Scartini Anyone?

Scartini…sounds like a sexy drink, doesn’t it? The idea is that it’s a healing “cocktail” for your skin.
Scartini is the new solution for healing scrapes, cuts, surgical incisions (goodbye thyroid scar?), burns, stretch marks, acne scars, sun damage and wrinkles.
Created by former contestant on The Apprentice (Season 3), Erin Elmore, and Dr. Shareef Jandali, Chief Plastic Surgery Resident at the University of Pennsylvania, she would have won the contest if she’d invented this during the show, for marketing alone!
The “secret ingredients” in this skin potion are Centella Asiatica and Lychee Extract. There are anecdotal reports that these natural ingredients are proven to decrease redness, speed scar healing, and boost collagen production. It also has been shown to increase the “breaking strength” of scars, leading to thinner scars that don't widen with time.
While we can’t swear to its efficacy, for $29.99 we are sure going to give it a try!
