Never mix with other face creams
I am rather torn over how to rate this item. It seems to work very well for my husband, who has fairly deep lines at the corner of his eyes. You do have to be absolutely faithful about applying the product. It must be applied every day to see any results, and the company is very forthright about this. I did see a softening and lessening of his lines in the advertised month of use. It leaves a sheen, and if you use too much it reflects a bit pink, which can embarrass a male user!
For me, however- this product is not useable. I have to use an acne medicine to keep my greasier skin in check, and apparently mixing any sorts of cream near the Strivectin will cause an adverse reaction. The skin around my eyes became red and itchy and it resembled crinkled tissue paper. I was extremely alarmed by this, as my eyes only had very fine wrinkles at the corners, and I was simply looking to abate any further deepening. I do not have the option to quit treating my break-outs, so the eye cream was discontinued.
My recommendation is to try the cream on a completely clean face and see what happens for you over the course of a few days. If you do not have any reaction, continue for a month and I am sure you will see the promised lessening of lines. It's worth the money to try this, since one eye cream bottle is really only twice the money of one Oil of Olay eye cream, which merely moisturizes your skin, but does not get rid of the lines!

nothing special
As many other people I purchased this product expecting good results regarding firming and erasing wrinkles and I didn't see them at all.
Plus the fact that as somebody else said it smells horrible.
My personal recomendations with great results and for less money:
Redermic by La Roche Posay: is great to fill wrinkles,you just need to put a small ammount in the targeted area and you'll see!
And as a firming and moisturising cream:
Regenerist by Olay,smells great and is not sticky or greasy at all.
If you want to add a glowing look that erase sun or age spots,you'll be very pleased with Lumedia (but apply it before anything else).

My One-Month Trial
"Strivectin-SD is much less expensive than surgery, but it's not cheap. Finally, for maxium efficacy, StriVectin-SD must be applied three times a day, every day for 4-6 weeks....StriVectin-SD works, but you have to use it. So unless you're committed to getting rid of stretch marks, don't waste your time, your energy, or your money."
After months of thinking about an incredibly large skin care purchase, I splurged and purchased the StriVectin-SD cream. If you have ever gained and lost weight or have been pregnant, then you know that you can get stretch marks and they never seem to go away. How do you heal your skin so they literally disappear? Well, to start with, you need a cream that will produce dramatic results in a short amount of time. Especially as Summer is approaching.
I gave this cream a one-month trial. You need very little because this cream is very concentrated. It seems to increase the skin's thickness and firmness, therefore making the depths of indented surfaces much less apparent.
Results you should see in 4-6 weeks:
Decrease in the actual length of the stretch mark
Decrease in the depth of the indented surfaces
Increase in skin smoothness, thickness and firmness
What is actually occurring?
The cream stimulates glycosaminoglycan and collagen synthesis. It will also correct irregularities in skin coloration. The Peptide solution helps to thicken the skin.
How often did I apply this?
Just one to two times a day. At first I tried to apply the cream three times a day, but found it was easier to remember to put this cream on after a shower and/or before bed. It seems to work very well with only two applications a day.
You may also find yourself using this on your face or on areas where you want to see a decrease in wrinkles.
Not for use by pregnant or nursing women. Consult with your dermatologist before using this product. Do ask your doctor if this product is right for you and start using it as soon as possible after pregnancy/nursing. You will be amazed at the results after 1 month. My main reason for using this product was due to weight gain and monthly weight gain. It seems to have been very effective and I will continue using the product over the long term for maintenance.
The ingredient list is long (a proprietary combination of skin firming agents, elasticizers and hydrators) but some of the main ingredients include: Sesame oil, sweet almond oil, Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-3, Algae Extract, Coneflower Extract, Licorice, Cocoa Butter, Shea Butter, Mango Butter, Peppermint Oil and retinyl Palmitate.
This product has been clinically proven to dramatically reduce stretch marks and you will find many additional uses for this product. Is it better than Botox? I have never used Botox, but I can say there was a definite reduction in facial wrinkles after a month of use on two main areas of my face.
What else does this product promise? It will reduce acne scars, burn scars, chicken pox marks and scars from old injuries. If you are looking for even faster results, go to your local esthetician and have a microdermabrasion peel. That will help this product absorb better and you will see even faster results.
I also just found the Derma E Peptides Plus Double-Action Wrinkle Reverse Crème. It also has the Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-3 and is perfect for use on your face if you are allergic to nut oils like almond oil. Once you realize the benefits of this ingredient, you will start to recognize the name in many skin products.
I would love to see them make this product in an oil-free formula for oily skin or at least a formula you could use all over your face if you have oily skin. Use sparingly and you shouldn't have a problem and it is great for areas of dry skin.
I now enjoy using this product on my body and the Derma E Peptides Plus product on my face.
