Final Conclusion:
Unless you have $88 to blow on taking a risk at having a 30 year old neck that would make J.Lo jealous, I would try a cheaper alternative first. This product also has a lot of really old school ingredients that are pretty synthetic, despite being non-irritating and safe, I think you could get a moister and younger looking neck by just applying some cocoa butter. There aren’t any heavy hitting firming ingredients in the formula to make it as effective as it may be vaguely alluding to.
