VENEFFECT Anti-aging Lip Treatment
We have the travel size but the original size comes in a 10g jar and costs....$85. 100% natural, plant-derived phytoestrogens helps to combat the loss of collagen caused by hormonal changes, minimising the appearance of lines by deeply hydrating, plumping, soothing and softening. This is actually not a lip balm, but a lip treatment. It is not that nourishing after applying, however, it still works. We put this on your lips, and maybe after 10min (once the treatment sinks in), we put our lip balm on. 2 times a day. You will start seeing the effect after 1 week of consistent use. As much as we hate to say, and when we look at the price, our credit card runs away, but it actually works. Our lips have become a lot softer and plumper-- and they don't constantly feel dry (we live in a very cold dry climate). We may purchase the full tub, if no dupes are available.
First impressions/review:
VENeffect Anti-aging Eye Treatment (15ml for £90)
I have tried the 2ml sachet which lasted me for a full week (both day and night). It is a rich eye cream-- very nourishing. Obviously, having only used it for a week, I can't say I have become wrinkle/line-free, but I think the skin under my eyes has become softer. This product has an advanced complex of phytoestrogens, which stimulates cells to increase collagen production and hold on to precious moisture. This eye treatment utilises this advanced technology to boost elasticity around the eyes, reducing the appearance of fine lines and crow’s feet and leaving skin more youthful and bright. I have another packet of this product so I will continue using it, but I am yet convinced that I need the full size.

VENeffect Micro-Exfoliant (£48 for 100ml)
This is what the brand has to say about this product: "The Nformula unites natural, eco-friendly polylactic acid micro-beads with ultra-fine ground grapeseed to gently and effectively remove dead skin cells and reveal the healthy, smooth skin beneath. Meanwhile, pomegranate enzymes provide further exfoliation, while amino acids and willow bar help to keep skin clear and radiant. Underpinning all of this is VENeffect’s signature phytoestrogen complex (which includes extracts of grapeseed, soy and pomegranate) which supplement declining oestrogen, in turn stimulating collagen production, which enhances elasticity and minimises other signs of ageing. The cherry on top of a winning formula, Micro-Exfoliant also contains almond extract to soothe skin and provide a sweet aroma". I am not much into physical exfoliators, I will be honest. So when I got this product, I didn't have much of an expectation. But, I was super surprised. This is a white cream-paste packed extensively with the micro-exfoliant particles. You can determine the hardness of the exfoliation yourself by the strength of your hands. It can be a very strong scrub, almost to the extent that you will polish your skin to an even tone. I loved it, and I even bought the full size.

VENeffect Pore Minimizing Cleanser (150ml for $60)
$60 for a cleanser? What does this so-called pot of gold contain? Let's find out. "VENeffect Pore Minimizing Cleanser gets deep down into pores to clear out excess oil and impurities so your pores appear smaller and your skin looks smoother and younger. Swimming with delightfully skin-friendly ingredients like willow bark, soy and pomegranate, this foam gel cleanser gently removes pore-clogging debris, like dead skin and oily buildup while brightening your complexion. Its unique hypoallergenic formula infuses the skin with phyto-nutrients and essential hydration, meaning it's a wonder tube full of daily goodness. It's time to refresh, renew and reawaken with a daily cleanser that understands your skin's needs and goes above and beyond to rejuvenate your skin". Let me come back to my first sentence. $60 for a cleanser? Not for 1kg but 150ml? Are you crazy? It's a good cleanser. It did not minimize my pores, however. But there are many good cleansers on the market. A lot cheaper. I will not purchase the full size item.
