Botox creams’ v Botox – Half Face Test
In this video, Alice Hart-Davis tests three different anti-wrinkle serums that claim to offer Botox-like effects without the need for injections.
Here’s a detailed breakdown of her experience and the products she tested:
Product 1: Bio Chillin
Claims: The serum is said to freeze wrinkles, providing a Botox-like effect, and is rumored to be used by Kate Middleton and Michelle Obama.
Ingredients: Contains hyaluronic acid for moisturizing and plumping the skin.
Application: Alice applies one pump of the serum to her clean, dry face, particularly focusing on her forehead and eye area.
Initial Impressions: The serum feels like a light, watery gel. After an hour, Alice doesn’t notice any significant difference in the movement of her face or the appearance of her wrinkles.
Product 2: Rodial Snake Serum
Claims: Contains Syn-Ake, an ingredient derived from snake venom, intended to freeze facial muscles and reduce wrinkles.
Application: Alice applies the serum to one side of her forehead and around her eye.
Results After One Week: The side treated with Botox shows significant smoothness, while the side treated with the snake serum shows no noticeable effect.
Product 3: The Ordinary Argireline Solution 10%
Claims: Argireline is a peptide that interferes with nerve impulses, preventing muscle movement and thus reducing wrinkles.
Application: Alice applies the serum, which is a very runny liquid, to one side of her forehead and around her eye.
Expectation: Alice is hopeful based on clinical studies from 2002 showing some effectiveness in muscle relaxation and wrinkle reduction.
Conclusion
Alice’s testing reveals that:
Bio Chillin and Rodial Snake Serum did not show noticeable results in reducing facial movements or wrinkles.
The Ordinary Argireline Solution 10% is the last serum she is testing, with hopes of seeing some muscle relaxation based on past clinical evidence.
