Directions For Best Results: 1. Cleanse skin thoroughly. (Excess oil or other product residue may lessen the tightening effect.) 2. Try exfoliating as product may cling to flaky skin and cause white residue. 3. Pat skin dry. Do not use moisturizer, as this will reduce the tightening effect. 4. Shake tube. To control application, squeeze a dime-size amount on the back of your hand first. Using your fingertip or dry makeup brush, take product from back of hand as needed, starting with a tiny amount (less is more, to avoid white residue). Spread onto fine lines, deep wrinkles and pores. 5. If more product is needed, apply quickly while first layer is still wet. Layering onto dry product may result in white residue. 6. Stay expressionless for 3 to 7 minutes so product can properly set and dry. If needed, once dry, pat away any residue with a damp cotton swab. Tip: Apply foundation and other makeup as needed. Oil-based and/or powder formulas are ideal, as water-based makeup may weaken the tightening effect.

- Q
Can you use with Silicone base makeup?
- Asked by Chrissy
- Official Answer By Peter Thomas Roth - Brand EngageThanks for reaching out! Yes, Instant FIRMx® Face works best when applied directly onto clean, dry skin without eye cream. If you require extra hydration and use a moisturizer, wait until the product is fully absorbed and skin is completely dry before applying Instant FIRMx® Face. If applying makeup after Instant FIRMx® Face, powder formulas are best, to avoid disrupting the product effects. However, if you do apply liquid or cream makeup, avoid water-based formulas as these can break the bond of Instant FIRMx® Face.Was this answer helpful to you

- Q
Does it leave a whitte residue light the under under tightner
- Asked by Sharon
- Official Answer By Peter Thomas Roth - BE - DisabledNo, this product does not leave a white residue when applied correctly. Thin and sparingly is the best way to apply Instant FIRMx Face. If you apply too heavily, you may see a little white residue. If this is the case, remove Instant FIRMx Face and try to apply thinner. If you still see a little white residue, you can pat away by moistening your fingertip or a cotton swab. You can also conceal the whiteness by gently dabbing on powder makeup or oil-based foundation. Once you take the time to get this product right, you will achieve outstanding results!

Nose to mouth lines not as deep!
I tried it in store and was pleased with how my lines hardly showed! After, using my sample at home I decided to buy it! I considered injectibles but now I am happy with the results I am getting with this cream. Lines do not disappear 100% but 75% is good for me!

Used to be great - Now inconsistent quality
I've been using Instant FIRMx for over 9 years. It used to be great - just the right consistency. Over the past few years I've received so many tubes that: 1) have grainy particles (like tiny sand) that leave tiny white specks on the face, and can't be used. 2) Are sometimes clear, sometimes yell...

Taking back to the store
You can feel the product working. It elemenates the lines, but has a white coating appearance after it dryes. When you take off the white coating as it suggests, the lines come right back. This would work great if you could apply over your makeup.
No, I won't buy again
I bought this a while ago and wasn't happy with the scale left when dry but I waited a few years to repurchase hoping it would have been reworked to not scale when it dried but nope still the same. Won't purchase again
Still debating if I would buy again
Works on part of my face well but not so good on other parts of face. My expectations were higher than the results I'm getting.
Doesn't work!
I got this for my mom and I just to try and it doesn't work. Save your money! You look beautiful without it
I would not buy this product again. Going to go get my money
It's horrible
