Joshi Review

 Updated On:

Overview

The official website for the Joshi’s Holistic Skincare products tell us that Nish Joshi, who is the founder of the company, is a leading exponent of holistic health care in the United Kingdom. We are told that the Joshi’s Holistic Skincare range uses an integrative approach to skincare featuring natural and holistic methods. The skin care products in Joshi’s Holistic Skincare can be ordered directly from the official website and we are told that none of the products within this brand’s line contain parabens or synthetic fragrances.

Product Details

The anti-aging products in the Joshi’s Holistic Skincare range include the Joshi’s Holistic Skincare Intensive Hand Treatment. We are told that this hand treatment is an extremely thick nourishing cream that will aid with cell reproduction. We are also told that it will be able to reduce signs of aging, such as age spots, by inhibiting the production of melanin. The official website tells us that the cream includes Shea Butter, Marine Kelp, Vitamin E and Grapefruit Essential Oil. The price of the products on the website is given in British Pounds and the price of the Joshi’s Holistic Skincare Intensive Hand Treatment is £16. There are, of course, a large number of other anti-aging products for sale on the market that also contain Shea Butter and Marine Kelp. We are given no information, however, as to what distinguishes this anti-aging product from other products that contain the same ingredients available on the market.

The products in the skincare range can also be purchased in a number of shops in London, and the addresses of these shops are listed on the official website. The anti-aging range also includes the Joshi’s Holistic Skincare Protection Day Cream. The main active ingredients in this cream include Vitamin E and Rosehip Oil. We are told that rosehip oils are rich in essential fatty acids, which are important for cellular repair and to prevent the signs of aging. We do know that essential fatty acids have beneficial properties for the skin, but this product is certainly not the only one available which contains them.

The Good

  • There is an official website.
  • We are told that none of the skincare products in the Joshi’s Holistic Skincare range contains parabens.
  • The products can be ordered directly from the website.

The Bad

  • The purchase price of the products is only given in British Pounds, and their US availability isn’t very clear.
  • There does not seem to be money back guarantee upon purchase of a product in the Joshi’s Holistic Skincare range.
  • There is no offer of a free trial sample.
  • We are presented with no clinical evidence to back up the claims made for the products in this anti-aging range.

The Bottom Line

At the end of the day the ingredients in the anti-aging products in the Joshi’s Holistic Skincare range can be found in hundreds of other natural skin care products available for sale. Given the lack of manufacturer support, we have no reason to choose this line over and above others for sale.

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.
