Almay Kinetin

Almay Kinetin Anti-Wrinkle Booster Serum claims to reduce fine lines by 45%, even skin tone by 47%, and improve skin texture and smoothness by 77%. It was created by Almay, a company that every American has likely heard of and has been in business since 1931. It contains active ingredients including kinetin and gluconamide. You can find this product and others manufactured by Almay online and at most drug stores across the United States.

Price: $25/0.3 oz bottle

There are a few big positives associated with the Almay Kinetin Anti-Wrinkle Booster Serum. First of all, they have a big name behind them, which proves significant to many individuals, because it established a history. Second, as an established company, Almay does not test on animals. Many of its competitors continue to test on animals despite evidence that animal test results are often not at all compatible with human tests. Third, all Almay products, including kinetin products, are hypoallergenic and fragrance free. Finally, Almay in general is highly accessible both online and in local drug stores across the United States. It is also slightly cheaper than some of its competitors at $25 for a 0.3 oz bottle. While the company of Almay is well established, Almay Kinetin is not. First of all, they do not provide a full list of ingredients, they only reveal a couple ingredients that are not effective in the treatment of wrinkles. They focus on kinetin as their main and prize ingredient, because it has been clinically proven by the center for anti-aging and health consulation based in the Taiwan University hospital to reduce wrinkles by 41%, improve evenness by 16.3%, reduce pores by 15.9%, reduce facial spots by 6.8%, increase moisture by 16.7%, and reduce abnormal skin redness by 10% over a period of 12 weeks. But all of these results were contingent on the kinetin being combined with niacinimide. When tested by themselves, kinetin and niacinimide showed no results above that of a placebo. The Almay kinetin formula, needless to say, does not contain niacinimide. This product is only sold through third party retailers, which means it does not come with a money back guarantee of any kind. There are also no customer testimonials related to this product on the almay website or any third party website at this time.

In positive terms, Almay has a long history of pleasing enough customers to not only stay afloat, but to become one of the most popular brands in the United States. However, when it comes to Almay Kinetin Anti-Wrinkle Booster Serum, your faith and money would be better placed elsewhere. They implement descent policies and use at least one ingredient that has been clinically proven. But that one ingredient’s clinically proven status is contingent on combination with another ingredient the makers of Almay do not include. With the addition of niacinimide to their product as well as customer testimonials, a full ingredients list, and clinical trials to the Almay website, Almay Kinetin Anti-Wrinkle Booster Serum may very well be an appealing option in the war against the common signs of aging. But without those applications, I’m afraid Almay Kinetin is just another grocery store quality product worth no more than $5-$10.
