Okay,
I hate to be the bearer of bad news. But very very very few OTC products help with wrinkles at all. The active ingredient in the vast majority of them is sunscreen.
The only thing that has been clinically proven in trial after trial to eliminate wrinkles is active retinoic acid. Sold under the brand names Retin-A and Renova.
They are available by prescription only.
Now, Avon (yes Avon) sells a variety of products that I just love, including a wonderful little product for the eyes with hyaluronic acid (HA) in it. HA is a GREAT moisturizer. They also have a line eliminator that had retinoic acid in it, but not enough to require a prescription, so I doubt it's enough to have any effect.
