Youthology works?
I saw an ad for youthology eye serum and wondered if it can possibly live up to its stated promise. Youthology website claims " What if you could turn back the hands of time and look up to ten years younger — without painful injections or surgery — AND in just 90 seconds" My instinct says no to youthology. Anyone think youthology is worth buying?

Bought it after I read all the comments and was dreading my purchase, but, I've been using is for about a week, on top of my foundation (Estee Lauder double wear), and I'm not kidding, I love it! It works if you apply it correctly. I've had to remove a little white residue every so often, but overall, I really like it, and I'm no way affiliated with the company. The other products that come with the intro pack isn't worthwhile, I prefer my own moisturizer, but, I'm sold!!!

I too was thinking about getting this when I watched the infomercial at 3:00am. I'm a 55 year old that can't sleep well. Some of you will know what I'm talking about. Anyway, the voice of reason kicked in just as I was getting my wallet out to call in my purchase. I thought I'd better check out the reviews first. I put alot of stock in reviews from actual users around my age. I don't hold much faith in the FDA, so I'm willing to take my own chances on some things. I'm not liking what I'm hearing and will not be buying this. Thanks girls.

What a brilliant idea they have! Try this test: -Dig out a bottle of Elmer's glue and put it on lines by one eye and Youthology on the other. (Don't worry - as Elmer's says on the bottle it's non-toxic and safe). - Notice the similiarities as you apply: * Bottles may be clogged. Both dry out if exposed to air. Use a needle to unclog either, as necessary. * Neither has gone through dermatalogical testing or list their ingredients, but both are considered safe for skin.(see youthology and Elmer websites) * Both dry within about 90 seconds, reduce lines if applied correctly, but may leave a white residue. * Both wash off with soap and water, but applying make-up over them requires a deft hand and a water-based foundation. * Both will last for 6-8 hours (but, if you smile too much lines may "crack out"). I'm not saying they are the EXACT same formula - but here are the differences: * Elmer's doesn't come with a hard-to-get money back guarantee (and keep the shipping and handling). * Elmer's packaging is better for preventing the "serum" from drying out. And, well, is a more more trustworthy brand name. * It's also a whole heck of a lot more cost-efficient. If you've bought Youthology, try the test for yourself. If you haven't, before you do I'd recommend you try Elmer's for the effect first and see how you like it.

Product does not work! In fact, it darkened the skin around and under my eyes, as well as left a residue. When I wiped the residue away, I noticed that my eyes were still puffy. I normally never buy anything without researching it, but this time I did, and I got snookered! Shame on me!!

I wound up with a skin reaction under both eyes...red irritation that looks like a burn.

I'm 53, have fine lines and some light crows feet from the sun. I have been considering Botox, or something like it. After seeing this product on the TV many times at the gym on the treadmill I thought wow! No shots.....after reading all of this here I will call that DR. Happy to see this before I spent the money.

Product is so-so, but customer service is TERRIBLE! Everyone gets enrolled in auto-shipments, which is not clearly stated on the invoice. Before you know it, you have another package you never wanted, and can't get refunded for the 10 S and H costs. BEWARE.

Actually there are other products on the market that work in the same way... they tighten the skin and keep it that way till you get wet or oily... Adrienne Arpel had one some years ago and I still have a little bit and it does work... not only under the eyes but around the lips, etc.
