All manufacturers supplying the marketcosmetic industry wrinkle cream, assure that their products are the highest quality, reliable and best. But, as you know, trust the advertisement, but do not worry yourself! It is not always worth believing loud statements that they have discovered a new, unknown substance, which in two or three weeks will remove even deep age and facial wrinkles, will tighten the skin and make it smooth, elastic, like an infant. 
Cream for wrinkles: fiction or reality?
It is worth pondering, a rejuvenating cream isinnovative discoveries or a new invention of advertisers? Unfortunately, not every surgeon can turn back the clock, not to mention the usual jar of a new remedy. After all, if this product really had such unique abilities, then it would most likely be considered a medicine, not a normal make-up. But nevertheless it is not necessary to think that a cream against wrinkles is a waste of finances and time, because if you start using really good, certified and proven products on time, and not when a lot of wrinkles appear on your face, aging can be postponed for ten years, fifteen. A distinctive feature of this category of goods is that its production has not yet been taken under strict control, therefore manufacturers can name their invention as anything, even "a remedy for facial wrinkles", even "a mixture of cucumber and honey." What exactly should contain an effective wrinkle cream and in what quantity, do not always know some digging, not to mention the fair sex representatives. 
What does the packaging hide?
Everyone has long studied the basic rulethe fact that if the book can not be judged by the cover, then the cream is for beautiful and bright advertising. But the fair sex still continue to make the same mistake - they buy an advertised product in a beautiful jar. In fact, this is not surprising, because managers spent more than one hundred rubles (or dollars) to make the tube attractive even for those who did not plan to buy it. Therefore, before you put the selected product in the basket, inspect it again and study its composition.
- Collagen
Despite the loud statements of manymanufacturers about the magic properties of this ingredient, this substance does not penetrate the skin, which is known to any chemist or biologist. Its molecules simply are not able to overcome the barrier exposed by the human body, since their size is too large for this. In other words, they remain on the surface, and with the first washing they are completely washed away. But, on the other hand, there will be no harm from these substances.
- Retinol
It is this component that can stimulatethe production of collagen in the human body, it also positively affects the regeneration of cells of small blood vessels, so its benefits are undeniable. However, there also exists its "but" - similar products are usually sold in pharmacies, with most - only on prescription. To ensure that this cream remains effective for as long as possible, it should be stored in a tight, tight container (tube, jar) in a dark, dry and inaccessible place for extraneous places, since direct sun rays for retinol are a time bomb. A few hours in the sun - and this tool can be discarded, since there will be no benefit from it. The only negative of this substance is that it can cause a serious allergy. Therefore, in order not to walk a few days with a red, mottled and rashy face, first use the cream on a small patch of skin. If earlier you did not use such a tool, introduce it into complex care gradually (at first not more often than two or three times a week). Another nuance is the increased sensitivity of the skin to external stimuli, which manifests itself several hours after the application of the vitamin A to the face. Therefore, it is desirable that retinol is not part of the day cream, otherwise the effect of UV on the skin will lead to premature aging. Also, it is not recommended to use such products to girls in the position and nursing mothers.
- Coenzyme Q10
The presence of this component in cosmetics,designed to combat age-related changes - is mandatory, not just desirable. It works only on the upper layers of the skin, so it will not be able to smooth out deep wrinkles exactly, but to get rid of the newly appeared ones or to prevent the emergence of new ones - easily.
- Vitamin E
Tocopherol, along with Q10, does not give moleculescollagen break down, so that the skin remains smooth and even for much longer. In addition, it will protect your face from the harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation. But even small children know what harm the sun rays do. Remember, components that do not give UV exposure to the skin should be in any similar cosmetic products.
- Vitamin C
Lack of this vitamin can lead to rapidwithering of the skin, since it is one of the basic substances necessary for the production of collagen. Its presence in the cream is necessary, especially if there is also vitamin E (this antioxidant strengthens its work). Plus, such products are recommended to women who have problems with acne.
- Alphahydrogen acids
ANA, if you use them not too often and withmind, are quite useful, since they help to purify themselves from the keratinized particles. But those who will use the drugs with, say, lactic acid every day, instead of healthy and smooth skin will get a completely opposite result. Remember what manufacturers of such products usually do not say - alpha hydro-acids destroy the natural protective barrier, which is the cause of the appearance of early wrinkles. European countries have already managed to express their protest against such cosmetics, since its uncontrolled use (and ANA is added to many creams), can lead to burns.
- Hyaluronic acid
The cream, which contains this component,will cost two or three times more than usual, but many scientists still argue about its effectiveness. But the weighty argument that hyaluronic acid molecules are as great as the molecules of collagen makes us wonder whether it is worth buying such a remedy. 
Caution, it's dangerous!
For several years now, many famous scientistssay publicly: anti-wrinkle cream can be addictive! Is this really so, or is it another black PR, until now no one can say for sure. Their main argument is that if it does this permanently, the positive effect will be visible after four to five weeks, but once the girls stop using it, everything will return to normal. However, on the other hand, how can the skin remain without a cream as smooth, even and fresh if it ceases to receive the vitamins and ingredients that fed it before. The only thing that can worry you, is that the consequences of using some components have not yet been fully studied. Therefore, how you will feel yourself and at what age look like in thirty or forty years, remains a mystery even for scientists, not to mention technologists. But, as they say, wolves are afraid, not to go to the forest.
How to choose the right cream
Of course, to ensure that you are on the first tryfind a suitable option for yourself, no one (even experienced sales consultants) can not, but to avoid playing roulette and not risk your health, you should adhere to several basic rules.
- Consider skin features
Dry, oily, combination skin - this onethe type needs certain elements and substances, so you can not take a cream without first making sure that they suit you. To find out which category you belong to, it's enough to visit a professional cosmetologist once or hold a small test with a napkin. If after you rub her face, she will have a divorce, then you have oily skin. Providing correct daily care, you will also get rid of some defects (acne, acne, etc.), but if the product is intended for dry, and you have problematic oily skin, you will only aggravate the situation.
- SPF not less than 15
Remember, the sun is the biggest enemy of the skin,therefore, such cosmetics should reduce its effect. The presence of substances that protect against ultraviolet radiation should in no way affect the cost of production, therefore, only the cream in which the SPF index exceeds 15 - for winter use, 30 - for summer is effective. Note that it does not make sense to buy a cream against wrinkles, if there is not, for example, zinc oxide, avobenzone, titanium dioxide, etc.
- Moisturizing - the pledge of young skin
With age, a person's skin loses its former elasticityand smoothness, and the main reason for this is a lack of moisture, so components must be present in the anti-wrinkle agent to prevent its loss. It is best if the entire series of day and night creams will be from the same manufacturer, since in this case all such nuances are taken into account.
- Do not buy cream in dubious places
Even the best and most expensive cream will not beEffective if it is stored incorrectly. It is unlikely that in the transitions, markets and houses there is a specially equipped room, where huge boxes with this product lie. Moisture and sunlight - this is not the worst thing that can be. Unsanitary conditions - this is what can in the future lead to serious skin diseases in those who will use the goods purchased in such places. Ideal option - a store or a pharmacy. In addition, they can give you a first-class consultation, will prompt you what exactly is right for you, will provide certificates and documents confirming the quality, and also will show the annotation. If necessary, in a legal trading institution you will be able to exchange goods, if you provide a check.
- Study the composition
Manufacturers are required to specify all ingredientsfrom the greater to the less: what is at the very beginning of the list will be the main one, and what at the end is the least useful. Thus, if in advertising it was said that, for example, the extract of a cucumber will make your skin smooth, and this component is on the list of the twentieth, then you are simply trying to cheat, as efficiency from it will be very small. 
We use the cream correctly
Having bought a cream against wrinkles, do not expect that onThe second-third day your face will become completely smooth. Before there is a positive effect, a minimum of a month must pass. But, unfortunately, your face will not be the same as a young girl who advertises this remedy. If you use this tool from time to time, then you just throw money away. Begin to apply the cream should not when you can see deep wrinkles, but much earlier. Of course, until the skin is young (up to twenty-five), such a serious product should not be used, it is better to stop on conventional moisturizers with UV protection. After thirty, the wrinkle cream already belongs to the category of must-have of every girl, regardless of whether she has age or mimic marks, or not. Before each application of cream, be sure to wash your hands and face. It's not only about personal hygiene, but also the fact that the less microbes get into such a remedy, the better. That is why many manufacturers produce products in tubes with a thin hole, and not in the usual and usual packaging. Thanks to this, this cosmetics is much longer stored. The anti-wrinkle cream should never be applied to the area around the eyes, as for such a delicate and sensitive skin you should use specially designed products. Nutritious cream should not be lubricated places where the face of the hairs, otherwise they will grow much faster. Remember that you can not experiment with these cosmetic products. Always follow the instructions, and if it says that the night cream can be applied, for example, only an hour and a half before bedtime, do not do it later or earlier. If during this time it is not completely absorbed, remove the residue with a dry paper towel or cotton swab. Also do not use the cream during the day, since it should not contact the sun's rays. Apply any cosmetic product carefully! Rubbing the cream into your skin, patting your cheeks and forehead with your fingertips, you only worsen the situation, because because of micro-traumas, new wrinkles will appear faster. Movements should be light, circular and barely perceptible. For greater efficiency, make masks or rub the skin with tonics, lotions, so that the active ingredients are easier to get inside. If you can not clean your face, wipe it with a damp cloth to remove dust and dirt. And the last, but not unimportant! Never use more than you need. A thick layer of cream will be absorbed for a very long time, and if you leave it for the night, then in the morning you will find its dry remnants. The benefits of this will not be any, but the harm, from infection, ending with premature wrinkles, abound. Usually, a small drop, the size of a pea, is enough for one time. We advise you to read:
