You have probably seen a TV infomercial for "Crepe Erase," a product that promises to make wrinkled skin smooth as glass. I haven't purchased the product, but I have purchased similar "miracle" products over the years that were duds.

We all get wrinkled at different rates and at different times of our life. As for Crepe Erase, I believe it may show skin improvement, but it's temporary. You have to apply it constantly and consistently, and that's not a bad thing, I guess if you have nothing better to do.

Good health and a pleasing appearance are mainly "inside jobs." No external cream can do it—good health results from how you live and what you do over time. If you deny your body excellent nutrition and adequate exercise over time, it will show on the outside of the body in more ways than one. We blame signs of decline (or wrinkles) on "old age."

All of that said, I think I've found something that DOES work. A naturopath told me I needed more protein in my diet. I thought I had had enough, but I never reject advice from someone who knows more than I do. (Ahem)

Long story short, I've bumped up the protein in my diet, and the result is impressive. After about a month, the flabby skin in my upper arms has tightened.

No, you don't rub cream on the outside; you put more protein inside!

I'm adding a photo to show the two main protein products (there are others!) I take it daily. Collagen is an excellent source of protein. I add a scoop to my morning coffee and take it in a 'dynamite" drink with other products in the evening. Collagen dissolves quickly, and it's tasteless. Be good to yourself and your wrinkles (if you have any). More protein in your diet will probably help you, as it has helped me.
