Cream for deep wrinkles on the forehead reviews

Facial massage is a popular salon procedure that provides excellent care and tightened skin. Among all types of massage, there is also a rather specific one - cotton facial massage. Let's figure out what kind of animal this is.

Cotton facial massage is not about rubbing with a cotton thread, but about the correct technology of spanking your beautiful face. The procedure is carried out by a professional, according to massage lines. And no, the fact that your ex periodically slapped you in the face cannot be called a cotton massage.

Cotton facial massage or slapping face is a popular procedure in Asia that has only now gained popularity all over the world. It all started (by an interesting coincidence) with a video on Instagram of a Korean blogger and journalist, Christina Chang.

How to choose an anti-wrinkle cream

Any caring cosmetic product should be selected based on an examination of the condition of your skin by a specialist - a dermatologist or cosmetologist. When age-related changes become noticeable, it is not the time to select a face care cream by trial and error - this can be easily avoided if you listen to the recommendations of a professional.

The formation of wrinkles is determined by the type of skin: the drier it is, the less dense and elastic it is, it fades earlier, and to maintain a fresh appearance you need to use a moisturizing and nourishing cream. If the face is dotted with a network of fine wrinkles, the care product should be protected from ultraviolet radiation and wind. If your face is “sagging” and there are deep wrinkles, you will need a cream-lifting treatment to maintain the tone of weakening muscles.

All the world's leading companies have lines of cosmetic products for facial care. The result, based on the experience of women, is faster and more noticeable when all skin care products are from the same series. Actually, anti-aging cream has only a preventive effect and helps improve your appearance, make your skin fresher, and your complexion smoother. Wrinkles will remain, but they will be less visible.

The composition of the anti-aging cream usually includes:

retinoids that stimulate collagen production;
hydrolyzed collagen to maintain skin elasticity;
organic acids, fruit and lactic, which trigger skin renewal processes;
muscle relaxants (argireline, creamide 3, boswellia extract);
Coenzyme Q10;
vitamins C and E;
sun filter.

But if the presence of these components in the anti-wrinkle product is justified, there are substances whose addition to the cream affects its cost more than the result:

the presence of hyaluronate (hyaluronic acid) in the composition will not give a visible effect, since the molecules of this substance do not penetrate beyond the surface layer of the skin and the effect ends after the first wash;
Botox - the use of a toxin is effective only with injections, when the facial muscles are paralyzed and the folds in the skin are temporarily straightened;
an extract from the placenta rejuvenates aging skin, but as soon as you stop using the product, the effect goes away;
Royal jelly is only beneficial when taken orally. Proteins, vitamins, and microelements are not absorbed when applied externally.

The cream may contain an extract of plant stem cells, make sure that their content is at least 5%. The spectrum of effects of this substance is different: reducing the depth of folds, smoothing out the network of wrinkles, increasing skin elasticity - it all depends on which plant the cells are isolated from. Phytoestrogens and plant components are indeed capable of penetrating deeply into the skin and rejuvenating it, but the cream must contain at least 30% of them, and it is used by women over the age of 40.

It is better to choose another product with Botox - with peptides, micromolecules of proteins that relax facial wrinkles and cause an overall rejuvenating effect. The recommended proportion of the substance in the cream is at least 7%. Such funds are used after 50 years.

One of the important components in anti-aging cream is collagen, which maintains skin elasticity. The benefits of all anti-aging products are based on the principle of deep penetration into the dermis and effects at the cellular level.

What causes wrinkles? 5 main reasons

No. 1. Genetics

Just like external resemblance to parents, characteristics and skin type are also passed on to children. Therefore, if you have freckles or, conversely, an even complexion, this is a merit of the past generation. You can improve the characteristics of your skin type with proper care, but it is unlikely that you will be able to radically change it.

No. 2. Emotions

As we know, emotions can be both positive and negative. And all of them are reflected on the skin of the face. Those who like to laugh often have crow's feet wrinkles in the corners of their eyes, while a person who is gloomy, anxious or angry usually has wrinkles on the forehead and nasolabial folds.

No. 3. External factors

Our face is open all year round, being exposed to either the sun's rays, the wind, or the snow. These fluctuations in temperature, humidity and UV exposure are also factors that cause the skin to age and wrinkle. And each season requires special facial skin care.

No. 4. Diets

Yes, yes, it is a strict diet that can cause wrinkles. Firstly, the body experiences stress from all kinds of mono-diets, because it does not receive enough nutrients. The skin loses elasticity due to the lack of the right fats in the diet, thins and becomes drier and flabby. And secondly, during a strict diet, the body experiences stress as a whole, which immediately affects its appearance.

No. 5. Improper care

How often are we lazy to make skin masks, wash off makeup and apply night cream? What about morning skin care routines, do we skip them? If so, your skin becomes less elastic with each skip. Improper care includes improper application of care products, expired cosmetics, or cosmetics that do not suit your skin type. Apply face cream along the main massage lines, without stretching the skin, using light pats.

Features of choosing a product depending on age

Thorough facial care is needed after 20 years, despite the fact that the body’s resources are still sufficient to maintain a healthy and thriving appearance. Anti-wrinkle products are recommended for use from the age of 25 if the skin looks tired.

After 30 years, the activity of the sebaceous glands decreases, the ability to regenerate elastin fibers decreases, and microcirculation deteriorates. The first hormonal changes begin. Estrogen production decreases and the skin becomes drier. Vitaminized products, hydrating creams, and moisturizing milk are useful. Hormone replacement therapy can help only slightly delay the inevitable process.

After 40 years, the protein content in a woman’s muscle tissue decreases, the work of the sebaceous glands slows down and gradually stops. The skin becomes dehydrated and the content of mucopolysaccharides decreases. Creams and serums for women over 45 contain more nutrients than a regular moisturizer.

At the age of 50, active skin aging is observed. Blood circulation decreases, the dermis becomes thinner and dry, wrinkles deepen, and pigment spots may appear.

The skin fades faster due to unfavorable external factors:

excessive exposure to sunlight (UV radiation);
bad habits, especially smoking;
lack of sleep and poor nutrition.

What to do when the first wrinkles appear?

The first wrinkles may appear under the eyes or on the forehead, among other things, and they occur not only as a result of aging, but also as a result of external factors such as poor diet, smoking, stress or excessive exposure to sunlight. There are many creams on the market that help eliminate or reduce wrinkles.

The first step to beauty is a thorough revision of your makeup bag. When the first wrinkles begin to appear, you need to change your daily care cosmetics and choose the right cream. A cream for the first wrinkles should contain a large number of ingredients that will eliminate or reduce them.

Unfortunately, there is still a misconception that anti-wrinkle cream is only for older women, which is why young women turn to a cosmetologist late. As a result, the effects of using cosmetics or procedures that eliminate the symptoms of skin aging are often unsatisfactory.

According to scientists, it is best to start using anti-aging cosmetics before the age of 30. It is at this age that the skin begins to wrinkle, and thus wrinkles appear on the forehead, around the mouth or around the eyes. From now on there is nothing more to wait for, and you need to start skin care that slows down the aging process.

Anti-aging cosmetics up to 30 years

Mode of application

Anti-wrinkle creams, including those on the forehead, must be used constantly, systematically and exactly according to the instructions. For the best effect, it is recommended to use them in combination with other cosmetic procedures and facial gymnastics.

Any anti-aging product should be used step by step:

Be sure to cleanse your skin: wash with foam or gel, moisturize your skin with tonic.
Apply the cream to your face with your fingertips and light patting movements.
Distribute the product along the massage lines from the center to the sides from bottom to top.

A special cream is produced for the area around the eyes, so avoid this area when applying the product.

Before use, check the composition of the cosmetic product for intolerance to its individual components - to prevent unwanted allergic reactions. Irritation can be caused not only by special sensitivity to the drug, but also by other reasons:

the cream was applied incorrectly, the recommendations were not followed;
skin is too dry;
ultraviolet action;
the cream is expired or stored in improper conditions.

Face massage

This method can not only apply cosmetics. Patting itself is a good facial massage. This massage lasts from 1 to 5 minutes and consists of the same patting movements, only more intense.

You should start with light pats so as not to damage the blood vessels. Over time, it is advisable to make them stronger (but not to the point of slapping yourself!) so that your face turns red. Recently, this unusual massage has become very popular in Thai beauty salons, where specially trained masseuses hit their clients’ faces very sensitively and claim that in this way they narrow pores and get rid of wrinkles. In America, such a massage costs up to $400 per session. So why not try it at home for free?

The beauty secret of Japanese women is slapping their faces

Don't expect immediate results! Wrinkles will not smooth out immediately after the first “slaps”. However, after just a month of daily patting, you will notice that the skin has become more velvety and tightened, and wrinkles have disappeared or become less noticeable.

When I saw a program on TV about rejuvenation with the help of patting, I naturally thought - another “scam”. And as soon as we, women, are not bullied. And we all continue to experiment on ourselves in the hope of maintaining youth. Naturally, I started trying similar rejuvenation on myself. I really didn’t have much hope for the result. A month later, I critically examined the condition of my skin in the mirror - and - lo and behold! – the skin became noticeably tighter, looked radiant, elastic and velvety. I was shocked. After that, in addition to the patting procedure, I began to use a contrast shower, directing streams of water directly to my face. This had an even better effect. Therefore, I hasten to share with you my secret of youth and freshness.

How to make anti-aging cream at home

Homemade cosmetics are much cheaper than ready-made creams and are made from natural raw materials. They are used more for prevention: plant components have a beneficial effect on the condition of the skin, nourish and moisturize it. But you shouldn’t expect quick and noticeable results from using homemade creams. From popular recipes of folk cosmetology:

dried linden and chamomile flowers are brewed with 0.5 tbsp. hot water and leave for 15–20 minutes. Strain and add 1 tbsp. l. olive oil, grind until smooth. Apply to the face and leave overnight;
chamomile (2 tablespoons is enough) is poured with a quarter cup of boiling water, left for an hour in a warm place, then the liquid is drained. Add glycerin, grape seed oil, honey in equal proportions, stir until smooth;
take linseed oil, sprouted wheat and grape seed oil in equal proportions, 1 teaspoon is enough, add lavender oil - a quarter of a teaspoon, heated lanolin. Stir, cool;
Finely grate the carrots and simmer over low heat with the addition of vegetable oil. Strain, add 20 g of heated natural wax, 0.5 tbsp. l. honey and a little cedar oil. Stir until smooth.

You should store your own prepared cream in a cool place for no longer than 5 days.

How to use cream for the first wrinkles under the eyes and on the forehead?

Anti-wrinkle cream should be applied to thoroughly cleansed and toned skin. First, you should use eye cream - apply it to several points of the lower eyelid, lightly patting it with your fingertips. The cream should also be applied to the eyelids and the area between the eyebrows.

Then the cream is applied to the neck and chin, while rubbing it in with upward movements only.

At the very end, the cream is applied to the rest of the face. On the cheeks it should extend to the ears, and on the forehead through points pointing upward.

Pharmacy remedies for wrinkles in the forehead area

To combat wrinkles, you can use pharmaceutical products or purchase regular ointments:

Relief - when applied twice a day, restores cell regeneration and promotes healthy skin;
Radevit - contains vitamins A, E, D2 in “shock” doses. With systematic use (apply morning and evening), wrinkles will become noticeably smaller;
Solcoseryl - stimulates collagen production, restores blood circulation. Indications for use: apply at night;
zinc ointment - although it dries the skin, it reliably protects it from exposure to ultraviolet rays. It is recommended to use together with moisturizer, apply before going outside;
retinoic ointment - improves skin condition due to its stimulating effect. Apply at night;
hydrocortisone ointment - used to moisturize the skin, recommended to be used twice a day.

Be sure to read the contraindications for the drug.

Anti-wrinkle creams for men

Wrinkles on the forehead appear in men even earlier than in women, but age-related changes are less noticeable due to high testosterone levels. Their skin is 30% thicker and denser than women's, the dermis contains 20% more collagen, and the epidermis is more resistant to external influences.

Anti-aging creams are often produced in lines with pre- and post-shave gels; products can be found in many cosmetic brands. The product should contain:

vitamins A, C and E;
ingredients with moisturizing properties;
antiseptic components;
hyaluronic acid.

It is recommended to use anti-aging creams after 25 years; with timely prevention, the skin will be fresh and wrinkle-free longer.

Retinoic ointment at night (retinol is practically the only thing that can fight wrinkles from external products) and sunscreen during the day (90% of wrinkles are due to the sun). Whatever you want, there are only a few SZ filters - titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, avobenzone and tinosorb, SPF not lower than 15.

In general, of course, it is better when the creams are given to each person individually. I previously had a cosmetologist who applied the cream herself. It was great, the cream was stored for no more than 30 days. And after she leaves, you have to be content with store-bought ones, fortunately, at least with the current cosmetologist you have the opportunity to try first.

Few creams will help with facial expressions, really only moisturizing + lifting. I make my own creams, I won’t recommend any industrial ones, they contain only a few% of active ingredients, and everything else is ballast and harmful substances. Oils in their pure form can dry out the skin, and not all of them can be used during the day. You can also take a massage course from a good cosmetologist.

Creams and serums do not remove wrinkles, only light and superficial smoothing; if you take hyaluronic acid, it only works with injections, somehow using ultrasound and phonophoresis. I inject a biorevitalization cocktail into the nasolabial and cheekbone areas under the eyes twice a year, I don’t touch the forehead yet, the result is immediately visible by the complete filling of deep wrinkles, not only superficial facial wrinkles, the result lasts even with a sharp weight loss for up to 3-5 months, very I like the effect, I’m already quite addicted to the injections, and for care I take the Korean Mizon gel with snail, it moisturizes well.

Creams for forehead wrinkles can and even should be purchased after 25 years, when the first signs of skin aging appear. You need to choose a product according to your problems and skin type. Use in combination with other procedures and facial gymnastics.

Hello. How do you deal with forehead wrinkles? This is a complete nightmare for me. Due to poor eyesight (I wear glasses now), I had to constantly wince and squint. After this, terrible folds formed on the forehead and between the nose. I take care of my face and use anti-wrinkle creams. But nothing helps at all. These folds and depressions are just killing me.
