The best wrinkle cream I've seen so far is the Nicole Miller line. It's pretty affordable (I believe it's $40 for the set of 2)

Hello Kimberly:
I am glade you are alert at the right time. Now are you interested in a cream that reduces wrinkles, or a very nutritious cream that has all the vitamins, antioxidants necessary and even natural protein to provide extreme nutrition to the skin.

An ultra supreme, formula I know comes in the form of serum, to be applied to face and neck area under make up comes as one ounce bottle with its very special applicator.

In case you are interested email me back, and I will forward you full detail.

Any product with Retinol is good.

More importantly stay out of the sun! Wear sunscreen every single day on your face without fail! I use an SPF 50 everyday. The sun is your worst enemy when it comes to wrinkles, damage does not show up for years. So what you did in your teens is showing up now. Also, use a moisturizer at night. Ponds is good and reasonable. You don't have to buy the most expensive stuff out there. My mom used Avon and then Ponds and she had the nicest skin without wrinkles.

Believe it or not, I was at Aldi the other day and they recently began to carry a complete line of skin care creams, called Lacura. They are advertised as the "#1 product in Europe", I don't know if it is true, but the clerk said they were selling like crazy and are amazingly inexpensive.
I bought one of the night cremes and just started it. I think it was 5.99 for a jar. I figured it was worth a gamble. (I went back and bought the eye cream as well.)

skip the cream and just buy extra virgin olive oil and apply a few drops to your face and neck nightly. It will last you a lifetime and is awesome.

Brand does not matter as long as it contains Vit A (retinal), Vit C (Ascorbic Acid) and Vitamin E. You should also make sure to wear a good sun block. Many creams come with SPF already in them. Many time store brand creams are just as good as the more expensive creams.

Stay in the Shade...

Kymberly,
I know you're asking about wrinkle cream but I've found that the best thing is to wear sunscreen on your face everyday all year round. Also it is important to use a non soap like Cetaphil to wash your face and don't use really hot water.

I was part of a test study 10 years ago. I still have my before and after photos if you want to see them. In one year it took 10 years off my looks. Product comes with 8 patents and it is vitamin therapy for the skin. Price wise, it's mid range. I come from the theory that you get what you pay for.

I have used Clinique for years and don't have any wrinkles. I'm 36. I use the 3 step program plus Turnaround Cream. I do know that Stop Signs works really well, too, but they just changed the formula.

THe biggest thing I do for my skin, though, is STAY OUT OF THE SUN. Use a 15 moisturizer on your face. Every. Day. of the year. Sun is the biggest cause of wrinkles and I know women my age who look so much older from the wrinkles and sun damage on their face. No tans. They are not healthy and they will not help with the wrinkles at all.

Hey Kymberly!
We women can't have that can we? I'll bet it's the products that you are using now. Even if you got a great wrinkle cream, if you use products that are cheap with SD alcohol, fragrances, dyes, mineral oil, etc. then you will be fighting a losing battle - truly! I use a great skincare regimen that has a products that are made from whole foods like mango, carrot, kiwi, pumpkin and papaya. Your skin is screaming for nutrition and will soak it up like a sponge! You are wayyyyy too young to have wrinkles so I'll bet it's your current regimen. Plus, do you drink at least 8 glasses of water a day? What a difference that will make in your skin. Are you a sun goddess? That too will dry out your skin and age it prematurely!

If you'd like more information, then just give me your email address! We only have one chance at our skin. Environmental pollutants, bad skincare and makeup, lack of good nutrition and water all play a huge part in how we look - plus our diet! There is a way to get that glow back and I'd be happy to share what I use. Here's to you and healthy skin - for life!

You are really young to have wrinkles. Do you mean laugh lines or something like that?

Make sure you use a daily moisturizer and lip balm with sun screen. I don't have any advice about wrinkle cream except that I wouldn't spend a ton because no one's discovered a miracle ingredient yet.

First off, the BEST thing to do for your skin is to wear spf 15 broad spectrum sunscreen EVERYDAY! You get sun damage just walking to your car or sitting near a sunny window-and yes even through clouds and in the winter. Also, eating a healthy balanced diet and plenty of H2O is very beneficial. I used to work for Clinique and I still have to use some of their products. They are more affordable in terms of the nicer brands but still a little pricey for me. I have found that Aldi has a very nice skin care line and for SUPER cheap too. I really like their eye cream for mature eyes (even though I am only 26) I definitely thought there was improvement. The tube was about $4, so you are not out a bunch of money if you don't care for it-plus they have a money back guarantee at Aldi. The line is called LaCura and is supposed to be European. Good Luck and stay out of the sun ;) P.S. I think it is AWESOME that you own your own Interior Design Company! That is one of my dream jobs. If you have time or don't mind....would you possibly message me about what you do and how you got started? email M. <____@____.com> Thanks!!!

Olay Regenerist Micro Sculpting cream - I love it! They even sell it at Costco in a 2-jar pack for a really good price.

I also loved the Olay Definity foam moisturizer, but found that the bottle didn't last very long for the price.

I've tried a lot of creams and moisturizers over the years, and as far as bang for your buck, Olay is the best. I am 37 (turning 38 in about 6 weeks) and people always think I am about 30-32.

Hope this helps!

Hi Kymberly,
I just turned 40 last week and have been using the same anti-wrinkle cream for about 7 years now. It's called Signature Club A Advanced 5 Essentials Creme. Very affordable at $25 for a 4.5 oz. jar that also contains a separate eye cream under the top lid. I used to have blotchy skin and larger pores in my early thirties and now my skin is clear, smooth, soft and not showing wrinkles yet! It doesn't leave a greasy feeling, my skin drinks is up. I wear it overnight and also after I wash my face in the morning. You can put your SPF moisturizer over it and then apply make-up too and it doesn't crease or cake up on you. You can buy it at HSN dot com, it's a customer pick and sometimes they have buy one get one free deals. But one jar lasts about 4-5 months so I'm hooked!!

Good luck! I know there's lots of products to choose from and everything sounds so promising and attractively packaged. Note, you should also stick to a good daily cleanser and try using a facial mask about once every few weeks to deep cleanse and exfoliate dead skin cells. Plus I drink lots of water instead of sugary drinks which helps me keep a youthful glow. Don't mean to sound like a commercial, but it's SO true at my age!!

I use Avon ANEW Ultimate with spf 25 (for 50+, but there are ANEW products for every age. It is a great product for the price. I have used Avon products for years -and look ten years younger than my twin sister (and she smokes. I have slight smile lines at my eyes but not bad for over 50. Some of the products reduce the appearance of fine lines, but the biggest part is the built in sunscreen, which prevents further damage. In addition, eat reasonably, exercise for oxygen, and drink plenty of water to saturate from the inside. A tip to prevent some of the lines -sleep on your back. Good luck.

A long time ago I started using Mary Kay. I am almost fifty two. I don't think I have a wrinkle on my face. I used it many years. It is a bit out of my budget so I started using something they sell at Aldi's and it isn't bad. Bottom line if I had the money I'd still use Mary Kay but this will do. I can't remember what it is called but it is filling several shelves at all Aldi's stores and is affordable. Sorry to the Mary Kay people because it is the best, but very expensive and they don't like it when you buy it separately.

answers from Decatur on

I would look into Arbonne or Mary Kay.

In the meantime, start saving your pennies for botox, juvederm and microdermabrasion, because these are the only things that really work. Save money by not buying a useless wrinkle cream, put it in a savings account, and in a few months you should have enough for one treatment! One treatment usually lasts about 4-6 months for the average person, and you can really make that stretch if you are on a budget.

You do need a good moisturizer, so I would try Arbonne day creme and Arbonne night creme. I am 30 also, and I see good results with those.

Best Wishes!

I sell Avon and can get you some samples of our skin creams. You can go to my website: www.youravon.com/dshea and take a look at the different ones, and let me know which you'd like to try. The solutions line would probably be your best budget bet. Just let me know I have samples on hand.
Any questions just let me know.

Thanks
