The Best Help Against Wrinkles And Signs Of Aging

By Jen Hopkins

It has been said that nothing can stop the natural process of aging. Some of the customers who reviews the markets top wrinkle and aging solutions agree; others don't. This article will show you the best anti aging and anti wrinkle creams out there and the worst so you know what to buy and what not to.

There are two that consistently fit into the latter category. These products consistently failed to impress their users. Fusion Beauty Lift/Fusion Eye Lift consistently received ratings of two stars or less from several sources. Its main fault is that it does nothing. According to three-fourths of those customers who reviewed the product, it does nothing to reduce wrinkles or other signs of aging. The second that should be avoided is Dermitage. According to their product description, this cream reduces visible wrinkles in as little as one hour. In real life, however, it is a product that receives one star and does nothing.

Don't give up hope yet, though. Two products did stand out from the rest and made it to the top of our list. Fake Bake Self-Tanning Lotion reduces toxins in your skin and provides a natural looking tan at the same time. And you will feel the effects from Juliet's Anti-Aging Cream about 24 hours after you use it. It makes skin feel luxurious and soft.

While there are several options available commercially, there are also things you can make at home that are just as effective. Here are a few of the best. Egg whites applied to the skin under your eyes will help reduce wrinkles there, and odor-free castor oil can be applied there, too, as well as the throat. Combining the contents of three vitamin E capsules, two teaspoons of plain yogurt, a half teaspoon of honey and a half teaspoon of lemon juice also works quite well when applied to the face using a cotton ball. All you have to do is leave it on for ten minutes and rinse it off.

These are the worst of home remedies. A mixture of 1/4 cup comfrey infusion, 1/4 cup witch hazel and 10 drops of patchouli essential oil is effective in treating wrinkles. This can be stored in a clean bottle and applied on affected areas with a cotton ball, this remedy didn't work at all, just made peoples faces wet.

To recount the best remedies out of all categories I have included this section. The best of the commercial section were the Fake Bake Self-Tanning Lotion and the Julietas Anti-Aging Cream. The best of home remedies were:applying egg whites to the skin under your eyes, Odor-free castor oil can be applied to the skin under the eyes or on that of the throat and Empty the contents of 3 Vitamin E capsules into a small bowl. Add to this 2 tsps plain yogurt, 1/2 tsp honey and 1/2 tsp lemon juice. Apply this mixture on the face using a cotton ball. Leave it on for 10 minutes and rinse.

You should avoid the witch hazel solution at all costs. This was by far the worst of all products or home remedies tried. It did cost less, however, than its commercial counterparts, the Fusion Beauty Lift/Fusion Eye Lift and Dermitage.

Well, now you know the best and the worst anti-aging and wrinkle creams out there. When you go out shopping for one, remember this bit of common sense: if it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is. - 15343
