Cheapest Anti-wrinkle cream WHICH WORKS?!?

if any of them really worked no-one would have wrinkles....
but we still keep in trying. It doesn't get rid of them but it fills them in - Dr Feelgood by Benefit, alternatives are Loreal (didn't work for me though) or one by Virgin Vie.
A trick to make you look younger is to use a pink blusher in the apples of your cheek!0 -
I am using the Aldi range at the moment. I have a sensitive skin and am ok so far.
Bio oil is also very good although it might be a bit heavy for the eye area. About a tenner but you need only the tiniest bit. My bottle has lasted for months.
I often make up my own potions using grapeseed oil as a base - about £1 for a large bottle and then add my own essential oils - frankensence is recommended for wrinkles. About £5 for a bottle but because it is diluted with the grapeseed oil it will last for ages.
In places like Spain and Italy they simply use olive oil. (Not when out in the sun though).
I agree with other posters who say drink plenty of water, your skin might be quite dehydrated even though you may not feel thirsty. (Central heating and cold winds dry out the skin).
Taking primrose oil capsules is also supposed to be beneficial. I've just started so can't really say how well it is working. Apparently it does take a while to see any real benefit - at least three months.0
