Oriki Review

Updated On:

Overview

Oriki is a “superior skin care line” that was founded back in 1984 by one Dr. Tuan Nguyen, who is a biochemist and dermatologist. He initially created this skin care line for his patients. As stated on the official website, he wanted to give them the absolute best treatments available that contain ideal natural botanical antioxidants and cosmeceutical ingredients. Some of the potential benefits that the Oriki skin care line offers are minimized pores, increases in collagen and elastin production, softer skin and the minimization of age spots, as well as a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles. There are testimonials provided on the official website for these treatments.

Some of the facial treatments offered by Oriki are the Whitening Serum, Rejuvenating Cream, Whitening Lotion, Green Tea Clay Mask, Lifting Facial Serum, Nourishing Cream, Firming Eye Serum, and Facial Cleanser (one for normal/dry skin and one for oily complexions). These Oriki products contain active components like Acetyl Hexapeptide-3, Ceramide-2, Hyaluronic Acid, Bambusa Vulgaris Extract, Camellia Oleifera Seed Extract, Glucosamine Hydrochloride, Glycolic Acid, Jojoba Oil, and Green Tea Extract. There is a helpful graph presented on the official website describing how the skin functions and why Oriki may be beneficial.

Product Details

Oriki is a brand of skin treatments geared toward women of all skin types. These products aim to address and remedy issues like rosacea, acne breakouts, melasma, dry skin, uneven skin tones, facial wrinkles, and collagen loss. Although the Oriki company is located in California, there is a convenient contact form provided on the website for anyone to take advantage of. An email address and contact phone number are also offered. Like most cosmetic brands, Oriki offers facial treatments that are supposed to be utilized daily as part of a regular skin care regimen.

A full list of ingredients for the Lifting Facial Serum are as follows: Deionized Water, Bambusa Vulgaris Extract, Pisum Sativum (Pea) Extract, Glucosamine Hydrochloride, Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Carbomer, Polysorbate 20, Palmitoyl Oligopeptide, Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7, Macrocystis Pyrifera, Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein, Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate, Hyaluronic Acid, Xanthan Gum, 1.2 Hexanediol, Caprylyl Glycol, Ethoxydiglycol, Cyclodextrin, and Glycin Soja (Soybean) Germ.

The Good

  • All Oriki skin care treatments can be acquired conveniently through the official website.
  • There are testimonials offered for these products.
  • All the ingredients found in each Oriki treatment can be found on the website.

The Bad

  • There doesn’t appear to be any sort of refund guarantee on the website for those who do not like Oriki products.
  • With so many ingredients incorporated into each skin care treatment, allergy issues may arise for some users.
  • Free trial samples of Oriki products are not offered through the official website.
  • There is no substantial scientific research provided to support this skin care line.

The Bottom Line

In regards to the Oriki skin care line, this brand of topical treatments doesn’t stand out much overall. While it does offer some modern active ingredients that can potentially assist with routine skin afflictions, so many other less expensive brands do the same thing. Furthermore, it would certainly be nice to see a solid refund option posted on the official website for those who decide that Oriki products are not right for them.

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.
