I looked at the website but cannot find any information about their studies.

The products use a high level of antioxidants but antioxidants alone do not rebuild skin.

There are many "miracle" products every year but nothing really seems to work. Why do high profile actors and actresses have so many bumps and spots on their skin?

The glycosaminoglycans, elastin, and collagen will attract moisture to the outer skin proteins and have some wetting action on the skin. But they will not penetrate the outer protein layers even if they wet the skin. They will not get into skin cells. It is extremely difficult to get large, charged molecules through the skin.

But the advertising approach is very slick.

It seems like there is one company that produces all these products.

I was pulled in too, and realized that it was all crap.
