Introduction & Overview |
Remede® Skin Care is a line of beauty products marketed as high-quality anti-aging formulas and general skincare products. The company says the formulas contain “high-performance ingredients combined to reactively and proactively repair and reenergize skin.” The purported benefits include reduced appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and sagging skin.
There may be so many different skincare products to choose from these days – there may actually be thousands of competing anti-aging formulas on the market – that many women may feel overwhelmed and confused about what to look for in a quality product. We will get a closer look at this company’s items to see if they may offer any substantial benefits.

| Products at a Glance |
There are dozens of skincare products in the company’s product lineup at time of review, including some of the following: Soft Focusing Lotion, Eye Energy Duo, Anti-Aging/Oil Control duo, Rosacea Retreat Set, The Time Killer Set, Super O2 & Skin Exacting Mask Set, Lift Intense Kit, Age Minimizing Hand and Chest Set, Liquid Facelift and Liquid Face Lift Kit.
The Anti-Aging/Oil Control Duo is marketed as capable of reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, while being “incredible for clogged pores, blackheads and excess oil.” But, we are disappointed that the company does not elaborate on what it is specifically meant to do at time of review. Also missing at time of review is a full list of ingredients.

| Products in Focus |
The company says to call the customer service hotline to find out the ingredients of these products, but this may be more inconvenient for an individual than would seem to be necessary. Many women may wish to get most of their research online; having to call the company for a list of ingredients for each product may not be efficient.
The Alchemy Premium Night Cream also seems to be positioned by the company as one of its more heralded products, but a closer look at the formula may not be as impressive as the hefty price tag (about $155 for a 1.7-ounce jar) may indicate. Ingredients may include: Phytokine, Sodium Hyaluronate, Grapeseed Extract and Vitamin A.

| Lifestyle |
We note that the majority of the company’s products appear to be priced in the $100s, $200s and up for average-sized jars and bottles. This may not pose a problem for well-heeled individuals, but this may be a stretch for those of us who do not wish to bust our wallets to achieve younger-looking skin. The prices may be comparable to a BOTOX® injection.
We are also disappointed that most of the products do not seem to be backed up by a large number of consumer testimonials. Each product may have one or two posted on the website – and even these appear to be inconclusive. On the other hand, some of the higher-end products marketed by reputable companies may be backed by a generous supply of success stories.

| Final Thoughts |
Remede® Skin Care may be marketed as one of the foremost skincare brands on the market, but we are not particularly impressed by the formulations. At over $200 for some products, we would expect the ingredients to be special. It turns out that many of the ingredients may be found in more affordable skincare products marketed to a mainstream audience.
Many women may find that money-back guarantees are convenient, especially when they are unsure about how a product may perform simply by reading advertisements and product descriptions. Some companies offer full refunds even if the product has been opened. Unfortunately, the company in question may not offer refunds in any shape or form at this time. The most desirable product may be one that provides a money-back guarantee, customer testimonials and advanced ingredients.
