Has anyone managed to improve those lines that go from your nose to your mouth?

without botox or fillers? I really don't want to go down that route but these lines are driving me mad- thanks

Marking my place with interest. I hate those nose to mouth lines, have been thinking about having fillers, but saw a lady the other day who had such a puffy look to the area between nose and mouth it has put me right off. Is there a magic potion?

There are no creams that can remove wrinkles (if they were able to they would be pharmaceutical grade & prescribed as medicine) so moisturise yes but don't waste money on magic potions as they won't help.
Fillers will fill & look puffy, botox will more than likely help most significantly but not knowing much about it I'd maybe suggest speaking to a qualified botox nurse before writing off or going ahead &I maybe google for before & after pics.
Other than that, make up! Make sure your blusher isn't close to these areas/can creep in to the creases & use a highlighting illuminating pen like touché éclat to reflect light off of them.

I think they're called nasolabial folds. A really good moisturiser should help a little but won't lessen them much at all. I can't say I'd go the route of botox though... I'm not keen on injecting stuff (isn't it a poison) and then there's the upkeep. Maybe you could minimise them with a little YSL Touche eclat? Isn't that light reflective? If you use just a little I think it might help somewhat...
About 2 minutes' in shows how to apply to these folds:

It's actually just before 2 minutes' in :)

Watch first two mins of this. He had fillers in the nasolabial folds and disliked the effect.
