I already use a product with Volufiline in it on my lips, temples, and cheeks. It does work. The main reason I don't post much about it here is that it would be very involved to explain how the ingredient works, and lots of people would not believe that it even could have an effect. But it does for me...
If you're interested, use it anywhere you would want filler. It doesn't have nearly as dramatic an effect as filler, but when it works it can add a little subtle volume by increasing the subcutaneous fat a tiny bit.
@Porcelain , I'm one of the people who bit on the HSN offer, and now that it's arrived, I'm wondering exactly how to use it in conjunction with other products. The more I read about it, the more I think I'd like to apply it to very specific areas of my face, which will leave a lot of skin without anything on it unless I can apply moisturizer.
So from what you know, can retinol be used with this stuff? What's the order in which one would apply, say, Dr. Denese Hydroshield Serum, a general Denese moisturizer, and the Dr. Tree product with Volufiline? I know that using retinol requires vigilant use of UVA/B block, but do you know if that concern is increased with the Volufiline?
I looked at what YouTube had on it and could find only very young women "testing" it on their imaginary wrinkles or trying for fatter lips, but if there's an info source there or elsewhere you could suggest that could answer some of these questions, please direct me. TIA!
I can only tell you how I use mine. I use it at night and I put it on last, well after my regular routine has a chance to sink in. I don't use it during the day because my last step during the day is sunscreen and I just don't want to put anything on top of that, not because I think they would be incompatible in any way. Personal preference.
My volufiline cream doesn't seem to have anything in it that would make me avoid using it with retinol (in fact I do that) or sunscreen. The factor I take into account with it is that I don't want to encourage any subtle fat increase in certain areas, such as my nose, lower cheeks and jawline, so I don't like to apply it at the same time as applying products that are going to get spread everywhere on my face...Does that make sense? It's like a logic puzzle, which goes on first! lol
