My skin has not looked this good in years

Firm and Restore is an amazing product, even on my very sensitive skin. It was delivered promptly, the customer service was impeccable and I feel that my skin has not looked or felt this good in years.
It is excellent value for money as a little goes a long way.
Highly recommended.

I have seen a difference to my skin as soon as I used the restore cream.
My skin has never felt so fresh and at age 56 it has been looking tired lately
Even my family have noticed a difference.
I will be purchasing more also the nighttime restore.
I have tried numerous products from other retailers. Now I have eventually found the one that works perfect for me. I highly recommend to try this

Lovely product, irritating ordering process

I love the products even though they are more expensive than I would usually go for. Highly moisturising without being too heavy.

But I dread re-ordering because they will make you sit through an interminable video once you have already bought six bottles (threatening that the order might not go through!), to buy extra bottles at a cheaper price. AND this time I got a call from the States offering me an extra discount too if I did it over the phone. No way am I going to make a purchase from an unsolicited call. So basically the re-ordering process was even more offputting than normal.
I’m a fan, can’t you just make it quick and simple for us? If this happens again, I’m going to do more research into an alternative face cream.

Dear Angie,

Thank you so much for your honest and detailed review. We’re genuinely glad to hear that you love the products and find them highly moisturising without being too heavy — especially given that they’re a bit of a splurge for you.

We also truly appreciate your candid feedback about the re-ordering process. We're sorry to hear it felt frustrating and overly complicated. Your experience matters deeply to us, and we never want the ordering process to detract from the quality of the product itself. Please rest assured, we're actively working on making the re-ordering journey smoother and more user-friendly for our loyal customers.

Your continued support means a lot, and we hope to earn the opportunity to keep you as a happy customer — without the hassle next time.

Warmest regards,

A very nice simply packaged face cream

I've been using firm and restore for a few days now. It has a lovely citrus smell and absorbs into the skin easily leaving my face feeling hydrated and yes I have to say plumper. I'm 56 so my lines and wrinkles are a little more defined but I do think they are less noticeable. Maybe a bit of wishful thinking but even after just a few days I think there is a difference in a positive way. So hopefully in 30 days I shall really be able to say - "yes this is a lovely product "

Firm and Restore test

I'm a first time user of firm and restore. It is still early days as I've only just started using it but I can feel my skin tightening and much smoother. The next part of my face will be my neck which I'm going to try it on.
I will update you in a few weeks to see the progress.

Beautiful moisturiser!

Great product, promptly delivered!
I've only been using the cream for a few days, so too early to say. I have high hopes, however, as this lightweight moisturiser provides a wonderful, flawless base for my foundation.

I have been using the firm and restore…

I have been using the firm and restore for a few months now also, the eye cream. I have definitely noticed a difference with reduces lines around and under my eyes, my forehead and mouth. It's difficult for me to say if it's down to these products alone because i started taking collogan shots and suppliments around the same time. However, i will continue using these products because they feel beautiful on my skin as a stand alone moisturiser. Absorbs beautifully and leaves my skin silky soft with no greasy residue. It's light on the skin which makes it a pleasure to use too. I have just ordered the firm and restore night cream and i'm looking forward to that arriving. I love a night cream and i'm glad thos is in production because i've just been using the one product day and night. I think mentalky a night cream feels like a little slice of luxury. I've seen a couple of bad revuews and frankly i don't understand why. One was about the product and the other about customer service. Well yiu already know what i think about the product but, as far as customer service gies, i have to say they've been nothing short of exempolary so that's left me a little confused. In conclusion, i personally highly recommend the products i've used to date. I'll let you know about the night cream but, i expect that to be every bit as good.

Excellent products with amazing results.

Since using the Chelsea Lab products I have noticed massive improvements to my nails, they are back to the length and strength they used to be. Several people have commented on my lovely natural nails.

My hairdresser has commented on how my hair is thickenning up and in much better condition too.
This is all down to the great products from the Chelsea Laboratory.

Used my Firm and Restore Formula for the first time today. The cream is light and silky with a very pleasant slight aroma, which was easily absorbed into the skin on my face and neck leaving it feeling soft and smooth. Looking forward to future results!

A skin product that works

Wow … I started using my Firm & Restore Formula as soon as I received it - so I’ve only been using it for 4 days. Maybe that’s too early to tell what the full benefits will be but right now my skin definitely feels firmer & looks healthier & glowing. It gives me the confidence to wear minimal make up & still feel that I look good so I’m looking forward to its continuing effects!

Firm & Restore Formulas really do work

So, this is literally Day 2 of using Firm and Restore Formula (both day and night formulas) and already I have noticed a difference (which amazed me as I was sceptical); my “crows feet” seem to be less visible, as are my “frown lines” and also the lines that have appeared around my lips over the past year. Both formulas feel fantastic when applied and neither of them leave your skin feeling greasy as they’re both easily absorbed. My only wish is that I had discovered these products sooner! I’ve been a dedicated consumer of another major skincare brand for 30 plus years but I feel the “Firm and Restore” Formulas are my new “go to” products. Thank you for bringing such a great product to market, and for making it affordable for everyone so we can all enjoy better looking skin without the need of surgery.
