Expensive Anti-Aging Cream No Better Than Cheap Moisturizer

Posted by Sandy
March 27, 2007

Women spend hundreds if not thousands of dollars each year on expensive anti-ageing creams. But the pricey creams may not be all they are cracked up to be and in many cases the same effect can be achieved by using plane old, inexpensive moisturiser.

Women need to be careful to not to be taken in by fancy advertising or “scientific sounding words” For example, “These emollients are specially formulated with aqua and humectants.” In plain English this means, “These lotions and creams contain water and moisturisers. Also, it is probably a good idea to avoid products that claim to offer ‘miracles’; if it sounds to good then it probably will succeed in taking your money and nothing else.

Often times the fine print tells you the real truth about the product with statements like, “has not been proven to have a physical lifting effect” or “although it has been designed to target problem areas around the thighs and bottom it has not been proven to have a slimming effect.” The advertising or names of these products often times leads consumers to believe the opposite of the truth.

The products that do work tend to only have the same effect as a simple inexpensive moisturiser would. Wrinkles deepen and increase with time. Bar having a facelift the only way to reduce the appearance of wrinkles is by using creams and makeup. However, it seems that all the expensive anti-aging creams do is get absorbed by the skin, swells up and give the temporary appearance of fewer wrinkles. The exact same effect can be achieved by using a standard moisturiser that does not claim to contain any fancy ingredients such as peptides, retinal, c-60 and boswelox.

There are a number of factors that contribute to the development of wrinkles. One of the main factors discovered by scientists appears to be your genes. Wrinkles will probably run in the family. Take a look at your mother’s face; it is likely you will development a similar level of wrinkles.
