Genucel Reviews

When it comes to skincare and reversal of premature aging, the market presents to us the widest range of products that we could choose from. Some of the marketed products work, but others do more harm than good, denting your account balance, and stressing you out in the process. With stress as one of the main reasons for premature aging, we want to make sure that the products you buy are beneficial to your skin and your wellbeing.

Genucel is one of the skin care product lines that’s hit the market in recent days. The company’s put a lot into marketing the Genucel range of products, and the information out there is quite convincing. But before you place your order, how about a dive into exactly what you’re buying into – Is the product worth your money?

What is Genucel?

Genucel represents a plant-based, stem-cell eye, and skin treatment solution, claiming to significantly reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines around the eyes. It’s also said to reduce the puffiness of the eyes and the bags under the eyes.

Genucel is a product line by Chamonix, and it said to be one of their tested products with anti-aging benefit. The products sold by Genucel have been developed using Chamonix’s Plant (Swiss Apple) Stem Cell Technology. There also are other ingredients included in the products.

According to Genucel’s manufacturer, their most powerful formulations could help interested individuals attain their wildest dreams including the reduction of puffiness and the eye bags under the eyes, as well as a smoother, brighter, and a rather youthful complexion.

The most interesting bit, however, is that the Genucel range of products has been formulated in such a way that ensures the delivery of results in under 12 hours for both sexes. Unbelievable, don’t you think?

Well, a glance of the Genucel website reveals a wealth of information about the Genucel range of products and how they’d help you. Unfortunately, most of the information shared is a bit complicated for most people, but we’ll try to simplify things for you.

What’s in the Genucel Product Line?

Chamonix boasts a number of products under the Genucel name. These products all promise an enhancement of your appearance through the reduction of fine lines, wrinkles, and the bags under the eyes. These products include:

  • Genucel Deep Firming Serum (DFS)

Made using the plant stem cell technology, Genucel’s DFS promises to enhance the appearance and the health of your skin with its active and powerful ingredients that support the health of the skin. The Deep Firming Serum has a high vitamin C concentration at 7.5%. Chamonix indicates that vitamin C in the DFS enters your skin using a unique technology – Liposome Technology, as well as the latest technology in plant stem cell technologies. They note that thanks to the use of these technologies in the delivery of vitamin C, DFS delivers a high degree of luxury. The best part, according to the manufacturer, is that the DFS formulation yields specular results in a short time.

Should You Buy Genucel?

While plant stem cells have the ability to grow/ transform into any tissue, they can be transformed into a whole (new) organism through a process called totipotency.  Human stem cells cannot be transformed into whole/ new organisms, although they could be transformed into any type of human tissue through pluripotency.

However, despite the potency of plant stem cells and their effectiveness, these stem cells are quite fragile meaning that most, if not all of the stem cells will perish in the cream before they reach the skin. At the same time, even when the stem cells survive, the skin has a powerful protection mechanism that keeps things out. The cells are also large and unable to penetrate the skin’s pores. Therefore, even if the stem cells survive in the cream, they will not pass the epidermis, and they’ll just evaporate, or you’ll wash them out. Lastly, there is no clinical evidence to prove the effectiveness of the plant stem cells on anti-aging in humans.

So, while the stem cells appear to be the marketing point for the Genucel brand of products, there’s little evidence to support the effectiveness of the cells. If any of the Genucel products work on you, it’s highly likely that those results come from the other ingredients in the product and not the stem cells.

The other ingredients

  • Matrixyl is purported to boost the function and the production of collagen. There’s little evidence to support this.
  • Caffeine in the therapy mask could only tighten your skin temporarily.
  • However, the use of hyaluronic acid appears to be the winning bit – hyaluronic acid boosts cellular moisturization and cell turnover, hence the tightening of the skin.
  • Then we have collagen, an abundant human protein, and the foundation for beautiful, strong, and healthy skin. Although it cannot penetrate the skin, it keeps the skin moisturized and tight, albeit temporarily.
