D.A. asks from Los Angeles, CA
25 answers

I'm looking for a good anti-wrinkle cream for my face. Do you use one and which has been the most beneficial? Do you have any suggestions on what I can use to mix up my own face cream at home?

One thing I've noticed is that anti-wrinkle creams are expensive so I want to buy a good one the first time around!

Any and all suggestions or opinions are welcome!

if you talk to a pharmacist, they will likely tell you to look for a product that contains retinol. Luckily, even walmart makes their own brand of cream with retinol. So you don't have to spend a lot of money. My anti-wrinkle cream is a day cream with SPF 15 and pro-retinol. It is the walmart "equate" brand and costs less than $10.

First and foremost, wear sunscreen EVERY day..that is the best anti-aging formula around! The sun accounts for almost 90% of aging, I don't even walk outside without it. The only FDA approved wrinkle cream is Retin-A or Renova...I just got a prescription from my regular doc when I went in for something else, I think the generic form was like 4.00 at the Target pharmacy. For my eyes I use the Olay Pro-x eye cream, it works super good. I am 44 and still get carded, everyone wonders what my secret is! Sunscreen, I can't stress it enough!

I like Olay Age Defying Anti-Wrinkle Night Cream. I'll be 37 this year, but still occasionally get get carded when I buy or order alcohol. ;)

Day cream/sunscreen is also very important. Because I live in a very sunny area, I usually use La Roche Posay Anthelios 60 Ultra Light Sunscreen when I know I have to be outside. I have fairly oily skin, so this works just fine as my daytime moisturizer because it's light, not greasy, and works well under makeup.

I love L'Oreal Age Perfect daycream. I wear it underneath my makeup and it doesn't pill up, and keeps my face moist and not chalky or gunky.
At night I use Olay Reginerist. It's so light and makes your skin feel almost silky. I can see the difference in the morning.
Drink lots and lots of water.
Use sunscreen every day... it's easy enough now. It's it most make-up and face lotions!
Good luck!

I highly recommend the Enfuselle line by Shaklee. It's nutrition-based (Vital Repair + - 7 targeted antioxidant nutrients), backed by 7 patents, pH balanced, hypoallergenic, and never tested on animals. It's formulated without parabens, dyes, animal products or by-products, mineral oil, petrolatum, SLS, phthalates, or any other harmful chemicals. Guaranteed to see the age of your skin reverse by 10yrs in just 28 days! Vital Repair + blocks free radical damage, but also works from within the cells to create healthier skin and repair/protect premature aging.

I'm in my mid 30's and have been using this line for 2yrs now. I have acne-prone skin and it doesn't make me break out. You will absolutely love the way it feels on your skin and the results you will see. It's priced very reasonably too! Check it out at www.greennutrition.info.

The first set was given as a gift. Wow what a difference. I too have never had so many compliments on my skin. As a tired Mom it is nice to at least have your skin look perky! I am 43 and my skin looks better now than at 33 when I was still invincible! lol

I use Mary Kay Timewise Day (SPF25 built in) and Night serum, the anti-aging firming eye cream and the hydrating gel and the anti-age moisturizer.

I got married in May and a few months before that I realized I really needed to start taking better care of my skin. I wanted to look nice for the wedding, but also I turned 40 and was starting to notice a change.

At the time, I was using one type of clenser, another lotion, Olay moisturizer- they worked ok, but I was blotchy and my skin did not look its best. I really believe now that using a SET of products made to enhance each other and work together gives you a much more consistent result.

A girl I work with did Mary Kay and offered to give me a facial to figure out what products worked best for my skin.

On my wedding, everyone could not BELIEVE how great I looked- my mother said I looked 10 years younger. Now I will always take care of my skin and will never go back to just grabbing random products at the drugstore.

Use the Mary Kay Timewise- your consultant will give you a facial and take great care of you and you will absolutely not regret it! All the products are 100% guaranteed- you can return anything you don't feel satisfied with or don't like, even if you've used up half of it.

My favorite is a serum I call MOAS - Mother of All Serums! It's called ageLOC Future Serum. When I heard that the 3rd party clinicals showed that 100% of the people saw results within the first 7 days, I had to try it!

It works on:
1. fine lines & wrinkles
2. pore size
3. hydration
4. discoloration
5. smoothness of the skin
6. increase in collagen
7. brown spots
8. radiance

I've never had more compliments on my skin!

Hands down, Sensaria Natural Bodycare's line. None of the harsh chemicals, no petroleums, no sythetic perfumes, and a better value than most of the ones out there and it is spa quality with a one year guarantee.This means that you get to try it and if you don't like it, return it for a full refund! What I love about these products is that my skin looks better and younger than it did 8 1/2 years ago when I started using it and I will be 52 in a couple of weeks.

The 4 Step System includes a cleanser, toner, repair product of your choice (pick the Advanced Firming Treatment for the anti-aging), and a moisturizer for only $85 and this month you get the eye cream for free with the system. The cool thing is that this set will last you three to seven months using it twice a day! Most of the people I know it will last four to five months. A whole system for what most are paying for one product. There is also the Mineral Genesis line and the MG Gold Creme that will provide detoxifying and mineralizing to your skin, an almost instant face life, natural botox, to your skin. It costs more so it all depends on what you are looking for.

Even those with lots of sensitivities love Sensaria. It was started and created by a scientist who had lots of allergies and couldn't use anything else. www.sensaria.com/J.

If you have good or decent health insurance, you should go see your dermatologist and get a prescription for Renova or Retin A. Your insurance may even cover the cost of the prescription - mine covers some of it. Good luck!

I really like Avon’s Anew products. I don’t like how they smell, however, so I have to add a few drops of essential oil.

Avon’s products usually cost less than similar products elsewhere. After 20+ years of using Avon proucts, I decided to try becoming a rep. The website is in my profile if you want to check it out (you can get direct delivery – you don’t have to have an “avon lady” come to your house : ))

Olay “reversalist” products are also nice and not too much $$$. If you prefer something from a Healthfood store, Avalon has good ones.

Ooops, forgot the Avon website:
I happily used Avon for years. Good products, great prices. I eventually decided to become a rep. If you want to try Avon products, you can do everything on-line now and get direct delivery (products shipped to your door) with no consulation, no visits, etc. Avon always has SOME special going on too to better the prices:

http://shop.avon.com/shop/promotions.aspx?dept=promotions

If you want free samples, shoot me a private message with your address and your age range (20s-30s, 40s, 50s, 60s) and I will send you some, no questions, no obligations. : )

Good luck regardless of what you choose.
