Wrinkle remedy?

8 replies

Joey8 · 15/07/2015 09:46

So I confess I have never had a proper skin care regime or ever used an anti-wrinkle cream but now I am noticing very distinct 'laughter lines' or crows feet.

Any tips on reducing these or preventing any more?!

I heard Argan oil was good?

What does everyone else use?

Vaseline. On the outward corner of your eyes every night.

It may be a bit late, but I heard this tip on daytime TV when I was a 21 year old student. I've done it ever since. I'm now 43. I have lots of other issues with age (saggy chin, mouth lines, weight problems) but I've not got a hint of a crows foot!

Darn it! I wish I had started this sooner! Getting right on this with the vaseline!

Retinol is, apparently, the anti aging ingredient of choice.

I've only been using it a few weeks so it's a bit soon to say if it's all its cracked up to be.

Haha! quietbatperson I definitely think all those contribute too! Fingerscrossed I have good genes!

Oh right, well let us know how successful Retinol is!

In the meantime I'm going to buy a big tub of Vaseline...which isn't meant to sound dodgy in the slightest.

At least it's cheap Joey! I can't say how long it may take to see a difference as I've been using it since before I was officially oldGrin hope it makes a difference.

I could do with mouth/laughter lines help too. I'll look into retinol.

Joey8 · 15/07/2015 13:12

Me too! I'm going to get some today and start using it tonight!

I keep hearing good things about Argan oil too so look into that as well :-)
