How To Get The Benefits Of Botox Without Needles

Sure, getting wiser with each passing year is great—now if it weren’t for wrinkles, everything would be perfect. While Botox is a simple fix for some, for others, a needle anywhere near the face is too close for comfort. For those who prefer results without the possibility of blacking out, we’ve rounded up five Botox alternatives that’ll smooth your lines from the comfort of your own home. This one goes out to the fainthearted (us!).

This daily leave-on mask is packed with hyaluronic acid (the key ingredient in fillers) and elasticizing amino acids and peptides to stimulate the skin, making under-eye contours and cheekbones look plump and youthful.

This refreshing gel cream wakes up tired eyes with caffeine and hyaluronic acid to reduce the appearance of crow's feet over time.
