The new Kate Somerville Tightening Gel, Tight ‘ N Cryogenic, instantly tightens and firms the appearance of the skin. In addition, the Tightening Gel claims to reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles. Also important, Tight ‘N Cryogenic gives short and long-term results. Kate Somerville, the gel’s creator, has devoted the last 18 years of her life to skin wellness. Not only is Kate at the forefront of skin care product development, her innovative concepts work. In fact, Kate’s Gel uses a unique delivery system.
Surprisingly, the science of cryogenics( a branch of physics dealing with the production and effects of very low temperatures) was the inspiration for the new Tight ‘ N Cryogenic. And, you can Purchase Tight’N Cryogenic at Sephora and Kate Somerville.com. for $98.
Kate Somerville Tightening Gel Tight’N Cryogenic Packaging
First, the packaging box looks icy cold. Specifically, the shiny, stark white color resembles snow. Additionally, icy, mirrored silver outlines the box. It looks freezing! I especially love the glistening slivers of glittery, silver ice lying on the “snow.”
Next, the white bottle has a silver lid. Surprisingly, the cap is made from a flimsy, cheap piece of plastic. And, the cap could easily break. Moreover, Kate Somerville products have always been high-end. Furthermore, the gel is expensive. Therefore, the packaging disappoints me. Most important, the cap will crack and break if you pull on it. So, do be careful not to pull on the cap.
Last, an actuator dispenses the product. Another reason to be careful,In my experience, is the product shoots out of the dispenser.
Kate Somerville Tightening Gel Tight’N Cryogenic Formula
First, you will hear a snap, crackle and pop when the foam first hits your skin. In fact, it almost sounds like the pop rock candy we used to put in our mouths. It really crackles!
Again, cryogenic science was the inspiration for the delivery system. Therefore, when applied, the foam is freezing cold. Additionally, this cooling effect will last for several minutes.
The formula includes the most advanced tightening and firming ingredients.
Another ingredient called Glycoprotein is in the formula. Glycoprotein comes from mud in Antarctic. It delivers cryoprotective properties that protect the skin from any sensitivity from the cold application.
Also, Alcohol Denat is formula ingredient number three. It is alcohol with chemicals. As a result, you can not drink it. Cosmetic and personal care products include alcohol denat (denatured). As a result, the product smells like rubbing alcohol.
Kate Somerville Tightening Gel Tight’N Cryogenic Application
Because the product shoots out of the actuator, I do not recommend you use your fingertips to apply. Instead, I cup my hand. Next, I press the actuator. Then, I aim it into the palm of my hand. Finally, I apply the product by massaging it onto my face. Of course, it will feel weird. At first, it feels really cold. Also, the texture is foamy. Furthermore, it will crackle like pop rocks. At first, the product feels a little sticky. So, allow it to dry thoroughly. Once dry, it will feel smooth.
The directions recommend using the gel morning and evening as the last step in your skin ritual.
Kate Somerville Tightening Gel Tight’N Cryogenic Results
It really works! Instantly, I could feel my skin getting tighter. And, my skin instantly looked firmer! Yes, I could instantly see these results.
Sum
The Tight’N Cryogenic is a COOL product! I mean that literally! I also mean that figuratively, like it’s really groovy?!? Moreover, It is a fun product. Sephora Makeup Artist Extraordinaire, Meredith, told me that every time she walks past it, she squirts some on! She loves to hear it crackle.
Equally important, the gel really does what it promises to do. Hence, it is a great product!
BUT
Remember when I told you about the alcohol denat? It is listed number 3 in the ingredients. And that means, there is a high concentration of alcohol in the product. Well, alcohol isn’t good for our skin because it dries it out! Really- it’s Not Good!
So, what do we do now? One, the gel works. Two, it is fun to use. Three, who wouldn’t love the results? Now What?
Thinking………
O.K. Got it……
I am not going to use the product twice a day. Wait, I’m not even going to use it everyday. My skin is too dry already. However, for special occasions, I will definitely use it. After all, it totally gives instant results! And, there is nothing I love more, than immediate gratification!!!!!
And You? What would you do? Would you return it? Would you keep it and use it for special occasions? Talk to me in the comment section below! I love your feedback!
