AVON'S Pro Line Eraser Treatment
  • What is A-F33 (Amino-Fill 33) ??  According to AVON: " Unlike AHA. Unlike Retinol. "

    Avon says:  " It works to deactivate collagen blocking ( what does  ' deactivate collagen blocking '  mean ??) and help effectively boost
    collagen
    production in just 3 days. The look of deep wrinkles begin to
    fade in just one week
    ".  

    According to the ingredient list retinol and ascorbic acid is listed, but at the bottom of the ingredient list. 

    What part does the ingredient " Acetyl Tyrosinamide "  play in the formulation ?

    FK1221
  • Not a Brain, but to me this looks like the sort of claims the Brains warn us about. Notice how the look of deep wrinkles begin to fade in just one week. Also, isn't it odd that the ad copy reads "Unlike AHA. Unlike Retinol." and then retinol is listed as being in the ingredients?! 

    If the retinol and ascorbic acid are near the bottom of the ingredient list it means there are only tiny amounts present in the formula. If this is jar packaging it would be useless because of the packaging. Repeated exposure to air and light would degrade the formula every single time you open the jar to use it.

    Do retinol and ascorbic acid belong in the same formulation? Do they work well together or sort of cancel each other out if present in the same product? I couldn't even find the ingredient Acetyl Tryosinamide in the database I checked. No idea on that.

    Hopefully The Brains will to chime in on this one. I am interested to hear the answer.

  • Thanks lindygirl for responding  :)  .  

    The product is packaged in a pump and looks from the picture .. you can view the Pro Line Eraser Treatment on the internet ..  that it is opaque ( to keep the light/air out).    All I could find out about ACETYL TYROSINAMIDE  is that it is an amino acid but not its  " function " in an ingredient list.    Here is the ingredient list which looks pretty standard to me:

    WATER/EAU
    GLYCERIN
    ETHYLHEXYL ISONONANOATE
    OCTYLDODECANOL
    DIMETHICONE
    BUTYLENE GLYCOL
    POLYMETHYL METHACRYLATE
    TRISILOXANE
    HYDROXYETHYL ACRYLATE/SODIUM ACRYLOYLDIMETHYL TAURATE COPOLYMER
    ISOHEXADECANE
    ACETYL TYROSINAMIDE   ????? --- Amino Acid
      ?
    DIMETHICONOL
    PEG-100 STEARATE
    LAURETH-4
    POLYSORBATE 60
    POLYSORBATE 20
    ASCORBIC ACID
    BHT
    SODIUM HYDROXIDE
    DISODIUM EDTA
    RETINOL
    PHENOXYETHANOL
    METHYLPARABEN


    I look forward to hearing from The Brains on their breakdown of the product and what " Collagen Blocking " and " A-F33 " is ???
  • Very interesting. I'll try to look at this next week. 
  • Thank you very much, Right Brain, for your review of the product and for explaining all the marketing claims  ! ! ! !   :)
  • I have the same questions!! Right Brains please could you help me out too... can't find Acetyl Tyrosinamide anywhere!


    Thanks,
