acryloyldimehyltaurate/VP copolymer, Parfum (fragrance), Linalool, Cocamidopropyl betaine, Methylisothiazolinone, Phenoxyethanol, Disodium EDTA.

Content: 113,4g.

Price:14€.

Maestra’s opinion:

My favourite product of the bunch. The granules are tiny and there are a lot of them. I like that very much. The tiny granules are soft and efficient. After the usage my hands felt soft, but a bit dry. A good hand cream is a must after using this product. The smell isn’t very strong. It doesn’t bother me much with this product. Great peeling. I recommend it!

Gejba’s opinion:

This is the best hand exfoliant I ever tried out. Granules are very small and do a very good job at mechanical peeling, while glycolic acid takes care of chemical one (I’m assuming that other criteria for it to work as peeling are met). I leave the product on my skin for a little while for glycolic acid to do it’s job and then thoroughly rinse with warm water. I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t use SPF cream on my hands a few days after I use the product … if I go outside.

Microdermabrasion Hand Refiner has the same smell as the hand cream, but my soap takes most of the smell away.

There are four product in the Ejuvenate collection. The fourth product is the Intensive Recovery Hand Cream.

HERE is the Step-by-Step manicure protocol by Essie.

V testiranje smo dobile prve tri izdelke. Vzele smo si čas in izdelke temeljito preizkusile. Maestra je stestirala vse tri izdelke, Gejba je preizkusila dva izdelka, Goga in Mamy sta preizkusili kremo za roke.

Maestrino mnenje:

Kopel ima nežen vonj. Pravzaprav ima celotna kolekcija prav poseben vonj, ki mi ni preveč všeč, a pri kopeli je vonj dokaj nežen in mi ni moteč. Po uporabi nisem opazila nobenih posebnih sprememb na koži. Koža je bila zmehčana, ni pa bila prav posebno navlažena kaj šele nahranjena. Če so vam kopeli za roke všeč, vam bo verjetno všeč tudi ta. Jaz preferiram namakanje nohtov in rok v mešanico olj in limoninega soka.

Maestrino mnenje:

Krema se izredno hitro vpije in mi ni pustila nadležnega filma na koži. Tega sem se zelo razveselila, vendar sem po daljši uporabi ugotovila, da mi je krema pravzaprav premalo tako vlažilna kot hranilna. Moje roke so bile po nekaj minutah po nanosu kreme ponovno “željne” kreme. Preizkusila sem jo tako v mrzlem delu leta kot sedaj, ko je že malo topleje, a se stanje ni bistveno spremenilo. Krema mi enostavno ni dovolj. O vonju sploh ne bi pisala, ker mi je res neprijeten in močen. A saj veste, da je vonj zelo subjektivne narave.

Če iščete odišavljeno kremo, ki se hitro vpije in ne pusti nadležnega filma na koži, potem vam priporočam, da jo preizkusite. če pa imate zelo izsušene roke, potem vam najbrž ne bo ustrezala.

Gejbino mnenje:

Krema se mi je zelo hitro vpila, a mi je roke bolj navlažila kot nahranila. Sam občutek na rokah mi je bil prijeten in bi jo z veseljem uporabljala, če ne bi bila tako močno parfumirana. Mene močni vonji zelo motijo, tako da se jim izogibam (ne uporabljam niti parfumov). Ampak okusi so različni, tako da jo priporočam vsem ljubiteljicam parfumiranih krem, ki ne puščajo mastnega občutka na rokah.

Gogino mnenje:

Lahko samo povem, da diši in da se dosti hitro vpije v kožo. Glede na to, da imam suho kožo sem dobila občutek, da mi je ne nahrani.

Itak sem vonj sucker, tako da meni je vseeno, samo da diši, se pa večkrat namažem :smeska:

Mnenje od Mamy:

Krema mi je všeč iz več razlogov. Prvi je ta, da se hitro vpije, pravzaprav se vpije v trenutku. To je idealno pri delu za računalnikom, pri prelaganju papirjev… skratka povsod tam, kjer roke ne smejo biti mastne. A biti morajo mehke in voljne. Na koži pusti film, ki ni moteč. Mastnih krem, ki jih uporabljam večinoma zvečer ali podnevi takrat, ko me to ne moti, imam dovolj. Kremo, po nanosu katere lahko mirno delaš dalje, pa sem pogrešala. No, nič več, sedaj jo imam.

In vonj? Skoraj sem pozabila nanj. Meni čudovito diši, in sicer po ravnokar opranem perilu – nežen svež vonj. Tudi zaradi vonja sem zadovoljna s kremo.

Microdermabrasion Hand Refiner

Maestrino mnenje:

Vsekakor moj najljubši izmed preizkušenimi izdelki. Zrnca v pilingu so izredno drobna in kar mi je zelo všeč – ogromno jih je. Svoje delo res nežno in temeljito opravijo. Po uporabi je koža vidno mehkejša, vendar rahlo izsušena, zato je izdaten nanos kreme po pilingu pri meni obvezen. Vonj je podoben kot pri kopeli, torej nežnejši kot pri kremi za roke. Pri tem proizvodu me vonj niti ne moti. Piling mi je super in ga vsekakor priporočam.

Gejbino mnenje:

Tole je zame najboljši piling, kar sem jih do sedaj preizkusila. Zrnca so čisto drobna in krasno opravijo mehanični piling, medtem ko glikolna kislina poskrbi za kemičnega. Zaradi glikolne kisline pustim piling nekaj časa na koži in ga potem temeljito sperem s toplo vodo. Seveda ne morem iz svoje kože in potem še vsaj en teden uporabljam kremo s SPF, ko se podnevi odpravim na sonček.

Tudi piling ima isti vonj kot krema, vendar milo poskrbi za odpravo večine vonja, tako da ni tako moteč kot pri kremi. Po pravici povedano, mi je piling tako všeč, da mu vonj brez pardona oprostim.

Kot omenjeno so v celotni Ejuvenate kolekciji štirje izdelki. Četrti izdelek je Intensive Recovery Hand Cream.

 

TUKAJ je postopek, kako s pomočjo Essie Ejuvenate sistema negovati roke.
