Glamotox Review

 Updated On:

Overview

Glamotox is a British cosmetic product made by Rodial. Rodial was founded by a beautician named Maria, and the firm is named after her son, Rodial. Rodial has an elegant philosophy. They make products that can help you achieve a younger looking skin without surgery. In all Rodial formulations the chief ingredient is Pomegranate Ellagic Tannin. This substance has been touted to firm the skin, erase fine lines and wrinkles and remodel facial collagen in deep layers.

Rodial has a lot of skincare products including deodorants, anti-aging creams, creams to erase pigments, exfoliants, moisturizers and fragrances. The latest Rodial product is an anti-aging solution called Glamotox. It is claimed that application of this night solution can immediately freeze your facial muscles so that the wrinkles and fine lines will disappear. This revolutionary collagen free formula can instantly make you feel 10 years younger. Rodial claims that Glamotox works by increasing collagen production, so that at the end of the day you will have skin that is smooth, soft, youthful and gorgeous, not to forget luminous.

The Good

  • Elegant website.
  • Natural ingredients.
  • Contains hyaluronic acid.
  • Available in high end stores.
  • Used by celebrities.

The Bad

  • Very expensive.
  • No photos.
  • No free samples.
  • Product guarantees are not clear.
  • Main active ingredient is essentially pomegranate.

The Bottom Line

Rodial has an exclusive website, and products like Glamotox cater primarily to the rich. The majority of formulas and creams are costly, often over $200. The value of the American dollar means that you can add another $25-$40 or more to the cost. Maria the boss mentions that her products are used by many celebrities, and that she herself is an often sought-after beautician at talk shows. Her products contain mostly natural ingredients, Hyaluronate and ProCollagen peptides. There are a lot of claims made and, judging from the pictures of celebrities in the magazines, everyone looks stunning.

We are sure Rodial has some great products, but for anyone looking for wrinkle fighters on a budger, there are a lot of other anti-aging creams which contain the same ingredients and are very affordable. Glamotox may just be too “premium” for its own good. In the end, cosmetics and skincare all comes to affordability. For the moment, Rodial products like Glamotox just don’t offer enough substance for the big bucks.

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.
