Microderm MD Review: IS it Worth all the Buzz it’s Been Getting? We’ll Find Out for You …

Microderm MD ReviewThere are lots of new treatments out – what makes Microderm MD different?

Microderm MD is all the buzz lately. It’s basically an exfoliation system that is designed for home use. Some users feel that it’s taken years off their facial appearance.

That sounds promising. But we wanted to check it out ourselves and see if we found similar results.

What exactly is Microderm MD?

There are a variety of microdermabrasion kits that are made your use in the home. But Microderm MD can clear up more skin problems than many of the other brands.

Many microdermabrasion machines are sold with the claims that they will clear up blotches and even out your skin texture. Microderm MD takes that a step further by claiming that it can also help you eliminate age spots, liver spots, acne scars, fine lines, wrinkles and enlarged pores.

That sounds like a lot for one product to handle. How does it work?

Microderm MD achieves its results using a simple at-home process. There are no messes or crystals or lotions. Just a simple process…

Gently wash the skin of your face.

Use the Microderm MD machine for 10 minutes.

Re-wash your face to remove the dead skin cells that have been exfoliated.

Moisturize your face with your preferred lotion or cream.

Be sure to change the filter every time you use it, or it will become clogged.

When using their wand, use it gently and don’t push it against your skin. Just allow the suction to do its thing.

There is also an option to allow the machine to adjust the suction power automatically, depending on what part of the face you’re working on. Watch the screen, and listen for the machine to beep to tell you to move on to another portion of your face.

After you run through the treatment with the machine’s recommendations, switch it to manual and lightly go back over the skin of your face. This helps in clearing up any skin cells that might not have been exfoliated.

Before and After Microderm MD

It sounds too good to be true – is there anything the machine CANNOT do?

Although Microderm MD works well on fine lines and wrinkles, it takes it awhile to work away deeper wrinkles. It will just take more time, since there is more to be done with deeper wrinkles. Using an anti-wrinkle cream may help speed up the process.

What do real users say?

By Seeham

I bought this home microderm product after many years of getting microderms at the spa, I normally go at least once a month and always love the results. I didn’t even know that you could get something like this to use at home, and I was pretty surprised to find it on Amazon for so cheap. I normally spend at least $60 each time I go to the spa for my microderm, and I honestly can’t tell much of a difference between the home treatment with the microderm md and what I was doing at the spa. The product even looks pretty much the same as the one they use at the spa, just a little bit smaller.

As far as the results go, microderms in general really do the job. My group of lady friends and I get them all the time, and I credit that along with some good face products for keeping my skin very youthful for my age. I do not need Botox or any other treatments from the dermatologist because I keep a pretty good regimen with my skin every month. Now I use this product at least twice a week, which is great since before I could only afford one or two microderms a month at the spa. I gave it 5 stars since it really is almost the same treatment that I have spent many thousands of dollars on over the years. Wish I knew about this thing before! Help other customers find the most helpful reviews.

By Melissa Garren “CigarGirl” (PA, USA)

My first choice was Nu Brilliance. After watching it over and over on Shop NBC I decided I had to have one. Thank goodness I read the reviews first. That product has too many flaws to take a chance with. So I started researching other brands which is when I found this one (Microderm MD/Peelife). It had 8 reviews and they were all 5 stars so I decided to try it. I received it today and used it for the first time and I am very, very happy with the results. It was very easy to use. The instructions were very clear. The suction was very good. I emailed customer service on the Trophy Skin website to find out where to get extra tips and filters and I got a very friendly response within 5 minutes. BTW, because this is diamond tip it should never have to be replaced unlike all of the others that use crystal and need constant replacing. And most of all, my skin looks great! I can’t wait to see how it will look after a few treatments. So far so good. I would highly recommend.

Our Evaluation

Nothing works overnight when it comes to clearing up skin problems, but we thought the Microderm MD was effective in treating many skin issues, and it was still gentle. It did not cause any skin irritation, nor did it dry skin out.

Be sure to follow the advice on the website where this product is sold. You should allow about ten days between your treatments, so that you don’t irritate or over-dry your face. It’s also very important to use a good moisturizer as soon as your treatments are done, since your skin will be very accepting of moisture at that time.

The company sells the machine for a 30-day trial at $14.95, although it will cost a lot more if you keep it. You will also pay for shipping and handling, of course. Private sites sell the machine for $300 or so, but they don’t have that 30 day trial period.

How Does Proactiv Dark Spot Corrector Stack Up? Our Unbiased Review!

We’ve researched and reviewed quite a few dark spot correctors and skin lighteners, so we’ve come to the next, which is made by Proactiv.

Why are we hesitant about Proactiv Dark Spot Corrector?

Proactiv Dark Spot Corrector ReviewBefore we used the product, we read the ingredients, of course. And the active ingredient in Proactiv is hydroquinone. You may have heard of this ingredient if you have read our other reviews. It is possible that hydroquinone causes cancer, and the FDA has blacklisted it for that reason.

Proactiv only uses a 2% concentration in its dark spot corrector, and that’s lower than the usual 4% of many prescription products. Despite that, we just don’t think it’s worth the risk to use this ingredient on your skin, especially when there are natural ingredients that do almost as well at lightening skin.

What is Proactiv Dark Spot Corrector Designed to Do?

Since they have a lot of experience in skin care, it was natural for Proactiv to branch out and market a skin lightener. The product was created to treat darker spots that may be left on the skin by acne scars, and other possible causes.

If you buy the Proactiv three-step acne kit, you can get the dark spot corrector free, or you can purchase the skin lightener separately at retailers including Amazon.com.

What Other Types of Ingredients Are in Proactiv Dark Spot Corrector?

This Proactiv product includes not only hydroquinone, but also glycolic acid and retinyl palmitate. It’s not paraben-free, since it has proplylparaben and methylparaben included, and they also add fragrance to the mixture.

What Do We Like?

We like the fact that you can get this product free to try, even though you have to enroll in the Proactiv auto-shipment program to get it free.

Proactiv Dark Spot Corrector Bottles

What Don’t We Like?

Hydroquinone is usually effective at fading acne scars, melasma and liver spots. But there are tests confirming the danger of using the product, and the benefits simply don’t outweigh the risks.

Besides hydroquinone, there are no other skin lightening ingredients in this product.

In addition, it’s pricey, for a product that only has one useful ingredient, and one that is potentially dangerous to your health, as well.

We also discovered that the Proactiv Dark Spot Corrector isn’t strong enough to help in fading many age spots. We don’t know why they included hydroquinone at all, if they only use a 2% concentration that simply isn’t that effective in clearing up dark spots.

What About Comparisons Between Proactiv Dark Spot Corrector and Other Similar Products?

This product simply doesn’t compete with products like Xtreme Brite and Meladerm Cream. They have safer ingredients, and they use more than one ingredient to lighten dark spots.

What Do Proactiv Customers Think?

I am adult female that has struggled for years with ongoing acne breakouts. I tried this product primarily because my prescription cream for bleaching dark spots was no longer available through my insurance plans. Initially, I saw results that seem to indicate that this would work just as well as my prescription medicine. Today, I’m not so sure. I’ll continue using it since I purchase 3 tubes of it. After I’ve exhausted my supply, I will consider biting the bullet and pay the cost of my prescription medicine.
- By Divacheryl at Amazon.com

I must say, I have been a fan of the old “skin lightening lotion” from ProActiv before they changed it and made it the new and improved “Dark Spot Correcter”. I had been using the old version off and on for over a period of years and I always got excellent quick results when I used it even when I would only apply it for one application as suppose to the 2 they always recommended. I notice when I had a bit of the older left my skin spots were clearing fine, but as soon as I starting using the new version nothing. I feel like my face is actually getting worse as far as complexion. I’m very disappointed by this and I feel like it’s a completely different product. I will certainly be checking out the complaint and suggestion line with ProActiv. I feel like they keep the same expensive price but made a cheaply made product. I may have to try something else at one point PA was the only lightener that worked on my skin.
- By Jane Wonderfalls at Amazon.com

Our Evaluation

You may see improvement with Proactiv if you have minor hyperpigmentation, but you can find products that will work better, with no dangerous ingredients. Try safer formulas first before you risk your health for these moderate results.

We Review Meladerm Cream – Is This Lesser-known Skin-lightening Cream a Diamond in the Rough?

Meladerm Cream ReviewThere are so many skin lighteners available today that some good products are not getting the publicity that perhaps they should. We thought that might be the case with Meladerm cream. It performs in roughly the same way as some of the names you hear more often, and it works especially well on aging skin, including age spots.

We should note here that Meladerm was not created to whiten your skin. It was designed to help in reducing age spots, scars and melasma.

We decided to review Meladerm cream ourselves, in case you might want to know more about it before you try it – and how well it ranks in our list of the best skin lightening creams? Keep on reading, and you will find your answer =)

What’s in Meladerm cream?

Most people using skin lighteners probably don’t even know the active ingredients in Meladerm, let alone the ways in which they work.

There are 17 ingredients found in Meladerm, and some of them will be familiar, since other product names use them, as well. But Meladerm still seems to work a bit differently than some of those other products.

The main ingredient in Meladerm would be Alpha Arbutin. This works in effectively blocking the production of melanin in the skin, which gives it color. Alpha Arbutin is among the most effective skin lighteners on the market today.

Meladerm cream also uses Tego Cosmo C, which seems to work more naturally to reduce melasma signs. The fact that it’s very natural makes it more comfortable when you use it.

Meladerm Cream Before After

Gigawhite is the next most effective ingredient found in Meladerm. It’s derived from plants found mainly in the Swiss Alps. Its most worthwhile ability is that it gives you basically the same type of results as hydroquinone, which was revoked by the FDA because it may cause cancer. Since Gigawhite is natural, it’s much safer than many other ingredients.

So what did we find when we compared Meladerm to other products?

We found that Meladerm is indeed competitive with other reviewed products, including Proactiv Dark Spot Corrector and Xtreme Bright Gel. As far as cost, Meladerm is less expensive than many other products that perform in much the same way.

DermaPure Skin Lightener is also better known than is Meladerm. But where Meladerm uses many natural ingredients, many of the ingredients in DermaPure are chemicals. Even so, they are not any more effective than the natural mixture of Meladerm.

Meladerm was released after the well-known skin lightener Revitol, and Meladerm used the experience of Revitol users to create a product that uses additional ingredients to effectively lighten skin.

How do you purchase Meladerm?

You can find private sellers for this cream, but if you buy from them, be sure that they offer the same 30-day Money Back Guarantee that the company gives when you buy it directly from them. If you don’t see satisfactory results, you can get your money back from the company.

Here are some reviews by actual users of Meladerm Cream

“Civant products are wonderful. I have been using Meladerm for melasma on my neck and I’am seeing results If you use it faithfully and over time you should see results. My melasma is fading and getting smaller. I have used it for a few months now. it is working great for me. Thanks Civant for such wonderful products. I use the cleanser the green cloth and the skin toner and the meladerm. They are all working great for me.”
- Carol, Amazon.com

“I have literally tried just about every product on the market. I have probably spent well over $10k on skincare products alone. I have suffered with acne pretty much my entire life. As a result, i have been blessed with lots of hyperpigmentation and crater like scars on my face (not to mention I was still dealing with weekly acne breakouts). I had already begun savings for the Fraxel laser procedure (approx $4k), but was told by my plastic surgeon that I would first need to get my acne under control before he would even touch my skin with a laser. I began searching for acne and hyperpigmentation solutions to “tide me over” until I could get my Fraxel done. I’m so glad I did. This stuff is life changing. I can honestly say that at the rate my skin is healing and changing, I don’t think im going to need Fraxel anymore. Deep craters have been softened DRAMATICALLY. To the point I can hardly see them anymore (I wont say they’re completely gone, but darn close!) Granted, ive only been using this stuff for a little over a month or so and sometimes intermittently and the results are just incredible. Mind you, I use exceptional products in conjuction to this, not to mention exfoliate every day with the Clairsonic spinbrush – I dont know how well anything would work if you aren’t exfoliating properly. In a nutshell, my skin looks the best its ever looked and couldn’t be more pleased with the results!!”
- Ariel, Amazon.com

What’s Our Evaluation

We liked the fact that Meladerm cream has a lot of natural ingredients that perform favorably when compared to other brands that use more chemical mixtures. Any time you can get a natural product, it’s worth a try, especially since you get your money back if it doesn’t work.

Homemade Acne Treatments: Problem Acne !

How do most people treat acne?

Homemade Acne TreatmentsAs common a problem as acne is, especially for teens, there simply isn’t a quick fix for it, as much as that would be appreciated. There are many brand name products that battle acne, but none of them will normally show a complete win over the stubborn blemishes.

Because of this, and due to the high prices of some topical remedies, homemade treatments are also used by many people to fight problem acne. The best plan is to prevent blemishes, but if you already have them, you’ll want to get rid of them at the same time you’re fighting new ones. The treatment you select will depend on your skin type, age and other user-specifics.

It’s ironic that acne always appears when you want to look your best. Since some of the products made to fight acne are very hard on your skin, you may also opt to try homemade treatments, which are usually gentler.

How can you use home treatments for acne?

Tea tree oil is an ingredient used in fighting acne in a natural way. It is best used when you first see the appearance of a spot. Using tea tree oil is beneficial in fighting infection and it will dramatically speed up your healing.

Apple vinegar and lemon juice are also ingredients that are quite natural, and not as harsh to your skin as over the counter remedies can be. Apply one or the other with a cotton pad, directly on a blemish or a spot that is becoming a blemish. These ingredients contain acid, which is helpful in flushing out your pores, allowing healthier skin to show.

Another remedy that people make at home to help in clearing up acne is a combination of honey and nutmeg. After you mix one teaspoon of each ingredient together, you will apply this gentle mixture right on the top of the zit you’re trying to banish. Leave it on the site for about 20 minutes, and then rinse your face with clear, warm water.  Honey is helpful in fighting acne because it has antiseptic properties that will work at fighting off the bacteria that causes some forms of acne.

Aloe Vera is a gentle and natural ingredient to use in your homemade treatments for problem acne. It can be purchased in gel form, applied right on the pimple, and then left on the skin for 10 or 15 minutes to help in clearing up pimples.

Cleansing your skin in a healthy way …

Many people who suffer with acne feel that cleansing their skin constantly will improve the causes of their acne. But scrubbing too harshly can actually cause your body to produce even more sebum, which is its natural oil. This will make acne worse, not better. Don’t over-dry your skin for the same reason. Stimulating your sebaceous glands to produce even more oil will only make acne more of a problem for you.

To cleanse skin at home, use Epsom salts added to hot water. Allow this mixture to cool a bit, and then use a cotton pad to apply it onto acne problem areas on your face. It’s a homemade way to keep your skin clear of acne without drying it out.

Natural Under Eye Treatments

What natural ingredients help under eye circles?

natural-under-eye-treatmentsThere are many products on the market that promise to get rid of those dark circles you have under your eyes. But you can use ingredients found in your own home to make natural creams that will show you a big difference, too.

Your dark circles could have been brought about not only by aging but also by heredity. As the pad of fat that rests beneath the eye thins when you age, it may give the area under your eyes a sunken look. Slow blood flow accentuates that look. Vitamin K has shown itself to be helpful in diminishing these circles’ appearance.

A Cosmetic and Toiletries study had two groups applying under-eye creams. The group using a topical under-eye cream along with a sunscreen did not see nearly the results in lightening of the circles as did a second group that used a cream for the area under the eye that contained retinol and vitamin K. This group showed much more lightening.

You’ve probably seen photos of women with cucumber slices on their eyes, but did you know that raw potatoes will also help dark under-eye circles? Use either one for about 15 to 20 minutes and then wash your face using warm water and gently apply your favorite cream.

You can also grate the cucumber instead of slicing it, and squeeze out the juice before refrigerating it. Mix this cucumber-rich juice with a lanolin cream and pure lemon juice and apply to the under-eye area for ten to 15 minutes. Alternately, you can use simple lemon juice on the dark areas.

Are other natural ingredients also effective against circles under the eyes?

Other home remedies that treat dark circles include crushed mint or almond oil applied under the eyes. You may also make a paste of pineapple juice and turmeric powder and apply to the dark circles.

Niacinamide, which is derived from Niacin, is sometimes used to lighten skin, especially in areas of hyperpigmentation. Applying a moisturizer with a five percent concentration of niacinamide has been shown in a study to successfully decrease the hyperpigmentation and increase the lightness of the skin. Using it topically will also allow you to make use of its properties as an anti-inflammatory agent, which works well for dark circles and puffy eyes.

Almonds in a cream base are an excellent “food” for skin, and they help to reduce the under eye circles. If you use such a cream, be sure to remove it after about ten minutes. You shouldn’t leave any creams on the skin around your eyes for longer than 15 to 20 minutes.

Making a paste from tomato juice and mint leaves can ease some of the dark look of circles under the eyes. Iron and vitamin C are also helpful. Yellow or red peppers are helpful to use under the eyes. or you may use a cream that contains vitamin C and vitamin E to reduce the dark circles.

Stopping some habits will help improve the look of dark circles under your eyes, too. If you stop eating greasy foods, drinking alcohol and smoking, this will increase the overall health of your skin and body.

We Review Trilastin SR – And We Won’t Stretch The Truth

Trilastin SR ReviewIf you’re like lots of people out there, you probably would rejoice in finding a solution for the stretch marks that affect so many of us. You’re certainly not alone if you have stretch marks. Millions of women and men would like to cover up these unsightly marks, but you’ll need to find a product that will do it well.

 

In the last several months, we’ve seen many products coming out, one after another, and they all promise to give you stretch mark relief, but most of them just don’t deliver.

It may be hard to find the solution that will work best for you, and when we began noticing the buzz about a cream for stretch marks called Trilastin SR, we decided to research it for you, to find out if it really is what it claims to be. We made some interesting finds…

Just what IS Trilastin SR?

Lots of people have lost and gained weight, and many women have had children. These people may have something in common with you – stretch marks. If you happen to have stretch marks, you probably have tried many products to get rid of them.

Before we delve into the causes of stretch marks and the best way to get rid of them, we decided to shoot a video of our experiences in checking out Trilastin SR for six weeks. If you want to see our experience and check out the results, click HERE.

Unsightly stretch marks become more visible when your elastin fibers, usually responsible for binding your skin, become stressed and develop small tears. Those appear on your body as stretch marks.

We read through many Trilastin SR reviews, and found out that skin has an amazing, natural ability to grow, as we do. But it does have limitations. Stretch marks are often seen after bodybuilding, gaining weight, or being pregnant.

Our review team discovered that Trilastin SR’s formula works efficiently and quickly to reduce stretch marks’ appearance on the skin, and the results are seen as fast as two weeks after the first use.

Trilastin SR cream is also helpful in providing your skin with plenty of elasticity, to avoid dermal tearing. It accomplishes this by giving your skin all essential elements to produce elastin and collagen. These are the most important aspects of properly binding skin.

Will Trilastin SR work for you? Does it really work that well?

We can’t guarantee that you’ll be 100% satisfied since everyone’s skin is unique, but we encourage you to read our review and others available online.

Our research team did find that this powerful, hypoallergenic, advanced formula helped in the stimulation of cell regeneration, to a degree. It leaves most users with visible and positive changes in the areas of stretch marks. In addition, it works at thickening the epidermal layer. This makes the skin surface even smoother, and helps in the fading and repair of existing marks, to minimize the stretch marks you see. We were encouraged also by the fact that Trilastin SR has proven effective for most all users, regardless of age, skin color, sex or length of time they had previously had stretch marks.

What CAN’T this product do?

This cream is effective for many types of dermal stretch marks, but it can’t effectively treat deep scars from botched surgeries, injuries or medical procedures. If you need treatment for these types of scars, which are more severe, speak with your dermatologist and determine what the best course of action will be. Speak to her before you use Trilastin SR, too, until you have her studied opinion.

What do real users of the product say?

Before After Trilastin SR

While we found Trilastin SR to work effectively against stretch marks, it’s good to hear what your everyday, average consumers experienced with the product, as well.

“I usually don’t do this, but I’m really really impressed with this product. I don’t have endless gripes about my physical appearance, but I was starting to get really down and obsessive about my old and new stretch marks. I received this as a Christmas gift (per my request) and can honestly say, this many months later, that its made a definite noticeable dent in my stretch marks. I think the people who have given negative reviews are looking for total disappearance. Please consider that there is NO product currently out there at this time that can do that, so any product that actually makes a serious difference in texture and color is a true success, which this product does. there is no cure for stretch marks, but trilastin is a proven treatment in my opinion.”
- Melissa McCormick, March 5, 2010, Amazon.com

This product is good but I thought it would have been a little better. My stretch marks are going away but still very much visible after a month of use. My stretch marks are over five years old. But hopefully I will see more results in the near future.”
- The Diva, January 10, 2009, Amazon.com

What’s our verdict?

There isn’t such a thing as a miracle product to remove all stretch marks and other scarring of the skin, but we feel that Trilastin SR will help in minimizing stretch marks’ appearance anywhere on your body.

Before you order Trilastin SR, check the prices online to get the best deal. Some customers have been frustrated that it isn’t available in stores, but you can find great deals online. We found the best prices not at eBay, Amazon or Walmart, but actually at the official site, where they have prices that are quite competitive, along with a 60-day risk free money back guarantee.

Honest LifeCell Review – How does it stack up against competing products?

Lifecell ReviewSo many skin products today offer you glowing, radiant and young looking skin. But no one has “perfect” skin. Most people need a product that helps them get to a point where they’re happy with the way their skin looks.

For our LifeCell review, we expected to find another product with more promises made and few kept, like so many of the rest. But we did see positive reviews, so we were hopeful.

How does LifeCell work?

LifeCell cream is designed to reduce the appearance of wrinkles in a unique way. We didn’t believe that you would actually see results in just 17 seconds, but it did work quickly.

The ingredients found in LifeCell actually reflect molecules of light away from skin’s cracks, which you normally see as wrinkles. In reality, you don’t see wrinkles – you see shadows. Lifecell cream works to reflect the shadow, so you don’t see wrinkles as easily.

This product also is helpful in treating damaged skin cells, which are one of the main causes of wrinkles. It protects your skin from further signs of aging and it improves your skin’s firmness and elasticity while it gets rid of lines and wrinkles.

LifeCell contains antioxidants, anti-irritants and water-binding agents. Independent and published studies have agreed that these ingredients reduce the signs of aging in your skin.

What are the ingredients of LifeCell?

LifeCell cream contains active ingredients including:

* Ubiquinone – an antioxidant that boosts collagen and elastin production

* Ascorbyl Palmitate with Vitamin C – helps to promote collagen synthesis and lessens   hyperpigmentation effects

* Acetyl Hexapeptide 3 – works like Botox, with no injections

* Dithiolane 3 – Pentanic Acid – an effective anti-inflammatory and antioxidant

* Deanol – helps your body produce acetylcholine, and tones and firms up skin

Are there things that LifeCell cannot do?

This product works well in anti-aging, but the $189 price tag for just two months places it out of many people’s reach. But you do get a 30 day risk free trial, after which you’ll know if the results are worth the price tag.

Once your first 30 days is up, if you want to continue to use the product, you can become a VIP member and get the same two months’ of cream for $149.

What are some LifeCell review comments?

“I have honestly used just about every cream out there – you name it, I’ve tried it. Even prescription Renova, Retina, Jan Marini, La Mer, Hydroxatone, etc. So so many. have very reactive skin and liked this had such a good guarantee. Pricey, but when you add up all the other products you use -serums, night creams, eye creams, etc., and add into one, its really not that bad. I was amazed at the results. The crows feet that had become a big issue for me, became less apparent to a point they hadn’t been since my young twenties. I’m 30. My skin hasn’t been this smooth and youthful in years. I don’t even have to wear makeup, just sunscreen. I know everyone’s skin is different, but something about this product is doing something right. I would recommend and I am sticking with it.”

- Shamari, Shawnee, OK

“It’s worth it for me. This is the absolutely only anti-aging cream that doesn’t make me break out. It actually has helped heal the acne I had gotten from other products. I use it with my derma roller, and my skin is smooth, firm, and even toned. My skin also doesn’t dry out in the winter, like it used to, except maybe around the eyes.”

- Sarah Brunswick – Oklahoma City

Our final LifeCell review thoughts:

There aren’t any products out there that work miracles, but LifeCell is a quality product that basically delivers on its promises. The expense is high, so you’ll have to be the judge of whether the cost is worth it to you.
