Guerlain Abeille Royale Youth Serum

Sometimes I swoon at beauty products, simply because they are so beautiful! How lovely is this new Guerlain Abeille Royale Youth Serum? This photo doesn’t do it justice. And you need a dressing table/vanity unit like Miriam Hopkins’ to display it on, don’t you think?!

It’s a gorgeous, weighty glass bottle with a gold coloured top, which you twist off,and this reveals a dropper, then its a little push on the gold button and the correct amout of serum drops on to your hand, ready to be applied.

Guerlain will look gorgeous on your dressing table....

It’s very decadent, very heavily scented, and very Guerlain. I’ve not been overly familiar with this grand old beauty brand, but I am really falling in love with it at the moment!

This Youth Serum gives ‘firming lift and wrinkle correction’. It focuses on the presence of skin trauma, what Guerlain call ‘micro-tears’ in the skin tissue, which apparently cauyse the dermis to ‘sink in’ and are responsible for skin ageing. This lovely serum, full of Pure Royal Concentrate – a mix of honey and royal jelly from France, works to help repair wrinkles and promote tissue firmness.

I’ve not used it for long, but it feels absolutely gorgeous, and it smells so heavenly and rich. If you’re into clinical products and brands this is not for you. But if you want a sensory experience, then this is it!
