ASOS kindly included the L'oreal Youth Code Day Lotion SPF 30 as a free gift with my recent purchase and I was happy to get it since it is something I would be able use. I'm currently a happy recurring user of Eucerin Daily Protection Moisturizing Face Lotion SPF 30 but am always on a lookout for similar products that I can try since I simply love trying out new skincare products.
I've seen the Youth Code commercials but never really paid any attention to it. From its name, I gathered it has some anti-aging effects as well. After trying it on for several days, here's a breakdown of the pros and cons based on my experience. I should note here that I have very oily skin.
Pros
Sleek packaging with user friendly lock pump. The pump bottle has a turn and click lock that I find very convenient, no need to be afraid of product oozing out should you leave it in your bag.
Combines moisturizer and sun protection and anti-aging technology in 1 product. I wake up at 5am in the morning. I will not give up sleep to preen myself, so I am thankful for products that are multi purpose.
Lightly floral scented, easy on the nose
Cons
Makes my skin oily 4 hours after application. It creates a slick feeling I hate and even after blotting, the stickiness remains. Major flaw in my opinion as an oily face makes me uncomfortable the rest of the day.
Price point is rather high. At $19.99 (Target's price) for a 1.7oz bottle, I don't see the value since my 4oz Eucerin costs less than $10.
In conclusion, I regret to inform I would not be a buyer of this product. Perhaps it is more geared towards consumers with normal to dry skin.
