Anyone ever use 'Frownies'

ncmc

I have just come across these on a US beauty website:

http://www.frownies.com/

and I am quite tempted to buy some. The sound like such a simple idea and the online reviews seem quite positive.

I have some crows feet I am desperate to improve... have anyone used Frownies?

yup bought em off ebay a few years ago. Basically they are like the gummed side of a brown envelope and are triangular shaped and you stick them on your face. They feel very wierd when you stick them on but they do stop you frowning. My worry with them was I usually wear night creamat night so I was wary of sticking these over it or of the long term effects of sticking them on everyday.
They are grand, not very romantic to stick on before bed I didn't find them amazing though I changed cream and found that worked a lot better for preventing wrinkles and frown lines to be honest

Are you still able to use night cream with them, or do they have to be put on bare skin?

What cream did you change to? I can't hit on a good anti wrinkle cream that doesn't cost the earth

Hiya, I've still got some of the frownies I can stick 2 or 3 in an envelope and post to you if thats any use as a tester. I used to put the cream on sparingly let it dry in well and then apply the frownies after. Just pm me your address if you like

Re the cream I tried so many night creams found the ones that were too thick made my skin breakout and clog up and my daily moisturoiser (dermalogica skin smoothing cream) was not heavy enough. Then I changed to eucerin q10 anti wrinkle night cream its amazing stuff I have sensitive skin and i swear its done wonders for it I wake up and my skin is fresh and smooth. I also use their eye cream now for day the q10 one and I love it. I got mine in boots for about 16 euro its a large enough jar and lasts me a good while. They also sell it I think in mccabes and I got it in there on specisl price one day

Thanks so much for the offer, I think I will try that cream first and see how I get on with that. I have reservations about sticking stuff on my skin! I am in the States in Sept and I know the Frownies are dirt cheap over there, so might pick them up then.

Thanks again for the offer though and the tip about the eye cream.

no problem! definately give the cream a go as it doesn't cost too much and might make a big difference
