Roc Keeps it's Promises

Sep 19 '00



Note: I wrote this editorial in the beginning of July, but had no where to put it. This looks like the best fit.

The TV commercial for Roc shows an old wrinkled face transformed by Roc Anti-Wrinkle Treatment.. And then they say, “Roc keeps its promises.” “If only,” I thought. This 56 year old face can use some help!

I found Roc’s site on the Internet and ordered their anti-wrinkle cream in March for $32 plus shipping. The literature claims wrinkles will be "visibly reduced" in just 12 weeks. OK. so I started checking my fine lines right away in my 5 times magnifying mirror, (the eyes are going too), and try as I may I didn’t see any improvement. But the commercial says, “Roc says it keeps its promises”, so I was determined to keep using it. Then lo and behold, one day in June, close to my 56th birthday, when I was thinking, “ I’m on my way to 60!” I noticed the fine lines were actually less noticeable. The lines on my cheek had diminished. The lines around my lips were less noticeable. Was I seeing things? Could it be true? Well, the improvement is subtle, but definitely there.

I have recently purchased my second 1-ounce tube at a local beauty product superstore (Ulta) for only $17.99. What a bargain! At the same time I purchased the daytime treatment which contains an SPF15 sunscreen, and the eye cream which claims to firm the eye tissue. I’ll write another review after I’ve used these for a while.

About the product: Retinol Actif Pur
Anti-Wrinkle Treatment for Night


My first impression of this cream was that a tiny bit covered my whole face and neck area. It spread smoothly and easily and was quickly absorbed. It felt quite mild and there was no stinging sensation as there is sometimes with glycolic acid. It was odorless and felt very comfortable and pleasant on my face.. The more I used it, the more I liked the way it felt. I’m convinced that Roc keeps its promises.
