Week 1: Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair


January is still a pretty hectic month for me because of work. Weddings are crazy since the start of December. Don't get me wrong coz I'm not complaining. I love my work :) 

But a lot of times for the past weeks I've been sleep deprived and I had to wake up super duper early for a morning wedding. And that's a bit unhealthy for my skin plus the fact that I love caffeine haha. When my skin is in a bad condition, I usually notice my foundation doesn't stick or blend well on my skin. I notice that too on some of my clients who weren't able to sleep well before their big day.

Week 01: I incorporated the Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair on my usual skin care routine (Watson's Collagen Hydrating Cleansing Gel, Celeteque Dermoscience Acne Solutions Toner, Celeteque Sun Care SPF 30 (morning moisturizer), Estee Lauder Time Zone Night (night moisturizer). On my photo abovem you won't see most of my flaws in this photo as I had my Cinema Secrets Concealer and foundation on. On my first week of using it, the only thing I noticed is that my skin got more hydrated than before. My makeup glides on better even when my schedule got busy. 

And that's my first report. What do you think? Don't forget to join my Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair giveaway if you wanna have a chance to try it too.

Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair

I received these two bottles of Advanced Night Repair Serum from Estee Lauder last Thursday. One for me to try and share my experiences with you for four weeks and one for a lucky reader of this blog :) But I was busy during the weekend because of the bridal fair so it's just tonight that I'm going to include it to my night time skin care regimen.

Why I decided to try? Well...I'm not getting any younger and fine lines around the eyes and dry skin on some parts of my face are starting to appear. Some people tell me that I look younger than my age but that is when I'm dressed up or wearing makeup. My goal before my birthday (this coming April) is to receive the same compliments even when they see me with bare face or in simple clothes haha because right now I feel like my skin look dull. Momming mommy. haha!

That's why glad when I was offered to try this out. I have high hopes for this product as Estee Lauder is well-known for great skin care products. In fact, I'm still using the Time Zone that they gave me a few months ago and I like it.  Read on to know the promising benefits of this product:



The one formula beautiful skin can’t live without. This comprehensive, high-performance anti-aging serum-inspired by groundbreaking DNA research-brings your skin a dramatic reduction in the visible signs of aging. Use it every day to help continuously repair the appearance of past damage, prevent future damage and deliver high levels of hydration.If you want younger, healthier-looking skin now and in the future, don’t go a night without it.


Visible Results, Proven Success


Even the best can get better. This advanced formula-with 20 patents worldwide, and backed by 25 years of research-includes all the benefits you love about the original, plus more to help your skin repair itself like never before:


Exclusive Chronolux™ Technology

  • Repairs the appearance of past damage.
  • Addresses damaging effects before they become permanent.
  • You’ll see a visible improvement in the signs of aging-specifically lines, uneven skintone and immediate hydration.

Enhanced Environmental Repair

  • Neutralizes up to 90%* of environmentally generated free radicals before they can affect skin’s appearance.
  • That’s key, because environmental assaults such as UV, smoke, pollution and even emotional stress are the #1 cause of premature signs of aging.
  • Our advanced technology repairs the appearance of damage caused by every major environmental assault.

Continuous Hydration

  • Creates the optimal environment for repair with nature’s long-proven moisture magnet Hyaluronic Acid.
  • Clinical tests prove skin’s levels of moisturization increase dramatically.
  • Soothes daily irritation and builds a rich anti-oxidant reserve to help replenish skin’s natural protectants. Think of it as “insurance” for younger, healthier-looking skin, today and tomorrow.

How to use:


Apply every PM on clean skin. Follow with your moisturizer.
Use several drops.
Smooth in gently all over face and throat.


I'm pretty excited to see how much improvement my skin will have after 4 weeks :) And the good news is you too can have a chance to try this product too. Here's how this is going to work:

1) You must be a follower of this blog.
3) Tell me why you deserve to try this product out by answering this question thru a comment on this post:  "Why do you want to look younger on your next birthday?". Include your name and email.
4) Open to Philippine readers only Sorry!

Give your best shot as the Estee Lauder team will be choosing the best answer. You have until February 13 to join.
