Hard to tell

I think it's doing what it's supposed to do ... at least my "marionette" lines appear slighly diminished but I was hoping for some lift at the lower edges of mouth/lip area. I will not re-purchase.

Quick Take: tightening, dimishes fine lines
I have been using the uplifting serum for about 3 weeks. I had a friend over this past weekend and she asked me if I had work done! I was so excited that someone I haven't seen for several months actually noticed! I took her up to show her the serum, and explained how it worked she said " that's it? its that simple??" It is! My skin looks the best it has in years. I've noticed firmer skin on my neck and less harsh lines around my mouth. For me it seems to have turned back time, and trust me, it's a lot of time! If you want result this product is a must!

Great Clinical Results
-03.16.12
Quick Take: tightening, preventative, dimishes fine lines
For those of you having trouble with the "stickiness" of this serum, you may be using too much. There is an ingredient called Polyacrylamide that stays on the surface of the skin, providing that instant feeling of firmness. You only need to apply a very thin layer to feel the results, but that's only the temporary part. The Uplifting Serum is packed with concentrated anti-aging ingredients that have been clinically proven to give you long term results. The high levels of Hyaluronic Acid help plump up fine lines, peptides help stimulate collagen, and bio-marine extracts help prevent environmental aging. The roller bar provides incredible micro-circulation in the skin, and is like having your own mini massager on the tip of your serum! How cool is that?? For those of you who are ready to commit to an impactful anti-aging routine, this is the serum for you!

sticky
-03.07.12
I agree with the reviews that found this product to be "tacky." I like the rollerball, but the serum just felt sticky and uncomfortable. I couldn't say if it "firmed and sculpted" because I had to wash it off. I just couldn't imagine going the whole day with that sticky sensation on my face!

too tacky
-02.11.12
i gave this 3 stars because it probably would work but i couldn't get passed the sticky film on my face and if used at night you'll stick to your pillow.

I think it could be great but...
-02.09.12
I like this product at night as it wears just fine under my moisturizer. However, if I apply it in the morning it makes my foundation pill or ball up. I don't think I'll be keeping it.

this works!

Quick Take: tightening, dimishes fine lines
Once applied, I felt a warming sensation which didn't last long, but I soon felt my skin really tightening up and it had a glow to it! I had put a thin layer of moisturizer on later, then my foundation. There was a little flaking around my forehead, so I wonder if I may have applied a little too much and it left a dry film or something. But otherwise, I really like this for pulling things tight and shrinking pores!

Quick Take: tightening, preventative, dimishes fine lines
I have been using this product for several weeks and it has done wonders. The results are clearly visible. Honestly, though, it did take some getting used to. Now I know to squeeze the tube very tightly and let the roller do the work. I have a couple of minutes before applying my moisturinzer to let the serum dry. The stickiness is then gone. I really think this product has made a difference.

Not my favorite
-02.06.12
I wanted to really like this product, but alas did not. I do not care for the delivery system -- it is difficult to gauge the correct amount of product to dispense with the roller ball system. It does seem to have a tightening effect, but unfortunately it feels like a dry tightening, not a good one and as other reviewers have said, sticky and non absorbent. I am using the rest of the tube for my neck and chest only.

Quick Take: dimishes fine lines, tightening
So far so good! I can see some of my lines between my eyebrows going away. I use this on my forehead also. I am 25 and have a little sun damage and small wrinkles forming. I can see my skin tighten up right after it dries. At night though my skin seems to be back to normal. Hopefully after full use of the product I can see some permenent results!

A Little goes a long way
-01.22.12
Quick Take: dimishes fine lines, tightening, preventative
I just wanted to reach out to those that commented about their makeup balling up after using the Uplifting Serum. I work for the company and thought that you might need a little tip on how much to use. A little goes a long way! You do not need to squeeze the tube much when applying. Simply get the flow going with a slight squeeze and roll a small amount onto the skin at a time. You really just want a thin, even application. Once you have the perfect amount distributed, turn the arrow to the "off" position and continue to roll the product into the skin. We are excited for this new serum and I hope this information is helpful to you.

meh...
-01.20.12
I have loved everything I have tried from FAB, but not loving this...would return it, except I cannot find my receipt...will use just at night, as I too found my makeup to pill up and make balls...waited for it to dry before putting my moisutizer on, and it still felt sticky to me. Wish I loved it, but I don't.
If anything changes, i will update....

Not Lovin' It
-01.19.12
I do not care for this product. It sits on my skin, rather than soaking in. While I noticed a bit of firming and tightening action, I feel it was due to the fact that the product was just sitting on my skin, creating a dried, semi-sticky mini mask on my face. When I applied moisturizer over this, the feeling diminished. However, when I applied my Skin Transformer, I experienced peeling and flaking, which is a deal breaker for me. I prefer a serum that actually absorbs into my skin. I am returning this.

-01.07.12
Quick Take: dimishes fine lines, tightening, preventative
Ok, within minutes I could feel a difference. I love the application of the roller ball, that alone feels awesome and to think its applying an uplifting serum at the same time-SWEET! I even went around my lips and could feel and see a difference.
