Road Test

Over the years I’ve tested many beauty products which have sounded too good to be true and overpromised results, and I have been disappointed with the outcome. And to be honest, when I heard about this new eye treatment from Advanced Cosmeceuticals I was a tad skeptical. Results in seven days? Sounds unlikely, but as ever I put the product to the test. First some background. ActivLayr Nano-Collagen Boost is a world’s first marine collagen nano-fibre eye patch, while also being the fastest, non-invasive bioactive dermal delivery system available today. It is scientifically designed to deliver bioactives - substances which have a biological effect - to depths of 2.5 mm into the skin, as well as proven to penetrate the deeper dermal layers, producing instant results. Composed of 100 per cent natural and sustainably sourced ingredients from New Zealand, marine collagen nano-fibres in the patch are infused with bioactives including kiwi fruit extract and hyaluronic acid, which aim to tighten, hydrate and rejuvenate the delicate skin around the eye area. In tests, an impressive 19 per cent reduction in wrinkle volume was recorded after daily application of ActivLayr over a seven day period. This means that, with instant results which build over time, it’s arguably the newest and quickest way to treat fine lines and wrinkles without being invasive. Using the patches is easy, making them ideal for anyone who’s busy, on the go, or prefers no fuss beauty treatments which produce results. First, you moisten the skin around the eyes so that the white ActivLayr collagen nano-fibre will absorb upon contact; the patches come with a handy little spritzer of natural spring water for this step. Next, you remove protective backing on one patch, being careful not to touch the white ActivLayr collagen nano-fibre, and you apply the patch firmly to the skin, making sure that the whole patch makes contact with the desired area of skin. If you’ve applied it correctly you should see and feel the patch "wet out". Then repeat on the other eye, leave both on for just five seconds, and peel off the patches. If any residue remains, dab it into the skin with damp fingertips until it has fully absorbed. I used the seven pairs of patches for seven days in a row at night before going to bed. Immediately after the first time I used ActivLayr the area treated felt tight but not uncomfortably so, and it definitely produced instant results; the skin around my eye area looked smoother, and well hydrated. Over the seven days I noticed results continuing, with any fine lines definitely less visible and the eye area looking more plump and hydrated. These fabulous patches don’t come cheap but they do deliver a significant boost. If you’re about to take a trip, or have an important event coming up, they are easy to schedule into your skin care regime and use for results.

Insider Tips

• Make sure you wet the skin sufficiently before applying the patches, and ensure the patch fully "wets out", as the white ActivLayr collagen nano-fibre is designed to dissolve completely upon contact with wet skin.
• If there is any ActivLayr left after removing the patches, press it to wet skin until it has fully absorbed.
