I've read and heard reviews discussing some sort of new formula that is less effective than the original formula.Which formula or version is this one?

I don't know what is the version, but in my personal opinion works very well... I received many compliments!

Hi Dora, I didn't purchases this from Amazon, I purchased the "new" formula from a local beauty shop in my neighborhood. And as per on of the sales clerks it was the newer version. I am sorry I don't fully understand or am knowledgable about all of the ingredients. I know that the products works well with my 3c hair.

Yes I too have noticed a marked difference in the "new" formula. I will probably switch to Latisse also but have not sooner because of the possibility of my eye color changing like they say it can. But my pretty lashes are no longer..)-: AND it's more expensive!!

Sorry for the delay in response, as far as I understand no. I checked the ingredients on both the new "look" and the older version and nothing seems to be different.

I bought the original formula (the White tops). I haven't tried the new formula (black top), but I heard it's thicker and not as effective as it used to be.

I'm on vacation so can't check, but I'm pretty sure it's from the old batch... guess I'm taking my chances. A lot of times "new and improved" means they change the original formula and then it turns out to be an allergen for me. Right now the old formulated Bufferin is the ONLY analgesic I can tolerate.

I haven't noticed any change over the years, I primarily use the powder formulas. I did try the gel laundry booster, and didn't think it was as effective as the powder formulations. It wouldn't be out of the question for a formula to change, though. Companies alter formulas on occasion for a variety of reasons. Many car waxes have changed the formulas over the years to meet clean air standards in large States where they sell lots of product. Rather than have two two product mixes, they simply one with less solvent then the product have before, like unfinished did.

Well we got the same thing, & from previous experiences my guess would be that either they were out of a less potent product so they gave you a slightly better version of the same thing, or that they possible discontinued the 65% & statred making an improved 75% product. It should be a little bit better in my opinion but if there is still any doubt you could always contact the seller, they were extrememly polite, prompt & helpful to me. I really hope that this helped you, thanks for asking! Goodbye...

Short answer: NO. Long answer: I bought this about 2 months ago & looked everywhere for the original version. Couldn't find it. Whenever I did think that I found the old formula, it was just the old image... I've talked to customer support on a few different sites, and there seems to be an issue with the ingredient "alpha yohimbine". I found this to be odd since it has no side effects, but all you can find anywhere is yohimbine hcl, which, if you've had it, you know there are plenty of side effects if you take too much of it. Amazon needs to update this image though because you will get the new, watered down version.

I think the new formula, which is more coarse, clumps WAY better and therefore reduces odor b/c the clumps don't break up when you scoop them.

It seems I read somewhere, and wish I could quote the source, that apparently the old formula had some chemical that the EPA has banned since the original Jubilee of the 50"s through 70's. Consequently, the new Jubilee wouldn't be exactly the same, which may account for the milder scent. It still works just like the old Jubilee. You might try doing an internet search of Jubilee and find more specific info...

I am not sure about those formulas. I don't use this one anymore unfortunately. I use an organic formula

I am still using the old version. I have lost 5.5 pounds the first 10 days. I eat normally but cut out processed carbs (bread cereals etc). Mostly protein fruit & vegetables nuts. I exercise 30mins a day 5 days. So i am not putting a huge effort in to it , but am still loosing on the old formula .

The new formula of Solar Protection is extremely greasy. I used to use the older product (in a white and beige tube) and I used to love it. The new formula is awful so I switched to Tizo 3 and love love love it. Not greasy and perfect under makeup.

I just purchased this. When it arrived it was the ADVANCED formula with FRAGRANCE. I called the sending company and they said that GOJO-PURELL has discontinued the ORIGINAL (unscented) but has used the same item numbers. The selling company is going to contact Amazon to request this item picture be changed. I am very disappointed with this switch. Why do companies give "new and improved" when we like the old product better?!Another clarification note: Upon use, it has a strong rubbing alcohol odor (like the original)--when that dissipates the scent is very, very mild, nearly unscented...but there is some scent included.

Apparently the formula was changed...it used to be a cream. Mixing won't help. It still does a god job, even in that state...Regards

I'm sorry to hear that you had such a bad reaction. I haven't experienced that. I'm no longer taking this but I've dropped to a formula that has less melatonin because I always like to take the least amount that is effective. The ingredients are listed in the second picture of the bottle.
