- 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!

I've been using and loving the instant face/eye tightener and I think your customers will get a better result if you tell them to remove any whiteness that results after it dries, by using a minute amount of coconut oil not water because water causes whiteness

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...

I would not buy this product again. Going to go get my money
It's horrible
Never again
I tried this for a week and all it did for me was , burn and make my face feel and look like sand paper. The moment any kind of moisture or movement happens the product vanishes but the gritty feeling and look stays. I do not recommend this product.
I will continue to buy this product
This product really works. I use it everyday and am very happy with the results. Wish I'd known about it sooner.
I am shocked
I am 34 and have noticeable fine lines only while wearing make up. I put this on per the instructions and am shocked. My skin literally looks like I am in an korean skin advertisement. I have a huge event and need to be very presentable. This did exactly what I needed it to! Hopefully it lasts long under make up.
Love the results!
My sister and I did before and after pics of under our eyes and we were pleasantly surprised with the results! The only downfall is the white mark it leaves behind but it's hardly noticeable.
