Summary
The first thing that jumped out at us as we put together this testing is the price of this product. Priced at $90.00 for a 1.4 oz supply of cream, StriVectin does not make it tremendously affordable for users to use this product consistently, especially since it is designed solely for the neck. While this price may seem a bit high, if it works effectively it would be an amazing value.
The first step in our neck cream examination is to have our staff here review the ingredients and get an understanding of how a product works. Ingredients make or break a product, our team was unable to find the ingredients of this product prior to its arrival, which we found odd initially. Once the product was received and we were around 45 days into testing, we realized our concerns were being validated. This cream showed little to no results on over 60% of our sample consumers. On these testers, we documented zero visible results of firming and tightening of the neck. The neck line in some instances even looked worse. 10% felt the product worked well and would continue to use it. Documented results were mostly the evening of tone and discoloration.
Our Stance
This neck cream is a waste of time. Over priced for the value, the more you use this product the more disheartened you are. Neck-Cream.com has no issue with pricey creams, provided the ingredients and results speak for themselves. This cream had an uncomfortable tightening sensation that was bothersome to say the least. Too bad that was all the tightening we saw. We cannot endorse or recommend a product that is overpriced and ineffective. Overall we were disappointed with StiVectin’s Neck Cream and advise you to find another solution.

Saw an ad for this in June 09 Chatelaine researched it on net. Thanks for your review. I probably would have purchased this and wasted a bunch of money if not for your frank review. In future I will be checking your site frequently as I consider future purchases of skincare products. Thank you
I have used this product faithfully since Thanksgiving 09…1 month. I have seen a slight result, but it isn’t a lasting result.
I seen this advertised in a Better Homes and Gardens Mag. I bought it.. Used it as directed after the jar was finished.. I feel I wasted my hard earned money. after reading the reviews on this site. I bought the Dermajuv……Awesome results.
I wish I had found this sight before. Will be using it from now on.
Thanks
My husband and I just started with StriVectin neck cream so I can not say about results. But for sure I can tell you that the price quoted on this website is only for those who do not shop around. COSTCO offers two jars for around 80.00. I puchased two 1 oz bottles on Ebay for 45.00! Shoppers - shop around!
I bought Strivectin Neck Cream at Costco Warehouse in December 09. They were offering an instant rebate which brought the price of two jars to $85.00.
I am 42 (almost 43) and my neck is looking a bit “crepey” and the rebate was enough incentive for me to buy & try it. Here are my thoughts on the product:
It smells bad & the consistency is strange which makes it difficult to dispense. I did not notice a tightening sensation in any way. I used the product generously to give it a good try! I was surprised when I read the instructions and they advised to apply the product to your decollettage (chest, cleavage area). I thought, well I’d better do what they say. I’ve been using the product about 6 weeks now and I am simply AMAZED at the results on my chest! I grew up in Arizona and was a sun worshipper and a tanning bed fanatic. My chest was deeply lined and very sun damaged and it looks dramatically better! My neck is slightly improved in appearance but it really wasn’t too bed in the first place. I am so thrilled by the results I think I’d buy this at any price, at least until I find a product that works better. As a bonus, I was at Costco last week and they have now reduced the price to $39 for two jars. I figure it’s not selling well and they are trying to clear it out. I bought another two pack and likely will again when I am there next time.
Bottom line: I got a very unexpected pleasant result from this product and I’m just thrilled about that. It given me a confidence boost and I feel young again! My husband told me he can see the difference.
Good luck in your quest for youth!
Thought I got a great deal at Costco — $100 for two standard 1 oz. jars. Used religiously day and night for two months — so disappointing. I even took before and after pictures which revealed absolutely NO perceptable change in turkey neck ‘droop’ nor wrinkles at bottom of neck nor skin texture. If anyone has anything to recommend, please share! Do not waste your money on this.
I AM A 49 YEAR OLD WOMAN WITH “TURKEY NECK ” ISSUES. I SPENT MY VERY HARD EARNED MONEY BUYING “STRIVECTIN” NECK CREAM. I WILL NEVER MAKE THAT MISTAKE AGAIN. IT DID NOTHING FOR ME!
I was wrong to believe in this. Cost me 100 dollars
Bought this to try as a sample off ebay. Smells terrible, and haven’t noticed much as far a results go. I’m 42, and my neck nis beginning to show signs of age. I haven’t given it a long try, but initial go of about 4 weeks-not that great. I will try the others recommended here.
