1. Distinguish from the perspectives of color, taste and feeling.
Rogaine is slightly light yellow in color, has a slight mellow taste and is spicy, and it feels oily when applied to the skin.
2. Distinguish from the perspective of price.
A bottle of Rogaine imported from the United States is 60 ml, which is about 118 yuan. Prices lower than this are generally fake.
3. Look at the trademark.
In the United States and other regions, the trademark used is ROGAINE. In Taiwan, ROGAINE is used, and its Chinese name is By-Jian. In Hong Kong, the English trademark REGAINE is used. If it's any other trademark, it's all fake.
4. Look at the ingredient list. The real "Rogaine" ingredient list is as follows:
Active Ingredient: Minoxidil 5% w/v. (5% Minoxidil)
Inactive Ingredients:: Alcohol (alcohol), 30% v/v propylene glycol (propylene glycol), 50% v/v, and purified water (purified water)
5. Identify from the perspective of purchasing agents.
If "Rogaine" is purchased through a regular agent, there should be a customs clearance form that can also be used as a reference. Ask the purchasing agent to give you the international logistics tracking number, and then go to the corresponding official website to check it yourself.
