Ellen Lange Skin Science Review Summary |
|
Ellen Lange would be the first to admit that cosmetics run in her blood. She started her career as a skincare specialist, working alongside her father and brother in their plastic surgery practice. During this time she worked with the latest advances in skin treatments and observed which ones gave her clients the best results. Under the guidance of her father and brother, she launched her own line with the goal of improving skin without the use of invasive and expensive surgical procedures – a bit of a surprise, considering Lange’s family history.
In addition to the standard skincare products, Lange’s line also includes treatments designed to recreate the spa experience at home. Although consumers may initially be drawn in by the prospect of saving money on expensive professional procedures, there is still room for improvement in some of these products.

| Products In Focus |
|
MacroThera AM is designed to hydrate dry skin, helping it to appear younger and more radiant. It contains the very effective water-binding agent Hyaluronic Acid, which nourishes the skin by carrying nutrients to skin cells to have a direct blood supply. It also helps to clear away debris, allowing clear skin to shine through.
To fight lines and wrinkles, MacroTherma AM includes fresh collagen and elastin to help supplement the firmness that tends to decline with age. While these ingredients might provide a bit of a boost, certain peptide complexes, such as Matrixyl 3000, go a bit further by actually stimulating collagen synthesis. Matrixyl has even been shown to reduce the depth of wrinkles by building up skin’s own natural “cushion,” causing crease to fill in from beneath the surface.

| Website |
|
In her opening message, Ellen Lange invites guests to browse her website for tips on skin care and new ingredients. However, it seems to include only basic information on Lange’s products and the treatments offered by her spa. Product descriptions list each active ingredient, along with a brief description of how they work to improve the skin. The site could further serve consumers by adding a glossary of ingredients so that consumers can familiarize themselves with each product quickly and easily.
Although Ellen Lange’s website does feature online shopping and gift certificates, it does not offer free trial samples, so consumers who do not live near her spa in New Jersey must pay full price plus shipping for each product.
