Lierac Friends & Family / My Picks

   Lierac Paris is having a Friends & Family sale running through  12/5.

30% off all products atwww.lierac-usa.com  with CODE: FF2010.

I love so many Lierac products  and have had great luck with a lot of their skincare.  Two top picks : Concentré Mésolift  Toning Radiance Serum  , this serum truly makes a difference in skin, and  a recent discovery-Hydrofilia

 Super Body Cream for Ultra Dry & Keratotic Skin . This body cream is super smoothing and effective  with urea in it but is not greasy or heavy  . It really gets the job done quickly.

Lierac Self Tanners

Lierac as well as making some top skincare also has a self tanning line. Two products are Autobronzant Hydratation Corps , a self tanning lotion for body and Bronzage Parfait Sans Soliel, a self tanning face gel.

The face gel is lightweight, non greasy and dries fast. It gives a subtle hint of of color after several hours. I am fairly pale and using this the first time I had a golden glow but it was just there, nothing too bronze or over done. In fact I would have been happy to have it darker. This makes it great for those us who are pale or someone who just wants to boost their skintone a bit.

The body lotion is a medium weight , moisturizing lotion that delivers a medium shade of color. Not as dark as many out there but a definite golden tan . The moisturizing properties make this especially nice if you have drier skin already. According to Lierac , this is also one to use to help prolong an existing tan and even it out.

All Lierac self tanners are available at select CVS stores and online at http://www.lierac-usa.com/

Autobronzant Hydratation Corps is $ 30.00 and Bronzage Parfait Sans Soliel for Face is $ 25.00

Lierac Friends & Family

Lierac makes some great skincare but isn't easy to find always. Some but not all CVS has it and they have their own online shopping finally this fall. So if you want to try anything or stock up, now might be the time. Their friends and family sale is on through Dec. 6th with 30 % off sitewide. Code is FF2009. 2 deluxe samples will be given to all orders as well.

I highly recommend the Diopti eye line , if you are looking for a great eye cream. There are 5 to pick from, all good.

Lierac In-Store Event/Gilda’s Club Initiative – October 23, 2009

100,000 consumers will have the opportunity to visit Lierac Paris European Skincare Centers at 700 participating CVS/pharmacy and Long’s Drugs.

On October 23, 2009, customers will be able to contribute to Gilda’s Club of NYC with every Lierac purchase. For each product bought, Lierac will donate $1 from its sale to the foundation. Gilda’s Club NYC provides free support to individuals living with cancer and their families. The organization has a unique philosophy that emphasizes interaction among its members, namely “community-building, collective wisdom, and shared experience.” Gilda’s Club also avoids discussing cancer using terms that carry a negative connotation. Instead, they seek to empower individuals through the use of their own “Gilda’s Club language.”

Lierac Diopti Eye Care Line

Time to talk eye creams and really good ones at that. French beauty brand Lierac is bringing out not 1 but 5 targeted new Diopti eye treatments to stores next month.

I had the chance to get advance samples of all 5 , and I used mine each night for 5 weeks to get a really good idea of it.

I also enlisted 2 other guest testers to help with some of the others.

I tested the Diopti Creme for anti wrinkle. In all honesty this is one of the best I have used. I am extremely fussy about eye creams despite not having lots of issues. I have a few very fine lines and I need moisture, thats it. After a few weeks of use, I noticed my undereye area was super smooth. It didn't even dawn on me at first it might be the eye cream, but I realized that was the only change I had made. I also saw a softening of the fine lines. Really. No they aren't gone, no cream takes them away totally,but they were less noticeable. Plenty of moisture here also but it's not heavy.

The Mom tested Diopti Lisse for firming. She used hers for weeks also. She told me it was "gold". She felt her eye area looked much better , and toned. This one also can act as an undermakeup base.

Lastly dear friend The Movie Mommy tried Diopti Cerne for dark circles. She is a full time working mom with 2 toddlers and 1 husband. She needs anything she can get to not look like what she calls "dead mommy". She also has rosacea and super sensitive skin. She too was very happy. The first treatment she's been able to use that didn't irritate her skin at all. Circles were only reduced a little, but overall she felt moisturized and brighter. She is just beginning to dip her toes into the skincare world and so far everything has made her skin flare up.

I didn't know until the Movie Mommys comment, but Lierac's eye creams are formulated for even the most sensitive skin and high tolerance.

Other highlights are a totally recyclable aluminum tube and they have an opthalmic type applicator tip to keep most contaminants out. They can each be used on their own or combined for your own recipe.

The other two treatments are : Diopti Calm- to sooth, cool and decongest the eyes. Can be used as an eye mask. This one does have witch hazel in it, so it's not going to moisturzing, but more refreshing and tightening. Diopti Gel is for puffiness.

The line will be available at CVS stores that carry Lierac and online at drugstore.com

Price is $ 34.00 each
