Nowadays anti aging skin care products can be found just about everywhere including drug and department stores, online retailers, and even in supermarkets. To select the best product for your skin, examine the ingredients and product claims closely when choosing an anti-wrinkle cream.
- Look at active ingredients. Many anti aging skin care products list peptides as an active ingredient. While peptides can be effective, many products do not use enough of the ingredient for visible improvement. Some active ingredients that may prevent or improve the appearance of facial wrinkles include retinol, coenzyme Q10, hydroxy acids, niacinamide, grape seed extract, and various tea extracts. It is best to consult with your dermatologist to see which ingredients would be most effective for your particular skin.
Avoid products that make extravagant claims. Products that claim to make you look 20 years younger overnight or claim to produce instant results are usually ineffective. Check out clinical results, actual testimonials, and recommendations from friends. Beware of advertisements that disguise themselves as clinical studies or consumer product testing companies. They will usually feature their product as the number one ineffectiveness. Read the fine print and disclaimers closely to avoid misleading claims.

- Choose products that contain broad-spectrum sunscreens and moisturizers. Sun exposure can damage skin and create deeper wrinkles over time. Good anti-aging skin care products should protect as well as correct problems. Many ingredients that can reduce fine lines and wrinkles also dry out the skin. Combine a daily moisturizer along with any anti-wrinkle regimen.
