ANEW PLATINUM Serum

Platinum recaptures the look of youthful contours. THE BREAKTHROUGH TECHNOLOGY: Avon’s first-ever patented Paxillium Technology. Skin feels saturated in creamy comfort. 82% of women agree facial contours look reshaped for more youthful definition. * Overnight, skin on the face and neck feels lifted; deep wrinkles appear reduced.* After 2 weeks, reduces the look of deep horizontal lines in the neck area. Lifts and firms the look of sagging skin under the chin and neck. For best results, use morning and night. 1 fl. oz. *Based on women who expressed an opinion in a consumer-perception study. TO USE: AM & PM, smooth over cleansed face and neck. Some individuals, especially those with sensitive skin, may experience a brief tingling sensation following application. If this occurs, wait ten to fifteen minutes after cleansing before applying, or try using more sparingly, or less frequently until your skin accommodates. Hold bottle in one hand with your index finger resting on the button at the top. Then simply tilt the bottle toward the fingertips of your other hand, and press the button indent firmly and completely with your index finger until the serum appears. For the first use, you may need to pump the button several times to release the serum. With subsequent uses, the serum should dispense easily with just one pump using your index finger. As with any skin care regimen, Avon recommends the daily use of sunscreen to help prevent sun damage. WARNING: For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. If product contacts eyes, rinse thoroughly with water. If irritation develops and persists, discontinue use and consult a healthcare practitioner. Keep out of reach of children. Use only as directed.

wasteful container for an expensive product
Date:October 22, 2011
"the product may be good, but the container (albeit sleek) is horrible and wasteful of an terribly expensive product. Will never purchase it again unless it is packaged differently, nor will I recommend it. Have been using Avon for the last 45 of my 65 years and this is the first great disappointment I've encountered. hope it is rectified."

Pricey & Disappointing
Date:September 3, 2011
"I love the ANEW Platinum Night Cream & Eye/Lip Cream, too. Unfortunately, after trying the serum, I couldn't see any difference and decided that it was a waste of money and effort. So, I won't be ordering this product again. Very disappointing -- especially after the hefty price."

"This is a great product and I would recommend it. However, all of the Platnium products are highly fragranced, which I found more than a little overwhelming. Also, rather than to spend the money on its beautiful packaging, I would prefer twice the product in a tube. In the current packaging, the productt ran out without warning although I could still see product inside the vial that I couldn't reach.
Having said all of that, I did feel that I saw improvement in my skin.

The best serum
Date:June 17, 2011
"Whenever I try a new product - I always use it on only 1/2 of my face to see how it compares to the product that I use - because it was the best I could find up to that point. In very short time - a week?- I could see a noticeable decrease - especially in the jowls that have started appearing on my jaw line. I didn't measure - but I swear it looked 1/2 inch higher. I was amazed and switched to using this as my daily base. The other side caught up in no time. I hope to never be without this serum."

I THINK I like this product o.O
Date:June 7, 2011
"I've used this for over a month now struggling to pump out the tiniest bit. Today I decided to pry open the container to find out how much there was left. It was pumping more out the bottom than the top. The plunger never moved up and a ton of this expensive serum got wasted. The little I did use seemed to work nicely. Hard to tell though. A normal pump or squeeze tube would suffice and COST LESS to package."

Platinum Serum
Date:April 28, 2011
"This product has helped the fine lines on my neck so will try a second bottle. It's way too pricey for Avon level products however, and the bottle feels only half full. It would be nice to see how much is really in that bottle so a little clear line down the bottle would be helpful, especially if needing to re-order since it takes so long to get things from Avon."

Very Impressed.
Date:February 26, 2011
"I started using this when it was being offered in trial sizes. I immediately could tell a diffence in lines and wrinkles. Unlike others, I LOVE the cucumber-like fragrance. It is fresh and clean smelling. I noticed that when the full size was offered, the scent had been toned down; that's OK with me also. What really matters is that this product WORKS! I am 63 and have lost 30% of my body weight in the past year. Due to this happy weight loss, I have some sagging along the chin and jowl area which I wanted help with. I have used the serum and night cream ever since they were introduced. Just started using the trial day cream and also LOVE it. It is a wonderful base for under foundation. I no longer need a foundation primer, which I found settled in fine lines and made my skin look drier and thus older. All the Platinum line is wonderful. Although expensive, the product does go a long way. My only suggestion would be to make a thin, clear line on the bottle so we can tell when we are almost out. I have to keep an extra on hand because I can't tell when I will run out. One day, just poof - no more :)"

"My daughter gave me the Anew Platinum Serum for Christmas. After the 1st night I could tell a difference in my skin and with that feeling of smooth skin came the desire to continue. It's mid February and I've had so many compliments at work about never looking any older. What a great way to start the year."

Missed the filling machine
Date:February 5, 2011
"I think my bottle missed the machine that fills it with serum. I pump and pump and pump and nothing comes out. Then a dab will come out. This is another reason why Avon should re-package these serums. Plus the packaging is NOT environmentally-friendly!
When I finally did get some serum the perfume just about knocked me out. I do NOT want to put perfume on my face, Avon.

"I have only used this product for a fewweeks but I just can't stop touching my face. It feels so soft and smooth and just looks healthier. I love the smell and feel and I can tell the difference immediately. I use it with the night cream and the combination seems to work very well for me. It is expensive so I use it sparingly but some things are just worth it."

Date:January 21, 2011
"The only reason why I didn't give this product a full five stars was because of the price. Personally, I would love to continue using this product because I love it but I'm not sure that my pocketbook could afford it!
It works though, overnight differences and a drastic change in wrinkles and fine lines. I love it!

Such a disappointment
Date:January 2, 2011
"I have been using Anew skincare products for years. I swear by them. I purchased the new Platinum series in November and noticed my skin started looking very dull and the lines more pronounced. I used it for about 5 weeks but saw no improvement. I switched back to the Ultimate Serum and moisturizer and within 2 days my skin looked glowy and the lines much lessed pronounced - Yes - in only 2 days! The only positive on the Platinum Series is that they smell wonderful - but that's it."

I Love this Serum
Date:January 1, 2011
"I have finally found something that works. I bought this about two weeks ago and I am very pleased with the results. It goes on smooth, and you only need a little bit. I also bought the night cream with it and I love the results from both. Some reviews said they had a bad reaction, just to let you know I did not have any reaction, rash or burning."

"I have used other avon products but this is really amazing.. I ask for this for Christmas because the sales clerk who is also 50 said she uses it and her face was beautiful.. After 4 days I have had many compliments on my skin. My daughter who is 29 said I look like I have had a face lift.. This was music to my ears.. Love this product.. Although it is pricey, at 50 my skin is so worth it.. Thank you Avon"

Date:December 28, 2010
"I love the smell this serum has and reminds me of cucumbers. I could tell within a day that my skin was responding to the product immediately after I used it. The issue that I have is that the pump does not work every time and makes it difficult and frustrating when I want to complete my skin care regimen."

"I have to say I love this product. I bought it not realizing that it is for skin over 60 (I'm 51). But I just love it! My skin glows. Dark spots are lighter. Pores appear smaller. The scent reminds me of a cucumber/melon fragrance--not my favorite, but it disappears. Of course, I wish it weren't so expensive, but it's cheaper than going to a plastic surgeon."
