DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, PAY THAT KIND OF PRICE FOR ANY COSMETIC PRODUCT! There is absolutely no reason for a product to be priced like that....except....to make the manufacturer large amounts of $$$$$$ off of an easily duped consumer base.
The most expensive raw material that I know of is priced at $2,000 per kilogram (1,000 grams). So, If someone were selling this material in a one once jar, it would truly cost $56.00!! BUT!! Keep in mind that all creams and lotions contain a LOT of water. Anywhere from 50% to about 70% of creams and lotions are water. So, now we would have to multiply the "active" ingredient price by about 40% because that the highest it could be loaded in the product. Now....the product should truly cost about $22.40!!! And all creams and lotions contain more than just the "active" which are all cheaper in price...so the real price should be much lower still.
This product probably cost far less than that to produce and manufacture. Cosmetic products should NEVER cost hundreds of dollars....EVER!
Don't be mislead by marketing hype, and "high prices" as a sign of very high activity. Even if this product is the most functional product on earth it still didn't cost them very much at all to product it.
Please note this.... and read the ingredients label to truly make the decision on whether or not to buy a product.
