Antioxidants are an essential ingredient in preventative wrinkle creams, and experts say this product fits the bill. Olay Regenerist Regenerating Serum, Fragrance Free, receives top marks from both experts and users for its silky texture and effective, free-radical-fighting ingredients such as niacinamide (vitamin B3), an antioxidant that helps skin stay hydrated and retain its natural elasticity. Consumers looking for a more aggressive wrinkle treatment, however, may be more interested in a retinol cream, such as Neutrogena Healthy Skin Anti-Wrinkle Cream -- Night (*Est. $13 for 1.4 oz.), which is better suited to reducing the appearance of already existing fine lines, but may irritate sensitive skin. Users say Olay Regenerist is a great primer, creating a smooth surface for makeup to adhere to. One drawback: Olay Regenerist may not provide enough moisture to satisfy those with dry skin, but it is lightweight enough that it can easily be layered with a more emollient cream. Like most wrinkle creams, it doesn't contain sunscreen, so if you're using it during the day, you want to apply a separate sunscreen.
