Mineral Fusion Skin-Balancing Moisturizer Review
Manufacturer’s Claim
This is a review of a product called Mineral Fusion Skin-Balancing Moisturizer. The manufacturer claims that this product will restore supple and youthful skin; leaving a more balanced, smoother, and softer complexion. However, could this product be the most reliable anti-aging moisturizer available on the market? From the product formula to customer service, we look at all aspects of this product to answer that question.
Formula
- Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice
- Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil (Vitamin E)
- Vegetable Glycerin
- Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter)
- Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-3
- Tocopherol (Vitamin E)
- Panthenol (Vitamin B5)
Aloe Leaf Juice is a soothing ingredient, supporting the regeneration of skin cells as well as repairs damaged skin. The formula has 2 sources of Vitamin E which retains the skin’s moisture, diminishes the appearance of scars, and is rich in antioxidants to support more youthful-looking skin. Glycerin hydrates skin, Shea Butter nourishes skin, and Vitamin B5 soothes skin; therefore, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-3 stimulates the production of collagen, promoting the plumpness and firmness of skin while promoting younger-looking skin. This formula, although containing many beneficial ingredients, is lacking the support of patented ingredients. These third-party tested and clinically proven ingredients provided targeted relief; such as collagen-boosting Trylagen PCB or wrinkle-reducing Argireline NP; therefore adding peace of mind that the product will be effective. In saying so, the lack thereof may suggest that the efficacy of this product is limited and may not measure up to competing brands on the market. Although this product is vegan and hypo-allergenic, there is no GMP certification to state that market-standard practices were used during manufacture. This is a concern.
Instructions
Mineral Fusion offers little information on how to best use this product, simply stating that one should smooth the cream onto clean skin in the morning and evening. They do not recommend how much to use per application or suggest methods of application to deliver optimal results. Furthermore, there is no precaution of use. As there are no indications of the ingredient concentrations, we cannot assess the product’s strength and potential efficacy.
Cost
A 3.4 oz bottle of Mineral Fusion Skin-Balancing Moisturizer retails for $22.99 on the manufacturer’s website. The lack of instructional information makes it difficult for us to determine the lifespan of each product, so we are uncertain of the value of each unit for this price. There are no discounts or package offers available to promote long-term use.
Guarantee
Mineral Fusion offers a 30-day guarantee on their products, which includes partially used and tested products. This is positive to note and meets the market standard level of customer service, although, leading brands do offer a 90-day period for refunds – surpassing this guarantee substantially. This may suggest some level of confidence in the products ability to fulfill on the manufacturer’s claims, however, the many negative customer reviews would make you believe otherwise. There were complaints of customers experiencing negative side effects while others noted that the product delivered no noticeable results. This is a concern.
Mineral Fusion Skin-Balancing Moisturizer Review – The Bottom Line
This product claims to restore supple and youthful skin, hosting a range of beneficial ingredients that could support this product in fulfilling the manufacturer’s claims. That being said, these claims may only be partially fulfilled as the product formula is missing a range of important aspects such as ingredient concentration, GMP certification, as well as the support of patented ingredients. The instructions and guarantee are vague, the value of each bottle is uncertain for the price paid, and there are many negative customer reviews that raise concerns as to the efficacy of this product. Therefore, we feel that this product is not the most reliable anti-aging moisturizer available on the market and do not recommend Mineral Fusion Skin-Balancing Moisturizer as a wise purchase choice.
