One of the most talked about and aggressively marketed product families on the market, if you haven’t heard about strivectin skin care and its claims of better then botox and magic stretch mark repair cream gone anti-aging skin care phenomena, chances are you will be very shortly.
But are the Strivectin Skin Care products really better then botox?
An alternative more then likely yes, with some stellar products and one that was surprisingly quite bad, I researched what customers had to say about the strivectin skin-care treatments, and whether or not it was all that it was cracked up to be or truly better then botox
One of the most popular and publicized anti-wrinkle products on the market, it seems everywhere you travel in the anti-aging website genre you are bound to run by strivectin SD quite quickly.
Heavily marketed as an alternative to botox, and with an own personal slogan stating “better then botox†one is quick to get interested in this treatment.
What we found through studies of 100’s of strivectin sd reviews across many retail and online stores where you can buy strivectin’s SD cream, was that although this product was among one of the highest rated and highly regarded treatments, it probably quite isn’t as potent as the actual botox injection for the quick action against wrinkles.
What is great about this treatment however, is it quite a bit more affordable, with the right information of course… Most places online are selling the strivectin 6oz SD tube for 200-250 dollars, with the beauty and specialists stores listing it at nearly $300.
However there are a couple places you can buy this much cheaper, most notable skinstore.com cost about $110 when we purchased it from there, and it is interesting to note that they don’t publish this price to the general public and require you to register for this product only, perhaps the head company distributing this product doesn’t want to discourage sales at other vendors for nearly twice or thrice the price.
If you have realistic expectations, and want a more affordable and cost effective alternative solution to a costly botox injection, this is without a doubt one of the most proven and reliable products on the market, with general feelings from the large majority of the crowd as it being a superior product in a sometimes shifty and untrustworthy anti-aging market.
Strivectin’s SD eye cream was the byproduct of one of the few common complaints of the original formula, mainly that many people whom had trouble in the eye area had reported minor irritation to the more delicate and sensitive under and beside eye skin.
Rather then tamper with the proven and hugely successful strivectin SD product, Klein Becker decided to push out a new one, more specifically for the sensitive and easily irritable areas that the highly potent and active ingredients found in the earlier original formula would cause slight irritation.
In a sense it is a more gentle application, with additional ingredients to help sooth the area, as well as less concentration of that which would cause the slight irritation in some people.
The result was a huge hit, and strivectin eye cream is becoming increasingly one of the most popular and respected treatments for those that specifically want a more gentle and easier to apply solution for more delicate and sensitive skin, as well as those that just want to target the eye and lip areas.
Although not quite nearly as popular as the normal SD solution, the general feeling and buzz of the dozens of strivectin sd eye reviews I used to get a basic understanding of this products true value, were all mostly incredibly positive, with the most common negative feedback relating to price. In the defense of strivectin’s sd eye cream however, I will point out that it last quite long if the application directions are to be followed, and the results seen for this versus the cheaper product probably work out to balance the cost for effect standard. (Would you rather pay $30,000 for a condo worth $20,000 or pay $200,000 for a mansion worth $500,000?)
Definitely looks to be a superior eye and lip specific product, but if you have normal and not too sensitive skin or these areas aren’t you’re main priority, the general factors show that the original strivectin SD would probably be a more suitable long term solution over the eye specific cream.
Marketed as a solution for deeper and more developed and hard to reach wrinkles, the feedback and customer strivectin HS reviews were quite negative and disappointing and no where near at the level of praise which SD and SD eye cream receive.
It seems like a good treatment for those of us that have really strong and dominant lines at first, but after doing some thorough research on this and the others, it is probably best that you stay away from it.
Customers from many different sources reported unimpressive results, feeling like they were misled by an over hyped product borrowing its incredibly worthy cousins name.
Whether this was a corporate attempt to squeeze out money from the brand popularity and truly effective products made before, or if it is just an incredible coincidence that this receives an incredibly much lower rating on a good % of the customer input I’m not sure, but I do recommend that if you are considering buying this, that you have reasonable expectations or stick with the more proven, highly acclaimed and customer satisfying Strivectin SD or SD eye cream products.
The last product in the strivectin skin care family is strivectin’s HC hand cream treatment.
This stuff has some of the most brilliant and ’stand above the rest’ type of reviews from any product I have ever studied into customer satisfaction. It truly seems like one of, if not the best solutions for people with troubling or unhealthy hand skin.
One of the most interesting product satisfaction case studies I have done yes, it is quite shocking to see such a large percentage of the feedback and customer Strivectin HC reviews being incredibly positive, while not naming price or other things as negative factors.
Perhaps the hand care product market is much different from the anti-aging, and maybe the majority of the medium priced treatments are all very satisfactory for people that need a good hand health solution… Whatever the case, the results were quite overwhelming, and I considered if perhaps my sources were biased even though I knew they were not (were talking independent individual users and customers spread out through various online retail giants where there is little to no chance for a company to inflate the positive reviews over real customer input)
If you have troublesome hands, and are looking for a medium priced product that is truly proven to satisfy the other used it, this is about as good as it gets, and I truly wish I could find such an overwhelming positive and beneficial product for my facial skin care… people looking for hand care products rejoice, there is a single proven and reliable method that seems to match almost everyone’s needs! It’s really too bad we can’t say the same about other products in various related beauty areas

1While I agree that these creams are not as effective has say a Botox treatments, they are an exceptional alternative.
I have been using the eye cream and the SD cream for about 4 months now, and the results are amazing. The lines I had around my eyes are virtually invisible, and the skin is almost strangely smooth.
I am so happy with the results and cannot see using much else, especially around my eyes.
