Fountain Resveratrol Supplement

So, you’ve probably heard of Resveratrol in skin care – associated with grapes; it’s not a completely uncommon ingredient, but it isn’t really known particularly as a supplement aimed at the beauty market. There has been research (notably from Harvard) that shows Resveratrol can help to replicate cells which has connotations not only for beauty but for health too. It’s being looked at closely in connection with heart disease, for example.

Normally, I’d be inclined to put this down as nonsense, but since my experience with Imedeen and realising that what you take on the inside genuinely can have an effect on the outside, I’m less of a sceptic. Fountain is apparently one of the first bio-available Resveratrol products to the market  – you take a spoonful every day and a bottle will last six weeks. The other two things that are making me think this one might have legs is that a) it has hyaluronic acid in the mix as well, and b) Boots have taken it.

There is SO much Resveratrol information on-line that it is impossible to come to a conclusion one way or the other on whether taking it as a supplement will bring big benefits, but I think, as with any supplement a leap of faith is required. Look what happened when I took a leap of faith with Imedeen.. I’m still taking it and loving it.

Anyway, Fountain will launch on 7th August in Boots for £24.99.

  1. Off the top of my head I can totally recommend Make Up Store and Isadora.
    Especially Isadora, beacuse of the prices. Packing isn’t usually very exciting but they are very up to date with trends and considering the prices the colour pay off is great. They’ve been a staple of mine for years. Make UP Store have a massive range of eyeshadows and lipsticks.

  2. ok so…I must’ve been asleep when I wrote this….was obviously meant for the post on scandinavian brands. Whoops! Sorry 🙂

    I would wager a guess that this is pseudoscience. The only trusted source for finding out the efficacy of various vitamins/supplements etc. is to look on pubmed at peer-reviewed articles. If you can’t find an article, then no academic research has been carried out and you can safely assume that this is a waste of money.

  4. Jane hi,
    Resveratrol is not something new. It is one of those well known old things packed in a new bottle and sold to create a new craze. It is not miraculous and if you have a well balanced nutrition regime and eat a lot of fruit and veg then you can get all of the stuff the bottle claims to give you!

      Thanks – I know it isn’t new.. it has been used in skin care for years and there are various supplements available. I understand about new crazes but the remit of this blog in part is to bring new product news and this is exactly what this is. It is interesting in presentation and interesting in claims – I think BBB readers are well versed in making up their own minds on what they’d like to try and what they wouldn’t.

  5. A great, well balanced review Jane. I’ve had a turnaround on these things too, also triggered by Imedeen funnily enough – and Gold Collagen. The liquid element of this puts me off a little as I struggle with those (prefer capsules) but I’m impressed by the price!

    Speaking of liquid vs capsules; is the former better? I was once told it is but not sure if this is true or not.
