Can someone tell why this ingredient so special & why it works so well. I'm also trying to find skincare with it (other than wexler) but I'm not having any luck. Thank you

I found that link. It seems like she may be the only one to use this technology in skincare. May I ask, why don't you want to use the wexler line? My mom has used the mmpi skin regenerating serum and liked it quite a bit.

I like it a lot too. I was hoping to find another source since Victoria's Secret charges 20$ for shipping. Aso, oddly enough, I like the texture of the serum but it makes it hard to layer. I was hoping to find something more easily absorbed.

Bliss has a new product with MMP inhibitors. I'm not sure if they're the same thing but, acccording to the blurb, act in the same manner as Wexler's MMPis.

This is interesting Marina. Can you tell me what it is about the texture you don't like? Does it ball up? Is the Niacyl study the same that was referenced by the NIA24 people? Full of questions today arn't I? Smile

I'm not sure about the science..the texture is like silicone..pink silicone..it doesn't ball up, leaves a lovely finish. It's absorbed, but it's there..I don't know how to explain it. Anyone with oily skin or even previously oily instinctively run away from silicony feeling products. I like the ingredients & definitely noticed a difference while I was using it...but why can't anyone put this stuff in a serum (a true serum)? If it was the only product I would use, then it probably wouldn't be an issue.


Kimber, who ever said pilates is easy should try to force their bodies in a 'V' position and then talk to me. I can't get my back off the floor Embarassed I won't get into the 'tweezers'

Thanks Marina. I might run over to Bath and Body and take a look at the product.

LOLOL. The Teasers are challenging. I always get an occasional excited phone call or email when someone does them for the first time. Remember Marina, there are modifications you can do to help yourself work up to those more challenging exercises. I'm sure with preseverence I'll get a PM someday telling me you've done it! Go Marina Go.
