Please note I didn’t include before and after pictures because I didn’t use the product consistently.
Back in July, I was gifted two products from Replenix. One of them happened to be there LIFTING + FIRMING NECK CREAM.
The other product I was sent was a body lotion and a nail file.
Since I tend to have a lot of skincare I try my best to use them as I can. This neck cream was something new for me to try.
I don’t really have a lot of lines or deep wrinkles on my neck nor do I have any real sagging. I do at times have a double chin so I hoping the firming part of the cream would be helpful.
The product
The Replenix LIFTING + FIRMING NECK CREAM is stated to help improve crepey skin help hydrate skin and even smooth skin.
You can use this product two times a day on your neck, jawline, and décolleté. The consistency of the cream is a bit thick so a small amount goes a long way.
I found it worked best on lightly dampened skin.
The cream is a yellowish-beige shade. I didn’t notice any scent to it.

my user experience
When I first tried it the weather was warmer. I felt it was a bit too oily. I may have applied too much. It did leave a very hydrating layer on my skin. I woke up the next day still feeling the product on my skin. I sort of used it on and off. I’ve been using it more at night and find it does hydrate well.
As far as the firming or lifting I haven’t seen any major changes. But again as I mentioned I don’t have any major issues with the skin on my neck. I don’t have large or deep wrinkles or sagging.
I will note I was curious to try it on my face and forehead too. (Yes I know this isn’t the product’s stated purpose.) But I can say it did work well for deep wrinkles on my forehead. So that is effective but as with any product, consistent use and time will be the only way to tell.
The overall cream consistency is good. As i mentioned above it is thick and creamy. It has almost a whipped feel to it. It spreads onto the skin well. You may need to massage it into the skin fully to make sure it’s absorbed.
The one thing I can say about the consistency of this cream is that it absorbs well into the skin. I didn’t notice any type of white caste or greasy feel. I also didn’t have an issue with it irritating my skin or pilling or flaking.

Is the product effective?
I would say for me it was more hydrating. Since I don’t have any major issues with the skin on my neck i found that it was hydrated and nourished my skin. I did see results with the large wrinkles on my forehead during my impromptu experiment.
As far as lifting or firming my décolleté skin I did notice more nourishment and hydration. wrinkles or creases seemed slightly smoother but nothing too exciting.
I would say everyone will have different results. So it’s hard to say if it lifted or firmed very well. I think if you are in better shape than I am you may notice results differently. You may also notice the changes in your skin better too.
final thoughts and where to buy
Final thoughts
Overall i am thankful for the complementary product from Replenix. This wouldn’t have been something I would have purchased for myself. I did like that the cream was a medical grade. It was thick and did give a nice feel to the skin. I also liked that I didn’t have any real adverse reactions to ti such as redness or chemical reactions with my existing product.
Am I disappointed by its effectiveness? not really i liked that it hydrated my skin. I figured I wasn’t going to have surprising results since I don’t have crepey skin or any deep wrinkles on my neck area. I can say my experiment did prove it does have some dramatic effects on forehead wrinkles though. But overall the product worked well. I didn’t really notice any firming of my skin but again everyone’s results will vary.
where to buy
This product can be found at a few retailers but I’ll link directly to Replenix so you can read more about the product.
Thanks again to Replenix for this complimentary product and the reviewing opportunity.
