strivectin?

    I'm getting a number of requests from Irish women friends of mine to send them over the generic form of strivectin which is considerably cheaper here in the states and very available. From what I have gathered there is not much differnce between strivectin and its generic counterparts.

    While I don't mind doing this for them, I'm curious as to the long term or up the road effects that it might have on the skin or the body. Is it more a maintenance chemical or will it actually get you permanent results?

    Thanks in advance.

    I know little about this product, but there is a lot of snake oil out there in the beauty industry.

    There is reference to an anonymous trial(s) that 93% improvement in wrinkles is possible, but no single referral is published in the website purveying this - which would occur with other pharmaceutical products. Snake Oil.

    Things in general are cheaper in the USA, but remember that is may not be legal to possess in the EU unless it has passed the European Commision on safety - also remember there is 30% import duty as well to contend with.

    Long term effects can only be judged in the long term and as a new product, you can only speculate of the effects.
