Overview
Even though the founders obviously put a lot of time and effort into giving Solange a European-sounding name, this product actually is manufactured and distributed in the United States. Of course, that doesn’t necessary mean that Solange doesn’t work, but the researchers at AntiAging-Reviews.com wanted to give this formula a closer look and determine whether or not this product actually - as its name suggests - acts like angel’s wings to protect the skin from aging.
Featured Ingredients
The makers of Solange repeatedly refer to the philosophy behind this formula as “collagen care.” One would assume, then, that Solange would probably contain proven collagen boosters like Regenex, Glucosamine Complex and Hyaluronic Acid. Unfortunately, Solange contains none of these. Most of the formula consists of vitamins like Vitamin A, C and E, which all have been shown to have a protective effect on the skin and shield it from sun exposure and other sources of free radicals. But usually one has to wait at least 8 weeks or longer to notice any such difference. Solange’s only collagen-boosting effect seems to come from the inclusion of copper peptides. Copper, in limited scientific studies, has been shown to slightly encourage collagen and elastin. But these studies are not conclusive, and copper seems much weaker than other known collagen boosters. In addition, research suggests that excessive use of copper on the skin may actually weaken collagen and elastin levels
Web Site Description
After reviewing the web site, it is clear that Solange does offer products other than its Collagen Crème, but not much is known about these products. Information is a bit scant, but Solange does seem to offer some intriguing moisturizers, which may require further research. Collagen Crème is offered at $40 a bottle, which seems high considering that the formula is nothing more than vitamins and copper peptides. In addition, Solange does not offer customers the opportunity to try the formula for free before deciding to pay full price.
Positives
- Some use of known protective vitamins
Negatives
- Use of copper is questionable and may be harmful
- No free trial
- Price seems high for such a weak formula
Conclusion
While Solange does indeed sound fancy, the product itself fails to live up to expectations, especially when compared head-to-head against other, more powerful collagen boosters. The use of copper peptides seems outdated and overuse could in fact detract from healthy skin more than helping it. At this time, we cannot recommend Solange.
