Skin Care Review: Susan Lucci Youthful Essence

Rating
Adverse Effects

Benefits
No benefit for those with sensitive skin.

Drawbacks
Can be dangerous to anyone with sensitive skin, rosacea, serious acne.

Details
The instructions said to use the product for 5-7 days then rest for 5 days, then resume with 3-4 times per week. I never got that far. By the third day, my face was so raw, tender and swollen, I had to put ice packs on my face. My $39.95 investment cost me $200.00 in physician's charges and another $50.00 for prescription steriods to counteract the allergic reaction. The kit consists of a facial wash, a little battery operated facial massager (like the kind you find at a dollar store) and the resurfacing cream. The resurfacing crystal cream is very scratchy and rough and almost impossible to wash off. Everyone on the tv testimonial says their skin feels so smoothe after they use it, but actually that smoothness is the waxy, greasy residue left on your skin by the resurfacing cream. The ingredients in the cream are too harsh for most skin types and I was shocked to see that one of the ingredients was propylene glycol (antifreeze).

Conclusions
Use this product cautiously and do not even try it if you have sensitive skin.
