Resveratrol, Does It Really Work?
updated: May, 10th
“I was surprised by the results after the first 3 days, but once a week had passed I was totally blown away. I knew I was on to something.” - Diane
Hey, my name is Diane Smith and I want to share a fantastic beauty secret that has my skin looking 10 years younger. It doesn’t involve any Botox or expensive surgeries or creams; it’s just a simple 2 step skin care system I discovered that has my skin looking smooth and young once again. And it doesn’t cost a thing! See the difference for yourself!
From Left to Right: Before and After
How I Got My Wrinkles
In my teens and early twenties I was what you would call a beach bunny; I could not get a dark enough tan! I always had that beautiful sun kissed glow, didn’t have to worry about sunscreens because my skin never burned, and I never had a blemish in sight. I didn’t even worry about skin cleansers and creams, because, frankly, I just didn’t need them. Well, believe me that has definitely caught up with me now.
I guess I first started to notice that my skin wasn’t so youthful anymore about 10 years ago, just after my 33rd birthday. At first they were subtle fine lines that my girlfriends would endearingly refer to as laugh lines; making them sound almost cute. But those laugh lines slowly but surely turned into ugly old wrinkles, crow’s feet, uneven skin and even enlarged pores by the time I hit 40. Of course work related stress and a few cigarettes every now and then just added to the damage. But either way this was a far cry from the skin I was used to having. I would look in the mirror and not see myself anymore. I mean who was this old lady staring back at me?
Then earlier this year came my breaking point. It was about 4 months ago when I was out at the grocery store with my 10 year old daughter Cara, and someone asked me if I was her grandma. Can you believe that? I am only 43! I must have turned 12 shades of red; I was completely mortified. It was that day that I decided I needed to take more drastic measures to reclaim my youth.

The Solution That Kept Me From Going Under the Knife
Like lots of people I had tried dozens of skin creams, including Oil of Olay, Neutrogena and Revlon, but none of these supposed anti-aging products gave me any satisfaction. I still looked and felt old. I was so desperate that I was even considering Botox to get rid of the wrinkles that had taken over my once pretty, smooth, facial skin. Thank god it never came to that.
I was watching Oprah one afternoon (because I am Oprah-obsessed) and she was doing a ‘best of’ show with Dr. Oz. Well, Dr. Oz was raving about this supplement called Resveratrol that is used for anti-aging and weight loss. I was sold when Dr. Oz explained how Resveratrol is a natural anti-oxidant found in red wine that helps to reduce the signs of aging and even raises energy levels. In fact he even confessed to using it himself. Then 60 Minutes Barbara Walters also did a segment talking about the benefits of Resveratrol for recapturing your youth and it really hit home. I knew I had to try it.
There was also another daily use anti-wrinkle cream that a friend of mine swears by. She always looks fantastic and says that her skin secret is Pliatrol, in fact she calls it her ‘face lift in a bottle’ So with proof right in front of me, I decided that I needed to try that cream as well before taking the drastic step to undergo plastic surgery.
So, in the end I decided that I might as well try the two products together: Resveratrol to help reverse the aging process to let me live better and longer, and Pliatrol to give that additional daily boost for on the spot skin rejuvenation. I hoped that using them together would see faster results and with any luck increased confidence. And I was not disappointed!
After a little bit of research online I found that they were safe to use together and that I wasn’t alone in wanting to use these two specific products: Turns out they are some of the most popular products celebrities and individuals alike use to keep their skin looking youthful and fresh. Learn below how these products worked for me.
Step 1: Resveratrol
Step 2: Pliatrol
All About My “Dynamic Duo”
After trying so many products that didn’t work, I didn’t want to spend a fortune trying out these two new ones. I did a little more searching and found that I could get free trials for both: Resveratrol and Pliatrol. Below is my 2 step skin care routine with links to the free trials of these products.
ABC’s Barbara Walters talks with Dr. David Sinclair of Harvard about the benefits of Resveratol
Step 1: Resveratrol
Reservatrol is the first and most important part of my daily routine. All I do is take the supplement every morning when I get up and it works wonders on my face. Resveratrol has had a noticeable Botox-like effect on my face and my lines are disappearing before my eyes. Not only is this product helping to make me look younger, I am losing weight because of the high level of antioxidants! Here are some benefits of Resveratrol:
Resveratrol
- Slows down and reverses skin-aging process
- Aids in new skin cell regeneration
- High level of anti-aging oxidants help smooth and firm my skin
- Antioxidants boost my energy levels and help me lose weight
I was able to get a free 2 week trial of Resveratrol online and the best part is I only have to take it once a day and then I’m done!
Step 2: Pliatrol
Pliatrol is a wrinkle cream that is an important second step in my daily routine. Pliatrol gives my skin that little boost that acts as the perfect complement to Resveratrol. Here are the benefits of Pliatrol:
- Smoothes out wrinkles immediately and lasts up to 8 hours
- Lifts and firms my face to keep my skin looking radiant
- Works beneath the skin to correct deeper lines for a younger look
- Small and compact, easy to carry with me and use anywhere
Just like Resveratrol, I was able to get a free bottle of Pliatrol. I use Pliatrol in the morning and it lasts all day long. I usually carry a bottle of it with me in my purse in case I’m out all day and feel like I need an instant lift in the evening.
The New Improved Me
During my trial period, my wrinkles started fading just a short couple of days after I tried these anti-aging products for the first time. And by the second week I noticed that my skin looked completely renewed. I waited for the wrinkles to come back, but for the first time in my life, they didn’t!
Today I look in the mirror and see my face, not my wrinkles. I love the way I look now, and everyone around me has noticed the difference in my appearance, as well as my confidence. Best of all, I look and feel beautiful!
I truly believe that this “dynamic duo” that I have discovered will give the same drastic results to anyone who tries. And encourage everyone to try these free samples to see for themselves. Just do it, you have nothing to lose but those pesky wrinkles that you don’t want any way! I have been blogging throughout my experience and will continue to post about my progress! Good luck!

I watched an Oprah episode about an anti-aging supplement that Oprah and Dr. Oz were talking about, and I saw the same product on 60 Minutes as well. I thought I should look into it, as that seemed like something that would probably work. I was going to check it out on my break at work, but Cara had a fever, so I had to go pick her up from school and take her to my mom’s house. I will check again when I have time later.
March 18th 3:20pm
I had some free time on my hands at work, so I decided to search Google for this supplement I was talking about earlier. And as it turns out it is 100% natural. I found a website online giving free trials of the Resveratrol. I will write more when I get it in the mail. It should only take a couple days.
March 23rd 10:34am
Just got it in the mail! I also ordered something called Pliatrol that comes highly recommended from my girlfriend and had a free trial as well. I was planning on trying them together, to see if they work well. Hopefully they do! I am excited to see how this works out. I am going to take them, and I will write more about it later.
March 23rd 1:08pm
I feel great. My energy is super high and it must be all the anti-oxidants in the Resveratrol. Talk about a bonus if I not only look younger but get an energy boost too! The Pliatrol is also amazing. All I did was apply the topical cream in the morning and it instantly filled out the lines in my face. I looked refreshed and I got to work and everyone was commenting on how vibrant I seemed!
April 1st 9:20am
It’s been a week since starting both products. To be honest there hasn’t been a lot of permanent change in my face so far. To be honest my husband couldn’t tell at all, when I had washed the makeup off my face at night. BUT… the Pliatrol has been a godsend and worked right from the beginning. I figure that the Pliatrol is the perfect product to use while I am waiting for the more long term affects of the Resveratrol to kick in. But will keep you posted!
April 8th 3:17pm
It has been another week, putting me at 2weeks of using my 2 step routine. And I am now starting to see some serious results. Some of the finer lines on my face have started to fill out and my face is definitely starting to firm up. And the Pliatrol continues to fill in the gaps and give that daily lift I need.
April 14th 7:14pm
WOW. It seems that three is the magic number. I mean the change from week two to week three is just unbelievable! My skin has never looked better! All of a sudden the crow’s feet and laugh lines are visibly lessening. Even my age spots are lightening in color. I just feel completely rejuvenated. Not to mention that I have even started a workout routine as I have all of this new found energy. I feel and look like I am in my twenties again!
April 25th 10:05am
It has now been over a month since starting my new skin regime and I have never felt better. Using the products every morning has become second nature and I can’t imagine starting my day without them. I no longer get those annoying comments about being a grandma and actually even had someone think I was only 30. Well maybe the young man was just trying to flatter me, but either way, it means I look good! My confidence has never been better, and this just drives my husband wild! I hope everyone else tries these products and gets their life changing experience like I have.
May 1st 8:00am
So five weeks have passed and I continue to use Resveratrol and Pliatrol. Although I have gotten rid of those pesky wrinkles and signs of aging skin I continue to use both products. Resveratrol has so many benefits such as helping me prevent osteoporosis and just in general reversing the signs of aging both inside and out, that I just don’t see why I should stop. And as for the Pliatrol, well it’s not that I necessarily need it anymore, but that doesn’t mean I don’t want it! It is the perfect little secret to throw on your face before a big night out and just gives that extra bit of radiance that every woman wants. Both have free samples, and you have nothing but wrinkles to lose by trying them! Don’t waste another day being dissatisfied with how you look. You CAN change, it is possible!

Sheryl here! I posted about 10 days ago and just wanted to follow up like I promised I would. 
Anyway all the products arrived 6 days ago and I’ve been taking them since the first day they got here.
I had my fingers crossed and it sure looks like it payed off big time. I wish I had taken a before picture myself, just because this change is CRAZY! I really look 10 years younger and it has only been 6 days.
The combination is just GENIUS and I’m so glad you stumbled upon this secret formula…
Thanks!

Hello — I just ordered my trials. I hope it works for me like it did for you. I am a bit older than you, but I too was a sun worshipper when I was young.

I can’t believe it! I was wary of this at first but I’m so happy I did it. My husband didn’t even know I was using anything and he commented today that I look younger. He hasn’t said something like that to me for 5 years! AND HE DOESN’T EVEN KNOW I WAS WORKING ON IT!!!!
Thank you!
PS: for any others who are curious about the process, I am currently on day 8 and got that comment from my husband this morning.

I think my wife would like this. As far as I’m concerned she’s beautiful as she is, but I know she has been looking for something along these lines. I’ll buy her the trials to test out.

Sounds interesting, I’ve heard a lot about resveratrol all over the place. You’re the second person I’ve heard of who had good results with it. Seems like it’s time to give it a shot. Thanks
