Givenchy Le Soin Noir

givenchylesoinnoir.jpgIf sticky gooey black sap from the depth of the ocean doesn't sound appealing to you what about velvety rich skin? I received a sample of this goo from Givenchy and was hesitant to use it at first-- it's not the most appealing of color, texture or smell but vanity won out. After using it for a week, my skin had a velvety texture but my finger nails did not fare as well. They had a gray/black tint to them! I didn't want to stop using this so I did what any beauty obsessed snob would have done-- I made it work and bought surgical gloves in order to apply it.

The reason for the dark color is the Vital Black Algae Sap Concentrate-- an ingredient found in the depths of the ocean rich in vital fatty acids. This rare black algae extract been shown to protect skin cells' DNA from light-induced aging and wrinkles, and repair itself to form smoother, younger skin. Just make sure you wash your hands immediately after applying! Givenchy Le Soin Noir 1.7 oz $360 At Sephora.com Gimmick or miracle ingredient? Have you tried this?
