Splurge or Save: StriVectin VS. La Roche-Posay

 Beauty Bag Dolls I hope you had a wonderful 4th of July weekend! I know I have been a little behind on posting reviews lately and I have said in other posts with my updates that like all of you I am sure I have been busy, and life has changed a lot for me over the past few months, but I have still been testing products all the time. I have been even more selective at what I bring to you. That being said I am also taking even more time to test and review the products because on my shopping hauls to Ulta Beauty and Sephora I look at similar product features, different brands and of course different price points. If you're like me for some reason, I am of course drawn to the more expensive product that is very similar to its cheaper counterpart of another brand but when I leave the store with the expensive one in my bag, after checkout I cannot help to also think about if the cheaper counterpart would have been a good choice as well.

So, while I use the expensive StriVectin Multi-action Super C Retinol Serum for about three weeks I am beyond impressed with the results. I began to see them on day 7. The skin was brighter, fines lines relaxed, and dark spots softened. This is a 1-ounce bottle for $72 that you use twice a day. I was enjoying the results and looked at the Calander and decided another trip to Ulta Beauty was in order to buy a mini version to take with me on vacation because I wanted to keep up and keep on getting results. I also want to mention that this is a vegan and cruelty free product. I must say this is my splurge product and since I liked the results, I also knew I needed to purchase another full-size product since the current 1-ounce version was getting very low after 50 days of use.

As I walked into Ulta Beauty I remembered the Save product that I had eyed up when originally    purchasing StriVectin and as I added the mini to my basket to take with me on Vacation in a few weeks I was this close to tossing in the $72 version as well but then I remembered the La Roche-Posay Pure Vitamin C Serum so I go over to it, review that yes, it is a Pure Vitamin C serum without retinol but it promises similar results like brightening, evening out tone and texture as well. The price point is $41.99 which is also appealing, and it uses Salicylic Acid instead of the Retinol.  I decide to purchase it and after stopping the StriVectin for a few days just to reset my skin I grabbed the La Roche-Posay Pure Vitamin C and I noticed that similar to the StriVectin it did indeed have scent which is not a deal breaker to me. I used this each morning as directed and I must say I really do like this serum. Results were what I would say immediate because after just two days I noticed my face was bright and glowing! My skin was also very smooth. I have no major complaints however I only noticed that it may not work as quickly with wrinkles. I used the entire bottle and then began to see results after about 60 days. I did purchase a second bottle to continue the journey. 

The question is splurge on StriVectin or save on La Roche-Posay? I say for me it is a draw. I feel that the La Roche-Posay gives you fast results with brightening and if that is all your looking for than grab it because you will save a lot of money and get your brightening and smoothing results fast! If you need the wrinkle correction Splurge for the StriVectin because within 14 days, you will see your wrinkles smooth out and you will have brightening and smoothing around day 5 to day 7! That being said I purchase the mini in StriVectin ($15 is the cost for the mini) and a full size of the La Roche-Posay. Keep in mind you use the StriVectin twice a day and La Roche-Posay is once in the AM.
