Lavera Review

This Website takes a close look at a variety of products in the health & beauty industry. The source content for this site comes from information available to the public. This Website and its writers are sponsored by Rauscher Bekke, the makers of Dermapril-SP. The information on this site is intended to educate and inform consumers.

Overview

Lavera was founded in 1987 by Thomas Haase. Mr. Haase had dermatitis since he was a toddler and grew up using topical creams made from synthetic ingredients. He suffered many different skin irritations and as he got older he decided it was time to create a better product for himself, as well as for others with sensitive skin. Lavera means “the truth” and this name is claimed to be a representation of the company's commitment to use very pure and organic ingredients.

Lavera has a complete line of products that were specifically created to care for people who suffer from allergies and have sensitive skin. The official Lavera website claims that Lavera was ranked #1 in 2008 by a consumer reporting magazine, Oeko-Test, based in Germany. Lavera's official website uses a different approach when it comes to recommending skin care regimens for potential users. They have anti-aging and skin care regimens for skin 30 and up, 40 and up, and 50 and up. There are many different categories on the Lavera website that range from bath to hair to makeup products. There is even a men's category.

Product Details

As far as the anti-aging department goes, Lavera offers a few different products under the product line Lavere. These include lifting serums, cleansers, moisturizers, and creams. Let's take a closer look at the Lifting Serum Hydro-Gel.

The Lifting Serum Hydro-Gel claims to improve the firmness of skin by over 90%. This product contains many different anti-oxidants as well as hyaluronic acid to help moisturize the skin and fight free radicals at the same time.

Though the ingredients aren't listed on the official website, they are posted on third party sites. The Lavere Lifting Serum Hydro-Gel contains: Water (Aqua), Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice*, Sodium Lactate, Glycerin, Alcohol, Saccharide Isomerate, Glucose Glutamate, Lecithin, Bambusa Vulgaris Extract, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Rhizobian Gum, Sodium Hyaluronate, Xantham Gum, Fragrance (Parfum), Benzyl Salicylate, Citronellol, Geraniol, Limonene, Linalool.

The Good

All natural and organic ingredients are featured in Lavera products.
Very thorough website that goes into great detail about the history and goals of Lavera.
Many different products available in various categories.

The Bad

No full ingredient lists are posted for the products.
Some products are quite expensive. The Lifting Serum Hydro-Gel is $89 for less than one ounce.
No money back guarantee on the official website.
No free trial is available on the official website.

The Bottom Line

The use of all natural ingredients and having products specifically designed for those with allergies and sensitive skin is very nice. The website is very informative and states Lavera's goals and passions clearly. The ingredients should be prominently listed, but Lavera only seems to hint at what is in each product. We like how specialized Lavera products are and the fact that they use all natural ingredients, but it might be a good idea to find some anti-aging products that utilize some of today's more potent wrinkle fighters and have cutting edge peptides clearly posted in the product ingredient lists.

Top Choice for 2008: Dermapril-SP

Dermapril-SP was our favorite product to introduce, with a patented formula and visible results after only two weeks of use. Matrixyl 3000™, the patented active ingredient in Dermapril-SP, is backed by a clinical study showing a reduction in appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by 44%.

Dermapril-SP is based on research into the mechanisms that enable younger skin to appear firmer, tighter and more supple than older people's skin. The treatment helps the skin regain a more youthful appearance by accelerating the natural production of three building blocks: Collagen, Fibronectin and Hyaluronic Acid. The result is a rapid rejuvenation and a dramatically reduced appearance of wrinkles and other signs of age caused by sun exposure, smoking, stress, hormonal changes and other common factors.

Frequent reported benefits include immediate tightening and firming; smoother, softer skin; diminished appearance of fine lines and wrinkles; and rejuvinated, glowing skin. Dermapril-SP is the only product on the market that combines patented Matrixyl 3000™ and green-tea extracts in a hydrating cream. Based on the high cost and quality of the ingredients, Dermapril-SP is reasonably priced. Customer satisfaction is high and Dermapril-SP offers a free trial, so that customers can fully evaluate the product prior to purchasing it.
