Enspri Collagen 5000 Facial Mask Review

 Updated On:

Overview

Enspri skin care products are distributed in the United States by Kintech USA. There are two products in the Enspri line: the Enspri Ceramide Skin Essence and the Enspri Collagen 5000 Facial Mask. The Enspri Collagen 5000 Facial Mask consists of two parts. The first is the Collagen 5000 Mask, and the second is the Collagen Activator gel that activates the collagen powder. According to the product’s website, it consists of 100% natural collagen that tones and tightens skin. Unfortunately, Enspri does not provide any links to clinical studies showing the effectiveness of their products.

The Enspri Collagen 5000 Facial Mask is available for purchase on the Enspri website. The company provides a 14-day money-back guarantee but we could not find further details on the guarantee.

Product Details

Collagen is a natural substance in the skin that keeps skin firm and tight as well as soft and supple. As we age, our body’s ability to produce collagen slows and our skin can become loose, dry, and flaky. Replenishing the skin’s collagen is an effective way to reduce wrinkles and tone and reinvigorate the skin. The Enspri Collagen 5000 is a pure collagen powder, while the activator contains aloe vera, cucumber fruit extract, green tea extract, and Vitamins A, C, and E. The inclusion of these ingredients may provide an antioxidant effect on the skin but without further information as to the concentrations, it is difficult to assess whether they are present in sufficient quantities to be effective. Although collagen is definitely an ingredient we look for in anti-wrinkle and anti-aging products, peptides such as Matrixyl 3000 and Argiriline are included with the collagen in the most effective products. These ingredients are not included in the Enspri Collagen 5000 Facial Mask.

The application instructions call for mixing the two products together to activate the collagen powder and produce a gel-like face mask. After spreading it on the face and neck, it dries for five minutes then is washed off. It is not clear whether leaving the collagen on the skin for five minutes allows it to be beneficial.

The Good

  • Contains all-natural collagen.
  • Contains some ingredients that may provide an anti-oxidant effect.
  • Company offers a 14-day money-back guarantee.

The Bad

  • Does not include clinically-proven peptides such as Matrixyl 3000 and Argiriline.
  • No links on website to clinical studies supporting the effectiveness of the product.
  • No product samples evidently available.
  • Expensive when compared to other collagen products.

The Bottom Line

Enspri Collagen 5000 Facial Mask is definitely worth a second look. Collagen has been proven to be an effective weapon in the war against aging skin. The fact that Enspri offers a money-back guarantee means that the company believes in and stands behind its products, which is what we like to see. However, at a price of around $125, it proves expensive when compared to some of its direct competitors. You may wish to research other high-quality formulations that contain collagen and also other proven ingredients like Matrixyl 3000 or Argiriline before settling on this one. There are products on the market that contain these active ingredients and that are produced by solid companies that also retail for less.

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.
