Skin Care Review: Strivectin SD

by pam bottoms, aurora, CO usa

Rating
No effect

Benefits
moisturizing

Drawbacks
I have gotten clogged pores: blackheads

Details
The 10th ingredient is algae extract which is very comedogenic. This is what clogs the pores. I noticed after 2 weeks that I have more blackheads than I did before using in just a short period of time. I believe this product is appealing to the public due to its sensationalized reviews and claims. I do find it very moisturizing and my skin is no longer dry from using retin a. I like that the eye cream is a separate product that is easy on the skin around the eyes without the burning of the peppermint in that area.

Conclusions
do not waste your money
