To me, that states that we absolutely believe in our product, and we are confident that our customers will love it as well.
@ngarayeva001 That is why I am so curious why people don’t just return it.Btw @Ngarayeva001, you are correct! My product is everything I claim it to be and no one has ever returned my product. I would like to know how you gained that information. Also @ngarayeva001 why did you use hashtags in your first post in this thread? Did you read the terms and agreement section when you chose to join this forum?@Ngarayeva001
Hello All,
I recently found this product https://sabrina-beauty.com/the-science/ with a pretty generic ingredients list (except for misspelling “tocopheryl acetat”). The manufacturer is making really bold claims about using “nano-size collagen” that “penetrates” through stratum corneum and “rebuilds lost collagen”. I am staying more than sceptical, but very curious about the opinion of the professionals on this forum. What are your thoughts on ingredients like this “nano” collagen and ultra-low molecular weight hyaluronic acid? I understand that skin is a natural barrier and this product won’t restore lost collagen, but is it worth it to pay more for ingredients with lower molecular weight?
Thanks in advance!

@SJane I see lots of Marketing, no Science.I have never seen a prohibition on the use of hashtags. I have never seen the moderator delete a post for this reason. @Perry?Could you address;- The manufacturer is making really bold claims about using “nano-size collagen” that “penetrates” through stratum corneum and “rebuilds lost collagen”.
- “Collagen Rx Plus uses Nano Technology to shrink the Collagen Molecule so it can easily be absorbed into the skin.”
These are unauthorized drug claims. -
I probably missed something about hashtags. @SJane, I am sure your product is an excellent product 🙂 You have a right to believe in it, and we have a right to stay sceptical. There is no legit study that proves that topical collagen does anything except for moisturising skin. If you can provide that study I, and I am sure everyone in this forum, will be happy to change our opinion. But going back to the claims, what is the size of your collagen in dalton?
-
@SJane Believe me, the FDA monitors claims and will intervene. I would look at your claims before you get a warning letter.

@SJane, @ngarayeva001, @Microformulation - There is no prohibition on hashtags on this forum. Of course, if they become annoying we might start removing them but it’s not a problem at the moment.
I’m curious what is meant by “the terms and agreement section” on this forum. Where was this found? -
@SJane confidence in the product is a great thing to have, why would the customer believe you if you do not believe it. However none of your available “Science” is proper.
As it is mentioned earlier - Nano does not refer to the size of a molecule but the size of a particle (or agglomerate of particles). With that said it is also impossible to shrink a molecule.

I bought the Christie Brinkley trial cream, we came out in a rash & it was so hard to send it back, the return shipped cost almost as much as the cream. It is a scam!!!!!!
-
Oops, they corrected tocopherol acetate correctly. Good job, SJane!
-
Yes, but they have other errors in the INCI Deck.Advance Moisture Complex is not an approved designation.“Marine Collagen” is not the approved nomenclature.
-
I might be missing something but tocopherol acetate is a second ingredient. Is there any reason to use it at a concentration higher than 0.5%?
-
Probably the only material above 1% is water.
-
No Vitamin E is usually used at 1% so they may have written the INCI names in the wrong order?
-
Oh wow! I think you are right @”Dr Catherine Pratt” . It didn’t even came to my mind, I thought it’s just a weird formulation. Now I noticed that other ingredients are also not in descending order! It’s very unlikely that they added more hyaluronic acid than dimethicone and emulsifiers.
