I'm so impressed by their claims that I think I will have to try it. I am one of those women that just don't seem to see results. My skin is resistant or something weird going on. So the 100% result is enticing.
In case you want to try this new product by aveeno, you can go to their web site aveeno.com and print out $5 off coupon, and $10 rebate for purchases made by 5/31/10. I printed out 2 sets of these.
I want to try the eye cream. I'm starting to see fine lines under the eyes.  sad face!
I also want to try the night cream. Can this be used on top of HQ 4% cream and retin-A though? Does anyone know?
They also got the day cream with SPF 30 I think. It's $45 each (per walgreens.com), so to buy all 3, it'd be pretty painful. I think I will try just eye cream and night cream first. |

| I'm pretty sure Rileygirl tried the eye cream and was not one of the lucky 100%. |

I suspect I'd also be alongside rileygirl outside of the 100%. Does that mean we don't actually exist, since we'd be in the 0% of unlucky people?  
It's worth trying, Natalyn, particularly since you've got some money-off vouchers, but I'm really sceptical about claims like this. You must let us know, though if you're one of the lucky one!  |

Yep she did and as I recall it caused her eyelids burning!
Count me in on the nonexistent 0% I haven't found an eye cream that does anything good for my eyes yet.  |

You would be correct! It didn't work for me, but then again, I haven't found anything yet that does!! |

Anyone else tried the Aveeno Active Naturals products or perhaps the Neutrogena Clinicals one which is supposed to be similar?
Both products claim to generate a small current, which is created when [positively-charged] zinc and copper pass a [negatively-charged] electron between them. The skin responds to this increase in electrical energy by naturally producing more collagen and elastin. It's an intriguing idea...I just wonder if anyone at EDS has found that it works?
Both products are reasonably priced. Around $30 USD for a "system" which includes a serum or concentrate and a cream.
Futurederm had a good review on Aveeno at: http://www.futurederm.com/2010/04/18/product-launch-of-the-year-aveeno-ageless-vitality-rejuvenating-skin-treatment/
I'm tempted, but not sure I can fit any more products into my routine |

| Thanks GirlieGirl, doesn't sound like too many have tried them. The reviews I also saw on drugstore.com were so-so. |

| Bummer! I thought it sounded too good to be true. What skincare products actually work with 100% of people? How can they make a claim like this? Isn't that false advertising? |

It is possible; IF they select a small group of women who do not EVER use skin care! If these women are 30+; I am sure they would see results if they never cleanse properly or moisturize, etc. JMHO |

| Unscrupulous! That's not a real study then if they select the population like that. I am not that impressed with Aveeno skincare products so far. I bought a sunscreen and it burned my eyes. |

I took a bunch of media and advertising classes in university and we had to study the history or cosmetics companies and how ads are worded (among other stupid things
And one thing is if their ad just says "100% of women saw results"
It could be they had bad results,because even if the cream does just moisturize and they used nothing before that is a "result"
I find a lot of times the cosmetics (and other)companies they way they word stuff can be very deceiving 
or as an other example. the Pantene ads,they say that their products make hair stonger and more "protected" or whatever,
but at the bottom of their ad it says "vs not using conditioner". |

| This is typical advertising. It worked for the *100% they used in the study* which were most likely older women who used nothing previously. This makes their "claim" valid. |

I've been using the day cream with chemical SPF 30 (for about 3 months), the night cream(for a week), and the biomineral concentrate (3 months):
http://www.aveeno.com/facialcare/vitality/day-spf30
and
http://www.aveeno.com/facialcare/vitality/night
An article here:
http://www.futurederm.com/2010/04/18/product-launch-of-the-year-aveeno-ageless-vitality-rejuvenating-skin-treatment/
I can't find the list of ingredients online, but the products have some antioxidants and sunscreen (day cream). I got both kits because they were on clearance at Ulta, so I paid $40 for both day and night kits. I am thinking about trying the eye regimen as well.
While I can't attribute any miracles to the Aveeno products, they are nice moisturizers, that have not clogged my pores.
I am not sure about the benefits of the biomineral concentrate. I do not have deep wrinkles, only some barely visible fine lines on my forehead and around my mouth. I have combination, acne prone skin, and this has not made my skin worse. I do use a matifying primer on top of the moisturizer during the day though.
What I like best is that the day cream is SPF 30. |

| Cosmetic companies make a lot of claims. I'd examine everything before believing anything and especially before purchasing. |
