Best Anti Wrinkle Creme

The primary ingredients are 12 Organic Greek Essential Oils; orange, lemon, grapefruit, sesame, avocado, almond, chamomile, lavender, peppermint, edelweiss, and rose. It is Hypoallergenic therefore it is safe and effective for all skin types.
In a way, Athena works a lot like Botox without the pain and expense. The average user has vouched that the lines are reduced by over 80% within minutes of using it. It's not really a cream, but a lightweight putty that you mix with a little water and paint on your facial lines. The jar comes delivered in a sealed outer envelop and includes a perfect applicator brush for the product. All you do is dip the tip of the brush in water, double dab the cream
and lightly shmear it across one quarter of your face. Do that three more times, and get ready to meditate for the 7-minutes it takes to form a facelift.
After applying Athena 7 Minute Lift, or before and after, you may need a moisturizer that's richer than you previously used as this product can be quite drying. You may need a richer makeup foundation, but you are advised against oil-based products.

AlphaDermaCE
This product by Janson Beckett, introduced in 2004, AlphaDermaCE is is a total skin rejuvenating treatment that will amaze you after the first application. If you have dry skin you should add the day time moisturizer and your skin will look and feel the best it has in years. It is a total skin rejuvenating treatment.
AlphaDermaCE contains 10% Argireline. Which works similar to Botox as it blocks the nerve signals that control the contraction of facial muscles. This produces a significant reduction in both the depth and size of fine lines and wrinkles. But unlike Botox there are no needles involved.
PentaPeptide (Leuphasyl) is a new amino acid that contains five peptides, impairing muscle contraction is what makes the skin look younger and mitigates wrinkles and their formation. Elastin concentrate,100% rare, costly, freeze-dried powdered – which has almost 100% amino acid content, making this product 10x more potent than any other standard Elastin products used in the U.S. or abroad
All of these products are safe for all ages and skin types. They are not tested on animals and you can find a full line of products for all skin care needs. And these products not only treat, but protect against the effects of aging.
Natural Skin Care
Number 2
Princess Livia Bee Pollen Nectar Face Cream
This product originates from an ancient beauty secret and formulated with precious Bee Pollen Extract.The ingredients are; Bee Pollen Extract, Prunus Armeniaca (Apricot) Kernel Oil, Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil, Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Zea Mays (Corn) Oil.
It is scented, so it may cause an allergic reaction in sensitive people but it can be good for sensitive skin. It can clear up inflammations caused by environmental factors like wind or sun rash.I noticed that it fills in fine lines and eventually makes them nearly invisible.
The best part is you will love the feel of your skin immediately after application.
While this face cream does not contain the hard hitting restorative components touted by all the other cremes on this list, this anti-wrinkle cream does pack a serious punch when it comes to those fine lines that you can see but that are not really full-fledged wrinkles yet. This is a preventative cream and not intended to heal seriously damaged or “mature” skin. And the price of this skin cream can not be beat. This skin care line is one of those hidden gems that if you are lucky enough to stumble upon it, you will never give it up.
I also love the Lip Balm. .you simply must try it!
Younger Looking Skin

you dawg you .. pretty funny are you . .thanks for starting my day out with a giggle. . and it is not having the baby that causes the wrinkles it is you men who make us women stay up for all the feeding when they are small and then as they get bigger it is us women who wait up till they get home!
But I am glad your skin is lovely .. mine aint so bad either. . thanks to my gene pool ..
Always a pleasure to see your Sir Charles;)

Coz you lady would always look beautifull, no metter what. lol! More then those expensive creams we need a good load of water to drink everyday.

Let me know your results if you try any of them.
Great comparisons of anti-wrinkle creams. But, sheesh, they are not cheap. I guess if they were, we wouldn't see any old looking ladies!
Dolores Monet - That was too funny. When you least expect it someone does that to me ;) I know they arent cheap. . but as my grandmother used to say. . you pay for what you get!! Thanks for stopping by and giving me a smile for the day!!

Very interesting hub!

Great article - I love Dr. Brandt products. I may try one of these newer ones you have recommended.

How do I know which one is better for fine lines
maria - first it depends on your type of skin . .whatever you do . make sure you start out with a clean face and never go without moistuizing with a spf for day and a night cream! Oh and dont forget your eye area:)
My skin is on the dry side so which one do you think would be better to get rid of fine lines around my mouth thank you very much
maria - I think the Clarins line may be good for you. Personally I love the entire line .. And the Princess Livia Bee Pollen is wonderful as well. Let me know how you make out . . just remember dry skin must be hydrated at all times!
thanks for your reviews.
Hi, what do you think about Guerlain? I use Happylogy, and I am so pleased. Let me hear your opinion about that brand and its products... 10x ;)))
Elena,I have not yet tried Guerlains Happylogy- but you can bet any product that claims to use uch a unique complex that it stimulates the release of endorphins and recreates the effects of happiness on the skin is something I must look into! Thanks for stopping by- I will update with the Happylogy soon:)
Lol - I clicked on this link from Twitter and finally made the connection b/w Shari and Wavelength. I thought you were 2 different people.
Great Hub - It's so nice that you noted the ingredients. Not sure which one to try. However, if I spot the slightest wrinkle, I'll be back. :)
~ Lady_E - a smile has just come over my face:) yes shari and wave. . one in the same :)))
As far as the wrinkle stuff. . . good genes come into play as well . .just remember though. it is never to soon to take good care!
Thanks for the reviews. 1) My skin is not at all dry; it's pretty normal, maybe leans to the oily side a tad. I don't really have a problem with wrinkles yet, but I have dark spots from the sun. A few months back I purchased Clinique's new dark spot correction serum and it hasn't worked at all. Which of these do you think would work best for that? 2) Mom has very dry skin and lots of deep wrinkles due to thyroid problems. She's also tried lots of things. Which do you think would be best for her? I find it hard to believe the 7 minute lift would really work, but I'll have her try it if you say so.
Interesting read. Thanks for listing the ingredients in some of the reviews. I make my own skin and hair care products, so I like to see what ingredients are included in the "top" products.
kw86 - so many swear by the 7 minute lift! Let me know how you like it.
OldenbuzzDotCom - thanks for stopping by. I must come see your hubs cause I to like to make my own concoctions!
I was in the search for a perfect wrinkle face cream, which would allow my makeup to go on smoothly, I researched Athena before I made the purchase and I found out in your hub. The facts that are stated are true. I found it to work wonderfully on my lips, it prevented the lipstick to feather and filled in the slight lip lines. My makeup looks wonderful over the athena 7 min lift. The cream is applied with a dampened brush, and dries within 7 minutes, be sure not to make any facial expressions while it is drying. It does not feel stiff once dry..it is amazing stuff..now I am in search for a stronger product for my jowls to compliment the athena. I am always looking forward on this hub....:-)
would u review this product for my? my friend says it is good, but i like the other products you reviewed. it is advanskin dermcorrect serum.
do u know anything about roc products
I have used many anti-aging products, I am 58 and have been told I have amazing skin. The most important things to remember, no sun on your face, sunglasses winter thru summer, always wash and moisturize every morning and night. Don't smash your face into your pillow, try to sleep on your back. I know it is a lot of work, but the look on people's faces when I tell my age, which I am not ashamed of, is priceless!
I travel ALL the time and find that most creams (including dr. Brandt and 24/7 dry out badly on the plane and are essentially ruined). This happens to liquid base also. I started using benefit playsticks for coverage but am in need of a seriously strong anti wrinkle cream for eyes that won't dehydrate in the jar. Suggestions?
Good hub with good information on a good subject - trying to look young even when you know you're old!
is there any for men? hehe..
btw.. good list.. good hub too..
icsun - just because these anti aging products are advertised for woman doesnt mean that they arent great skincare products for men . .which they all are!
There is no mention of Bellamora on here...
Thanks for the article. I was surprised not to see anything from www.zsazsaluxe.com on here. I think these products are new, but nothing I've ever bought even remotely compares to how dramatic the results are!
IM 26 IN THE U.S ARMY AND CURRENTLY STATIONED IN KS. MY SKINS REALLY DRY DUE TO WEATHER. I AM IN NEED OF ANYONES ADVICE, OPINIONS,OR INFO ON GREAT SKIN CARE PRODUCTS. I AM WANTING TO GET A HEADSTART ON PREVENTING WRINKLES. ANYONE HAVE ANY GOOD PRODUCTS?
there are a lot of products for anti aging cream but if you really want to get younger looks faster than you wanted you better try the botox surgery.
Botox Melbourne
Andy, good that you use a good moisturizer. Im glad you took a look at all the options available.
Very informative hub and thank you for all the different postings of product. I am in love with Nu Skin. The have a product called Facelift which is very similar to this product in your video. Their AgeLoc Transformation line is the best I have tried. Used with the galvanic spa will take years off in five minutes but over time you build collagen, helps with hyperpigmentation, tone and texture is dramatically improved. Very effection product and I feel they are affordable if you are a preferred customer or distributor. Hydration is the key to preventing the aging. Again great post.
Sarah - Building collagen as we know is the key to keeping our skin young looking as is hydration.
Hey there wavegirl thank you for so much info! so i am currently using separate ingredients that i layer on top of each other every morning and / or eve. Morning i do vit c serum, then i do matryxil, then HYAluronic Acid, then my fav moisturiser, eveniing I start with cp serum, then agian matryxil. In the evening also twice or 3 times a week i start with 0.05 retin a.
My skin really improved i should say and the lines arent that deep anymore!
Now,I am using a bio cream and very happy with it, but i like to change moisturisers and I am ready to give even Creme de la mer or La Prairie a go! I want something really effective to reduce the wrinkls especially on my forehead. And a good eye cream as well. So my quesiton is, since I use the right ingredients separately...what ingredients shall i look for in a moisturiser so i dont use the ones with hyaluronic acid and vit c and matryxil? I am really really keen to remove these lines , few around eyes and forehead. I dont mind how much money i spend! any suggestions? I am ready to try the La Mer if it is worth it!!
I am 35 years old.

Great list - I don´t know many of the mentioned creams but from what I´ve tried so far I think that Lifecell is the best..
Can't help loving the Greek goddes look! Cleopatra rocks but every goddes Greek or roman is hot in 2011!
Thanks for the Great post!
Have you tried the brand "Bel Col" from Brazil? Their products are among the best on the market. If you haven't, do it :)
I thought Obagi would be 1 of the top 10 anti aging and wrinkle creams. I used it for a while and my skin was like porceline. Never I had such perfect skin. But is so expensive could not keep up with the cost.
Try Olay Regenerist serum for anti wrinkle.. It works not not expensive
What do you think about Juice Beauty? I tried Stri Vectin and it made my skin breakout, and it s not great. Just okay. I've tried so many products over the years. I'm 54 years old. I tried Juice Beauty, got it from the Skin Store. It's all natural ingredients, many are organic, it soaks right in, makes my skin soft and glow, gets rid of wrinkles, it doesn't break my skin out, and it is such a powerful moisturizer, I can use it every other day. I lie out in the sun and swim all of the time. I put the Juice Beauty on after sun and swimming, after my shower, and it is never dry, no burn. It's like the WEN of skin moisturizers, IMO. It's off the charts better than Avon and Oil of Olay.
i'm just 21 years old but yet i got wrinkles around my mouth area. can i know is there any effective way to remove it away and yet affordable? can it be remove or it will stay there permanently? =(
Honestly ladies...I hate to burst your bubble, there is no cream on earth that makes your wrinkles go away trust me I know. Even one smart honest person that works at the beauty dept even told me, no matter how much a person spends on creams from 10.00 to 500.00, there is nooo mircle cream all these consumers are just getting your hard earn money. I love my laught lines and my soft looking wrinkles im confortable in who I am.
Good luck!!
but you've not been specific on which age one should start using those creams.Don't they damage the skin when started too early?
It's never to early to start using a good anti aging moisturizer. The reason you want to use one that is age appropriate is so that the ingredients that are in the product target the issues and therefore will benefit your skin!!
I used the Athena 7 minute lift and it actually made my skin WORSE. It's so dry and there are more wrinkles than before. Is it because I have dry skin to start? Any product recommendations to rehydrate my skin? Thanks loads!

My goodness, you really do know your face/anti-wrinkle creams, Shari! One cream you forgot is Pearl Cream (or Puuurl Caweem, as the Chinese lady in the infomercial pronounces it). The only things I normal use is Palmer's cocoa butter or Neutrogena Butter Cream (expensive sh*t compared to Vaseline lotion). Check out my face :D
Thanks, Shari. Is this why you look so fabulous all the time?
