   Never thought I would need to worry about neck lines – at least for another decade, but in the last few months I’ve been noticing a horizontal line that starts a few inches below my ear lobe and runs right the way around to the other side. To make it worse, on one side there is another line branching off diagonally from that one. The cause of the secondary line is from a repeated movement, in this case turning my head to that side in particular (which is why I don’t have the same problem on the other side). The main line however is just a result of age, or as I’d prefer to describe it: a breakdown in collagen.

   At $165 USD for 2.5oz this is one of the more upmarket neck creams available. It’s an SPF15 formulation which is a bonus as I don’t have to use a sunblock on top of this one. It’s a rose-fragranced scent which is nice but not strong enough to clash with my perfume. Been using diligently every AM and PM as instructed.

   Ok personally I feel that the SPF in a formula used on a night time application is unnecessary. Add to that a lack of Retinol or Vitamin C to help rebuild some of that collagen production that is needed to lessen neck lines, plus an absence of any other ‘rebuilding’ ingredients as far as I can see from the list and I do have to stop and wonder what it is doing for me. However I’m adamant this should have been in 2 formulas – one just as it is, with SPF for the day and one night time version with Retinol/Vit C added and no SPF. I think this combination would have worked far better and given more noticeable results (Hello Revive employees if you happen to be reading!). Definitely seems like a missed opportunity.

   Did I see results? Well I used for a total of 2 months, in which time the only difference I did notice was to the appearance of some fine lines on my neck, nothing on the horizontal one. At least not that I can discern. Might be worth me trying for longer and I may re-purchase for that reason, but the line of neck/decollete creams on my dressing table itching to be tried tells me that won’t be anytime soon!

   I have been using Revive Fermitif’ Neck Renewal Cream for over a week now, and although it is too early to see the full results, I have noticed improvement in the texture of my skin.

   I am giving it 4 stars at this point because it is too early to say how good it is.

   It will not get rid of deep wrinkles or a pronounced turkey neck. It will however firm the skin of your neck and smooth out vertical lines on your chest (the ones we all love love to see in the morning right after getting out of bed), at least temporarily.

   It is also a good moisturizer for the face. I have also used it around my eyes without irritation. It is a nice pick me upper right before going out at night. It will add a nice glow to your face and neck area without diluting your makeup.

   A bit pricey but given that this cream is a multitasking product and in comparison with other moisturizers on the market, it’s actually not that bad.

   Having said that, I would still recommend retinoids at night and a good sunscreen during the day in addition to this neck cream. Those remain the gold standards of skincare.

   I wanted to like this. My neck is the worst part on my body. Due to excessive sun tanning (wish I could go back in time…), my neck is wrinkled and ‘drooping’. I bought this expensive cream, given the number of positive reviews. It smells really nice – a subtle rose scent. It goes on smooth and feels good too. But I started to break out in a rash within a few days. When I went back to SpaceNK, they were not surprised (figures, after I buy it) and said it was a very ‘active’ product, which I guess means exfoliants and enzymes. I waited a few weeks and tried again, but same reaction. I then went to Boots and bought Botanical calming cream for £2 and it calmed my neck down and smoothed it a bit. Go figure.

   This review may be premature. I just tried a sample. But this left my neck so soft. I am headed back tomorrow to buy the full size. It is $150 USD, pricey, but probably worth it. I will update in a month.

   Believe it or not, I use this cream on my face during the dry, cold, New York winter (I also use Retin-A Micro so my skin is already parched). I received a jar as a gift with purchase, and one night I found myself out of face cream. I thought, why not? It isn’t at all greasy or overly occlusive, the fragrance isn’t irritating, and it smells and feels wonderful. No breakouts. So if you have a jar of this cream that you feel you’re under-utilizing, try a little on your jawline and see what you think.

   I got tons of this product in free sample packs at Saks. I didn’t think I’d use it, seeing as I don’t have problems with my neck yet, but I tried it and now I’m addicted, lol!

   I used to get little bumps around my jaw line, but with those have completely smoothed out and disappeared and the results were almost immediate.

   I have sensitive skin, so I’m usually wary of products with a smell, but this one has had no negative effect on me (and I actually really love the rosy smell.)

   I got a tub for my birthday in July and it’s still almost half full (I use it morning and night). It really goes a long way, which is how I justify buying all of my Revive’s products, lol. Plus, it might just be the store I go to, but the Revive people give TONS of free samples and are super nice (and have even pointed me toward products other than Revive, so I feel like they’re trustworthy… although that might be just what they want me to think, lol.)

    I bought this product based on results from reviews I read here & am very happy I did. As one of the others reviewers mentioned, I personally don’t find any firming qualities in this cream, but my neck is very soft & smooth feeling & the slight crepe look I had has improved in only a few days. I admit I’m very skeptical when I read reviews claiming results in such a short period of time, but this really has made a difference for me. My neck isn’t in what I would deem bad condition so I don’t know how helpful it would be for those with lots of sun damage, etc., but it seems to be working well on my minimal problems. The only thing I would prefer is for it to be unscented, it’s not an offensive fragrance I just prefer unscented products if given the option.
