Introduction & Overview |
Amatokin® Anti Wrinkle and Anti Aging by Voss Laboratories is said to be “the future of skin rejuvenation.” Furthermore, Amatokin® promotional literature contains numerous allusions to stem cells. As such, many of us may wonder why a cosmetics company would wish to claim that they use “cutting-edge stem cell technology,” when stem cells have not really been used for such purposes. In fact, stem cell research is still not legal in the United States.
Thus, to many of us, believing in a manufacturer that comes up with such seemingly incredulous claims may be quite a step. Furthermore, Amatokin® products may not have the best price to size ratio; also, as of this review, the manufacturer does not seem to offer a really attractive return and refund policy. Therefore, we will take a look at Amatokin® Anti Wrinkle and Anti Aging to conclude whether it may really offer the wonderful benefits it promises.

| Products at a Glance |
As mentioned above, the basic claim about the product seems to be the purported “cutting edge stem cell technology.” However, the official websites, of which there are at least two as of this review, do not explain at length what they mean by such a strong statement. In any case, the products are: Amatokin® Emulsion for the Face, Amatokin® Eye Cream Single and Amatokin® Skin-Rejuvenating Serum.

| Products in Focus |
Some of the ingredients in the formula are as follows: Neopentyl Glycol Dicaprylate/Dicaprate, Yeast Extract (Faex), Silica, Glycerin, Hydrolyzed Soy Protein, Cetearyl Alcohol, Tridecyl Trimellitate, Glycereth-26, Glyceryl Stearate, Cetyl Alcohol, Dimethicone/ Divinyldimethicone/Silsesquioxane Crosspolymer, PEG-100 Stearate, Polypeptide 153 and others clearly listed on their website. Actually, the total number of ingredients tops at more than 35.
In any case, the product lacks fresh Collagen, which is the main connective tissue in our body responsible for developing new tissues, especially skin tissues. Nevertheless, we believe there are skin creams with Collagen that genuinely hydrate the skin, reduce line formations, increase the elasticity of the skin tissue and make us feel great without having to spend a lot of money.

We believe that the manufacturer could have gained our trust more if their official website explained what they mean by their controversial statement about using cutting-edge stem cell technology. But, as mentioned above, the issue with Anti Wrinkle and Anti Aging is that its effects may not be anything remarkable. As such, it may appeal to those willing to buy their incredulous claims. However, we believe that the industry already has fantastic creams that get to work from within for healthier, fresher looking natural skin.

| Positives |
• Topical applications with official online presence
|
| Negatives |
• Does not contain proven ingredients, like Collagen and Sodium Hyaluronate
• Official manufacturer website does not explain ingredients at this time
• No online testimonials on the product as of this review
• Return and refunds not clearly listed and explained
• Is claimed to use latest “stem cell technology,” which we find unjustified
|
| Final Thoughts |
Therefore, we believe Amatokin® may not really be worth a trial. For one thing, we are disappointed by the lack of information on the ingredients used. Furthermore, while the product has an official online presence, the website may not provide much information. At this time, the manufacturer fails to list extensive testimonials and links to research and studies on the ingredients.
It is without a doubt that some anti-aging and anti-wrinkle creams may work wonders. However, it may be difficult to choose the best product available, since the market is saturated with many mediocre products. Therefore, we believe the best way to go about it may be to first look at the ingredients. Secondly, women may wish to look at the prices. Thirdly, testimonials and effective media coverage on a product may be a good way to gauge a product’s effectiveness. Fourthly, those with an attractive return and refund policy, whereby even an opened container may be returned, may be worth a trial.
