Thanks, Alien. I found the follow-up columns much more interesting than the original.

That's why I like this forum so much - you can always get a dose of reality from forum members on the latest and greatest active/product. I happen to like hearing all viewpoints in a discussion.

However, none of the authors brought up the subject of control and regulation


I actualy emailed the author- and he admitted the same. There simply is no technology, or definative "control" with which to meassure efficacy

We should all remember we are consumers and they are the sellers,and yes there is no control or regulation in they industry,so we have to educate ourselves and keep informed.Just because a product cost an arm and an leg doesn't mean it will work,just because it looks good,smells good doesn't mean it will do a thing.There are no over night transformations or miracle cream that I know of,but they would like us to believe so.

No, I agree with you DarkMoon, I wish the big cosmetic houses would put out something like a "Technical Data Sheet" on the products that they sell, and skip the "spin marketing" altogether. The problem is, they wouldn't sell as much product that way. Nor would they continue to make the obscene profits that they do. Sure, the TDS would show scientific proof that something may work. But, then the meer mortals would read the ingredients list along with the loading levels, and realize that the whiz bang 1/4 ounce jar of cosmetic should really cost about $5.50 versus the $300.00 that they are charging in retail price!
