my mom, after beating some eggs, used to get the egg shells and spooned out the rest of the egg whites straight to her face while she was in the kitchen.. now that’s what you call an instant kitchen facial.. lol.. truly, it has been an age-old beauty treatment..
Please help?
yes
also use vitamin E and B-COMPLEX (very very good for skin and hair)
that really works?is it better to buy an eye cream-4 that area or is it the same as using face cream?
it is safe. Stretch mark cream temporarily tightens the skin. That is all. Eye cream is better around the eye because it won’t hurt your eyes if it accidentally gets in there. Believe it or not, simple over the counter Preparation H is the best thing on the market. Professional models use it before shows but be careful, don’t get it in the eyes. Yep I said it, preparation H is not only an ass cream. (SIDE NOTE: PrepH used for hemorrhoids because it reduces swelling by tightening the skin)
KILT Trivia Questions
If you are looking for home remedy to reduce wrinkles, try this.
Smear honey on your face and leave it for as long as possible (but 5-10mins a day will do). then rinse off with tepid water mixed with a teaspoon of cider vinegar – this has a neutral pH and will act as a toner.
And if you have some bucks, Lifecell anti wrinkle cream would be a good choice. You can have more information here.

Sephora says I should spend $280 on one product! Advice on products or what ingredients to look for in products to help wrinkles around eyes, mouth, on cheeks, and smile lines next to mouth. Am 43 and have sort of dry skin.
No no no no no! you don’t need to spend a fortune on skin care products, not when so many drug store products work better than expensive ones! There are a limited number of ingredients and expensive ones often have the same as the cheaper ones. In some instances, the cheaper products have more! First and foremost you should be wearing a sunscreen every day. Nothing ages and damages the skin faster than sun exposure. At 40+ your basic daily moisturizer should have a sunscreen in it. At our age we need more protection because hormones are making the skin slightly thinner than when we were 20. Some drug store brands such as Nuetrogena, Almay, Alpha-Hydrox and especially Olay are some of the best lines out there. All have skin care products that have integral sunscreens, plenty of good for skin ingredients and the price is hundreds lower than Sephora and department store brands. Olay’s regenerist and total effects are two of the finest lines anywhere and usually beat out products costing hundreds of dollars more in consumer and scientific testing.

Are there any home remedies for facial wrinkles? I’ve already tried the egg whites..It looked awful when I applied make-up.
Preventing wrinkles is preferable to trying to eliminate or diminish them. Unfortunately, how your skin wrinkles is pretty much determined by heredity, but there are things you can do to slow skin aging. Always make sure you are drinking enough water so your skin is plumped from the inside. Get enough sleep. Protect your skin from the sun and wind. Don’t rub your skin – pat it gently. Keep your skin clean, but don’t over do it. If you can, sleep on your back. And finally, when the wrinkles do come, accept what you can’t change, after all, they show you’ve survived long enough to get them!
When I wake up I always have pillow marks/wrinkles in my face from sleeping on my cotton pillow case. Is there a pillow case on the market that is made of a special kind of material to prevent this?
I’ve seen a pure silk one advertised in beauty mags. Meant to be good for skin & keeping hair neater too. Maybe you could do a search for one.
I know a woman in her 60’s who swears she’s never had wrinkles or plastic surgery and she said she uses preparation H to keep her skin tight. Can this be true?
It’s more along the line of an urban legend, though some people believe that Preparation H is useful for treating under eye puffiness since it works by temporarily restricting the blood vessels in the area onto which it is applied. There are many different variations of Preparation H; however, they all basically perform the same function – they just use different ingredients to reduce the irritation. Preparation H with hydrocortisone contains a 1% concentration of the stuff, quite low considering that you can get hydrocortisone creams with concentrations up to 2.5% over-the-counter. But keep it out of your eyes – they can be seriously damage from some of the ingredients found in PH.
The original treatment (which some people actually believe works for facial issues) is only available in Canada I believe.
As for fine lines, I believe it would simply moisturize no better than an ointment like vitamin E. And the results wouldn’t be immediate (plus, you wouldn’t want to use something that constricts blood vessels on your face for too long).
My recommendation (I’m obsessed with the face, and products to help keep it fresh and younger), stay away from it – it’s along the lines of toothpaste for pimples… an old urban myth. There’s plenty of things/moisturizer’s out there that would have far more beneficial qualities for only 10-15 dollars more.
PH can’t be good for you long term, and whatever it does (like constrict blood from the face), would reverse as soon as it is stopped (which you would have to do within weeks of use).
