Overview
Cellex-C provides an entire line of anti-aging products using a patented blend of vitamin C. While ascorbic acid, the purest form of vitamin C that is used in this skin care line, is an effective way to protect the skin from the effects of aging, it can also be irritating to sensitive skin types. The Cellex-C company responded to this concern by producing the Cellex-C Serum for Sensitive Skin, offering the best ingredients from their High Potency Serum in a buffered formula that claims to be gentler for sensitive skin. The serum claims to reduce the signs of aging like fine lines, wrinkles, sagging skin and age spots. It also promises to improve skin's elasticity and resiliency.
The Cellex-C products are not sold directly through the company website. Instead, they are marketed through a preferred distributor, glo Skin Care, who offers a 30-day money back guarantee on all purchases. Consumers can also find the Cellex-C products from some online retailers. Unfortunately, we were unable to find customer testimonials or before and after photos to back the claims of these products at this time. The products are fairly expensive, with a one-ounce bottle of Cellex-C Serum for Sensitive Skin selling for $100 at the time of this review.
Product Details
Ingredients in the Cellex-C Serum for Sensitive Skin include Ascorbic acid, acetyl tyrosine, zinc sulphate, sodium hyaluronate and pine bark extract. The ascorbic acid, tyrosine and zinc make up the patented vitamin C complex that Cellex-C claims stabilizes the vitamin C to preserve its potency on the skin. Sodium hyaluronate is a common ingredient in many anti-aging formulas because it can effectively hydrate the skin and smooth out some fine lines. However, we believe that sodium hyaluronate works much more effectively when it is combined with proven anti-wrinkle ingredients like argireline and matrixyl.
While vitamin C can stimulate the production of collagen by the skin, we believe the evidence suggests that there are more potent ingredients to do so. Matrixyl is also known for its ability to stimulate collagen production, and this peptide has been found to be one of the most effective in anti-aging products. In addition, many formulas will actually include collagen right in the mix for the greatest skin plumping benefits. Vitamin C is a wonderful ingredient for protecting the skin and warding off the effects of aging. However, it may not be the best choice to combat the signs of aging that have already appeared.
The Good
- Cellex-C Serum for Sensitive Skin contains sodium hyaluronate.
- The company that sells the product provides a money back guarantee.
- The product is specifically designed for sensitive skin.
The Bad
- Other proven anti-aging ingredients are not included in the formula.
- We were unable to find customer testimonials and before and after photos.
- The product is very expensive.
- Cellex-C offers many products with similar formulas, making it difficult to choose one.
The Bottom Line
Cellex-C Serum for Sensitive Skin may be a good choice for those with sensitive skin who are looking to ward off the effects of aging. However, with a high price tag and few proven anti-wrinkle ingredients, those who want a wrinkle treating formula may want to look elsewhere.
