Natura Bisse Inhibit-Tensolift

It's not cheap but this product gets a big thumbs up from Annalisa Barbieri - all except the pump action bottle

Price: £460
Launched: Autumn 2006
Tested: throughout 2007 and 2008

Stockists: Space NK, www.spacenk.com, tel: 0208 740 208

If you read through this website long enough, you’ll see it’s no secret that I’m a big fan of Natura Bissé. I love that it never advertises and, to be frank, most people have never heard of it. This was one of the first ‘wrinkle reducers’ I ever tried and because of this I had no idea how good it was. I had no idea of the price either; I knew NB wasn’t cheap, but I think if I’d have known the price I would have stopped myself getting so addicted to it.

Out of all the wrinkle reducers I’ve ever tried it’s by far the best (as, you’d argue, it should be for the price but you’d be surprised at how often price doesn’t mean satisfying results). Because you need such a tiny amount - you dab it on each line – this can easily last a year, in which case it works out at just over £1 a day (can you see how I’m trying to make this better?).

I do however have one major gripe with the product. It comes in a pump action bottle and toward the end (but when a good 10per cent of the cream is left) it becomes very difficult to get the product out of the container by using the pump alone, you have to unscrew the top and dab it on that way. This, for the price, is pretty crap going. That said, it’s important to note that the few lines I have were completely kept in check by this product, when I stopped using it they became more pronounced. And thus the addiction continues…

Sounds marvellous but that price means I ca't even consider it. Aren't there any worthwhile products at a more reasonable price?

I was in Space NK recently looking for a good eye cream and the assistant was raving about how great this product was. I nearly fell over when she told me the price. I'm pretty sceptical about how effective a cream can be at reducing wrinkles (although that hasn't stopped me spending a small fortune over the years trying to find the fountain of youth in a bottle). Anyway, to cut a long story short I asked if they had any samples, which luckily they did. After about 3 days of using the smallest amount day and night I was hooked. It really does erase the lines. The only question now is can I bring myself to part with the cash.....

I am also a big fan. I'm 38 and I've been loosing face skin strenght in the last year, I've been feeling so depressed to see the firmness leaving me, so, a month ago as I was walking around the beauty hall of one of Mexico's more expensive department store, just looking for a miracle of an anti wrinkle cream and fortunately the Natura Bisse sales woman called me and said: I have something for you. Seh said it was called "the alternative to surgery" When I heard the price I thought: "maybe this is the magic I need". I don't regret as it's been money well spent. It costed me almost the salary of a month!, but how often one pays half and see no results at all.
