As most of you might know, I tend to be more interested in lifting serums, Sisley Sisleÿa l’Intégral Anti-Âge Anti-Wrinkle Concentrated Serum is probably the only 'anti-wrinkle' serum that I had my eye on ever since its renewal. It may be because I wasn't very impressed with their serum before renewal, and I guess it kind of triggered my curiosity how the new version would be different from the old one. Above all, I was most intrigued by the whole concept revolving around their Sisleÿa range, which includes behavioural aging, so I had to try Sisley Sisleÿa l’Intégral Anti-Âge Anti-Wrinkle Concentrated Serum.
Scent & Consistency
As Sisley Sisleÿa l’Intégral Anti-Âge Anti-Wrinkle Concentrated Serum has a fast absorbing gel texture, it comes in a convenient pump bottle. There's isn't much of a strong alcohol feel or scent, and it doesn't smell of potent essential oils.
I'm very sensitive to different scents, but Sisley Sisleÿa l’Intégral Anti-Âge Anti-Wrinkle Concentrated Serum never irritated my skin nor has it given me any kind of headache. I find the scent quite soothing and calming, and I love the fact that it gives a semi-matte smooth finish without creating a veil on top.
Benefits
Wrinkles symbolize our journey through life and our experiences. Caused by a variety of factors, they can be attributed to age and facial expressions, as well as to the environment and busy lifestyles. After the launch of Sisleÿa L'Integral Anti-Age, Sisley Research is going even further in its innovation and going back to the very origin of behavioral aging by launching Sisleÿa L’Integral Anti-Age Anti-Wrinkle Concentrated Serum for visibly smoother skin that radiates youthfulness.
DOUBLE INNOVATION FROM SISLEY to act against multiple types of wrinkles:
1/ "Awakening" the skin’s anti-wrinkle potential
Natural aging and lifestyle damage collagen production, responsible for the smooth appearance of the skin surface. Porcelain Cacao extract, a new Sisley key ingredient, very rich in polyphenols acts to awaken and boost the skin’s anti-wrinkle potential. Wrinkles and fine lines look reduced.
2/ Regenerating the skin deep down
Wrinkles also result from profound changes in the structure and composition of the dermis. A combination of powerful plant-based key ingredients (Soy peptide, Blue Agave Yeast, White Willow leaf, Rosehip and Iris extracts) act on different levels within the skin to provide a complete anti-wrinkle response. Replumped from within, wrinkles are visibly smoothed and facial features are relaxed. The face looks visibly younger.
RESULTS
Instantly, the skin becomes smoother, expression lines appear relaxed. The fresh, glide-on texture of the serum provides a true lifting sensation and an immediate smoothing effect. After 2 months: wrinkles look further smoothed and replumped, features appear relaxed and the face, less marked, looks visibly younger.
USAGE TIPS
Apply morning and evening to the face and neck.

Verdict
I should mention that the consistency of Sisley Sisleÿa l’Intégral Anti-Âge Anti-Wrinkle Concentrated Serum is a true advantage to most skin types as it gives just the right amount of hydration, allowing other skincare products to be layered on top and/or underneath. I wouldn't say that it provides super charged hydration like Sisley Hydra-Global or Sisley Ecological Compound (Emulsion Ecologique), but if you have oily or oily/combination skin, Sisley Sisleÿa l’Intégral Anti-Âge Anti-Wrinkle Concentrated Serum will work better for your skin.

- Sisley Hydra-Global
- Sisley Ecological Compound (Emulsion Ecologique)
Unlike their all-in-one night-time treatment Sisley Supremÿa at Night, Sisley Sisleÿa l’Intégral Anti-Âge Anti-Wrinkle Concentrated Serum is best paired with their Sisleÿa L'Integral moisturiser in the same range to get comparable results including the overall longevity of hydration.
Although Sisley Sisleÿa l’Intégral Anti-Âge Anti-Wrinkle Concentrated Serum isn't categorised as a firming serum, I've noticed that my skin looks and feels firmer and it seems to help greatly with skin turnover too. I had some marks on my cheeks from enjoying pizza too much over my cycle at one point last month, so I had some of those small fresh pimple scars here and there. And surprisingly, it helped healing pretty fast and I don't need to pile on my concealer anymore, which is very nice.
Having said that, it doesn't work like a magic in a bottle in terms of deep wrinkle improvement especially for my smile lines, which I sort of expected as it isn't an actual filler that you get at a dermatologist. Sisley Sisleÿa l’Intégral Anti-Âge Anti-Wrinkle Concentrated Serum still works wonders for other parts though as I've got positive results for my forehead area along with around my mouth and eyes. You are not meant to use it around the eyes, but I just tested it out to see how it would go. I didn't go too close to my actual eyes though, just a small dab here and there.
Sisley Sisleÿa l’Intégral Anti-Âge Anti-Wrinkle Concentrated Serum seems to work well for smoothing skin texture without compensating any hydrating or firming benefits. If you want to add more oomph to your skin in terms of lifting, I suggest you to use NuFACE Trinity Facial Toning Device before the serum application. If you are looking for a safe bet for an anti-wrinkle serum whether you are in your 30s or 40s, I recommend you to try out Sisley Sisleÿa l’Intégral Anti-Âge Anti-Wrinkle Concentrated Serum😉.
