Default Do wrinkle / eye creams for men actually do anything ?

Been using L'Oreal "wrinkle de-crease" and their eye cream that is for reducing blackness under the eyes for quite a while now & cannot see sod all difference. I know its not going to remove wrinkles but it does claim to reduce them, which I can't see happening.

I am lucky in that I get the stuff really cheap through a friend so havn't spent loads of £££ on this stuff.
Anyone else use similar creams and do they work ? Big con?

There was an interesting programme on last week - Horizon - where a professor set out to investigate whether these creams can live up to the hype. In short the only one that she found came anywhere close to reducing the signs of wrinkles was Boots Protect & Perfect Serum. Needless to say you can't buy it anywhere now

I've got some of that! Blimey, I bought it off Ebay a couple of months ago... Did nothing for me except make my skin greasy!! Perhaps I ought to use it around my eyes....

Anyone wanna buy a slightly used bottle?

Failing that, surgery.

Just iron your face the wrinkles will soon disappear, and if they don't at least you will have something else to worry about and take your mind off the wrinkles

the only way to see if your cream really works is to stop using it and see what happens

i use anti wrinkle cream, i would rather forget to go out without my clothes on than not wear my cream
