Hello - can anyone here give a little feedback on the Beta-Alistine products. I've used the Line Delete Treatment/Moisturiser for a few weeks but it's hard to tell if there really is a difference other than softer skin, I do not see it helping with fine lines. Is it worth keeping up with in preventing premature aging? I'm in my late 20's.
It's odd, the products have recieved hyped up press comments and have been "clinically proven" but I would more like some testimonals from long-term "real-life" users - and they seem very rare (!) cruising the internet. Thanks in advance for any comments.

I used this product line when they first came out. I used it for about a month and it broke me out very quickly. I tried to persevere but really did not see any benefits from the products.

Thanks Bushy for the comments!
I see why there exists little "real" customer feedback! Smile
I do not break out from the products, but I get a little puffy and it does NOTHING for the lines so far so I'm quite sceptical at this point. Anyone else have tried this?
ANY (good/bad) feedback welcome!

Thanks Carolb69. Some report about a "warm feeling" when applied as if one would experience a histamine release - I'm just very curious if it has done anything for the fine lines used long-term. I notice a warmth in my face as well but is this just an "allergic" reaction or really the effects of a useful product - my lines are still there.

I noticed a warm feeling when using the face cream but my skin didnt seem irritated by it. As for reduction in fine lines I havent got any on my face(except a couple around the eyes) so I cant give feedback there-sorry!
I noticed my skin felt firmer though.
I've been using the rocket science eye cream for a year and it hasnt reduced my lines,which dosent really bother me yet as they're not bad.I just like that the area feels firmer and dosent crease so much which would help in the long run to stop lines forming.
So if your looking for something to reduce lines it may not be what you're hoping for.
I do know one thing the product line seems tocost alot more overseas than here in australia!I think so anyway because i saw it on a english website once and couldnt get over what they were charging!

Ew, so much for that anti-aging revolution. Smile
Plumping skin will not delete any lines?

Yeah, when my skin starting feeling firmer I thought for sure it would have a noticable effect on the lines but it hasnt Confused Considerating their big claims it increases collagen 500% you'd think it would.

I have been using Beta-Alistine off and on for ages. The beta-alistine or carnosine breaks crosslinks in the skin so makes it soft and flexible again. This is miracle stuff. Also prolongs the life of cells and lets them divide more times before stopping. It also rejuvenates old cells to look and behave like young ones.
My mum at 86 actually used it and was amazed it worked.
My boy uses it because at 15 he saw it working and will keep his skin young.
Chanel has avery expensive new cream which breaks the crosslinks to make skin less leathery but does not rejuvenate.
Estriol cream (online, ebay) protects against mutations and if you are over 35 might be the go too. It thickens skin. Brilliant for old bags too.

I got my mother and sister the Beta Alistine eye cream for xmas just gone, and my mum swears by it, and trust me she doesnt like or use many skincare products. This one also didnt irriate her eyes, which are extrememly sensitive. My sister also likes this alot but is not religious in using it, I sometimes wonder if I am actually related to those two Laughing
I have the eye serum and LOVE it, however like all my skincare I am not loyal to anything, but on that note it has been repurchased and will continue to be.
