Do anti wrinkle creams really work? If so, why do certain international celebrities appear on TV swearing by a certain anti aging cream when it's so obvious they have been fully botoxed? If their anti-aging cream is so amazing why do they need a facelift?
All wrinkle or anti-aging creams promise to reduce wrinkles and several claim to reverse sun damage, but how much of this is true?
Research suggests some anti-wrinkle creams contain various active properties that could improve the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines on your face but if you're expecting an overnight facelift in a jar, you'll probably be disappointed. The effect of an anti-aging cream will all depend on how well it suits your skin, how long you use it for and how many active ingredients it contains.
What To Look out for When Buying an Anti Wrinkle Cream
Next time you're going shopping for an anti-aging cream, look out for any of the following ingredients:
For instance, Neutrogena Ageless cream has been branded the best anti-wrinkle product through the various products on Amazon. I noticed that it had well over 100 reviews from actual customers and had a star rating well into the fours, nearly as high as Amazon's star ratings can go. Slightly skeptical, I read product description and then skipping to the reviews. I found countless people of different age groups and gender, saying that as an overnight moisturizer, it doesn't leave one's face feeling caked up or greasy. Its smooth, silky, and mild fragrance suits the skin. Others having been using the product for more than 2 years especially due to its anti-wrinkle essential ingredients which can be applied by individuals allergic to tea extracts.
Therefore ladies, before you go and spend crazy amounts of money on an anti-aging cream remember to check the ingredients and try to find any research that's been carried out on them. Also remember that what your friend swear by isn't necessarily going to work for you but it'll give you a better insight on how to rank the cream. Finally, if you maintain a balanced diet and do plenty of exercise, you probably won't need an anti-wrinkle cream anyway!

Other than Neutrogena products (which are quite effective but expensive), what other ways can I conceal my uneven skin tones on my face?
ReplyDelete@Jessy Mbogo Anti-aging creams such as neutrogena removes wrinkles and hence make your skin younger. To hide uneven skin tones, I'll suggest you use a make-up concealer. The best type is mineral make-up concealer, which blendes into your skin without looking mask-like. First, you cleanse and moisturize your skin. By using your fingertips or sponge pat it on the areas where it is most needed such as under your eyes, spots and sun burns. Do not apply it all over your face. then finish with loose setting powder to keep it natural and long lasting all day long. If you're in the City of Nairobi, its available at Forever Living Studio, Hurlingham.
