Introduction & Overview |
Evotique is advertised as an anti-wrinkle serum suitable for reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Like many other products on the market, it is marketed as a simpler, cheaper alternative to BOTOX®.
In fact, the website for Evotique even posts a chart comparing this product to BOTOX® injections; some of the purported benefits are that there are no known side effects, continued use is fairly affordable, no doctor appointments are necessary, and it may be used on all areas of the face and neck. Unlike BOTOX® injections that may cost $500 every few months, a bottle of this serum costs about $50.

| Ingredients at a Glance |
The formula for Evotique contains some ingredients that have been clinically proven to be effective. The formula contains Argireline® and Matrixyl® as its main active ingredients. Argireline®, or Acetyl Hexapeptide-3, is often considered a BOTOX® alternative, and Matrixyl® has been shown to restore the dermal matrix.
Additional ingredients include Coneflower to firm the skin, Vitamin C to improve elasticity and Grape Leaf for its antioxidant properties.

| Ingredients in Focus |
Argireline® has been shown to reduce fine lines around the face caused by facial expressions. As mentioned, it is often advertised as an alternative to BOTOX® injections, without the pain, cost or toxicity. Clinical studies have proven that Argireline® relaxes the muscle contractions and has no side effects.
Matrixyl® stimulates production of Collagen in the skin; Collagen production naturally depletes as the skin ages, causing the skin to thin and wrinkles to develop more easily.

| Lifestyle |
With the increased popularity of BOTOX® injections, women may have begun to consider options for firming the skin and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. As of yet, no permanent solutions exist, and even an expensive option like BOTOX® must be continued for desired results.
We believe women are wise to seek natural, less expensive options, and many currently exist. We like that this formula contains two proven ingredients, although we feel that overall, it still is lacking some crucial elements for protecting the skin and increasing firmness.

| Final Thoughts |
Evotique is marketed as an alternative method to BOTOX® for reducing facial wrinkles. By using the popular patented amino peptide formula, Argireline®, as its key active ingredient, the product may relax the facial muscles that may cause wrinkles during contractions. It does not appear to repair damaged skin or prevent the skin’s tissues from further harm, however.
A number of anti-aging products are on the market that contain effective ingredients for improving the skin. Some formulas contain antioxidants to protect the skin from free radicals, and some contain elements that boost Collagen production. Collagen is the compound responsible for maintaining the skin’s elasticity, and naturally depletes with age. For those concerned with increasing the firmness of the facial tissues, products that include fresh Collagen may be preferable. It may be a smart to look for those formulas that display a generous amount of customer testimonials, and provide a risk-free refund policy.
