How It Works
Many women who tried this product as sticky and stiff, probably because of the high content of aloe vera gel. This product is mainly made of filler ingredients and extracts, both of which are ineffective. Fillers are ingredients that companies put into products to save money. As a result, the consumer pays for something that does not work. Extracts do not penetrate the surface of the skin, so they cannot stimulate collagen or increase elasticity. More importantly, though, the hyaluronic acid in this product is most likely ineffective. When injected directly into the skin, hyaluronic acid is effective, but when applied topically, there is no evidence that it stimulates collagen or improves elasticity.
