Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, a fountain of youth overflowed abundantly — bubbling out refreshing sips of anti-aging magic. One gulp or quick splash filled in lines and wrinkles, lifted saggy bits, de-puffed eyes, evened out skin tones and textures and reversed sun damage.
Then all of the sudden, like some cruel joke, reality set in and no such magical fountain existed. This forced women everywhere to search for the next best thing.
Cut to today, when there is a surplus of anti-aging skin care products like creams, serums, gels and powders that all claim to be this fountain of youth. Some work their anti-aging magic through ingredients that have a ton of scientific research and analysis on how skin ages to back them up and some are pure hype — smoke and mirrors with a price tag exceeding $300.
But luckily, women like you have tried loads of these anti-aging skin care products and have separated the winners from the losers. Our readers named these anti-aging products the best of the best when it comes to turning back the clock.
