My mum got me started on aldi Q10 cream, I used to use expensive lotions and potions but this ones great. My mum is late 60s a smoker but looks in her 50s so just goes to show X |

My favourite is nip + fab the snake venom range, the eye gel is fantastic, it does not give permanent results but it smooth the skin under your eyes temporarily, you rub a bit under your eyes and leave it 10 mins and as it drys it's tightens so it stretches out the skin giving a smoother appearance, the effects last long enough for a night out
I also love the night cream in the same range |

Stay out of the sun, don't smoke (if you've already indulged heavily in either, you're screwed). Eat well, avoid sugar, get plenty of sleep, stay hydrated.
These will do more for you than any topical cream. |

It has a lot to do with genetics & looking after your skin from a young age, using a high SPF, not smoking for example.
I use the No7 specifically produced for my age group  I do think it helps the appearance of the skin & is an effective moisturiser.
A fringe helps for forehead wrinkles  |

My genetics was great, awesome skin and I was doing well.
Unfortunately I had some seriously heavy UV light exposure for medical reasons and now my skin is fucked. It's been a shock, I've gone from still being ID'd for alcohol a handful of years ago to, well, E.T.

The only anti wrinkle product that has been scientifically proven to do anything is the boots one, there was huge demand for it when it first launched and it was selling for 10 times the actual cost on ebay.
Most other products are nothing more that expensive moisturisers and a complete waste of money. A generous regular application of cheap moisturiser is just as good, if not better.
How you age is mostly down to genetics. Lifestyle does play its part but for most of us the damage to our skin is done decades before the wrinkles show up. |

In that case, no OTC product is going to work, see a dermatologist if you want a result for your money, there are treatments which can help with UV damage, but they don't come in a jar. |

Zero wrinkles so far, I was a sun worshipper so i dodged that one, I don't wear make up unless I'm at work or out. Never use soap on my skin as it's sensitive and slather on Clinique moisturiser, it's worked so far. My mum and nan are pretty wrinkled but both have had major medical treatments that have affected their skin so I dunno if it's genetic ? My sister still gets ID at 35 so maybe it is? |

"What works? What doesn't?
*sob*  "
None make that much of a difference it's mainly to make money out of women who feel insecure about ageing. They make slight difference but not much. |

I use l'oreal vita lift.
Everyday when I get out of the shower. Wash my face with good soap first, to cut the grease, then moisturise.
I have no idea if it's working, bit, I don't look too bad for 40, and my skin has never been better. |
