Erno Laszlo

Anti-Aging Skin Care

Dr. Erno Lazlo was a Hungarian dermatologist that developed a number of revolutionary products, first, starting back in 1927.   Dr. Lazlo was the first to develop sunscreen, products with PH balance, products formulated with water for oily skin, products for teens, facial products for men, and the first to prescribe skin care rituals. Back in the late 1930′s he settled in New York City and has had some of the world’s most beautiful and famous women as clients like Ava Gardner, Marilyn Monroe, and Jackie Kennedy to name a few.  After launching a retail line in the 1960′s thousands of women have been able to enjoy his marvelous products.

After speaking with an Erno Laszlo representative I told them as a woman in my late twenties (alright fine, early thirties), I am concerned mostly with keeping my skin looking young and to target the two fine lines slowly appearing on my forehead.  I was sent three items to try all from the TranspHuse line: the TranspHuse Night Serum, TranspHuse Topical Deluxe, and the TranspHuse Eye Cream.

Now let me preface my experience with the Erno Laszlo products by saying that I have tried four or five anti-aging products in the past from brands like Oil of Olay, L’Oreal, Clinique, and other similar makers.  I have tried facial scrubs, day cream, night cream and eye treatments all with varying success.  Some caused my combination skin to break out, others left me terribly oily, and some even dried out my face.  I never felt like I saw a noticeable difference in my skin’s general appearance or in the two fine lines slowly making themselves a home on my forehead.  Although I did research the Erno Laszlo line prior to accepting the offer to review the product, I still assumed that I would not see a difference.

I began using all three products as directed and to my delight 5-7 days after my first application my fine lines (okay, wrinkles) on my forehead had disappeared.  That’s right, they are gone.  I used to joke and say I was going to get botox for my 33rd birthday this summer, and now, apparently, I won’t have to even joke about it anymore.  I was curious to see if perhaps these products were causing swelling or something that would create the illusion that the lines were gone, so I stopped treatment for a few days.  The lines were gone, and so that it stays that way, I am back to using the TranspHuse night serum and eye cream daily and I have begun using the TranspHuse topical every other day (which by the way can be worn under make up).

I’m not going to pretend to understand the science behind it, but here’s the TranspHuse description on the Erno Laszlo website:

“Debating a cosmetic procedure? Consider using TranspHuse Topical instead. This state-of-the-art formula, with skin-firming and line-plumping dermaxyl and marine filling spheres, also contains gatuline expression which minimizes the micro-contractions in the skin for a smoother, noticeably younger appearance.”

I’m also not going to pretend these Erno Laszlo products, although worth every penny, are not expensive by most people’s standards.  However, if you were debating on having a cosmetic procedure done, this is a much less expensive alternative, and one that really worked for me.  So treat yourself ladies (or guys), or give the gift of younger more youthful skin this holiday!

You can find Erno Lazlo in major department stores like Nordstrom’s, or you can shop right from the Erno Lazlo website.  Find products to suit your skin type, skin concern/problem, or by category.  You can also find them on Facebook and Twitter.
