I have used flexacil for years and it works well...has anyone out there noticed color variations?...white, tan or sand colored?

Hi B. Scott, I contacted the company as I was wondering the same thing actually. The change in color comes from the switch to the new form of Glucosamine Sulfate. The old version had "Glucosamine Sulfate - Potassium Salt" and now the new version has "Glucosamine Sulfate (2KCL)". The 2KCL version is a more absorbable form of glucosamine sulfate. Hope that helps!

I too am using Flexacil but have only used it for 4 months now ans so far it works well for me as well. In my short time I have not noticed any color variations. Mine have always been sand color.

The first 3 sets of bottles it was an off-white color, now they are white. It may have been that the outside clear capsule was discolored? The color doesn't seem to affect the effectiveness of it and it still works great for me! And like some of the other reviews state... you need to keep using it once you stop all of the pain and other symptoms come back within days.

I believe the picture is of two different products since the colors are different. I got the one with the aqua details. I received one can of a product I use when I get a pedicure. The tech sprays it lightly across my toes before cutting my cuticles, sanding, etc. as I am very sensitive. I strongly believe in it as my ortho dr sprays a stronger version of it before giving me a cortisone injection, which I understand from others can be very painful.

I have kinda "yellowish" tones in my skin so I got this one. I'm pale with yellowish I guess you could say lol. I haven't really noticed that it does that. I mainly use it to set my under eye concealer. However, I think if you pile it on, you can eventually get a yellow tint... slightly. I know a lot of the people who were reviewing were different skin colors ranging from pale to dark. So I think it might just depend on how heavy handed you are on it.

I don't think skin tone matters as much as hair color. I am white, porcelain skin tone with black hair. Works fine. I did notice in summer a little bit of a sting on lightly tan legs. It is amazingly nice to not have to shave after 50+ yrs. This product works!

If you really feel it on your finger tips you will feel both are still a gel. It also could be how long its been sitting, or heat. I still love it,it has worked for me so well. My friends are asking what I'm useing. I'm 61 and I feel like I went back 15 years. it has made such a differance in my appearance., the way I look and the way I feel.

I've used this for so long because it DOESN'T turn me orange. I have very fair Irish skin with red undertones. I guess everyone and every skin tone is different. I've never had an issue with turning orange though.

I used the same one for probably a year or so. I did not notice any yellowing or discoloration.

No, that is not normal. It should be white, and it has a thicker consistency than hand lotion or conditioner. Definitely return it. Im sorry you got a bad batch!

it sounds to me they mixed something up I used this one and it was always white. I also used the other one by them called estriol care and it was a tan color!

Yes, but at the highest setting I am more sensitive. It feels a little like a rubber band snap. I don't feel the snap in non tan areas at the highest setting. The unit should flash when is properly positioned regardless of tan or not. Just not as effective or concentrated on the hair follicle if tanned.

Unfortunately I am not able to answer this for you as this is the first time I have ordered Flexacil. It was recommended by a neighbor and I have had great success with it but like I said I just started this product.

What exactly is your question? If you are asking if it will even out your skin tone, my skin tone is pretty uneven and I don't notice a difference in my skin color after using (nor did I expect to) but the lotion overall works fantastically!

Hello Beth,Thanks for contacting me. The cream in the tube is indeed pretty light, but not white though. Perhaps you did get a bad tube. Can you try some on your hand to see if that changes anything?I love this skin toner and it makes me look younger.Good luck

I didn't notice any issues with the gel color staining my teeth. I did noticed that it helped with a little bit of the tooth sensitivity from the bleaching processes. What I mean is that it took away some of the sensitivity which allowed me to bleach my teeth sooner and get them whiter. So I've been happy and have used the treatment every other week or so. Once again the gel didn't cause any blue colored teeth it worked has advertised.

I think it works well on kids AND adults. My whole family has pretty much maintained our pale skin colors all summer! Just make sure you reapply as directed. The one time we got a little pinkness on our cheeks was when I lost track of time and reapplied much later than I should have.

Good question. This stuff lasts so long that when I started to run low I purchased a new one. As of yet I have not opened it but I will also be very disappointed if it is not the same. I used the eucalliptus before and it works but was nothing special. The sandal wood on the other hand was perfect and I like it more than any other product I have ever used. I hope your case is an exception. Joe

My friend and I have used it both before and after. We started using it before we had a tan because we were very pale. It evenly tans the skin without turning orange. Then we found that it is such a good moisturizer that we kept using it! I really like it.
