Re Nutriv Review

 Updated On:

Overview

Re Nutriv is a line of anti-aging treatments developed by Estee Lauder, which is a cosmetic brand founded by one Josephine Ester Mentzer. She began this cosmetic/skin care line with her husband back in 1948. By 1960, Estee Lauder had reached international success. Currently Estee lauder focuses on a broad array of make up and skin care products. Re Nutriv in particular is a group of four skin care treatments that endeavor to deliver a younger and "more lifted" appearance without intrusive skin care procedures.

The Estee Lauder anti-aging line known as Re Nutriv consists of four different treatments. These are called Re Nutriv Ultimate Lifting Serum, Re Nutriv Ultimate Lifting Cream, Re Nutriv Ultimate Lifting Eye Cream and Re Nutriv Ultimate Lifting Cream Makeup SPF 15. These products are said to incorporate the latest skin science and "rare ingredients." One primary component found in Re Nutriv is known as OGG1 enzyme technology, which is claimed to aid in the reduction of past sun damage. The Re Nutriv products are supposed to be used morning and night in cooperation with one another. First the serum is applied after cleansing, then the cream, followed by the eye cream. Naturally, the Re Nutriv Ultimate Lifting Cream Makeup SPF 15 is used during the day to protect the skin from the sun's harmful rays. Used together, Re Nutriv aims to assist with common aging dilemmas such as fine lines, collagen loss, facial sagging, sun damage, dark circles and skin discoloration.

Product Details

The Re Nutriv line from Estee lauder is essentially a series of anti-aging treatments geared toward middle-aged and older women. These treatments claim to assist with collagen production, wrinkle reduction, minimizing dark circles and battling past sun damage. A key active ingredient found in Re Nutriv products is OGG1 enzyme technology. This "groundbreaking" combination of ingredients aims to dramatically reduce past UVA damage. Re Nutriv products are marketed toward all skin types.

The Good

  • All Estee Lauder products can be purchased online via the official website.
  • Estee Lauder has a long-standing reputation in the cosmetic industry.
  • Estee Lauder offers a simple return/exchange policy on their website.
  • Re Nutriv skin treatments contain moisturizers.

The Bad

  • There are no clinical studies offered on the official website that show how Re Nutriv products will benefit your complexion.
  • Re Nutriv skin care treatments are rather expensive for the average consumer, ranging from $80-$250 each.
  • Re Nutriv products do not appear to be dermatologist-recommended.
  • Some ingredients found in Re Nutriv treatments may irritate the complexions of some users.
  • Re Nutriv skin care requires several steps and possibly a sunscreen, which could be a hassle for some users.

The Bottom Line

There's no doubt that Estee Lauder is one cosmetic/skin care line that has been in business for quite some time. However, it's truly difficult to determine whether or not Re Nutriv skin treatments will have the claimed "dramatic" effects on your skin. Sure, the concept of younger, smoother, brighter and more radiant complexions sounds great, but that doesn't mean Re Nutriv products will produce such stellar results for all users. Moreover, the cost of this skin care regimen could prove rather pricey for some. Those who choose to purchase all four products will be shelling out $630 to Estee Lauder per cycle for face care alone. And that doesn't even include a facial cleanser, toner or makeup items.

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.
