How It Works::
"The Natural FaceLift" creates a more youthful appearance by
toning and firming facial muscles, diminishing fine lines and wrinkles,
and improving skin tone and color.
As it dries...this revolutionary product creates an isometric pressure
between the masque and the muscles of the face and neck to restore firmness
to sagging skin and muscles. This hypoallergenic mask is made up of natural
active ingredients selected for their soothing and revitalizing effect
on the skin.
Special enzymes that are contained in the ingredients of the product
help to promote collagen growth and incite the production of acetylcholine.
Acetylcholine is the chemical used by the body to activate muscular activity.
By fortifying the collagen matrix in your skin as well as toning and firming
the muscles of your face you will be able to reduce fine lines and wrinkles
from the very first application.
You will improve the color and tone of your skin as well as improve the
circulation and cellular turnover rates that keep skin looking and feeling
younger!
Product History:
The "non-surgical" face-lift concept was introduced many years
ago through a complicated, multi part system involving numerous products
and mixing. Working closely with leading skin care formulators, a revolutionary
"pre-mixed" facelift with firming botanicals has been created.
With one simple step and increased effectiveness,
"The Natural Face Lift" delivers results unheard of in the industry...
with the first application!
It's a facelift without surgery!!!

FIT HAPPENS : A new wrinkle: Is this stuff for real?
LAURA CARTWRIGHT
This is not a product endorsement. Oh, it's going to sound like one. But really, all I'm going to do is tell you what happened. Honest. What happened is this: Information came across my desk about Natural Facelift, a supposed non surgical alternative to a nip-and-tuck face-lift or the very scary (to me, anyway) Botox phenomenon. With low expectations (but an open mind), I decided what the heck - I'll check it out. If it's at all impressive, I'll mention it to readers.
So I called Susan Lowrey, a registered nurse at a Little Rock hospital who recently became the Arkansas distributor for this mystery product. (Is it a cream? A miracle pill? Heaven forbid, but is it one of those crazy elastic-band thingees that supposedly stretch your wrinkles up into your hairline? Eww …)
I was still in the dark as to what I was going to experience when Susan and her sister Trisha Edmonson (who has been using Natural Facelift for two years - and has no wrinkles at 42) showed up to demonstrate the product on my sister Cathy and me.
Turns out that Natural Facelift is a mask to be used three times a week for 90 days, then once or twice a week thereafter for maintenance. Also turns out that the sisters wanted to mask only half our faces so we could notice the results. OK …
(Please let there be some results because these ladies are so nice and earnest, I was steadily thinking as the mask dried - it only took about 20 minutes, though it could have taken up to 30.) Whoa. Cathy and I were impressed, to say the least. Shocked, to say the most. But, hey, we're highly imaginative and eager to please. (Sorry, Cathy, but we are.) Later John noticed immediately which side had been done - I didn't tell him, either. But he's such a sweetheart … and I had to be sure.
So the next day at work, I showed my face to several - many - of my co-workers and told them I'd tried the mask on half my face. Double whoa. The mouths of all the women (I kept count) fell open. Literally. More amazingly, all the men said they could see the difference and that it was impressive. Ben Krain, a photographer here who shot the accompanying photos, called it amazing and pointed out to me that it "really closes pores." Bear in mind that journalists as a whole are a very skeptical lot.
After the women (even my show-me-the-facts counterpart Celia Storey) closed their mouths, they opened them again to exclaim variations on this theme: "Oh my gosh that's incredible how does it work and how much does it cost ?" How it works, I won't attempt to answer. I'm not sure I buy the official explanation that it "creates isometric pressure that stimulates circulation" which in turn "firms, tones and tightens facial muscles." Whatever. It's just magic in my book.
By the way, it contains some pretty healthy ingredients like aloe vera and ginkgo biloba (maybe it helps your face remember how it used to look). What it costs is $50 a tube, and the first 90-day period requires three tubes. After that, a tube could last you up to four months or so.
I've done my whole face once now - people say the twice-lifted side is still more noticeable. I'm going to use the product the whole 90 days, then let you know the results. I kind of like my wrinkles and figure I've earned them, but this is research. And who can resist a little modern-day magic??
