Do (how?) facial creams like anti wrinkle or collagen actually work?

491 views

I have read about face creams etc but it’s very difficult to identify the truth from the marketing. From what I can tell, the whole industry is nonsense and preys mostly on insecure women. It seems like there is no way to prove it since if the results are less than expected, the reply would be “imagine how much worse it could have been.” Maybe too many questions but is there any correlation between cost and effectiveness?

There are definitely some products that are proven to have benefits. Take retinol for example. It is proven to increase skin cell production and to produce collagen, which will make your skin “plumper” and reduce fine lines and wrinkles. However it’s not a miracle cure and requires repeated use to generate noticeable results.

In general, it’s worth looking at the active ingredients and then googling if those ingredients do anything, and look only at answers from reliable sources.
