Best Moisturizer Review Score: 20/100
Well, we really tried to start off this review with an open mind. We just hate so much these deceptive “Free offer” wrinkle creams that end up tricking consumers into having their credit card charged on a monthly basis for a cream they thought they were getting for free. As I said… we tried to stay unbiased. I think we were successful in keeping an open mind when deciding if we liked Dermapril or not.
The cream comes in a pretty cool jar.. one of those airless pumps that are supposedly better at keeping the product uncompromised. Besides that, there wasn’t much good to say about Dermapril-sp.
The cream has Matrixyl 3000 in it. This is not the real Matrixyl, but a knockoff. Still, it’s a copper peptide, and the use of these breakthough ingredients in wrinkle creams and moisturizers has some document proof. The problem was, we did not see the same results as we have with other peptide based solutions. Perhaps the cream uses such a low concentration of the Matrixl 3000 to save money, that they basically render the cream useless.
When it comes to these “Forced Autoship” wrinkle creams, we like to see how fast they respond to the cancellation, if at all. We ordered the cream, and tried to use it and still get it returned in the 14 day trial period that you are given by them. The fact is, it is IMPOSSIBLE to get the cream and find out if it works in less than 14 days. It just isn’t possible. So, the “Free” trial is complete BS, because at the very least, you have to pay for the first shipment, which is $69.
We submitted our cancellation of the next shipment and we have not gotten another bottle sent to us. It appears like they followed the rules and discontinued billing us each month. However, we really went the extra mile.. emailing, phone calls, and a verification phone call the day after. Basically, if you’re not a person who orders wrinkle creams all the time like we do, you might end up getting hit on your credit card another time before you complete the requirements of cancelling this wrinkle cream.
I hope we’ve said enough here, to convince you that you should be cautious when ordering a wrinkle cream that does the “auto ship” like Dermapril. Our experience with the product itself was disappointing, but that is not the major concern here. Mainly, watch your credit card statements and make sure you are not getting drilled with a charge each month for a product you dont’ want.
