American Beauty claims that the cream can help improve the texture and protect the skin from harsh environmental influences like wind, and cold weather that can contribute to the look of aged skin. The purported benefits of this anti-aging cream are many. This American Beauty product is apparently suitable for all types of skin, and in just 4 weeks it is claimed to be able to help repair skin imperfections in more than 50% of individuals. The cream is also non-acnegenic. The American Beauty Youthful Anti Aging cream has been tested for allergies and is safe for use around the eyes.

The Bottom Line

The American Beauty Youthful Anti Aging cream appears to be a decent product and reasonably priced. It does contain several firming agents, which may be responsible for the youthful appearance of the skin. Further, the presence of numerous antioxidants in the product can help decrease the effects of the environment on the skin. How and what ingredients are responsible for the anti-aging effects is not explained. Further, besides Ashley Judd, it is important for American Beauty to post some pictures of consumers who have benefited from this cream. Ashley Judd may simply be a spokesperson for American Beauty and she may have been paid money- so her views or appearance is always biased. American Beauty Cosmetics is certainly a well-established line, but it’s difficult to say if they’ve put enough effort into their anti-aging offering. Many times, when a big-name cosmetics brand creates an anti-aging product, it’s more of a way to cash in on brand recognition than a really cutting-edge wrinkle treatment. In any case, for $27, the cream isn’t too big of a risk. If it does not work, you can always blame Ashley Judd.

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.
