AA says 4/5. I sometimes dislike Matrixyl because I get little whiteheads on my nose. What do I love? The fact that my skin looks more youthful and hydrated. I don’t have crow’s feet developing after four months of use.
YM says: I love The Ordinary Matrixyl. Buffet did nothing for me, but this made my skin really hydrated and plumped up 4.5/5. I use it sandwiched in my 7 skins… And it’s been a game-changer.
KM says: I really like it. It definitely made my skin plumper, and fine lines were less visible.
SC: I really like The Ordinary Matrixyl. It’s definitely plumped my skin and made it softer. I use it in the mornings or evenings when I’m not using acids.
DJ says: I spot use The Ordinary Matrixul around my eyes, number 11’s and marionette lines. Very happy with the results as it plumped up the eye area and smoothed the 11s and marionette lines. Part of my Dailey routine, and I will continue to use it.
KR says: I love Matrixyl and Argireline combo. 11’s so faint you can only see them up close, and even then, they are very difficult to see.
MM says: Matrixyl made my skin in no time (4 weeks) very smooth, and my deep wrinkles changed to fine lines… especially under my eyes. Love it.
Matrixyl Review
NA says: Good product, I will buy it again.
KM says: 4/5 makes skin look plumper. IT definitely improves skin condition. The texture is a bit sticky.
TE says: Matrixyl is the foundation of my skincare after cleansing. I love it. It gives me a plumper, more youthful glow; I won’t be without it, and I don’t care what other products have as an ingredient. I like it on its own.
AN says: I gave 2/5. I didn´t find Matrixyl helped with lines, but it is 200% not clogged. I’m still using it just as a small treat as hydration for my forehead.
ED says: I only started using Matrixyl again after it broke me out. Concentrating on lines around the eyes and 11’s. Hope by just using it in specific areas, I won’t break out again.
