Botoceuticals Review

Updated On:

Overview

The Botoceutical range of skin care products is produced by a Swiss company known as Herb Pharma AG Schweiz. There are large choices of anti-aging products within their range. These include products such as the Botoceutical anti wrinkle serum and the Botoceutical anti wrinkles serum for mature skin. There are also a number of anti-aging products for the eyes. Those who sell the Botoceutical anti-wrinkle serum online tell us that it is a revolutionary face serum that will rid you of lines and wrinkles. We are told that three peptides are combined into one in this product. Some of the major active ingredients in the Botoceutical Gold anti-wrinkle serum for mature skin include Hylaluronic Acid and Gold Particles (!)

Product Details

We are told that the Botoceutical anti-wrinkle serum is made up of three peptides combined into one. We know, of course, that peptides have an important role to play in producing collagen and guarding the firmness of the skin. It is rather difficult, however, to compare the Botoceutical anti wrinkle serum to other products on the market that contain peptides when we do not have any details of the exact peptides present in this serum. The Botoceutical anti-wrinkle serum can be purchased online for the price of $26.10. We are told that the Botoceutical anti-wrinkle serum for mature skin is suitable for mature male and female skin over the age of 45 years. The ingredients in this anti-aging product consist of DMAE, Lipoic Acid, Hylaluronic Acid, and Gold Particles. It can be purchased online at a price of $30. This is not even the only anti-aging product on the market that contains gold particles, even though the science linking the topical application of gold to wrinkle fighting is nearly nonexistent.

The Good

  • The Botoceutical range of skin care products is reasonably priced.
  • There are a large number of anti-aging products in the Botoceutical skin care range.
  • There are full ingredient details for some of the products, although not for the anti-aging serum.

The Bad

  • There does not appear to be a money back guarantee upon purchase.
  • We are not told the exact peptides that the Botoceutical anti-wrinkle serum contains.
  • The ingredients in the Botoceutical anti-wrinkle serum for mature skin can also be found in a number of other anti aging products on the market.
  • Although its found in more than one wrinkle fighting product, the evidence that topically applied gold is effective is pretty light.

The Bottom Line

At the end of the day the ingredients in the Botoceutical anti-aging products can be found in a whole host of other anti aging products for sale. We are not told what makes them more effective than these other products with similar ingredients, and the lack of a professional, official website doesn’t help. We don’t see why, with so many choices available, consumers would pick Botoceutical products over and above others.

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.
