Renee Rouleau Review

 Updated On:

Overview

Renee Rouleau is an eponymous line of beauty products created by Ms. Renee Rouleau. Renee set out to create a multitude of specialized skincare products that cater to various kinds of skin types, instead of just your basic three skin types which are dry, normal, and oily. Renee Rouleau started out by opening a spa, but later launched her own line of skincare products. Many celebrities are featured on the official website and apparently they use Renee Rouleau spas and other products.

The official Renee Rouleau website has well over 50 products available, and these range from cleansers to masks to moisturizers. The site offers a few skincare kits that combine various products and put them in a convenient, one-stop package. In the anti-aging department, the products that really stand out are the Instant Line Filler and the Swiss Collagen Complex.

Product Details

The Renee Rouleau anti-aging products seem to contain some fairly common ingredients that similar products use. Many of the products have anti-oxidants and vitamins in them that may benefit the skin. Let's take a closer look at the two anti-aging products mentioned above.

The Renee Rouleau Instant Line Filler is supposed to give you smoother skin with less wrinkles almost instantly. This product utilizes hyaluronic acid as one of its main ingredients. Hyaluronic acid is a powerful moisturizer that is common in many anti-aging products today.

The Renee Rouleau Swiss Collagen Complex claims to improve your skin’s hydration and works beneath the skin to better moisturize. This product uses yeast extract, which may work as a plant based collagen enhancer. The official Renee Rouleau website doesn't have very thorough descriptions of many of its products, and the full list of ingredients isn't available. The products are fairly expensive and range from about $30.00 to $70.00 each.

The Good

  • The official website has an area that will help you determine your skin type and recommend various products.

The Bad

  • There are no testimonials available on the official website.
  • Fairly expensive. Many products are over $30 for .5 ounces.
  • No money-back return policy. You can exchange unopened merchandise for gift certificates only.

The Bottom Line

The Renee Rouleau product line is fairly diverse, and you should be able to find a product or two that sounds interesting. We noticed that this website really encourages new customers to use multiple products at once and it is always recommending something else to consumers. While helpful, this struck us as a little on the pushy side.

There really isn't anything spectacular about the Renee Rouleau anti-aging products that we could determine. They don't really contain many useful ingredients and they look more like moisturizers instead of a complete wrinkle solution. We would rather stick to a product that uses a combination of powerful, proven ingredients instead.

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.
