Let's talk wrinkle creams...

[nikkiARNGwife]

Yes. I'll be 35 next month and I'm afraid the time has come for me to start battling lines and wrinkles. I have no clue what's good and what's not and since most of it is SO expensive I don't really want to do that much trial and error. Any suggestions for something that really works?

I'm not a heavy Avon purchaser, but their Anew line is fantastic, and the beauty of it is that you CAN get trial sizes and/or return what doesn't work for you. I've never had to return anything though. I'll be 29 this year but I've been using all sorts of the Anew products for 6 years now. I love them!

I use MaryKay and I really like it.

I will be 35 in August and I just started using Dr. Denese's products...it's been two weeks and I can honestly say my skin feels great. I have yet to get crows feet and hopefully this will put in off for a while longer...

The only thing I've ever used is Oil of Olay (and usually the dollar store version at that LOL) and I don't have any wrinkles yet. Of course when I get the extra weight off I might LOL.

I've been using Arbonne for a few years and will never go back.

I have used Nivea Q10 for the past few years, I really love it!

LOL this is the one thing I dread about the weight loss. No one ever believes I'm 45 (acting like I'm twelve most of the time doesn't help, either), because the fat helps make you look younger LOL My mom aged terribly when she lost all of her weight, and I know that will be an issue for me, as well. I'm ten years younger than she was at the time, but still...I'm not looking forward to aging this year in the mirror, though I will be happy about being healthier. I'll just need to embrace those lines as a reward!

Hi. here are some info about anti-aging cream ingridients:

Ingredients to Avoid
* Dioxane: (a synthetic derivative of coconut). This substance is widely used in skincare products. It often contains high concentrations of 1,4-dioxane, which is readily absorbed through the skin. I know this sounds crazy, but 1,4-dioxane is considered a chemical "known to the State of California to cause cancer". To think people pay money to put this stuff on their skin unknowingly is downright scary.
* Fragrances.
* Parabens: methyl, propyl, butyl, and ethyl paraben.
* Alcohols: ethanol, ethyl alcohol, methanol, benzyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol and SD alcohol.

Ingredients to Look For

* Collagen.
* Phytessence Wakame.
* Cynergy TK: This is a new exciting, cutting edge substance. Cynergy TK actually stimulates your own collagen to grow again. In fact, it is proven in clinical trials to stimulate not only the regrowth of collagen but also elastin, thereby promoting firmness and elasticity. In short, fewer wrinkles, and more youthful, healthier looking skin. It may help improve your skin's ability to retain its needed natural moisture.
Indeed, studies show a sustained 14% improvement in skin moisture retention over 18 days. Studies on Cynergy TK also show a sustained improvement in skin elasticity of 42% over 18 days.
* CoQ10: CoQ10 is a powerful antioxidant. A lot of skin damage and aging comes from free radicals wreaking havoc in our body's cells. CoQ10's antioxidant ability can counter these free radicals before damage occurs.

More detailed info you can see in my article
