RoC Skin Care® Overview

Most of us care about how we look. If we did not care, we would not take the time to choose clothes, get our hair cut or perform various other perfunctory duties. When it comes to the issue of skin care, many people would like to have smoother, younger looking skin. So, the question becomes whether there is a skin care product or company that is able to offer such benefits. The following review will discuss the potential benefits RoC® Skin Care products.

Ingredients At A Glance

Rather than offer just a few products RoC® provides a veritable smorgasbord of creams, lotions, and cleansers. These products utilize a number of relatively common skin care substances such as cetyl alcohol and glycerin. One particularly interesting ingredient is called DMAE (short for dimethylethanoloamine).

Ingredients In Focus

Moisturizers play an important role in skin care products. This almost goes without saying. Whether the moisturizing agents utilized by RoC® (i.e. glycerin, Shea butter, et al) are the best may be a question that is up for debate. It should be noted that some of the ingredients which might be considered moisturizing agents (i.e. hydrogenated vegetable oil) could be considered questionable choices.

Cetyl alcohol is an ingredient that is known to promote a feeling of softness when applied to the skin. Its value for long-term skin improvement seems unclear.

DMAE might be considered a promising substance when it comes to promoting skin smoothness. It seems that DMAE has shown some potential to inhibit the development of wrinkles.

When it comes to ingredient lists, RoC’s® most glaring miscalculations might be their failure to utilize ingredients such as Matrixyl 3000, Argireline, and Hyaluronic Acid.

Positives

- Potentially wrinkle-inhibiting DMAE used in a few RoC® products

Negatives

- Some ingredient blends contain potentially questionable ingredients

- None of the products utilize Hyaluronic Acid, Argireline, or Matrixyl 3000

- Online purchasing not facilitated

- Long list of products

Final Thoughts

Nobody wants to spend their money unwisely. This is especially true when it comes to buying a product that is geared toward bodily care and maintenance. As for the skin care product line offered by RoC®, there seems to be some disparity between their desire to offer comprehensive products and their neglect of ingredients like Matrixyl 3000, Argireline, and Hyaluronic Acid. These substances may be the most effective means for promoting healthier looking skin by increasing collagen production, inhibiting wrinkle development, and improving skin elasticity.
