Overview
Skin Effects is a South African company producing anti-aging products. The current product line includes anti-aging products, anti-aging face creams and skin needling.
There is an official website for the Skin Effects product line. The website includes contact information and a price list for the Skin Effects products. The prices are all offered in Rand, the South African currency. The listed products appear to be spa treatments or medicinal treatments as opposed to supplements or facial creams.
Product Details
After taking a closer look at the Skin Effects website and product line, it seems the products are not available for shipping to the United States. There is not a list of products the consumer can purchase offsite either. The Skin Effects company seems to be a physical company in South Africa with a website to promote their products and services as opposed to offering the anti-aging products for sale. The product line is used as part of an in person treatment for anti-aging. None of the products listed on the website offer a complete ingredient list. As a matter of fact, there are only a few products with given names on the website. These include Dr. Morrow's Anti-Aging Cream, Kinerase-Vitamin A, NeoStrata and Environ. It is unclear if these products are manufactured by the Skin Effects company or some other third party company.
The consumer looking to find anti-aging products will not find relevant information on the Skin Effects website. With such a strong anti-aging market, the Skin Effects product line needs to be more available to the consumer to optimize sales. This includes providing more information on the supplements and skin creams available through Skin Effects. Without this information, the website offers very little to the anti-aging consumer and no ability to utilize the Skin Effects products.
The Good
- There is an official website for the Skin Effect anti-aging line.
- Before and after photos are included on the Skin Effects website.
- Some of the products may decrease the signs of aging.
The Bad
- The website is confusing with little relevant information listed.
- The names of the products offered by Skin Effects are not clearly marked.
- The product price page offers spa and medical treatments.
- The products cannot be ordered online.
- There are not ingredient lists on the Skin Effects website.
The Bottom Line
The Skin Effects anti-aging products may be beneficial, but no one in the United States will ever be able to find out unless they are willing to fly to South Africa. The products are not named on the website clearly, there are no ingredient lists and no information at all to prove the products or treatments work to improve aging skin. We cannot support the use of a product that is clearly not providing the information needed by the consumer to make an educated product decision.
Consumers looking for anti-aging skin care products for look for products which list the full list of ingredients and also offer free trials or a money back guarantee. A trusted anti-aging skin care product will have clinical evidence to prove the effectiveness of their products. Consumers should look for products containing Matrixyl 3000 or Argatensyl, which are two ingredients proven to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
