Does anyone use this? Is it as good as hyped by (slightly too eager) salewoman? What results should I expect?
Please tell all!

Don't listen to her, she will tell you that genefique manages to infiltrate your skin cells and change their DNA.

Bag o'shite. Lancome would have won the nobel prize for biological sciences if that was true.

It's just a bit of serum which will make your skin feel nice. i have tried it (freebie) and it was OK, however for the same price you can get Estee Advanced night repair which is far better imo.

Hmm. I thought it was a bit 'try too hard'! I use Clinique Laser Focus ATM and am v happy with it. And it's far cheaper than Genefique.

I used it and it made my skin a bit softer but it made no difference to the way it looked. I got the hard sell, too...

It made my skin look like a teenager's again. I came out in full blown acne. nice!!!!

Youth Code. In another article by DM it was claimed that Youth Code had the same active ingredient as Genifique.
I got mine for £15 on a 3 for 2 offer from Superdrug.

Get Olay Regenerist 3 Point Serum (NOT THE CREAM).

It recently won some award as being as good as the top top brands for delivering results. I've used this for the past 6 months and it's good. You can get it on Amazon cheaper than Boots.

I'm 21 and had a bad year so my skin is "stressed" (ha) - buying a mascara the woman looked me up and down and said "wait there, I have a sample for you that will make so much difference". Absolutely nothing. Ask her for a sample maybe, but definitely do not waste money on it.
