I just got the Roc microdermabrasion kit
http://www.expresschemist.co.uk/Roc_Renewex_MicroDerma.html
It is supposed to help with cellulite, stretch marks and pigmentation on the body as well as use on the face to gently exfoliate dead skin. So i can't wait to be using this to tone up my skin and get rid of cellulite/stretch marks.... anyways this stuff is the worst money spent! It comes with a sponge for the massager where you dab the exfoliator onto the sponge and massage it into your body... well the sponge is wayy too soft and therefore too gentle to even do anything to get rid of cellulite. The massaging device is really shaky and left my hand feeling numb after mins.  |

| Write and complain as they would like feed back they are a very reputable company and things are expensive enough without not getting value. |

| Sorry it didn't work out for you. Can you return it from where you bought it? How disappointing to buy something with such promises and then it doesn't work as expected. |

I bought some EpidermXII for my sister in April. When she ran out, she went and bought the ROC until she can restock with EpidermX. She found the ROC kit to be very irritating and ineffective. When I looked at the ingredients, I could certainly see why! The crystals aren't alimina silicate like PSF or EpidermXII and the 2 first ingredients are harsh sulfates.
Ah well, at least she has something to use on her elbows and knees  |

I tried the other ROC products. They are really really expensive, but did not get the results that I am looking for... So women out there, please don't buy these ROC products!

| I have the Roc facial microdermabrasion kit. I think the tools is the same in the face and body kit but the sponge head is different. I wasn't impressed with it either. My hand felt numb too after I used it. I prefer to apply products by gently massaging with my hands. |

BCgirl;
I've used home microdermabrasion for five years now and it works well for me. I've also tried just about everyone's product and settled down with Donna Lisa's Microdermabrasion Cream because it is a the best value and I'm on a budget. It buffed off my crow's feet, evened out my color and disappeared the dark spots on my face.
Most of the makers of home microdermabrasion creams will tell you their product is good for stretch marks. No stretch mark product worked for me. My doctor told me there was only one non surgical way to reduce stretch marks and his advice was right on. I lost the weight I had come to accept as "inevitable middle age baggage" and do you know my stretch marks became narrowed down to really imperceptible lines. I can now do bra and panty print work with twenty somethings but it was pure determination, not any product, that did it.
