“Years of Neck-Lect” : StriVectin Neck Care Review
I knew I should have been taking care of my neck, but I didn’t. I moisturized it…sometimes. I don’t remember ever putting sunscreen on it. My neck was an afterthought, really. But now I can’t ignore the damn thing because the years of neck-lect are staring me in the face.
My neck has fallen, and it can’t get up.
And now there’s a whole new set of wrinkles collectively called TECH NECK. From constantly looking down at our phones or tablets, about 221 times a day, our necks are paying a price. It really doesn’t stop at your neck, though…
Besides those creases in your neck that develop from always looking down, Tech Neck also includes sag at the jawline. Don’t believe me? Open your front-facing camera and look down at your phone. If you dare…
If your neck bothers you, there is help. StriVectin has designed three products to deal specifically with the skin on your neck.
Let’s start with what I consider the star of the StriVectin Neck Care trio: Tightening Neck Serum Roller!
This is so easy & convenient to use! Flip the head to “on” and roll the serum onto your neck. Flip the head to “off” and use the roller to massage the serum into your skin. This claimed my neck would “feel instantly firmer,” so I took pictures of one use. This is ONE USE, with no other product applied, and the pictures were taken mere minutes apart. I HATE posting this picture highlighting my neck wrinkles, but you really need to see this.
The left is before, the right is after application. Have all the wrinkles vanished? No. But they have definitely lessened in their appearance. The vertical lines in the “before” picture look less defined and way less crepey. The length of the horizontal crease in the circle has shortened!
How many products have you tried that showed immediate improvement after ONE application? Over time this serum promises, “Improved elasticity and visibly enhanced neck and facial contours. A more defined & youthful appearance.
You can use the serum any time you want to refresh your neck skin. I’ve been using it am & pm, and over time I have noticed firmer skin and improved appearance on my neck. You can bet I’ve been rolling this on my jowly jawline. too. FIRM. IT. UP.
The other two products in StriVectin’s Neck Care are also incredible:
- TL Advanced Tightening Neck Cream (Original)
- TL Advanced Light Tightening Neck Cream
-
- Original Formula
-
- Light Formula
Both of these give the same benefits, but the light formula is of thinner consistency.
According to StriVectin, both formulas:
- Visibly tighten, lift and smooth lines on the neck
- Features Gravitite-CF Lifting Complex™ to fight the visible signs of gravity and Tech Neck
- Strengthen the skin barrier to prevent moisture loss
Following the serum, I’ve been using the thicker cream at night and the thinner in the day. I like the light scent of both, and I LOVE the results. If you like a thinner formula, choose the light version of the original cream. I am just trying both for the purposes of this review. When used regularly with the serum, these products actually did improve the look of my neck.
If you’re guilty of criminal neck-ligence like me, don’t worry.
There is hope for us all from the StriVectin Neck Care products.
These products were provided to me as PR samples for consideration for review. As always, these are my honest opinions. If a product doesn’t work well for me, I don’t review it.
