9:48 am
don't nt to get riof my bags and noar makeup do to my mailbox without makeup on. it's at the tend minute market ten minute mark where it is at what plexaderm does. you don't have to think about it you put it on your skin and let it do its thing. >> this video i have seen go viral. it's a powerful product and people hd so man fferent gs. tea bags, ice.??? one thing that is really does not involve a doctor visit, it does not involve injectio of any kind. >> yeah it's very extinghis is brand-new technology been working on this for a while. they took some of the ingredients there the shell rock, clay from the shell rock and that's how they formulate it and that's how it works. pulling up the moisture which is really important like -- >> that's why you have the rock there. >> that's why i have the rock to show where it comes from and why it is doing what it is doing. that's the big question what is
9:49 am
product and thr pre otheucts. the distinction is the formulation ofeing abl he suac whilet tightens it. at's why the bags go away. we're not covering them up. >> there is the rock right there. here is the cream right here. we're going toin t expla serum in a moment. >> exactly. so y know what i really like about it is there is no prep rk, no doctors no thinking ahead. they have been working on this quite a while. like you said it's on facebook been taking the country by storm because it works. that's why we like to do that time lapse video so people can e. not just the undereye bags lines, creases, forehead lines anything you want to fill that's what you want to use it on it's good for the day. >> taking a look at the video again. you can see after several minutes it is diminished even more so it looks perfectly healthy. >> i know that's the other thing too because remember because you are pulling the moisture to the surface of your skin that's why not everybody needs loon. that's the iss have. i just get the lines my skin is super dry. the other thing e heabout is a friendly guy, but we asked him not to smile.
9:50 am
