Strivectin - horrible reaction!

[Anonymous]

OP-- where did you buy it???

There are a lot of counterfeits online. I was getting mine at Costco and never had an issue.

I ordered from Walmart online cheaper--and the stuff in the jar was nothing like the Costco stri. It was goopy and different color. I took a deep dive and saw counterfeits are on amazon and walmart.

They also recently changed the formula.

I re-ordered elsewhere and what arrived was like what I got at costco.

I was going to ask same. I use Strivectin with no issues but I ordered a different brand cream once from Amazon, something I had long used with no problems, and it about burned my skin off. I looked more closely and the container's color was juuuuust a little different and it was clear it was counterfeit. I can't believe what Amazon is able to get away with, I guess it's Bezos's influence.

Also meant to say - report it to where you bought it, the company and FDA if it's bad. Just in case it's counterfeit or they changed the formula it's good to be on record.

I had the exact same reaction to Strivectin, bought it from Costco. Glad to know I wasn’t the only one.
