Anti-Aging Experiment: StriVectin-SD

/

StriVectin-SD. I am sure you have seen the commercials, the ads, and possibly even the knock-offs. It is everywhere. The "better than botox" cream.

We could not wait to use Stri-Vectin in our experiment. Here is who gave it a try: Teri - 30 something, Laurie - 40 something, Brandie - 50 something, and Rose - 60 something.

From the StriVectin website, a description of how StriVectin-SD works:

stri.jpg"StriVectin-SD includes a proprietary complex of skin firming agents, elasticizers, and skin hydrators… adding up to the most comprehensive topical formulation shown to effectively confront virtually every aspect of visible stretch mark reduction.
A groundbreaking series of studies has demonstrated, without a doubt, the amazing effectiveness of StriVectin-SD’s® functional isolates. After reviewing and verifying the clinical data, an incredible 93% of subjects saw a signifigant, visible reduction in the appearance of stretch marks. The unequivocal, verified results speak for themselves. But there’s more. Clinical observations further document the ability of StriVectin-SD’s independent isolates to dramatically improve the appearance of: Indented surfaces, Smooth surfaces, Skin firmness, Irregularities in skin discoloration."



Our thoughts while using:

  • The cream is heavy, a little goes a long way
  • The aromatic oils, mostly of peppermint, are very strong. Use caution around the eyes, nose, and lips.
  • No other moisturizer is needed when using this
  • Apply it sparingly twice a day
  • Use it wherever you want results.

My New Years HIGH RÉSOLUTION from Lancôme.

/

Lancôme is helping me make a New Years Resolution with their just out High Resolution Eye with Collaser-48™.

lancom_hr.jpgThis serum's special complex of ingredients such as Vitamin P, HEPES, and Caffeine, has shown to accelerate the production of collagen in just 48 hours! Now that is fast - what I like from a product. Don't we all want almost immediate results?

I hope to put High Resolution Eye with Collaser-48™ to the test in our upcoming anti-aging experiment.

Here is what Lancôme has found through their testing so far:
"Immediately: Eyes feel smoother while puffiness is visibly reduced
3 Weeks: Wrinkles are visibly diminished and the appearance of dark circles is significantly reduced
4 Weeks: Feel firmness returns -100%; Eyes appear brighter – 84%"

High Resolution Eye is available now on their website or at Lancôme counters for $56.00. If you do try it, please let us know your results.
