| | | I'm 25 with wrinkles under my eyes, and need info on an anti-aging cream that works! I'm 25 years old and already started to get wrinkles under my eyes. They are tolerable but when I smile I look horrible. I've been using a couple anti-aging serums but they aren't working. How much does Botox cost and how often do you have to get it done? Is there a really good anti-aging cream/serum/etc that I can use? Do you have any experience with good anti aging products? When do people normally start to form wrinkles? Please help me! I don't want to look like this yet! | | | | | | |

| Im only 18 but i seem to know all this already as my mum is totally obsessed with line free skin!!!!!!!!!!
Basically dont go buying any expensive products because they do not work! I got a night and day cream and an eye serum which came up to £60 i know its not that expensive but still its only a cream! It was that Dr Nick Lowe (u can get it in boots) she said it was quite good
My mum has tried every cream there possibly is, but she loves Olay, i think its total effect? So she just sticks to that now!
Shes also tried the peels aswell i think its derma whatever. And she didnt like it cuz it made her skin feel awful and didnt really do anything
I think what u have to realise is, there is no quick fix when it comes to aging of the skin. U have to actually use the creams religiously for years and years to notice any difference as by law they are not aloud to make 'miracle' products they can only do as they say on the box by a small percentage, because of things like botox. I hope that makes sense!!
Thats also why they say to start using ani wrinkle cream BEFORE u get wrinkles, i went for a makeover/treatment thing and the lady there said "u've got lovely skin, but maybe u should start using anti aging products in a year or 2" so obviously i was quite shocked!!
As for botox, if ur really desperate to get rid of them then thats ur only choice really. My mum has botox now too. She loves it, and it does work. It usually cost around a £100 i think, dont take my word for it though. Only bad thing about it is u have to keep going back!
Do u go on the sunbeds at all? And do u use a good moisturiser?
Sorry ive wrote such an essay |

| Most premature aging or wrinkles are caused by sun exposure, genetics, sleeping habits or stress. Unfortunately, there are no products that can slow or stop the signs of aging. The only way to effectively remove wrinkles on the face and neck is by cosmetic surgery. However, I think people in their 20's are too young to start using Botox. You might want wait until you're in 30's if you're consider Botox injections. There are wrinkle eye creams that can help reduce lines and wrinkles, but the creams are a temporary solution. Look for anti-aging eye creams that contains Vitamin K, Retinol, alpha hydroxy acids, Vitamin A and Vitamin C & E to help reduce and improve of the appearance fine lines and wrinkles under your eyes. |

First things first, you have to STOP SMOKING (if you smoke), STOP TANNING AND PLAYING IN THE SUN (if you tan and play in the sun), and wear sunglasses ALL THE TIME. Anytime you are outside, wear sunglasses. Also, make sure you are always wearing a broad spectrum sunscreen anytime you are outside. Now, to deal with the wrinkles you currently have, check out Beauty Blog: Battle Plan for Wrinkles
And to find out more about botox check out: Beauty Blog: To Botox Or Not...
Botox does help a lot, but the cost is an issue for some people, and you will have to get it about every 6 months. To minimize the fine lines right now, without botox, invest in a state of the art moisturizer, which is extremely emollient. To minimize my fine lines around my eyes, I use Nieva Creme (super cheap, but a great moisturizer). Although it is a great moisturizer, I do have a greasy looking eye area, but I can deal with it, because it is just around my eye area.
Good luck!  |

| Hi,
I started developing pretty bad facial wrinkles after I crossed 35. I was pretty upset about it as I really didn't whink my skin would start degrading in my 30s. I tried altering my diet, took a lot of dark coloured vegetables such as beetroot and tomatoes as these were supposed to be good for wrinkles and also drank plenty of water. It didn't really work though and my Doctor had even suggested that I go for a Debrassion treatment to fade out my wrinkles. I then recently read an article by a lady who claimed that she got rid of her wrinkles using a particular anti-wrinkle product. I tried it and it worked really well. Within 4 weeks my wrinkles had faded out and were barely visible. Really good stuff. You can read more about the lady's article at the link below. Wrinkles - It Can Be Treated |
