Diana Yvonne Review

Updated On:

Overview

Diana Yvonne is a distributor of several brands of skin, body and hair care products. The Diana Yvonne skin care line includes serums and creams for anti-aging, as well as moisturizers, cleansers and toners. The website itself is rather awkward to navigate and it may be difficult to get a true picture of the focus and products offered by Diana Yvonne.

All of the skin care products are available for sale directly on the Diana Yvonne website. Of particular interest is the copper peptide line of products. Copper peptides are proteins bound with copper. Copper peptides are most often used in the healing of wounds and lesions, but they are also an interesting new development in the world of anti-wrinkle treatments. Diana Yvonne carries close to two dozen copper peptide anti-aging products alone, which can make it difficult to choose the one that’s right for your situation and skin type. There are full ingredient listings with each product that will help those with skin sensitivities and allergies to determine whether the product is appropriate for them.

Diana Yvonne sells sample sizes of some of their products for $5 each plus shipping. Not all products are available and only one sample of each product can be purchased. There does not appear to be any money-back guarantee offered through the Diana Yvonne website.

Product Details

The Diana Yvonne copper peptide line of rejuvenating products definitely holds promise. Copper peptides have been scientifically proven to heal wounds and to reduce and eliminate wrinkles while restoring the skin. In fact, some of the Diana Yvonne copper peptide products contain so much of this featured ingredient that the company warns that the product may be irritating to the skin.

Many of the products in the Diana Yvonne copper peptide line contain parabens, such as methylparaben, a known allergen. Users with allergies should study the ingredient list for each product carefully before purchasing. Some of the copper peptide products also contain squalane, found in many of the higher-quality anti-wrinkle products on the market. Retinol is also a common ingredient in the Diana Yvonne product lines. Retinol is an animal sourced Vitamin A so it is not appropriate for vegans. Many independent studies show retinol’s effectiveness as a supplement but there does not appear to be much information available about its impact when applied topically.

The Good

  • Available for purchase on the Diana Yvonne website.
  • Contains copper peptides, which may have an impact on wrinkle reduction.
  • May have an overall effect on skin smoothing and repairing.

The Bad

  • Sheer number of products may make selection of the correct one for you difficult.
  • Some products contain known allergens, such as parabens.
  • No apparent money-back guarantee.
  • Company provides little information on effectiveness of its other active ingredients, such as retinol.

The Bottom Line

Some Diana Yvonne skin care products are worth taking a second look at, especially the copper peptide line. Purchasing the trial sizes may be best until you know for sure how your skin will react to these ingredients and how effective the product is. If you purchase full size applications, you may not be able to get a refund if the product doesn’t work for you or if you have an allergic reaction. There are several high-quality anti-wrinkle formulations on the market that also include peptides with more clinical study behind them and a full satisfaction guarantee as well.

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.
