To be honest even if I was very whelthy I could never ever spend that amont of money on products. These can do so little compared to other interventions. I think they are created for and sold to people who feel good about spending a lot on skincare.
I actually spent a lot of money on other interventions from sculptra to fat injections u name it all after a series of treatments caused significant fat atrophy I ended up emailing the creator of this cream He's very genuine and and pretty honest not greedy at all The good thing is u don't have to use it forever 4 to 8 weeks is when ur supposed to see some results so fingers crossed I'll report back here for final results 💕 love
@@annalove4809 Hi Anna, I was watching this video and happened to read your comment. If you dont mind me asking, what do you think of the results so far? 😊
pay mortgage or buy Auteur? :-) Def. not for the normal working people. Even if I had the money for that, I wouldn't help companies with shameless prices increase their profit. I hope I wasn't rude, just trying to give my opinion.
I tried the sample kit. I’m 60 and the Auteur products aged me 5 years in 4 days. My eyes were so dried, lined, with red rings that looked like chemical burn. My whole face looked so tired. I don’t get the hype and I think these RU-vidrs have such a great base that they don’t notice initially. I’ve noticed that a year on from the rave reviews, there are very few influencers still using the line.
I haven’t tried this brand but wanted to mention that a very slightly more affordable option is Eighth Day skincare which seems to be along the similar lines as this brand and I can attest that it works amazingly good. It’s still very expensive as well but they do offer a 15%off first signup discount and a a rewards program to help counteract a little of the cost. They also have very great customer service. Much better products that Augustinus Bader. Those products to me are horrible.
Babor skincare made in Germany makes a beautiful enzyme powder that can be mixed with any cleanser. The RX line has hyaluronic acid & ampoules that deliver the same luxurious experience & efficacy.
Wish you could review ONESKIN it’s a DNA repair brand with only one product. Also an amazing brand is Osmosis, it also has a product for DNA repair, as well as supplements to restore facial fat pads, would love to hear your point of view on this. Thanks ❤
Hi. The DNA repair products do sound really interesting. Thanks for flagging. I’m going to request an interview with someone from One Skin to see if I can find out more.
After your intro and hearing the prices, I was saying to myself "Please hate it. Please hate it. Please hate it." 🤣 I'd need to see some pretty amazing results to justify buying this. Thanks for the review!
Thank you Claire once again for this review which spotlights some of the lesser known products in a saturated skincare market. Your skin looks great so I don't dispute the positive results you've achieved. However, when I looked at the ingredients in the Auteur enzyme cleanser they included such things as corn starch, tapioca starch and citric acid - probably some of the cheapest ingredients available. The serum also contains polyvinyl alcohol (also known as PVA) so I am guessing that's what provides the smoothing appearance of the skin as it's a type of subtle 'adhesive'. I also noticed that fragrance appeared quite high up the list. I wonder if this product was created to compete with the exorbitant Augustinus Bader skincare line.
Thanks for this insight David. Funnily enough it's the enzyme cleanser that I particularly enjoy using. The fragrance is very subtle but it is fragranced. They are deliberately setting out to pitch themselves as a designer / aspirational brand, and I'm sure they've looked at the success of Augustinus Bader and seen the market potential.
I’m currently using those products the Enzyme cleanser, retinol, line serum and cream I like investing on my skincare but Yh it’s ridiculously expensive 🤦♀️
OMG......how much?!? Wow. This is one brand I have never considered because of the price, but it was interesting seeing your results Clare. Think I'll stick with my Elemis😉 I've had good results with The Ordinary Ascorbic Acid 8% + Alpha Arbutin 2%, for pigmentation, which I use on my hands. It took about 3 to 4 weeks before I noticed a change, but definitely worth the wait. I still use it every day and am really impressed. On another note, could you please share the make up you use? You always look flawlessly glowing 💜
Yeah, the pricing is eye watering! Thanks for the tip on The Ordinary product. Such a great brand. And that’s kind of you to comment on my make-up! I am not very skilled at all when it comes to make-up so I keep it cheap and cheerful. I’ll maybe do a video on it one day because I’ve found a few good high-street buys: For foundation I am currently mixing Max Factor Face Finity with more expensive Forever by Dior and I find that works well for me while saving a bit of cash too! For glow, I use Maybelline chrome extreme. You only need a tiny amount. x
@@thehonestchannel Thanks for reply Clare. I've tried Max Factor Face Finity a while back, but didn't get great results. I never thought of mixing it! Great tip. Yes, please do a video ...if you find time😉x
No way I would ever spent that much money on those products, just think about all that money spend just hoping for a result of a younger looking face. With that money I could get a facelift.
I love your in depth reviews of everything skin care,, I'm so anxiously awaiting your review and experience using Adipeau..that range at least one I can afford to give a try...I just can't justify a $350 price tag on lotions and potions, I may as well go visit my dermatologist for a few pokes and fills😊 but, I do enjoy learning about the different ingredients from your channel. ..most interesting 👍
So glad you enjoy the reviews Lisa - and thanks for watching them : ) I'll report back on my Adipeau results in December because I want to give it the full 3 months. I too will be fascinated to see if it makes a difference. I'm two weeks in now.
I wish you were using Adipeau only before the expensive brand, because you put $$ one all over face. Now,hard to figure if Adipeu works since your face may still have residual aftermath of Auteur ingredients. Which may damage results! I think comments using only adipeu would be what I can effectively base my judgment and hope they will comment their findings to us. Thanks for your using products and your opinions.
Thanks Maryann. The Auteur ingredients aren’t going to stimulate fat renewal. I stopped using them on my cheeks and temples and I haven’t overlapped usage with the Adipeau cream at all on those areas so there’s no conflict there.
Hi. I don’t think it’s objective review if you are using other product that the ones to be reviewed. Not even if you didn’t stop using all kind of products and treatments for a period of time, before reviewing just the one in question ❤ Oh! It would be also great if you include review of scientifical articles of the products you are trying. Then it would be somehow more accurate ✌️
I'm afraid to use anything with growth factors. I heard a dermatologist say one time that there's no say in what those growth factors do to fibroblasts in skin and what they can stir up at a cellular level (proliferation) when it comes specifically to skin cancer. I'll pass on anything with growth factors for now until more studies are done on the matter. Then, there's the ridiculous price....
That’s interesting. I will look into that to see if there is any evidence around that suggestion because growth factors are being used more and more these days. As for the price, I do wonder just how many people will pay those prices and on an ongoing basis.
@@thehonestchannel please look into gf and cancer! I’m finding I turn to your channel daily now and can’t wait to see what new content/interviews you have ❤
@@cocochanel773 That’s great to hear, thank you! There’s no known link between growth factors and cancer as far as I’m aware but it is a very new treatment. Potentially they may reduce the risk - but we just don’t know for sure. I’m using the Calecim cream at the moment which contains stem-cell derived growth factors and my plan would be to use it for a three to four month sprint and then move to a different product to get the benefit and then rest my skin. I promise to look at this more closely in the new year though!
No, to be clear I used the Auteur in isolation for six weeks then I started using the Adipeau it’s just that I am continuing to use up the Auteur products on my T-zone until they run out. I am only using Adipeau on my cheeks and temples. There was no overlap of product on those areas.
As far as age spots I bought a mole pen that I use to lightly burn the skin and then they flake off and are gone a few days later. I experimented first using the age spots on my hands and they worked then I did them on my face and it worked. Use high doses of vitamin C everyday anyway I started using CurrentBody Red light mask and 2 spots popped up in my face which I will now use the mole pen on them and am not using the red light mask on my face and neck anymore- I do not go in the sun and work in a hospital so it had to be the mask that made them pop up so fast after using it for a couple weeks. Maybe omnilux is a better product. Those creams are just too expensive
Absolutely throwing money in the garbage, this line doesn’t do anything actually it’s very irritating because would not mix with any other products. Everything rolls off from your face, I never fell, I threw $800 in the garbage until I bought the line serum and density cream actually I am angry.
Sorry to hear you were so disappointed with these products. I think in these circumstances it's always worth emailing the company to share your experience. Some may refund or at least offer some kind of goodwill gesture.
@@thehonestchannel thank you so much for useful advice, but I’m not gonna do anything about it when I make mistake Usually, I learn. both bottles they are in the garbage and I feel so much better. At least they don’t take space on my vanity.
Enjoyed the video...The products really expensive..i have bought expensive products but this is really expensive$$$$. I am trying the Adipeau . I have been using it for two weeks and my skin looks very bright so far..i need to use it for awhile before seeing results. I use my regular serums and moisture with the Adipeau. I have dry skin. ....
The more I think about it the more I will be fascinated to see if there is a strong market for skincare products at this price - they are just so expensive as you say. I’m 10 days into the Adipeau. What I would say is apply it in a thicker layer and let it absorb before using your regular moisturiser. It needs to sit on top of the skin for a few minutes to sink down the hair follicles.
Maybe try Herbal Face Food for your age spots you mentioned. They make several levels of an extremely potent antioxidant serum that is hands down the most remarkable and fast working product I've ever encountered. Started using it one year ago and will never be without. Though I don't have any age spots yet I've heard others on youtube say it helped their melasma, etc. Cheers!
@@thehonestchannel My pleasure. Enjoyed this vid - I've been hearing the name Auteur and definitely taking note of the packaging but hadn't delved into the ingredients. All of the ones you spoke of are also the stars in another German line that I always look at (called MBR) and and wonder if I'll ever lose my mind and buy - they are quite a bit more expensive even if you can believe it!
@@Adhara740 That is a bummer. I will mention issues like that in my results video. Are you getting breakouts wherever you put it or could you continue to use it on selected areas? It is very oily and I’ve already had someone tell me it gave them a rash. I just use it on my cheeks and side temples.
Honestly what you described is the same ingredients in KIHL'S Retinol skin renewing Daily Micro Dose Serum, only with a big price difference it also make the skin balanced and smooth plus if you add Thierry powerful Strength line reducing Concentrate it does the magic, I am loving it
Hi Anna. I’ve been using it twice daily for 10 days now - applying it more heavily in the evenings. I’m going to give it a full 12 weeks before taking a view on my results. 🤞
Excellent review! You mentioned Adipeau which I am using since your interview but I noticed that caffeine can interfere with the product .I wrote the company but have not heard back .If you have any info I would appreciate it . Thank you love your clear and honest approach to all things that support better skin care!Wendy
Hi Wendy! So glad you find my videos helpful. I'm pretty sure the caffeine reference relates to its use in skincare, but I will let you know if it means anything else. For now I would assume they're advising not to use caffeine topically in skincare alongside the cream.
$300.00 for just one of their products? I would like to know if I may. How many different products do you use, and how much time do you spend applyiing all these products, also how much money would it take to use these products on a monthly basis? And wouldn't it be cheaper to get a facelift, fat transfer as dr amir karam is always taliking about when you consider how many years and the cost you will be using these products for?
This is a video covering my own routine ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7asSev0nWYs.html I did enjoy using the Auteur products, they're well made, but I wouldn't be able to justify the cost long term. There are a number of really great and less expensive products out there on the market.
I can see crow's feet and forehead wrinkles on me. Just a day ago I thought my face was wrinkle free! I'm scared and devastated. I'm 40 years old and I've been single for years. All of this makes me feel very anxious and I hate it!!! I'm hoping that face yoga, good quality sleep and products like this can help me but I can't afford the fancy skin care products yet.
Wrinkles are a natural part of life and I actually quite like mine. I like my skin to look bright and healthy though and I try to prevent sagging. Use sunscreen, maybe try a dermaroller to get the blood flowing to the skin plus a retinoid and you should be in good shape. No need to feel down or spend a lot of money.
Everyone seems to gravitate to a certain brand that works for them. I would love to see a video that reviews the top brands that have the best reviews and that real people can afford and love. Love your channel and content!
Thanks Debra! I did a video using AI to find the best-selling beauty products that also had the best consumer reviews and listed them in this video in case it's of interest. I actually bought the Biossance products after making this video and they're really good. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-3a0GT8rdh5A.html
If you look up perfluorohexane (basically first ingredient in some of their products for oxygen) the information is VERY alarming. It’s not only toxic to liver, but can cause cancer, endocrine disruption and least problematic…may harm skin more than it helps and may in time accelerate aging. The only product I would use from Auteur is the definitive line serum because it does not contain the Perfluorocomplex
This review is a few years old so there is more scrutiny now around this ingredient and PFAS in general. That said lots of things are toxic in high enough doses. PFAS are currently being monitored by the FDA for their impact on health. The small amount of existing research suggests PFAS are unlikely to pose a health risk in small concentrations, but the FDA has not yet reached a conclusion.
It's very interesting Clare, but really out of reach for 90% of us!! And thought AB was expensive!!! Let's hope it'll become like most technologies and come down in price with time!! Until then I'll have to age without spending the kids inheritance !!! Thanks for that.
Ha! Yes, no point remortgaging the house for a skincare line. I find it interesting to look at what they’re using in these ranges though. Over time these ingredients will become more accessible.
This is for celebrity purse strings for sure and I couldn't justify spending that type of money even if I had a limitless credit card. Claire, can you please do a review on the following product- Depology, DEEPCARE+ SERUM-INFUSED MICRO DART PATCHES. Thank you.
I hear you! I think a lot of people will agree that it's a price stretch too far. Happy to say I have already reviewed Depology micro dart patches ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-H6FzPXHiYUM.html
I should have made clear that I continue to use Auteur only on my t zone where I don’t use Adipeau. Adipeau is a targeted fat restoration cream so I’m only using it in selected areas. There is no overlap of product but I didn’t say that in this video so apologies for that.
T haankyou dear!like every time it is So interesting what you are sharing with us...l m....maybe for Christmas l.going to try it....It s really a good product.... i love all ingredient is totally complete... Greetings from Venice italy
Thanks Mary! So glad you enjoy my videos. I haven't tried that brand but I can make a note to take a look at it. Have you used it? I see it's quite expensive, but next to Auteur it looks like a bargain!!
Hello Claire, have you tried Cosmelan to lighten your age spots? They do have an in salon treatment regime but I just used the cream alone on a stubborn age spot on my upper cheek and it has completely disappeared 😊
@@thehonestchannel it started to fade after about 2 weeks of daily application just to the actual spot which was completely gone in 6 weeks. On a side note I purchased Adipeau after watching your interview with Ivan. Their customer service was amazing (they even gifted me a second bottle)❤️ I have high hopes for my 64 yo just starting to sag skin 😅
@@regroovable Thanks for the Cosmelan tip - I will try it. Really glad you’ve had a good experience with Adipeau. I think they are keen for people to use the cream for more than a few weeks because it can take 8 minimum to see any result and in their trial they were measuring changes from 3 months. I would make sure not to use a moisturizer under the cream and to pat it on to affected areas quite generously to leave a layer on top of your skin to sink in. Do let me know how you get on.
@@SkinObsessedMary I think it’s the cleanser that was my favourite as well, though the moisturiser is great for my oily skin. Real shame it’s so expensive.
