Athena Seven Minute Miracle -- A review

Rather expensive, the Athena Seven Minute Miracle anti-wrinkle cream miracle clocks in at almost a hundred dollars. I sincerely felt that if this stuff costs so much it had to do what it said.

Taking a cue from the Deception and Hydroderm debacles, I made it a point to do a bit of internet research prior to purchasing the anti-wrinkle face cream. I discovered that Athena was a company in good standing, not only with the BBB but with customers as well. I felt less unsure about plopping my money down.

I tried what many said was the best anti wrinkle cream on the market and what can I say—-it worked.

When I put the Athena Seven Minute Miracle on my under eyes wrinkles and laugh lines it did tighten them and in exactly seven minutes.

There was, however, a problem — the Athena wrinkle cream left a white residue that was hard to manipulate. Now, the accompanying DVD says that if you apply Athena correctly that won't happen.

However, I noted that if I tried to put too little of Athena Seven Minute Miracle on, it simply didn't work as well.

They also claim you can wear it under or over make up, but makeup tends to clump in the area where Athena is applied. If one is going to use Athena, they have to so it sparingly and with no makeup—-something a lot of women will be at loath to do.

So while Athena Seven Minute Miracle did do what it said, it is far too messy and hard to apply. Besides, I want something effortless that provides a long-term cure, not a quick fix…

Back to the old drawing board.

Blah! Deception Anti Wrinkle Cream Deceives

Today, I am a bit bummed out! I received my order of Deception anti-wrinkle cream, but unfortunately, I read some pretty bad reviews of the stuff prior to its arrival. I truly wished I had found this information out prior to ordering. Most people felt it didn't work for them and from what I understand, the better business bureau shows them to be in bad standing due to a large amount of unresolved complaints.

Well … that's just lovely.

I tried Deception anti-wrinkle cream anyway and I have to say, I understand why people are upset.

For one, the jar of Deception anti-wrinkle cream is small--really small--for forty bucks I expected something, well, a bit bigger. I only got 0.75 Ounces—what a jip!

Supposedly, the way the Deception anti wrinkle cream is supposed to work is via "Billions of light-refracting nano-prisms." These prisms are purported to deflect light, causing under eye wrinkles, facial wrinkles or crows feet to lessen to the naked eye--deceiving the eye so to speak.

I will say the Deception anti-wrinkle cream deceives all right--deceives people out of money.

The Deception cream smelled okay and went on smoothly, but I couldn't really see a significant change in my under eyes wrinkles or laugh lines. Very, very disappointing and hardly the best anti wrinkle cream on the market.

Wrinkle cream reviews – A group project

Okay, so today I got a call from my Reunion Pal Becky and I am so glad I did--she just saved me a 100 bucks! You see, I almost went for the Hydroderm anti-wrinkle cream free trial figuring, well, it can't hurt. If they are willing to let me try their anti-wrinkle cream for free, it must work, right?

Well, thing is, it isn't a real free trial. Hydroderm only lets you get the free wrinkle cream offer if you sign up for some kind of membership plan. With the plan, they "offer" to automatically bill your credit card every month. The poor saps who don't read the fine print and order this wrinkle cream will be stuck with a nasty $90 dollar surprise in their bank account on a monthly basis.

Opting out is supposedly murder too, as they will continue to bill you for a couple of months, even after cancellation of the anti-wrinkle cream orders. My friend Becky almost found out the hard way but escaped the fate by being warned by an acquaintance who wasn't so lucky.

So, I decide not to risk the headache and to moved on to the next anti-wrinkle cream on my list, namely Deception.

Said to be one of the best wrinkle creams out there, it seems like an okay investment since it only costs around forty bucks. We'll soon see what Deception can do…

Best Wrinkle Cream: The Hunt Goes on

So, today, I am on the lookout for the best wrinkle cream on the market and wonder how many frogs I will have to kiss before I find a Prince. I am hoping to get a bit lucky and land something fairly quickly, but I realize the law of averages are against me.

Even so, a woman can dare to dream!

I begin by looking up some of the bigger names in wrinkle creams like Dermitage, Hydroderm and Deception. I know about them because I see their advertisements everywhere. It made me a bit curious as to their effectiveness. I have my doubts though, since the pictures in the ads always look retouched to me, which says a lot about the company.

Deception Wrinkle Cream seemed the most cost effective with Hydroderm topping out at almost ninety dollars and Dermitage not far behind.

I figured I would do a bit of digging and research to find the best wrinkle cream amongst the three.

What I uncover will help me decide which to buy first as I try to locate an anti-wrinkle cream that works.

As the late, great Bogart used to say, "Here's looking at you kid!" and hopefully , that's what people will be doing when they see the new and improved me!
