Any tried and true facial tightening cream?

 I'm noticing that my face is really not looking all that great.  While it is obviously more slender, I'm getting bags under my eyes and there is loose skin under my chin through my neck area.  
Do you have any cream/lotion that you use that you honestly think tightens up your facial skin?  

I never said it would be easy. I said it would be worth it.

I've heard good things about Nerium, but it's super expensive and since I have rosacea, I can't use it. My esthetician recommended it, has seen it work, but won't recommend it for me because of my condition.  

She says the body firming cream isn't worth it,  especially if you need a lot of help, like me.

I was an Arbonne dealer for several years.  Their products are extremely effective and also expensive.  I buy them on eBay now.  The RE9 Advanced Set is over $300 from Arbonne and about $200 on eBay.  You can also try a sample or travel kit from eBay to try before you buy the set.  Taking good care of your skin will make you look and feel so much younger.

Although I do not use a skin tightener, I really love (love love) the skin care products by DHC.  I suspect they have a good tightening cream.  You can find them online.  They can be expensive, too.  But not as expensive as Nerium!

I use stuff from Oil of Olay. I used to use expensive stuff and I really didn't see a difference. Taking a make up class can help you learn to how to blend make up and change the contours of our face.

I've used Oil of Olay products since I was in my early 20's. I have tried other, more expensive, products, but always go back to using Oil of Olay. I use it because my mother always used it.

I woke up in between a memory and a dream...

no,I think they are all useless. You would be better off saving the money you would spend on them on a face lift.

When you are in the rapid weight loss phase it is common to have a haggard and drawn look.   After you reach goal weight your fat redistributes itself and you start to fill out in the face again.  No amount of skin cream is going to change that.  I would get a good hydrating lotion.  We tend to not eat enough fats and that can really dry out your skin.  There is not a lotion out there that actually tightens the skin.  They temporarily might make your skin feel tight, but as soon as you wa**** off, you are back to square one.

I read somewhere that it is more important to use something at morning and night than what you are using. Get started!!
