I was a very expressive theater kid but my $25 buy eliminated my wrinkles, friends can’t believe I never had Botox
A SKINCARE fan is raving about a beauty buy that completely eliminated her wrinkles.
The former theater kid explained that despite her expressive reactions, the $25 product worked wonders on her lines and not the script kind.
Redditor B-Dot-1414 shared the anti-aging tip in a post.
She revealed that the $25 Frownies Facial Patches were her go-to to banish wrinkles.
“I have been using them for ten years, and most of my friends have trouble believing I have never had Botox,” she said.
“That said, I have not had as much success wearing them around my eyes as I have my forehead.”
To see results, she urged skincare fans to remain diligent and patient with the patches.
“I will say, it did take 30 days or more to start seeing consistent results,” she said.
“But it really did change the way I make facial expressions. Ex-theater kid, so I used to be veeeeery expressive.
“I still can be. It’s just reigned in a bit by the Frownies.”
An advantage of the patches, she added, is that they function like Botox but better.
“You still can move your forehead; it just weirdly made me much more aware of it,” she said.
“I grew up with my mom telling me constantly to stop moving my forehead when I talked because I was giving myself wrinkles, so sadly, I did develop a complex about it.”
She revealed that she applies the patches at night, right before bed.
“Just for sleeping,” she said.
“I don’t know how long it took, honestly, for lasting results because it has been so long. I recalculated, it’s actually been 14 years now.
The top 5 habits of people who look young
Dr. Michael Aziz, an internist and the author of the upcoming book The Ageless Revolution, revealed five habits of young-looking people.
“Adopting these healthy habits can significantly impact how your skin looks as you age,” Dr. Aziz told The U.S. Sun.
“They are simple yet effective, contrasting with expensive creams or invasive procedures that may not deliver lasting results and could potentially harm the skin.”
- Avoiding sun exposure and UV rays, which can severely damage the skin.
- Avoiding smoking, as it generates free radicals that harm the skin.
- Getting enough sleep, which enhances blood flow to the skin and improves its appearance.
- Following a healthy lifestyle, including a diet rich in vegetables, fruits, and fish, as well as managing stress effectively.
- Prioritizing skincare, including daily use of high SPF sunscreen, moisturizing after washing, and regular exfoliation.
“It just seemed like one day I was not expressing as much, and my lines were not noticeable anymore.”
She added that the patches got rid of her 11 lines after she placed them above her nose.
The trick, she explained, is to opt for the Frownies brand as opposed to other facial tapes.
“You really have to use the Frownies brand if you want to actually retrain your facial muscles not to move as much when you’re not wearing them,” she said.
“The silicone ones are nice for plumping the skin temporarily, but the Frownies are the only ones that work for me long term.
“I did try other brands in the past because they seemed easier to do nightly, but it just didn’t have the same long-term results.”
