Agnes b. Review

 Updated On:

Overview

Agnes b. is a high end fashion company, providing styles for men and women in their boutiques across the globe. At one time, the company was also offering a cosmetic line for sale. However, the agnes b. cosmetic line is no longer available for sale in the United States and we were also unable to find the products for purchase in other areas of the world. We did find the cosmetics on some online auction houses however, so we will review the line for those who are looking to this source for their skin care needs.

The products that we were able to find in the agnes b. included foundations, powder compacts, blushes, lipsticks, eyeliners and eye shadow. We do not believe that this company ever offered a skin care line for sale, and certainly never provided any products designed specifically for anti-aging needs. In fact, the line stopped selling in many parts of the world prior to the large boom in the anti-aging industry that has recently occurred. Therefore, we believe that consumers looking for anti-aging skin care will be better off looking to other companies for their needs.

Product Details

Because these products appear to be restricted to online auction houses and resale websites, we were unable to find ingredient lists for any of these products. Even though the agnes b. items available for sale may be offered at a discounted price, we believe consumers put themselves at a serious disadvantage by purchasing skin care and cosmetics without the benefit of this information. Without a full formula listing for a product, it is impossible to ascertain whether the item will be both safe and effective for individual use.

When it comes to anti-aging skin care, we would urge consumers to look for products containing the patented ingredients argireline and matrixyl. Argireline has been proven in clinical studies to reduce the appearance of wrinkles by up to 30% by relaxing the facial muscles that contribute to fine lines and wrinkles on the skin. Matrixyl is highly effective in stimulating the production of collagen in the skin, which will give the skin a plumper, firmer, younger appearance overall. These patented anti-aging agents will become even more effective when combined with hyaluronic acid, a skin hydrator that will help the skin retain moisture and smooth the skin's surface.

The Good

  • Agnes b. is a well known company with a reputation for quality.
  • Cosmetics can still be purchased through online auction houses.

The Bad

  • The agnes b. cosmetic line does not appear to include skin care.
  • Because the products are no longer offered by the company, supplies are limited.
  • There are no agnes b. products designed to address anti-aging needs.
  • There are no customer testimonials or money back guarantees on the products.

The Bottom Line

While the agnes b. cosmetic line might have been a popular choice at one time, it does not appear to be readily available any longer. In addition, this line never provided skin care options, and more specifically, anti-aging products. Consumers will be better off looking to other companies and skin care lines for their anti-aging needs.

Our Top Pick For 2009:  Dermapril-SP

Dermapril-SP was rated the best-in-class performer, with a cutting-edge formula and results visible immediately after use. Matrixyl 3000™, the primary active ingredient in Dermapril-SP, is backed by clinical research that showed reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles of as much as 33% after two months of use. Additionally, the formula contains the European miracle ingredient Argatensyl™, which creates an immediate tightening effect on applied areas, making results visible within minutes of use.

The treatment helps the skin regain a more youthful biochemical makeup by supporting the natural production of three building blocks – Collagen, Fibronectin and Hyaluronic Acid. The result is a rapid rejuvenation, diminishing the appearance of wrinkles and other cosmetic signs of age caused by sun exposure, smoking, stress, and other common factors.

In clinical trials, Matrixyl 3000™ decreased the appearance of wrinkles by as much as 33% over a six week period. With the immediate tightening benefits of Argatensyl™, this formula has a completely unique combination of short-term cosmetic results as well as sustained, cumulative benefits to the skin. Common reported results include smoothing and firming; softer skin; diminished appearance of fine lines and wrinkles; and healthier looking, glowing skin. Based on the high cost and quality of the ingredients, Dermapril-SP is reasonably priced. Customer satisfaction seems high and Dermapril-SP offers a risk-free trial, so users can evaluate the product prior to paying the full retail price.
