Revitacil

Sold by Vitabase, Revitacil was previously known as Everderm CL. Companies change names like this to get past bad press associated with a certain name, such as Everderm CL. The Vitabase line includes products like stretch mark creams and nutritional supplements. Each bottle is supposed to last 4 to 6 weeks, and they claim it will reduce stretch marks within 6 months.

Price: $29.95

Ingredients and Mechanism of Action:

Revitacil ingredients include Deionized Water, C12-15 Alky Benzoate, Sesame Oil, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Sweet Almond Oil, Cetearyl Olivate, Sorbitan Olivate, Skin Repair Complex(Biopeptide-CL, Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-3, Phyllanthus Emblica Fruit Extract, Siegesbeckia Orientalis Extract, Polyglyceryl Methacrylate, Propylene Glycol, Palmitoyl Oligopeptide, Carbomer, Polysorbate-16, Glucosamine HCL, Algae Extract, Yeast Extract, Urea, Butylene Glycol, Centella Asiaticia (Hydrocotyl Extract), Coneflower (Echinacea Angustifolia Extract), Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein, Imperata Cylindrica Root Extract, Bearberry Extract and Licorice PTH), Glycerin, PPG-12/SMDI Copolymer, Slyceryl Stearate, Cetearth-20, Barbadenise Leaf Juice (Aloe Extract), Rose Mainus Officinalis(Rosemary Extract), Sambubus Nigra Flower(Elder Extract), Cucumis Sativus(Cucumber Extract), Equisetum Arvenes(Horsetail Extract), Tea Tree Oil, Shea Butter, Tocopheryl Acetate, Mango Butter, Methylparaben, Polyacrylamide C13-14 Isoparafin Laurth-7, Propylparaben, Allantoin, Disodium EDTA, Retinyl Palmitate, Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate, Hedera Helix (Ivy Extract), Aesculus Hippocastenum (Horse Chestnut Extract), and fragrance.

This long list of ingredients is meant to mask the fact that they have very few ingredients of consequence. They have one total peptide in the whole mix, which would be the only type of ingredient to increase your skin turnover and your body’s production of collagen and elastin, which would get rid of stretch marks over time. And at only $29.95, this isn’t particularly surprising. Cheap price equals cheap ingredients and a cheap product that probably doesn’t cost them more than 2 cents to manufacture in the first place.

Overall Impression of Revitacil:

Revitacil, in its own way, poses as a high class cream that will finally get rid of those annoying stretch marks. But in another way, they realize and admit exactly what they are. It is cheaper than most, but at the same point, it should actually cost less, probably around $5-$10 at the most. You really can’t expect results with this particular product, and we wouldn’t advise buying it.
