strange product
After spending $85 on the product, I really dislike it. A few of the things that the website, ads, etc. tell you are true. It rolls on easily and neatly and the acetone smell/sting does go away after a few seconds. What they don't tell you is that it leaves a shiny, tight feeling, smelly film on your skin, that is really annoying to get off in the morning. I put it on my neck, back of my hands, and decolletage, and tried it two nights in a row.
Yes the acetone smell goes away, but the perfumey smell that lingers is not pleasant. (I am not overly sensitive to smells) To get it off you can either peel it (like sunburned skin) or rub cleanser or lotion on it. What you get are chunks of a white filmy skin, and its really gross and messy! I felt like I had to rub really hard to get it off, and that I was doing more damage to my skin than whatever good the product might do. (And yes I put on a thick moisturizer before I applied the roll-on, like they suggest you do for easy removal.)
I have done lots of web searches because I wanted more info. before applying this stuff to my face. What worries me is that most of the info I can find is either posted by Nucerity, or by someone who is selling the product. I'd like to read some information given by someone that isn't being paid by the company! Some of the things I was trying to find out were:
-does the company test on animals? I can not find a definite answer, and this is a big deal to me. I assume that means they do test on animals.
-what exactly are the ingredients? My friend told me the product was "all natural" but my searches on the individual ingredients came up with basically plastic and teflon, along with vitamin e, grapeseed oil, and acetone. One website even said that they do not include all ingredients on the label!!
Obviously lots of people love this product and I have read many glowing reviews about it. But for me, the smell, the annoying clean-up, the price, and the lack of information are a huge negative!
