Genie Instant Line Smoother - Thoughts

AngelPuppy1 — Sat, 01 Feb 2025 12:35:58 GMT

I just saw that there is a Genie Instant Line Smoother set - a larger bottle and a smaller bottle for $40 - which I thought was a good deal. Does anybody use this still - and if so do you enjoy it? I think I used it ages ago but can't remember for sure. It might have been a similar product? Is this the same thing that Leigh Valentine represented here a long time ago?

Anyway, does anybody like this? I thought it might be something mild and gentle to use on my sensitive skin.

Thanks!

It didn't do anything? Oh, my --- that's not right that they act like it does something. I watched the demo and it looked kind of nice. Thank yo!

@AngelPuppy1 it cracks and krinkles when you smile and you can't put anything over it, like any foundation or concealer. Just not good IMHO.

I’ve always been curious about these products but whenever I read reviews, they mostly say exactly what @AngelPuppy1 said.

I tried it too and I agree with @Jacie --saw absolutely no difference. Just hype!!

Leigh Valentine never was the rep for Genie, she was the rep for Distinctions .

I get very positive results from using PTR Line Smoother and the one from Westmore, use these mainly under the eyes. sometimes I mix the 2 since Westmore is tinted.

I have tried several of these products in the past including Genie.

They work up to a point....however they tend to leave a white film & residue, they are basically a glue that smooths out wrinkles & puffiness but you can't put makeup on over it and don't sweat!

I also don't think it's very good for your skin.

@AngelPuppy1 I tried it as well....it did nothing except leave my face tight, white and dry. All those products are the same.

The active ingredient in all of these types of products are made from silicates, which is what leaves the white residue.

@Jacie

Oh, no. When I asked the automatic question thing -- I forget what it's called, it claimed that you applied it first, then waited for it to dry, then you could apply your regular moisturizer. It also said you could mix it with your foundation. I wonder why it said that? Not good info that it gave. Thank you!

Oh, o.k. That was a different product. I thought maybe it was the same thing! Thank you!

I tried it years ago when Bob Bowersox presented it. It felt like paste on and it cracked. Unless they changed the formula I wouldn't waste your money.

Thank you. I don't think this sounds like a good product at all!
