Overview

Lierac is a French line of cosmetics/skin care products that focus on incorporating botanical expertise with new-age scientific procedures. This cosmetic company was created with an emphasis on cosmeceutical skin care. With the assistance of medical research and natural plant extracts, one Dr. Cariel (a French medical doctor) began the “innovative” line of Lierac treatments and products nearly 30 years ago. The Lierac product line aims to address and correct a variety of skin afflictions and concerns ranging from hyper-pigmentation, to ages spots, to cellulite, to fine lines, to stretch marks, to severe wrinkles.

As with other cosmetic lines, Lierac is one that was formulated and developed to restore and remedy the skin’s physiological balance, in addition to assisting with many other common disorders. Lierac offers a wide array of 46 different products. Some of these are known as; Cohérence Age-Defense firming day cream, Cohérence Age-Defense firming night cream, Hydra-Chrono anti-aging and hydration cream, Hydra-Chrono anti-aging and hydration extreme balm and Lotion Tonique Douceur. These particular Lierac skin care treatments are designed primarily for anti-aging and hydration purposes. These products are essentially generated from active plant ingredients and scientific research. However, it would be easy to see how some consumers could become easily confused and overwhelmed by the numerous products available.

Product Details

The Lierac cosmetic line is developed to assist women with common symptoms of aging such as stretch marks, fine lines, age spots, cellulite, wrinkles and hyper-pigmentation. These products incorporate key ingredients like natural plant botanicals to encourage positive results. Lierac offers skin care treatments suitable for the face and body, but primarily focuses on skin hydration and anti-aging. These cosmetics additionally aim to stimulate skin cell renewal.

The Good

  • Lierac has been in business for over 30 years.
  • Lierac skin care products contain moisturizers.
  • The official website provides a 1-800 number.
  • Lierac products are offered at drugstores such as Eckerd, CVS/pharmacy and Brooks Pharmacy.
  • The official website can be viewed in several languages.

The Bad

  • Lierac products are not offered via the official website.
  • Lierac does not offer a money-back guarantee.
  • The website lacks full product ingredient lists.
  • The official Lierac website does not reveal prices.
  • Lierac offers no scientific proof that their cosmetics truly work.
  • No free samples are offered via the website.

The Bottom Line

When it comes down to it, Lierac skin care products are a bit pricey in comparison to many other brands (ranging anywhere from $30-$100+). Although the official website is certainly consumer friendly, considering the various languages it offers, there are no Lierac products actually available for order on the website. On the bright side, Lierac does incorporate a variety of plant extracts and botanicals to assist with anti-aging, but the actual ingredients seem to be left off of the site. Therefore it’s iffy purchasing these “high-end” cosmetics/skin care treatments, because it’s difficult to tell what you’re actually buying and whether or not it contains ingredients that will harm your complexion and/or body. Considering how forthcoming many of the competing products making similar claims are, we’d probably go with one of those instead.

Our top pick for 2008:  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.
