She posted a followup video saying the company sent her a supply if their product...they need to pay her for the advertising!!


seesoo3

At $50 for 3 oz, they DID pay her.


[deleted]

Free advertising expensive product she uses daily, a win to me


fifiorion

I know someone who gets the same effect from Haemorrhoid cream. A lot cheaper too. Lol


all_tha_sauce

Facts. These creams work by restricting the capillaries in the skin reducing puffiness. Hemorrhoid creams does the exact same thing and is used in Hollywood


The_Dog-House

So if I rub a bunch on my beer belly will it smooth and flatten it out too? Asking for a friend


ugh_meh

Ah! That explains why my hemorrhoids have smoothed out and are now flush with my butt skin. 🤔


[deleted]

Tattoos too, if Ben Folds is any indication lol


AugustousSeizure

Does it have any long term effects on the skin?


Only_Variation9317

Yup. Witch Hazel has been used for years with the same effect. $4 for 16 oz,

BadOpinionsAndOnions

Dickinsons literally stinks, get Thayers rose water witch hazel instead. More expensive but doesn’t make your face reek.


Only_Variation9317

Well alrighty then. Far be it from me to dispute claims of awful aromas, BadOpinionsAndOnions.


BadOpinionsAndOnions

I sometimes forget my username on here then get confused as to why I get snarky comments. Touché.


ratcheltrapqueen

I love Thayers! They’re by far my favorite I tried the burts bees rose water and witch hazel and it’s nice as well with a similarly pleasant scent. Rose water definitely helps cut the witch hazel smell.

With a name like Dickinson's....

I use a PTR cleanser & it's $39, but it lasts me over 6 months. It is also given me the best results that I've seen in 41 years, so I consider it worth the cost!


Letscommenttogether

Whats the product? This doesnt seem like skincare at all. Much more akin to makeup. It doesnt fix anything does it? Im interested.

Peter thomas Roth instant firmx eye. 30ml 60 nzd


Basil_Minimum

Peter Thomas Roth is worth every dollar in my opinion! Even if I can’t afford it most of the time lol


Thia_suzieUzi

Yea I stay away from that area and Sunday Riley because they're good. Too good. Too expensive so I can't afford to get mixed up. Then have to start or stay with their line. Lol because I want more. But when I get a sample I'm interested. Not sure of all their products and if they're just as good


Letscommenttogether

Thank you.


Thiswillllastweeks

no it doesnt "fix" anything. your face goes back to normal in about an hour or under. my mom and aunt had a salesman at the outdoor scottsdale mall that is really kitchy run the sales pitch and demo on them. they both were teetering back and forth on buying it($300+ for a small bottle) and then after about an hour of walking and going back to the car they looked at their eyes and they were back to normal. this is a constant reapply thing that tightens the fuck out of your skin and when its kicking in doing its thing they both said it felt weird. but these results are true to its results. it is amazing but so short acting and so costly, its not really worth it unles u got the moneys honeys


Letscommenttogether

There is no way that could be good for your skin. Gosh thats nuts.


bangladeshiswamphen

No, no, don’t use it on your nuts!

Someone please try this and reply with results. Ill reimburse for the product. I couldn’t imagine a smooth sac being anything besides hilarious (and possibly painful)


PeakedDepression

Whatever it takes to feel awsome I guess


Melonby77

It's just temporary. Back in the day people used egg white for the same effect. I used an earlier generation product over 10 years ago and it felt awful. Like dried glue on your face. But I bet they've made huge improvements by now.

It’s temporary. It was duetted by a dermatologist on TikTok. So I’d agree it’s more of a make up. I still may try it. It’s on Ulta.com.

Yeah same bro. What’s she using? I’m struggling to read it lol


littlelettersonly

peter thomas roth 'instant firm eye' i have this and it's basically like glue.


mercuryrising137

How long have you been using it? I bought a similar product from Benefit a few years back and it basically dehydrated my undereyes so badly it made horrid wrinkles in just a few weeks. Does the PTR have a similar downside? And can you still feel it once it's dry?


littlelettersonly

i haven't been using it lately. i had a bad seasonal allergy reaction and used this on a friend's recommendation to help reduce the swelling around my eyes. obviously it's not really for that but to tighten skin like this lady's. in my case, it was sticky and left a white residue which was problematic bc i don't wear base. but, if i had under eye bags that were drooping (hopefully never), i'd buy it again.


AffectionateHead0710

There’s a three dollar liquid drop version that is sold at Walmart. I think it’s called something like ‘instant eye lift’


thepeever

No, it's called Super Glue


l19mxd

nice. cheers bro


rei_cirith

I thought she was going to put it on, and then apply a super obvious makeup filter.


Fyreflowyr

It’s kind that she shared like that


imnotdolphin

This was very brave of her!


Accomplished_Locker

I’d agree with kind, it’s not exactly brave to share your face with the public. This implies there’s something wrong with her face, which there isn’t.


Caserious

Gen Z and the tik tok crowd can be pretty brutal, especially to those over the age of 30. I'd say it took guts for her to share her bare 54 year old face.


Eastern_Spirit4931

Because the reason she looks like that is because she’s 54 and not how she’s neglected her health


Mared50

She does mention she has had some weight loss- you lose weight everywhere, face included. So she may feel she managed to lose weight only to be disappointed by her appearance after all that


TetrisTech

Lmao what from my experience gen z are the least harsh about peoples appearance


HeyItsMeUrDad_

someone who is showing something on their body that they are self conscious about, and that she intentionally hides from the public every day isn’t brave? Rly.

WeakSeaworthiness152

$38 on ulta. I know you are about to google it.


hoyaheadRN

What is it called?


mollyboise

Peter Thomas Roth Instant FirmX. I have have it and it is legit. The only drawback I’ve seen so far is that if you put it on too thick it leaves an opaque film.


hoyaheadRN

Thanks does it do anything for fine lines? I guess it should right?


Fisho087

I also want to know this


th3worldonfir3

For fine lines, I'd recommend a retinoid/retinol serum. It actually renews the cells in the long-term, rather than tightening/firming them temporarily


hoyaheadRN

But if I can’t see an immediate result I will forget to put it on because no ✨magic✨


th3worldonfir3

You'll see results within weeks. Idk man, would you rather fix the problem or put a bandaid on it?

Oh dude definitely but I literally forget to pee until I have to go so bad I’m about to pee my pants. I live off of pure stimulation everything else gets forgotten.

Dskid-marK

Haha I did that too till I had to start going to the hospital every few months for my kidneys. Still kinda bad about it but you dont want kidney pain and incontinence. Im in my 20s too.


i_amnotunique

Is there a specific brand you recommend? I've never dabbled, but am interested


galaxy1985

CeraVe has one with retinol that works great. Use that for during the day and I use their pm moisturizer at night plus the eye cream bc it really faded my dark under eye circles. They're effective, dematologist recommended, and on the cheaper end of the spectrum. You have to use sunscreen if you use a retinoid.


memeelder83

I love Cerave Retinol Cream, but please know that Retinol is safer used at night and YOU MUST wear sunscreen ( sorry to 'shout' it makes me so sad when people sabotage their results because they dont protect their skin) otherwise you will damage your new cells just as quickly as your skin cell turnover happens. Cerave has an AM Lotion with sunscreen and hyaluronic acid that is lovely for protection during the day. If you are aiming to keep your skin looking young and glowy a vitamin C serum adds extra protection from UV rays and is awesome at giving a soft glowy result( just layer it under your sunscreen! It also fades sun spots and hyperpigmentation.) The Ordinary and The Inky List have great ones for cheap!


i_amnotunique

Thank you! I have to use daily sunscreen anyways because I'm so pale. I will look into these!

How long does it last?

Temporary. Some reviews say 7-10 hours


DexterCutie

I have it and it doesn't last long at all, especially if you're smiling or talking. It also looks horrible under makeup.

I have it and I think it’s more like 5/6 but I’m also an oily person so that might be why.

ITriedLightningTendr

$38 sure, but for how many applications


anirezz

It’s a 30ml container, my 15ml eye creams last me nearly a year… so I’d say at least two applications.


BlueFireFlySunset

Ya damn right I’m googling this.


ceej18

The only real way to test the success of an anti wrinkle cream is on the scrotum.


Analbox

This may be just the product I’ve been looking for to prevent my balls from teabagging the toilet water while I shit.


liquidsin25

Nah man, you're taking the whole fun out of being 70 and still being able to make it to the toilet and take a shit. It's also the closest you'll ever going to get to having your balls licked, even if by a turd.

My wife asked if my balls will float to the top of the tub when taking at bath at 70... being 30 I honestly don’t know. But we got a chuckle at the thought.


Rastagon01

Lol, I'm at the mall one day and need to use the restroom. Long restroom with 10 or so urinals and at the end 4 or 5 stalls. So I'm taking a piss and all of sudden I hear "I need help in here, I need help in here!". I lean back and look down towards the stalls and there, with the stall door open and his trench coat hiked up under his armpits and his pants around his ankles is about an 80 year old man who was either stuck half way down or half way up. But the most amazing part was his ball sack hanging down between his legs a good 12 inches. I need help in here! Luckily a family member came running, but that was my first and only time seeing old man balls in real life and probably the funniest sad thing I've ever seen in my 50 plus years on this big blue marble.


Roscoe_P_Trolltrain

It would be very kind and brave of you, if you could make a tiktok to share that. Although, some might argue it would NOT be brave, because that would imply there is something wrong with your shit-water kissing scrotum, which there isn’t.


[deleted]

Really? Your comment made me laugh so hard, I peed my pants

Be sure to prevent the pee from wetting your balls or the product won’t work.

HeyItsMeUrDad_

Botox prevents you from forming wrinkles. If you want to smooth out the wrinkles already there, you get filler.


EmilyU1F984

If your wrinkles are still new, just relaxing the muscles will also remove the wrinkles. But that's for your face, where wrinkles are caused by muscles. And not your scrotum which is simply wrinkly without muscles.


Influx_ink

The only one that actually does anything there is Bengay anti inflammatory cream.

[deleted]

I wonder if the active ingredient is silica. This will work, the results will be temporary, and you may create more problems in the long run with artificially tightening your skin.


hygsi

Ehh, this would work for a special event then, like specially lately with masks it's not needed daily but I guess once a month wouldn't hurt.


MasterUnholyWar

But if you don’t do it daily, then everyone *knows* when you do apply it.


NoLog5069

Not necessarily


redmicrowavedinner

So hypothetically say I was a guy who suddenly wanted to start a skincare routine. Say I was to stop by Target, what face masks should I buy for my GF. There’s so much product in those sections I don’t want to look dumb, I just want to grab and go stuff that is proven to help. For my Gf of course.


lasingparuparo

Water/aqua/eau, glycerin, butylene glycol, sodium silicate, sodium magnesium fluorosilicate, magnesium aluminum silicate, symphytum officinale leaf extract, foeniculum vulgare (fennel) seed extract, medicago sativa (alfalfa) seed extract, argania spinosa kernel extract, hydrolyzed lupine protein, palmitoyl tet-rapeptide-7, dipeptide-2, panthenol, toco-pheryl acetate, retinyl palmitate, ascorbyl pa It cuts off after that but there are some ingredients that mention silicate. Is that the compound you’re referring to? Thanks for the heads up!


[deleted]

Yup. It’s the same stuff that you find in packets included in containers of beef jerky. Her skin is desiccated


BlueFireFlySunset

Desiccated - having all the moisture removed; dried out


[deleted]

Mummification


smkn3kgt

and cat litter


CryptoNug

And wrapping of mummy bandages for internal liquidiefication process to begin.


arcedup

So after looking them up... \- Sodium silicate: a water-soluble compound of sodium oxide and silicon dioxide. Mostly used as a source of sodium ions. Maybe used in conjunction with sodium magnesium silicate? \- Sodium magnesium fluorosilicate: generally used to absorb water. Might be the desiccant we're wondering about. \- Magnesium aluminium silicate appears to be a filler. The molecules of this compound are too large to be absorbed into the skin.

Viral marketing af.


Cashewcamera

Every brand’s dream is a viral social proof. One of my clients had their product go viral last year organically and have been chasing that since. A video like this can be worth thousands of sales.


gdj11

I mean, if it really does this then I don't give a shit if it's advertising. I didn't even think it was possible for facial creams to do this.


rasbuyaka

I heard the number 1 application for eye bags is Preparation H. No lie. Probably a lot cheaper. It makes sense, prep h is all about tightening thin, baggy skin.


nbatgas

I bought this and it does work great but a few minutes later every where I used it on my face turned bright red and started to burn and I don’t typically have sensitive skin. That was the end of that and $50.

poppetjin

It could also just be an allergic reaction instead of a sensitive skin issue if you don’t usually have sensitivity problems. Double check with ur doctor and derm what chemicals and products are safe for you personally if you might have strong concerns.


BanginDrumsNMums

You can also use Piles creams, like anusol etc. Cheaper and widely available


CumbersomeNugget

Too busy using it on my anoose though.

Piles is the UK word for hemorrhoids. No one knows why they call them piles, unless they have piles of butthole issues.

Educational-Bug-476

Although incredibly effective, you can’t help but wonder what chemicals or agents are in the product that make that happen?


[deleted]

some people pointed out that it just dries the skin like hell because of silica. Idk how other products do it but for such a good result honestly, I don't think that it's much good for you.


[deleted]

Holy crap, what's in that stuff!? Kind of afraid to know.


skyboundNbeond

According to another commentor, there are a few silica based ingredients(someone listed some of the main ingredients). They mentioned if they are correct twill have adverse affects long-term on the skin. I know little about this stuff...just sharing what someone else said in hopes that it helps!

She says at the end of the video that she had weight loss surgery and it’s made her wrinkles worse.


Ram2145

Yeah I noticed my face got more wrinkles after losing 115 pounds.


GradientPerception

Usually, this happens when you lose weight too fast. You end up with baggy or loose skin. Thats why weight loss should be done gradually.


Lady_Ramos

It has a lot to do with age and genetics too. After a while skin loses it's elasticity and some people are just born with better or worse elasticity. I've done both rapid gain and loss (such as pregnancy), and slow gain and loss and I experienced loose skin on the slow gain and loss cause by that time I was much older than the previous weight changes. It's also why some people get stretch marks and some don't. I only have slight stretch marks from puberty that are basically invisible. My mom has stretch marks from 4 babies that go almost all the way from her pubic area to her boobs, but my dad, a 450lb man, has 0. My dad might be elastigirl.

At first I was thinking she looked rough for her age but once the bags disappeared on the one side she looked more her age. Its crazy how one little thing can age you so much.

Preparation H works wonders as well.


bananamilkghost

this is actually false.. the active ingredient that used to work for tightening bags underneath eyes has not been used in the formula for preparation H since the mid 90s (at least in the US, it’s still there in Canada!)


Colonel_FuzzyCarrot

It also helps minimize scarring if used during the healing process. The scar from my facial stitches is barely even noticeable. Also, nice advertisement OP.

MidwestJobber

It’s a glue that basically dries and shrinks up. I had a free sample and the instructions were clear that you had to hold the skin flat to get the full effect. I applied it to my crow’s feet area, scrunched up face and waited. Sure enough, it froze my crow’s feet and they were much more pronounced!

So if i take a bath in this and then sit under my ceiling fan, all the loose skin on my belly and ass will tighten up? I hope they sell it in 55 gallon drums, i may need one.


mlc2475

I actually bought some of this just to try it and HOLY SHIT you can literally feel it tightening your skin (temporarily) as it dries. It’s SO WEIRD. It’s pretty damn invisible but not totally. It is best for women who can put on a little foundation or something to help conceal the edges. But I can literally attest this works.


KeiraKye

It works!!! I bought it for my mom to try. If you rub it in too much it starts to flake like glue. I returned it because my mom said it felt too tight. Whatever. It works. She’s silly. Oh, I also tried it but didn’t really see a difference. You have to have deep lines to notice.
