Another recommendation is the Ordinary Argireline Solution 10%. This is the one that works kind of like Botox works on the expression lines.

I gave this such a fair shot. Multiple bottles, consistent use, I committed to the cause, but I'm still unconvinced. I know people absolutely swear by this product. Theoretically, it makes sense. The peptides are meant to soften expression lines. But for me, I just never saw enough of a difference.

Where they part company

Dr. Aleksandra Brown calls The Ordinary Argireline Solution 10% approved. Skin Obsessed Mary calls it skip. Two experts, one product, takes about 3 weeks apart, and opposite conclusions. Their own words are above; we are not going to tell you which of them is right.

What the whole panel says

These two are not the only voices on The Ordinary Argireline Solution 10%. Across every independent expert take we hold, it carries a Guru Score of 71% from 14 experts, which is the share of them who approved it. The other 12 experts we hold takes from are counted in it too. See every take on it →

Why we only pair takes from the same month

A formula gets reworked, a price moves, and a product people loved in one year is not the product they are handed in the next. Two takes far apart in time can look like a disagreement when they are really a description of a product that changed. So a face-off only pairs experts whose videos went up within a month of each other, and neither take here is sponsored.
