I read some review of an Eye Contour cream that perfectly covers up wrinkles, I think it was made out of silicone or something similar, the catch is that it washes away with water.

I can’t remember the brand or product. Anybody?

I don’t know what it is, but if you find out, let all us old wrinklies know!

Give this a try, it’s cheap: [Maybelline primer for wrinkles and stuff](http://www.drugstore.com/products/prod.asp?pid=279097&catid=183548&aid=338666&aparam=279097&kpid=279097&CAWELAID=120142990000068938&CAGPSPN=pla&kpid=279097).

I don’t really have wrinkles, but some gnarly scars from my psoriasis-whatever, and it works a treat under makeup, when I bother to wear it. If you’ve tried other primers, it’s probably similar, but in case you haven’t: it’s sort of the texture of thin Jello, if that makes sense. It dries to a super soft, silky, kind of powdery finish. But be careful when applying foundation or similar over it, because if you rub, you will end up with stringy balls of gunk and have to start over. 😛
