What are the best serums or treatments for smile lines?

[HayleyBrooke91]

Mine are getting “deeper” and more noticeable even when I’m not wearing makeup. No matter what kind of primer or foundation I use, as the day goes on, you can really see my smile lines as the makeup separates. There are so many options on here but i feel overwhelmed. I’m willing to spend money, but I want it to be on a product that actually works with committed use. I really don’t want to get fillers yet 😩

I have great luck with  NuFACE FIX® Serum 0.5 oz / 15 mL @HayleyBrooke91 it does wonderful with fine lines

Hi @HayleyBrooke91 - I recommend a serum that has hyaluronic acid and moisturizes in order to help fill in fine lines. Here are a few products worth checking out (some are not sold at Sephora) -

• Skinfix Barrier+ Triple Lipid-Hyaluronate Serum 1 oz/ 30 mL
• LANCER SKINCARE - Soothe & Hydrate Serum with Hyaluronic Acid
• SkinCeuticals Hydrating B5 Gel
• SkinCeuticals Hyaluronic Acid Intensifier
• Eminence Organic Skin Care Bamboo Firming Fluid

@HayleyBrooke91  retinol is going to be the ingredient you need to help stop the aging process if you aren't already using something. A hydrating serum or Hyaluronic acid product will help fill/plump your skin in the meantime.

if you aren't already using a retinol Sunday Riley A+ High-Dose Retinol Serum 1 oz/ 30 mL and DRUNK ELEPHANT - A-Passioni™ Retinol Cream are the best I've tried. The A-Passioni also comes in a mini so it's less expensive. THE ORDINARY - Granactive Retinoid 2% in Squalane is a pretty good budget option too

For hydrating serums my favorite is MOON JUICE - Beauty Shroom™ Plumping Jelly Serum but Kate Somerville Wrinkle Warrior™ 2-in-1 Plumping Moisturizer + Hyaluronic Serum 1.7 oz/ 50 mL and Drunk Elephant B-Hydra™ Intensive Hydration Serum with Hyaluronic Acid 1.69 oz/ 50 mL are also really good options. The new Tatcha The Serum Stick Line-Smoothing Treatment & Touch Up Balm 0.28 / 8g might be more ideal as it'd offer precision placement and the thicker balm/ stick formula might give a better filling effect but I haven't personally tried it so I can't say for sure
