Guest guest Posted March 24, 2002 Report Share Posted March 24, 2002 > I'm baffled as to how these sites intend to win our affections when > they can't even list the ingredients! I completely agree, , except even with ingredients I still wouldn't give many in the cosmetics and skin care industry my affections. I believe ingredients aren't listed because: -it would reveal that the " magic potion " is anything but -it would reveal that the high cost is not justified and most important: - it would reveal just how many potential irritants are present in their advertised " sensitive skin " or " for rosaceans " products Marjorie Marjorie Lazoff, MD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 26, 2002 Report Share Posted March 26, 2002 Hello to everyone that has commented to me about the Yonka & Eris creams: Someone asked, " what specifically I am looking for " . Well, I am currently using the Vita-K, & have spent 4 1/2 months using the cure (by Canderm), and have seen some overall improvement w/ redness (but I think the Vita-k has worked better in a shorter amount of time). My " resting state " skin is not as pink as it once was, but I still get a violently red nose when I'm out in the cold weather. However, my nose goes back to normal faster. So, I guess what I'm looking for was other possible helpful ingredients - I mean, I did not know that vitamin K or the active ingredients in cure might be of benefit until I was introduced to the product. Since these 2 creams don't work for everyone, I was hoping to stumble onto another concoction that might be my specific silver bullet! And Marjorie - I agree w/ you completely about your comments about what the cosmetic companies might be trying to hide. I suspect that in addition to that, the sellers of these products are reluctant to assess their wares honestly; I mean, I guess I can't really expect the seller to say, " well, you know, this stuff don't do squat for red complexions, but you should see my profit margin!! " I'm done considering the Yonka & Eris creams, since the sellers don't seem to upfront about them (& I can't find anything thorough in English about the companies, just French & Polish). I'm gonna stick w/ my 2x a day w/ the Vita-k & give it more time. - in Michigan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
