Review: Instantly Ageless - Thumbs in Pocket



The Claim:   Instantly Ageless™ is a powerful anti-wrinkle microcream that works quickly and effectively to diminish the visible signs of aging. The revolutionary ingredient is argireline: a peptide that works like botox—without the needles. Instantly Ageless™ revives the skin and minimizes the appearance of fine lines and pores for a flawless finish.

The Review:  I was gifted a sample of Instantly Ageless™and gave it a try after a night of insomnia.  The manufacturer claims that this is a powerful anti-wrinkle cream, but I found it to really only be effective on bags under the eyes.  My fine lines and wrinkles were still there, but the bags were gone and this gave me a much better appearance.

A little bit goes a looooonnnnggg way so you can get about 5 applications for the eyes per tube (if you're willing to cut the tube open).  The smell is quite pleasant and it was very easy to use.  My only caution would be to make sure you don't use too much or it will leave a white flakey residue.


Here is a video of me applying the product 
and the end results



I've given this product a "Thumbs in Pocket" rating, because it's excellent at getting rid of bags and saggy skin under the eyes (temporarily), but it doesn't really work that well on wrinkles.  I tried it in the following areas.

Eyes - Got rid of bags, but still had fine lines

Forehead - (before and after photos below) Some improvement in my wrinkles, but I went a big overboard and looked like I had dried glue on my forehead.  I blotted it with a damp cloth to get rid of the flakey look.



Flakey Forehead 


Nasolabial Folds - No improvement

Neck - No improvement

While this product does definitely help improve the eye area, it is not Botox and the claim that it's Botox in a bottle is a little bit overboard.  If you're looking for a product to help with bags in the eye area this product is great!
