Elite Serum Review

Elite Serum ReviewSkinPro has finally released their much anticipated new version of Elite Serum!

This is the number one product I can reccomend right now for ultimate DNA and skin rejuvenation.  This is the best anti wrinkle product 0f 2012, hands down.

If you are a man or woman, 18 years of age or older, looking to protect your skin from the visibile signs of aging, Elite Serum is one product you can’t afford to ignore.  A pioneer in using anti wrinkle powerhouse ingredient Argireline, this among the hottest products on the anti aging market today.

Dr. Oz Argireline Cream

Dr. Oz praised Argireline on 2/3/12's show!

Update: 2/3: I was watching Dr. Oz today and he had this to say about Argireline:

“Crows feet: Argireline- this product works like botox but it’s a cream and there are no injections. Look for a 5%-10% concentration and apply 2 Xs per day”

Before Dr. Oz could stop talking, I was screaming to my sister that I use a product with these these components:  Elite Serum.

The flagship product from SkinPro has been completely overhauled and redesigned by their team. I went back and forth with their company spokesperson via email and was able to uncover a lot of the details of this new eye serum.   The company  credits the hard work of their dedicated scientists and research chemists, particularly cosmetic pharmacist Irwin Grams who painstakingly developed this potent formula.

I’m proud to present my updated Elite Serum Review.

This anti wrinkle & skin rejuvenation product is like an injection – without the pain!  There is nothing on the anti aging product market like this.

Most notably, I noticed that the new Elite Serum contains no xanthum gum or other filler bonding ingredients. Their catch phrase is ‘This is not your mother’s department store eye serum.’. Nothing is closer to the truth than that. What I have seen from early testing is that the base is composed entirely from red and green seaweed extract and pure hyaluronic acid. For anybody who knows anything about the cosmetic industry, specifically high-end cosmeceuticals, seaweed extract is what is used to bond all the most expensive serums. I certainly felt the difference from the moment I dispensed and applied the Elite Serum. Simply put, it was silky smooth from the get go and nurtured my skin from the first application.

This is the anti aging breakthrough product of the year!

Best Eye SerumOne of the most fascinating aspects of the Elite Serum is the custom designed applicator syringe. SkinPro mentioned that they engineered this exclusively for use with the new Elite Serum. No more guesswork is involved when dispensing the serum.  One of the main complaints with even the best wrinkle creams is that when sold in a jar, the cream can become contaminated by any residue or dirt the hands come in contact with.  Elite Serum was previously sold in an airless pump, and although there are very few complaints, the airless pump seemed to make up 99% of them.  Faulty airless pumps are a common compliant on the numerous skin care product review websites I read and contribute to.

Lets talk about peptides. The new Elite Serum contains the highest concentration of peptides on the market, bar none. Nothing is even close. I was amazed with how potent this combination really is. Normally, formulas of this strength require a doctor’s visit and prescription of some sort. Finally I feel there is a real alternative to botox available, and it’s called Elite Serum.  It is loaded with Argireline and it’s cousin SNAP-8, Haloxyl, Eyeliss, Syn-Coll and just for good measure a hearty helping of Matrixyl-3000, which if you read my blog you know I’ve covered in many previous reviews.  Matrixyl 3000, in my opinion, MUST be in any anti wrinkle cream or serum if you are looking to reduce the appearance of eye wrinkles and crow’s feet.

Further notes about Elite Serum…

  • For use by anyone 18 or older seeking better overall skin
  • Safe for use by pregnant women
  • Non-irritant – for all skin types

The tagline:  “Defend.  Protect.  Rejuvenate.”  – is spot on.  This is one of the best anti wrinkle & skin rejuvenation products you can buy, hands down.

LifeCell all-in-one anti-aging treatment seems on pace to quickly be becoming the best one-step solution to better skin, less wrinkles, and a more youthful appearance.  Is it the best anti wrinkle cream?  Many reviews I read at other websites seem to think so.  Let’s look at it in great detail…..

“Hollywood Celebs love LifeCell”

Here are some things that caught my attention…..worth noting in this LifeCell review:

- It is has been rated the best wrinkle cream on numerous independent review sites online.

With all the LifeCell reviews (which are extremely positive) and the news coverage, the celebrities, etc – it made me wonder – What’s all the fuss about?

Typically, if something sounds too good to be true – then it probably is not true. But LifeCell is a breath of fresh air and a true exception.  If you are looking for ONE SINGLE anti wrinkle product to apply on a daily basis, keep reading….because for so many people to say that this is the best anti wrinkle cream, there has to be something working for it.  Continue to the next page to read my review and find out if LifeCell is the anti aging cream for you.

Smoking Cigarettes Causes Wrinkles

Smoking Cigarettes causes skin wrinkles.  There are many reasons why smoking cigarettes causes skin wrinkles, and I’ll do my best to educate everyone with general facts about cigarette smoking and how it pertains to skin care.

I personally quit smoking at age 23, when I started learning about proper skin care.  The thought of putting another cigarette in my mouth hasn’t crossed my mind since the day I viewed gory photos of people’s gums and teeth, followed by photographs of facial wrinkles on people who had smoked cigarettes for the majority of their adult (and sometimes even teenage) lives.

I consulted with the Mayo Clinic’s website on this update just to ensure my facts were straight after all these years.  Doctor Lowell Dale, MD, has a question and answer session currently live on the Mayo Clinic website and it’s among the best resources I’ve seen on the topic.

According to Dale, “Smoking can speed up the aging process of your skin.”

Smoking and wrinkles

Which Twin Smokes?

The aging process includes wrinkles and fine lines. After affects of cigarette smoking may appear within 10 years of smoking, and as Dale adds

“the more skin wrinkling you’re likely to have — even though the early skin damage from smoking may be hard for you to see.”

Smoking cigarettes also contributes to wrinkles on other areas of the skin, such as the skin on the backside of the arms.  As mentioned in previous wrinkle education updates, any repeated movement of the skin will cause wrinkles.  (Squinting is the most common.)

Nicotine contained in cigarettes narrows the blood levels in the outermost layers of the skin, which in turn impairs the blood flow.  When this happens, the skin doesn’t receive the necessary oxygen to maintain it’s healthy shine and supple state. Nutrients, such as vitamin C, are also lost in this process.

The over 4,000 chemicals and toxins are even more dangerous for your skin.  They deplete collagen and elastin, the fibers that keep your skin strong.  When you lose collagen and elastin, that’s when the skin wrinkles really start to show.

Of course, repeated facial expressions done when smoking cigarettes, such as pursing the lips, squinting, and dragging on the actual tobacco cigarette – all adds up to one more reason why cigarette smoking is a bad habit and terrible for people looking to maintain healthy skin.

This photograph here accurately shows someone who has smoked a few too many heaters!

Of course, for those of you who are looking for an alternative, (because you can’t quit smoking at all costs) electronic cigarettes are an option.  Electronic cigarettes do not contain the vast majority of the 4,000 + chemicals in tobacco cigarettes, PLUS, you can smoke electronic cigarettes without nicotine.  Most electronic cigarettes do contain nicotine, so be sure to find one with a zero mg cartridge.  You may find yourself starting out with nicotine with the goal of waning down to the zero mg cartridges.  I know several people who have used Bull Smoke Electronic Cigarettes and had a lot of success with them.

So, if you have to smoke in some capacity, keep that in mind.
