Peter Thomas Roth Review Summary |
|
Like many founders of skincare lines, Peter Thomas Roth first began developing his formulas in order to treat his own problem skin. His knowledge base comes from being the descendant of Hungarian spa owners, who drew on the healing powers of mud and mineral waters for many of their treatments. When Roth founded his company in 1993 he improved on many of these existing formulas using modern technological advances.
Over ten years later, the line now includes treatments for acne, wrinkles, and sun protection. Roth’s products are somewhat unique in their simplicity, as they do not contain the excessive fragrances and colors are so often found in other spa products. However, the massive selection may be confusing for consumers, and many products are redundant.

| Products In Focus |
|
The active ingredient in Peter Thomas Roth’s Mega Rich Intensive Anti-Aging Cellular Crème is a peptide-based complex called Firma-CELL-4. Peptides have been gaining in popularity lately because certain complexes have been shown to help prevent wrinkles and smooth existing ones.
Mega Rich Intensive Anti-Aging Cellular Crème contains several antioxidants and emollients that are designed to protect the skin from free radical damage and keep it nourished. However, this product could also benefit from an advanced water-binding agent like Hyaluronic Acid, which has been shown to carry nutrients to skin cells that do not have a direct blood supply.

Peter Thomas Roth’s website posts complete lists of ingredients for each product, as well as a comprehensive description of the main active ingredients. With the enormous range of skin care products currently available, consumers benefit greatly from this kind of information, as it helps to determine which product is most appropriate for their skin type.
The website attempts to expedite the purchasing process by offering express shopping, which presents consumers with a list of all products and allows them to simply enter in the desired quantities. While this saves the time of navigating through the entire site in search of a few specific items, Peter Thomas Roth could make things even more convenient for customers by providing automatic shipping. Anyone who has ever suddenly found the jar of their favorite skincare product empty can certainly understand the appeal of a service like this.
