Overview
The researchers at AntiAging-Reviews.com were very skeptical when first asked to review this product. Manufactured by Irwin Naturals - a vitamin company - at times it seems as if Wrinkle Cure is no longer for sale, only to reappear again on the company’s web site and other materials. Irwin Naturals is headed by Klee Irwin, who has gained a certain degree of fame for promoting his Dual Action Cleanse colon cleansing product on late-night infomercials. This leads us to wonder whether Mr. Irwin, or any other person within his company, knows enough about skincare to put forth an effective anti-wrinkle treatment.
Featured Ingredients
Wrinkle Cure consists of two products that rely on a mixture of Vitamin C and Glycolic Acid, both of which seem weak and outdated choices for battling wrinkles and fine lines. Perhaps this is why the product has been discontinued, sold again and discontinued once again, signaling that the company may not be able to clear inventory. Although Vitamin C does seem to offer some protection against wrinkles, it may take up to 8 weeks to see any noticeable effect.
Prior to 1992, Glycolic Acid was available only by prescription from a doctor, because it was such a strong alpha-hydroxy acid ingredient and could cause severe irritation and peeling. Research has since questioned the use of this ingredient because of the risk of side effects, and the long-term effects are still not conclusive.
Web Site Description
The web site for Irwin Naturals seems incomplete. Most of the emphasis is placed on the company’s vitamin products. There is very little, if any, information available about Wrinkle Cure. In addition, it is not clear whether this product can be ordered online or must be found at one of the health food stores that sell Irwin Naturals products. The site does not contain any customer testimonials or ingredient information.
Positives
- None
Negatives
- Use of outdated and potentially harmful ingredients
- Information on the product is hard to come by
- Web site is incomplete - customer may not be able to find formula
- No Before/After photos
Conclusion
Considering the lack of information that Irwin Naturals publishes about Wrinkle Cure - and the fact that we cannot be sure if it is still being sold - the AntiAging-Reviews.com team cannot recommend this product. In addition, during our research, we spoke to an employee of the company who revealed that the before/after pictures placed on the product packaging are fake. This is a serious violation that should convince any reasonable person to avoid this product.
