Hello Everyone,
I am a true believer in organic skin care as these type of products do the best for my extremely hypersensitive skin. Therefore, I don't really know where Cellcosmet products fits in. I know it is made with fresh cells and some natural products - but is it organic -natural - or what? I don't have the answer, but I did have a sample of the Ultra Cell. I was hesitant to use it on my skin but decided to live dangerously.
Well, am I glad I tried it. I used it on my face at bedtime. At first, looking at the vial, there seemed so little of the product inside that I thought there would not be enough to cover my entire face.
The vial is very easy to open. The product is of a watery consistency and sinks right into the face immediately. And, there's a miracle because this tiny amount of liquid in the vial is absolutely more than enough for the entire face.
I "immediately" saw an improvement in some of my dehydration lines. This has never happened to me before with any product where I got an immediate result. I never even believed in immediate results and anyone who every used that term was hyping it in my opinion.
After application, my skin really looked and felt fresh, a little more plump and those dehydration lines really seemed to disappear or lessen if we don't want to get too dramatic about the results.
The next morning my face was lovely. Fresh, dewey and not DRY. There was an immediate difference after just one application and this product comes in a set of 12 ampoules.
I highly recommend this product. I had no sensitivities or any kine of allergic reaction. I can't believe what just one vial did for me. I know this sounds like an exaggeration, but I'm not that type of person to overly estimate a product. I like to just call it as I see it.
If you can afford the 12 ampoules I do not believe it would be a waste of money. The product delivers what it claims to do.
I highly recommend this product. |

thanks for the review.
How are you supposed to use them? every night, as a special course or one off treatments? |

That is awesome
I find that when I use Ampules my skin loves them! Ampules are much more concentrated. It's amazing how the little vial goes such a long way.
Good for you leeleedeedee. |

I SO have these on my "to try" list.. right at the top.. but at CA$400-odd for the 12-days treatment, it is going to be a post-winter treat I think. |

Winnie, thank you! Cellcosmet are really awesome products.
Eve, you're supposed to use the 12 ampoules as a course of treatment several times a year.
These phials are described as "highly concentrated intensive treatments" - "dried out skin visibly improved" (that worked for me)
"gives firmness, new tone/better natural colour to skin" etc.
Tiger_Tim, yes they are expensive. No doubt about that. But they deliver what they promise.
Great stuff!! |

*digs through samples to find this*
Leeleedeedee- I read the first paragraph of your post and I laughed because this morning when I had a look at the forum and saw the topic of this post I had to do a double-take to make sure it was posted by you I'm not quite sure where Cellcosmet stands in terms of organic or natural products but I wouldn't have picked you as one to try it (I don't mean that in a bad way at all though ) due to your attachment to Dr Hauschka and organic oils.
I'm really glad it worked so well for you though - now to see if I have a sample of this... |

Mabsy - I decided to live dangerously and use a skin care product that was completely out of character for me. I think this happens when one turns fifty! :
Of course you're right - I am very attached to Dr. H. and everything I use is organic. Don't know where Cellcosmet fits in either but sometimes one needs to take a risk!
So, do you have a sample of this product? However, Mabsy, my thoughts are that you are far too young to need such an "intensive treatment." You can wait many more years before needing this product even though it is fantastic. |

Wow, sounds very interesting..especially to someone (me) with dry skin. I'll have to request a sample...do you know what the ingredients are? |

Sorry, I don't know the ingredients. I have a couple of Cellcosmet products but for some reason the ingredients are not listed anywhere. |

Someone from EDS told me that some of cellcosmet products contain mare's urine |

Hello thoughtcrime,
How lovely!! Well, can't say anything about that one since there's no list of ingredients.
It just makes me laugh at the wonderful possibilities of mare's urine on the face. Hope someone "in-the-know" can post on whether or not this is true.
Thoughtcrime, how knowledgeable do you think you source was? |

I, too, am very strict about using all natural and organic products (when I can find them). I can get terrible red and itchy swelling if I'm not careful. I've been digging around trying to find the ingredients to Cellcosmet products, and they are no where to be found. I hate to be the messenger of bad news, but if you have to look this hard to find them, they ain't natural. But, hey, if it works for you and you don't get a reaction, it probably isn't so bad! Let us know how it turns out. |

Chimera - it worked fine for me and I had no reaction at all. That's the weird thing because I have ultra - ultra - ultra sensitive skin. This product was kind to me and left my skin in a beautiful way!! Go figure.
P.S. The lack of ingredient list is suspicious, I do agree. I can only speak about the results. |

I checked and it turns out I have a sample of the Cellcosmet Elasto-Collagen ampules. This is listed as "for all skin types" though so I shall be trying this without feeling that I'm ahead of my time |

I really want to use it, but the money is not enough. Haha, it's expensive, but it should be very effective. |
