InvisiCrepe Body Balm Review: A Detailed Look

By Lydia Noyes

Updated on: Jun 15, 2020

InvisiCrepe Body Balm is a skin hydrating product from City Beauty that works to eliminate your crepey skin. City Beauty claims that this product will make long-term repairs to your skin barrier and help strengthen the skin’s cellular protein matrix that will result in smoother, healthier skin.

City Beauty is a luxury beauty brand based out of LA that sells a range of cosmetic products, most of which are designed to counter the effects of aging.

Its products are claimed to go beyond benefiting the skin’s surface to repairing the foundational layers to help you maintain results long-term.

Our detailed analysis will help you decide if this product is right for you.

Benefits

InvisiCrepe acts as a moisturizer and skin supporter. The body balm’s primary goal is to boost your skin’s collagen production to build up its support system so you get a smoother, plumper look and eliminate crepey skin.

“Crepey” skin is the term used for skin that is dry, thin, and sagging. It tends to occur first in places where the skin is naturally more delicate, including the neck, hands, chest, and upper arms. Short of surgical treatments, the best option for eliminating crepey skin is to keep it hydrated.

While traditional body lotions will only temporarily moisturize your skin, City Beauty claims that InvisiCrepe will both hydrate your skin and support its natural barrier so that you do more than merely moisten the surface.

This balm is considered safe for all skin types and should work better the longer that you use it.

To use, apply about a quarter-sized amount of InvisiCrepe onto your clean, dry skin at the area of concern. Massage the balm in with circular, upward motions until it is fully absorbed. You can use it daily.

Key Ingredients

City Beauty claims that InvisiCrepe targets the symptoms of crepey skin in three main ways: hydration, cell regeneration, and a protein support network. Does this align with the ingredients?

AcquaCell and DL Lipids are classified as hydration boosters that keep your skin moisturized while repairing the skin barrier. They work to fix flaws in the dermal matrix, which is the structure that supports structural proteins like collagen and elastin.

The company claims that DL lipid molecules can each carry up to 15 times its weight in water, which adds an instant boost of hydration to your skin.

Lactococcus ferment lysate and oat bran extract work together to increase the balm’s thickness and activate skin cell regeneration. They work with niacinamide and ribose, two protein network synthesizers, that enable the potential for collagen and elastin to lift and tighten the skin for a smoother appearance.

According to a 2003 study, topical niacinamide can boost your skin’s collagen production by up to 54%. Likewise, ribose is a carbohydrate that increases the energy levels of your fibroblasts by almost 19%, which are the cells that produce collagen.

The company claims that InvisiCrepe is formulated without potentially dangerous ingredients like parabens, sulfates, phthalates, mineral oil, and more. This purportedly makes it suitable even for more sensitive skin, though City Beauty suggests you do a patch test the first time you use it to be safe.

One safe ingredient exception is phenoxyethanol, a common cosmetics preservative that bothers people with sensitive skin and may lead to eczema and severe allergic reactions.

City Beauty and Beverly Hills MD are offering relatively similar products for crepey skin reduction. Both contain similar ingredients, though you’ll pay approximately half as much for InvisiCrepe.

Customer reviews indicate that the majority of users have been happy with their purchases, so you might find either one works for improving your skin.

The Bottom Line

This product earns excellent reviews here and has an ingredients list that looks promising, with little risk of adverse side effects. However, it’s important to stay realistic about what a product like this can accomplish.

Unfortunately, even the world’s best balm can’t make your skin look two decades younger on its own. Using this product will make your skin healthier, which is a sign of youthfulness, but it’s unrealistic to expect it to vanish your wrinkles altogether.

The best way to avoid crepey skin is to prevent it in the first place. We recommend following a healthy lifestyle by eating nutrient-rich foods, getting regular exercise, and slathering on sunscreen whenever you go outside.

Speedy delivery

By Erin L., New Zealand, Verified Reviewer

I have just ordered and my InvisiCrepe and was impressed with the speed it arrived, just 14 days to get to New Zealand. Early days but excited and hopeful about the results. It is a bigger bottle than I thought, so was pleased about that. I like that it doesn't have a scent so it is not competing with my perfume.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Worked immediately

By Gay J., Texas, Verified Reviewer

I was amazed that the improvement happened with the first application. I'm not always great at daily use, but even when I miss a day I can still see it working. I have very sensitive skin and have no issues with any of your products.

Crepe

By Kathleen L., Minneapolis, MN, Verified Reviewer

I have only used for a week so far but totally impressed so far. I feel more hydrated. My skin is baby soft. I’m anxious to see what difference I will see in 30 days. The smell is amazing. I feel so soft after but not greasy. I can get dressed right after putting it on! I took a before picture of my neck, will post after a couple more weeks! Stay tuned.

"So far, so good!"

By Cathy R., Vineyard, UT, Verified Reviewer

Hi!

I have seen a few anti crepe products, but since I have used your City Lips products for a year and a half, I decided to give your balm a try.

I have only been using it for a short time, but I can see results in my chest area. I am excited to give it a little more time. Thank you for having such great products!

City Beauty InvisiCrepe Body Balm

By Sheryl K., Erie, PA, Verified Reviewer

I have been using this product for two weeks. I am seeing results, improving the creepiness on my neck. I have been applying it on my arms and even face. I like this product and wish I could buy two more for the amazing price I bought my first shipment! I also love the blog and have ordered online Uncle Lee’s Organic white tea. I am trying to do what I can to restore my collagen and elasticity of my skin. I also take three capsules a day of Dr. Axe’s Multi Collagen.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Seemingly good product

By Sheila D., Brenham, TX, Verified Reviewer

Just started using it and it seems to be helping the wrinkling area on my upper chest and the tops of my hands. Will continue to use it on my legs and I’m using it on my arms around the elbows. I just haven’t noticed how well it’s working there yet, and on my upper arms underneath.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Straight to the point!

By Daisy P., California, Verified Reviewer

To be completely honest I made a bundle purchase to test it on myself before having my mother and aunt try it. I’m pleased to inform you that I will be sending them one each to try. As it does feel good on my face, it even makes it easier to apply my foundation with its rich hydration! Thanks again, I’m tempted to try your lip kit next.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Yes, it really works! Love, love, love it!

By Georgianne S., Texas, Verified Reviewer

I've been loving the City Lips for about two years now and reading about some of their other products. I finally decided to try the InvisiCrepe - I've used nearly half of my first jar and I've noticed a definite improvement in the firmness of my skin! Sigh, I think I'm gonna have to break down and try the sculpting cream now...oh boy!

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Amazing

By MaryJane H., Vernal, UT, Verified Reviewer

I love how rich and hydrated I immediately feel when I apply this amazing body balm. I can't wait to share this with my mom in Virginia. She wears long sleeves in the summer just to hide her arms. I can not wait to give her something that will help build her confidence again in how her arms look. Thank you!

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
