Are anti-age creams just a fad?
Filed in archive Beauty on December 16, 2006
According to WebMD, the most of currently available anti-age creams serums and lotions don't really do what they promise.
"In their first-ever investigation to compare wrinkle creams, Consumer Reports investigators tested nine products, ranging in price from $38 to $335.
Light-skinned women between the ages of 30 and 70 used the creams as recommended by the manufacturers on one side of their face for 12 weeks, while using a moisturizer with sunscreen on the other side.
The investigation found only slight improvements overall in wrinkles for any of the tested products."
As it turned out, the cream that performed the best was Olay Regenerist which is at a price of $18 probably the cheapest anti-age cream one can get. There you have it - you don't need to spend a fortune buying miracle whips and special Amazon-ingredient filled lotions.
But, before you dash off to the nearest drugstore to buy the whole range of Olay Regenerist products in an amount that would last you a lifetime, be warned that even that cream has mild effects. As experts say, there is very little anti-age creams can do with already existing wrinkles.
Which brings me to my already established opinion: wear sunscreen, it's the best and most efficient way to prevent wrinkles.
