We rated this wrinkle cream overall a 24/100. It does have some nice peptides in the ingredient list, but we got very little results from it.
Our Testing Results for Hydrolyze:
From the onset we had some issues pertaining to the balance and substance of the cream. The product was uncomfortable to wear and felt tight on our skin from the very start. By the time our consumers reached the two week mark we had 3 users already removed from the tests due to irritation and the development of small bumps on the forehead. That was unfortunately not the end of our disappointment.
By the end of our testing period it became obvious that not only is the use of generic peptides not effective enough to make visible results, but the concentration of those bargain basement ingredients was so low, that it would take well over a year to see any sort of results.
The visual impression of Hydrolyze: The jar is nice.. heavy and of high quality. It seemed like they tried to make a cream that was luxurious. The product, however, was a bit of a disappointment knowing that we usually love products with the right concentration of peptides. However, I think this cream relied to heavily on just having Matrixl 3000, and not including other ingredients that are of the high-end nature.
Price of Hydrolyze: Well there is an auto-ship program where you just pay for shipping and handling, but then get billed every month. We’re not going to even entertain products who do this any more, as these offers are so deceptive. Luckily, though, Hydroxatone also offers a regular old buy 2, get one free promotion, without the autoship. Priced at around $130 for all three bottles, the price is about average for a wrinkle cream in this category.
Our Recommendation of Hydrolyze:
Users of this cream are on the right track, but nowhere near the right product. Yes, peptides and other regenerative ingredients are clearly the elite of wrinkle fighters, but you must use name brand ingredients. The difference in price is nominal, but the results are of a whole separate category. For the same money you would spend on this cream, you can purchase the pinnacle of skin rejuvenation. Stay away from this cream, while the science behind the product is substantiated, the manufacturer cut corners by including low amounts of imitation products, leaving you, the consumer, hanging out to dry.
