Overview

The Meaningful Beauty line of cosmetic products are largely the brainchild of famous French dermatologist Dr. Jean-Louis Sebagh, who started designed products for consumers after years of helping celebrities like supermodel Cindy Crawford to deal with problem skin. Meaningful Beauty recently teamed up with Cindy Crawford, who is the lead spokesperson for the line, and Guthy-Renker, one of the most famous (or infamous, depending on your perspective) infomercial companies in the United States. Meaningful Beauty does take a unique approach to facial aging by offering a unique Facial Masque that can be applied to the face and washed off after a brief wait. We decided to look further into this formula’s ingredients and judge for ourselves.

 Featured Ingredients

Meaningful Beauty’s Facial Masque consists mainly of traditional botanical extracts, which basically operate by cleansing the skin, toning it and providing protection against damaging elements. One of these is Ginkgo Biloba, which is usually used as an ingestible supplement to enhance brain function. Ginkgo Biloba does help to enhance circulation, so its inclusion in this formula could help revitalize parts of the skin that have become cut off from a good supply of oxygenated blood.

Meaningful Beauty also contains Eucalytpus Oil, which is an effective astringent that helps dry out and remove excess oil and other clogging materials. Eucalyptus is often used by aestheticians as a first step before performing a facial, since it does have a powerful cleansing effect.

The company’s facial masque also includes Cucumis Sativa (cucumber), which has a long history of use in spas as a gentle toner for the skin. We’ve all been imprinted with the image of a woman lying in a spa with two cucumber slices over her eyes. There is a reason for that image, since Cucumber does in fact help to soothe the skin.

 Web Site Description

The Web site for Meaningful Beauty actually contains quite a bit of helpful information for consumers and seems pretty straight-forward in its presentation. There is a 60-second clip about some of the products, which features instructions on how to apply the Facial Masque product. In addition, each of its products comes with a 60-day money-back guarantee, which is refreshing.

 Positives

- 60 day guarantee

- Some helpful botanical cleansers in the product

 Negatives

- Does not really help to reduce wrinkles

- Contains no collagen boosters like Glucosamine Complex

- No free trial option available

 Conclusion

While these ingredients may have beneficial effects on the skin, it doesn’t seem as if they will really perform any sort of significant or lasting wrinkle reduction effect. We don’t doubt Meaningful Beauty - or Dr. Sebagh’s - reputation in the field, but this product seems like a good supplementary formula rather than one you could rely on to fight wrinkles and help protect against future wrinkle formation. We recommend this product only in conjunction with a proven wrinkle reducer.
