Jamie Kopf Hirsh, Consumer Reports said: "At an outside lab we conducted blind tests. More than 100 people applied two different creams, one on each side of their face, morning and night, for six weeks."
Consumer Reports' trained sensory panelists evaluated more than 600 "before" and "after" photographs. What did they see?
Jamie Kopf Hirsh, Consumer Reports said: "results varied from person to person, but none of the creams were able to fully eliminate wrinkles around the eyes."
Still, some creams did help to reduce the appearance of wrinkles slightly more than others, but not necessarily the most expensive ones. In fact, this 59-dollar cream from Lancôme turned out to be among the least effective in the tests. Of the four better-performing creams, the lowest priced is one from Olay, at 20 dollars. It's the total effects 7-in-1 anti-aging booster eye transforming cream.
And remember, your best remedy for wrinkles is taking measures to prevent them in the first place. When out in the sun, always wear sunscreen, shield your face with a hat, and wear sunglasses.
Quitting cigarette smoking is another way to prevent wrinkles, and, of course, a lot of other health problems.
Consumer Reports said since results with eye creams do vary from person to person, another one to try is "Doctor Brandt Lineless" for sixty dollars.
