Skin Care Review: Almay Kinetin Skin Care

by Allison Bloom, Los Angeles, CA 90266

Rating
Satisfactory

Benefits
Nice moisturizer for users with dry skin

Drawbacks
Did not seem to change the appearance of fine lines

Details
I purchased this product because I was starting to notice fine lines around my eyes. I am 30 yrs old. It promised to reduce the depth of wrinkles by up to 50% after 8 weeks of usage. I have used it for 6 weeks and not seen much if any difference in the lines I was seeking to minimize. It is a nice moisturizer for people with dry skin (it is fairly thick, and almost greasy, but I have very dry skin so I prefer that to a thin moisturizer). The labeling does not state the concentration of the active ingredient (Kinetin), so I can't say if the level is high enough to be effective (0.1% is necessary). I am nearly out of the product (tube only lasted 6 weeks) and I don't intend to buy any more.

Conclusions
May work over a longer period of time, but more likely just an expensive moisturizer.

Price (paid by reviewer)
$26 (tube lasted 6 weeks)

Where to find it
Drugstore
