The Search is on for the Best Wrinkle Cream
Thanks to the ever developing world of science, there are more and more reasons to be vain in a good way and sometimes, for a very good amount of money. You can remove the unwanted lines with only few injections. You can make your skin whiter with only a short procedure. You can even change the way you look, your features, in a matter of hours.
But one thing that you need to be sure about, are you willing to go that far? If not, here are your other options.
1. Moisturizer
This is a must for everybody whether you are a boy or a girl. This helps your skin feeling smooth and looking fresh all the time. Although this product alone cannot cure wrinkles, this can help to diminish such problems with the aid of other beauty products.
What does a moisturizer do? This will prevent your skin from dryness. As a result, you won’t have to deal with bruising nor tearing caused by such situation. To achieve great results, moisturizers must be applied on your skin after you have washed or have taken a bath in which your skin is still damp. Such product will retain the moisture on your skin.
There are many products that can act for this purpose. For example, petroleum jelly will help retain the water on your skin and prevent it from evaporating. Glycerin will pull the water up into your skin’s surface. This will prove especially effective for people with oily skin. Monolaurin, on the other hand, will restore your skin’s natural elements in retaining moisture.
Look at the ingredients of your moisturizers. Ask the salesperson what will suit your skin the best way possible. There are also other good ingredients that you may want to check out such as sun protectors, keratin, AHA and collagen. You will find a lot of variations of moisturizers available commercially.
Choose the brand and the products that will suit your budget and skin perfectly. Sometimes it is not really about the price. Other more affordable choices will suit your skin as good as the more expensive ones. It is all in the matter of making the right decision, especially because this will affect how you look and how you will look in the long run.
2. Under Eye Cream
If this is the area that you are most concerned about, there are also a lot of commercially available products that can help you solve your dilemma. The skin under your eyes may appear sensitive. This is because it is thinner than the rest of your facial skin. And such part doesn’t produce sufficient protective oils to make the part soft as well as supple. This product should not be rubbed but must be applied using a light tapping motion to help eliminate wrinkles and other problems like dark circles or even puffiness.
As you start your search what’s the best wrinkle cream, you will be presented with many choices. You can do this the trial and error way. Or you can go directly to a dermatologist who can look at your skin deeply and can recommend to you what’s best for your skin type.

How To Minimize Wrinkles Around The Eyes With Face Yoga
Yoga works wonders for the muscles of your body, so why not your facial muscles, too? That's the theory behind Face Yoga. Yoga teacher Annelise Hagen, author of The Yoga Face, demonstrates techniques to minimize wrinkles and sagging muscles around the eyes.
Face yoga is designed to help reduce and even prevent wrinkles on your face. These exercises are designed to loosen wrinkles around your eyes.
How does face yoga work? * Exercising the muscles in your face will help tone them (just like exercising the muscles in your body) and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. It plumps the muscles under the skin, and lifts the skin along with it. * Performing these exercises with face yoga can help you control the way your face shapes itself.
Will facial exercises/repetitive motion actually increase wrinkles? * No, the facial muscles are involuntary muscles, so doing a program of trained repetitions can actually reduce the wrinkles. * Facial expressions that you constantly make due to stress and other factors are more likely to cause wrinkles.
Crow's feet * To help combat crow's feet, isolate your lower eyelids and wink with only your lower eyelid. * To create resistance and really build the muscle, place your index finger in the area of the crow's feet while winking the lower eyelid. * Do about 20 repetitions on each eye.
Upper eyelid * To tone the upper eyelid area, close your eyes and hold down your upper eyelid (not with your fingers—just try to 'glue down' your eyelid firmly) to the lower eyelid for 5-10 seconds. * Do several repetitions to build the muscle.
Keeping a face yoga routine * Since you will be training new muscles on your face it is best to start with your problem area and focus on that. * Perform these face yoga exercises a minimum of two times per week in the mornings.

The Satchmo * Inhale, hold your breath, and alternately puff your breath back and forth from cheek to cheek, puffing out each cheek as you do so. * Repeat until you run out of breath, and then exhale through your mouth.
The Marionette * Wrinkle your nose up and down, the way that a bunny would. * Place your index fingers in the crease on either side of your nose.

How To Reduce Forehead Wrinkles With Face Yoga
To botox or not to botox, that is the question. The answer? No botox, if face yoga techniques demonstrated by author and yoga teacher Annelise Hagen can work for you.
If Botox is not for you, then face yoga might be a good alternative to help reduce wrinkles. Face yoga a system of stretching and working face muscles to create a more youthful appearance: * Using the same basic principles of movement and exercise, when a muscle is contracted and released it will get stronger. * It has been shown that when a muscle is repetitively worked that the production of collagen is prolonged. * Collagen and elastin are those connective fibers that help the skin stay resilient. * Facial movement does not cause wrinkles but rather scowling, puckering and unconscious habits.
The Lion Face * The lion face is derived from Yoga and helps tone all the muscles of the face and releases stress. * To practice the lion face simply take a deep breath in and scowl and pucker up everything on your face and then exhale and release, sticking out your tongue like a lion yawning.
Forehead * The forehead muscle is a rather large muscle called the Frontalis. * A simple exercise of raising and lowering your eyebrows can be used to help reduce wrinkles in your forehead. * To do this exercise just place your fingertips on the outer edges of your forehead and apply pressure while raising and lowering your eyebrows.
Eyebrow Crease * To help reduce the wrinkling between the eyebrows you simply need to make the scowl so the wrinkle is present, then place your index fingers in the middle of each eyebrow and pull out, away from the face. Hold it for about 5 seconds. * All of these exercises are aimed at increasing circulation. * With continuous practice you can see results in 3-4 weeks.

Various Exercises to Remove Wrinkles
But before we go there, we have to mention other ways to remove wrinkles.
The first and perhaps most obvious is to avoid stressful situations and learning to stay calm. But if you have a very toxic job, that is very unless and the only thing to do will be to quit and shift to a new career.
Many of us are not willing to do that which is why we have to resort to other means. You can also buy several makeup products to hide away those under eye wrinkles and eating right.
But perhaps the best which will not cost you anything are various exercises which you can do at any time. Since people will often notice wrinkles on the face, let’s focus on what exercises can be done to remove it.
To firm up your forehead, you place your index finger just above your eyes and pull it down while trying to raise your eyebrows.
For your eyes and crows feet, raise your lower eyelids without moving your upper ones. This takes some practice so don’t feel bad if you don’t get it right the first time.
You can also fix your cheeks by pushing the lips out and making a round shape then stretching forward. You then smile as wide as you can for a second and then let it return to its original round shape.
As for the lips, suck your fingers as had as possible then slowly remove it. If you are a smoker, hide your teeth with your lips then make a small “O” shape while keeping the lips as tense and as wide as possible.
The exercises for the forehead, eyes and crows feet, cheeks and lips should be repeated at least 10 times.
The neck and chin has a number of exercises. You can start by looking straight ahead and placing the index finger and thumb on your neck and gently puling the skin down as you lift the head.
At the same time, you should keep your mouth closed and your teeth together so you can press the tip of your tongue against the bottom of your lower teeth gradually increasing the pressure until you count to 10, then hold for 6 and then slowly releasing it. You may use two fingers at the hollow of your neck as resistance when you are gently pressing in.
You can also lower your lip as far as possible, placing your fingers on your collar bone, pointing the chin as high as possible and then pulling the corners of your mouth down.
Another exercise involves placing your thumb behind the bone just under your chin, pressing the tongue against your lower gums and then pretending to touch your tongue to the thumb.
Working on the chin can be done by tightening the muscle there as firm as possible then pushing your lower lip up and as though you are pouting so it turns white and dimpled.
Now that you know the various exercises to remove wrinkles, the only thing to do now is include this in your daily routine. This should be done twice a day once in the morning and the other in the evening.
