• Do they really work?

• If so, how long do they take?

• Can they grow more actual hairs?

• What about Side Effects?

No doubt but by now you've caught wind of some of the big buzz that's going on right now that's being created by eyelash growth products for sale on the Internet. Liquids in mascara type containers that are touted as being able to grow you fuller, longer lashes.

Do They Really Work?

Are Eyelash Growth Products Just All Hype?

So then what's the real story behind it all? Is this just one more “boom-to-bust” wave of hype that ends up leading all who follow it down a disappointing dead end? Or is it actually a story with merit? After all, hair growth products for balding men are old news.

Some Do Work Better Than Others

The simple answer, is yes there are viable products available that can deliver actual results, but just as in so many other cases of new developments of this type, some products work better than others and then again the worst of them are a total scam.

What These Products Can't Do

Now before I get into how you can separate the good from the bad, with regards to the eyelash growth products that are out there, I want to make one thing perfectly clear. That is that no product on the market can force your skin to create new hair follicles.

Don't Believe Everything You Read or Hear

What this means is that you're basically stuck with a set number of hairs on your body and that includes your lashes. This means that any promotional media or literature that alleges that anything can in any way get “more actual hair” to grow is false.

You Never Actually Lose Your Hair

You see your problem, if you're hair has thinned back in any way and that includes your lashes, isn't that it has gone away completely. Rather, what's happened is that it has receded back to a type of “fuzz”. The hair and follicle is still there. You just cant see it. That's all.

Before and After Photos

So eyelash growth products that work, function by stimulating any dormant follicles to “perk up” and get back in the game of producing long thick healthy hair. At the same time, they work to help those follicles that are functional to function even better.

Growing Any Hair Does Take Time

You're going to need a lot of patience though because like it or not, hair takes time to grow. This means that once you get your hands on a product that works, it will be at least a few months before you really start to see “full results”. You just have to wait for the hair to grow out.

Just One More Amazing Accidental Discovery

Would you believe that it was people with glaucoma who first began to notice that the eye drops that were prescribed to them were having an effect on their eyelashes? Well it's true and this is why the best eyelash growth products contain prostaglandin. It's the same active ingredient that's contained in glaucoma drops.

Over-Use of Growth Products Does More Harm than Good

Do be aware though that overuse can lead to real problems with your eyes. There's a whole list of side effects that can come from eyelash growth products but as long as you follow the directions and apply the product carefully, you should have no problem. Remember that overdoing it helps “not one bit”.

Revaleskin is a relative newcomer to the skin care game. It made its debut back in 2007, with a very small product line that makes heavy use of the coffee berry. Now understand that this doesn't include the coffee bean, which is on the inside of the berry. It's the extract of outer hull that's processed and used by Revaleskin.

As it turns out, the coffee berry and that even includes the inner bean to some extent, possess powerful antioxidant properties. Antioxidants function by neutralizing free radicals before they have a chance to damage skin cells. Free radicals oxidize cells, just the way that oxygen oxidizes the paint on a car and leaves it looking dull.

Now the real benefit of topical antioxidants, is they bring the treatment directly to the problem. Your skin. You see you can always take oral antioxidants but the problem is that your body doesn't store them. Also after traveling through your bloodstream, there really isn't much left by the time they make it to your skin.

Now a lot of hype is going on regarding the potency of coffee berry extract in Revaleskin products. Yes it's true that coffee berry is a special substance in this respect but then again its not as if people have to climb into crocodile infested swamps to gather them.

In fact coffee plantations used to throw the coffee berry husk out and in fact some still do. The point I'm trying to make here, is that you really shouldn't be bowled over by so much of the hype that holds these products up as though they contain some rare elixir.

So in light of the fact that Revaleskin products contain what used to be, for all intents and purposes leftover agricultural waste in many coffee producing regions, it's not hard to see the validity of the claims that some people are making that these products are a bit over-priced.

At the same time though, skin care products in general, particularly those that are proven to work, tend to be a bit pricy. In fact you don't have to look far online to find comparable skin care products featuring price tags that are easily double what you'll pay for Revaleskin.

At the same time, a quick check of Amazon.com shows all of the products in their lineup sporting pretty much consistent 4-5 star consumer user review ratings. What this means, is that the people out there who have purchased their products, tended to be very happy with them.

Revaleskin Replenishing Eye Therapy

I normally don't like to include ingredient lists in my skin therapy product profiles because for the most part, they only tend to confuse people. However; in this case I'll make an exception solely for the purpose of letting you know that there is more than coffee berry extract in this product that lists for $90 on the companies website.

In fact I was surprised to see that there are in fact several commonly used emollients listed prior to the coffee extract, which means that there is a greater percentage of these substances than the extract. By the way, this Reveleskin eye treatment product contains 1% coffee extract and weighs in at just over a half an ounce. .51 oz.

Purified Water, Saccharomyces Fermant, Glycereth-26, C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Pentylene Glycol, Glyceryl Stearate, PEG-100 Stearate, Glycerin, Cyclopentasiloxane, Coffea Arabica Fruit Extract, Caffeine, Sodium PCA, Phenoxyethanol, Steareth-2, Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer, Mica, Silica, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Isohexadecane, Algae Extract, Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Extract, Anthemis Nobills Flower Extract, Disodium EDTA, PEG-8, Xanthan Gum, Ethylhexylglycerin, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Steareth-20, Cyclohexasiloxane, Pullulen, Polysorbate 60, Polyphosphorylcholine Glycol Acrylate, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5, N-Hydroxysuccinimide, Phospholipids, Glycol Acrylate, Aplmitoyl Tripeptide-5, N-Hydroxysuccinimide, Phospholipids, Glycosphingolipids, Cholesterol, Chrysin, Palmitoyl, Oligopeptide and Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7.

Revaleskin Daily Cleanser

This product lists for $40 on the companies main website and it also weighs in at 6 ounces. Now I was surprised that they have no other size option because after all it is a daily cleanser. What about a travel size? Or just maybe a more economical larger bottle, like so many other companies are doing?

Now I looked and looked but I couldn't find any information regarding the actual percentage of coffee extract that's contained in this cleanser. Even so, it's positioned in about the same area on the ingredients list, so I assume that it's 1%. Just like the eye therapy. Now if $40 for 6 oz sounds expensive, know that it comes with a full 60 day satisfaction guarantee, which is nice of them.

Revaleskin Day Cream SPF 15

It seems to me that just about every skin therapy company out there now has at least one version of this type of under makeup daily therapy/sunblock cream or lotion. So in my opinion, the list price of $110 for 1.6 ounces of this product is a bit steep. At least that was the price on the companies main site.

I also didn't like the way that they played with words when they stated that it's “loaded” with coffee extract. Yet just one paragraph down it lists it as containing 1%. Hardly loaded! To top it off, there's no 60 day money back satisfaction guarantee with this product either. I really do think that they can find a way to offer a little more than 1.6 oz for the price.

Anyway enough of my griping. On a more positive note: Revaleskin really does appear to have the market cornered on coffee extract products. At least for the time being and you just can't go wrong with an antioxidant/sunblock if you're out in the sun during the day. Apply a thin layer before putting on your makeup in the morning.

Revaleskin Night Cream


It just seems that the further you go down the page, the higher the prices get. The way I figure it, at $120 for 1.7 ounces, this stuff either “really works” or its all smoke an mirrors. But then again Revaleskin products have been getting consistant 4-5 star user reviews on Amazon.com, so perhaps there is something to it.

Even so, just like the Replenishing Eye Therapy, I went ahead and included the ingredients list for this product so you can see that there is a lot more in it than just the 1% coffee berry extract in it. Apply just a thin layer around the orbital regions of your eyes before you head off to bed.

Water, Glycerin, C12-15, Alkyl Benzoate, Cyclopentasiloxane and Cyclohexasiloxane, Cetyl Ricinoleate, Cetearyl Alcohol and Cetearyl Glucoside, Pentylene Glycol, Hydrogenated Polydecene, Coffea Arabica (Coffee) Seed Extract, Dimethicone, Ceresin, Glyceryl Stearate, PEG-100 Stearate, Sodium PCA, Urea, Trehalose, Sodium Hyaluronate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Glycosphingolipids, Phospholipids, Cholesterol, Panthenol, Polyisobutene, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Citrus Grandis (Grapefruit) Fruit Extract, Silica, Alumina, Steareth-2, Triethanolamine, Polyacrylate-13, Magnesium Aluminum Silicate, Xanthum Gum, Polysorbate 20, Polyquaternium-51, Disodium EDTA, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, Titanium Dioxide (Cl 77891), Blue 1 (Cl 42090), Green 3 (Cl 42053), Yellow 5 (Cl 19140).

Revaleskin Intensive Recovery Treatment

Now if it turns out that you're another one of Amazons 4-5 star satisfied users, you can kick it up a notch with this product that boasts a full 1.5% coffee berry extract. Of course the prices get only higher as you work your way down the page, so a one ounce container of it sells for $130 on the companies main site.

Oh and you thought I was going to end on a posetive note? Guess again! My final gripe is that they should have just made all their products 1.5%. After all, if this stuff works and it appears that it probably does. Whats the big deal? Can the outer hulls from coffee berries be that expensive?

Actually it was several decades back, long before the health and anti aging related products community had even taken note of resveratrol that resv anti aging products reviews began to be compiled. This would be when it was noted that distinct groups of people such as the French, who regularly drank wine seemed to be being influenced by some anti aging substance.

The French Red Wine Health & Longevity Mystery

Scientists and medical researchers continually pondered just what it was in the wine drinking that consistently rendered these people so immune to common life shortening problems that afflicted those who didn't drink a few glasses of wine each day. After all, the French were noted for eating high fat foods.

The Very First Resv Anti Aging Reviews are Compiled

Then even after this substance was isolated out of wine, it was still some time before official clinically based resv anti aging reviews could be compiled. Expensive and time consuming tests and experiments had to ran and then the data carefully analyzed to insure that the final results would be accepted as valid by the global medical community.

In Italy Researchers Had Fish Living 59% Longer!

In some of the first formal scientific tests of resveratrol, it was common yeast cells that were found to live substantially longer when fed this curious new substance. However; the most stunning resv anti aging reviews were compiled after a series of laboratory experiments were conducted in Italy that had a species of small fishing living a full 59% longer when they had this new anti aging substance added to their diet.

Results From Human Resvaratrol Trials Could Take Decades

So of course the next step is human trials but there is one problem with tests of this sort. That is that humans live several decades, so it will be several decades at the least before resv anti aging reviews from these much more time consuming experiments can be compiled. In the mean time with no visible side effects as of yet having been observed, people around the globe who have seen the results of these animal experiments are beginning to buy and use resveratrol on a daily basis.

To tell the truth, if you're looking for unbiased reviews on the top rated anti wrinkle eye creams, what you may want to check into is a product put out by Kinerase that isn't even a cream at all. It's a spray called “Extreme Lift Eye” that with one pump per eye, delivers a consistent 80% user approval rating. Thats pretty much unheard of up till now, considering it costs around $100 per unit.

Whats even more outrageous about his new crows feet eliminator is that it promises to deliver visible results in five minutes! You read that right! It's five minutes which really does sound like a crock of bull until you find out that this product was featured on NBC's Today Show for one simple reason. That reason is that it actually does deliver visible results in just five minutes!

Theres Definitely No Natural Ingredients In This Stuff

However; if your in the market for a “natural” anti wrinkle product, don't look to this one. Thats because it's ingredients list reads like a chemists wish list. Also while its makers claim that it functions by increasing collagen production, which it may in deed do on the long term, there can be no doubt that with such short term results theres more to it then that.

Definitely a Short Term Solution Product

What this means is that it can be safely assumed that the five minute results most likely are brought on by one of the powerful active ingredients in this product causing micro-fibers and or muscles in the skin itself to flex. thus pulling the wrinkles apart. Either way, for someone who isn't above going the temporary chemical route, this product is well worth checking out

Did you know that research scientists have finally actually achieved the long sought after goal of increasing the life span of lab test animals. Sure it's been common knowledge for years that certain foods could make you die younger and some would help you to live longer. However; this is an all together new milestone, in that they have achieved the goal of actually effecting biological clocks. The first baby steps towards eternal life!

The First Steps Towards Discovering How To Extend Life

It was discovered that there is an as of yet to be isolated “life extending gene” that lays dormant in every living mammal. However; once this dormant gene is “awakened” it overrides the other genes that determine your life span. So how have research scientists managed to awaken this gene and cause laboratory test animals, such as mice and Reuses monkeys to outlive their parents by 30%? They've done this by raising them on low calorie diets. Simply giving them less food to live on each day.

Using Resveratrol To Actually Extend Life By As Much As 30%

Sound a little bit too simple? Well get ready because it's about to get more complicated. Thats because in the mean time, in other unrelated life extension experiments, scientist were able to duplicate the exact same results without food denial. The same behaviors, the same life extension, same everything! All by simply feeding their lab animals a substance known as resversatrol. A powerful anti oxidant found in grape skins and most notably red wine.

20 Year Best Anti Aging Products Review Study Finally Yields Definitive Answers

You have to understand that the scientists doing the food denial-low calorie experiments had been compiling data for over twenty years, the average lifespan of a Reuses monkey, which were their test animals. Hence; they had progressed much further then the “oh wow” stage of their studies and had begun to actually close in on some definitive answerers, such as the discovery of this dormant “life extension” gene.

Two Entirely Different Studies Deliver Very Similar Results

Meanwhile the scientists studying the effects of resveratrol had only been conducting their experiments on lab mice for a few years so they were lingering stuck in the “oh wow” phase after seeing the life stretching results of their experiments. However; it was by chance that researchers from the two study groups met and were shocked to see such similarities in the results of their two entirely different experiments. So the next question was, does resveratrol also awaken this dormant “life extension gene”?

What About the Best Anti Aging Products Review - Is Resveratrol Key?

What about a diet high in low calorie foods and high in resveratrol rich foods? Can the combination of these two factors in fact double the life “extension gene “ awakening effect that these two groups of research scientists achieved?. The fact is that human studies are now ongoing but will take decades to conclude due to the much longer life span of humans. However the good news is that preliminary data gathered matches that in the test animals. Same behaviors same effects from resveratrol and calorie denial!
