This really works! I bought a jar from my hair stylist when she put some on half my face. 7 minutes later - WOW. My marionette lines around my mouth were gone, my brow was lifted into an arch, small lines around my eyes and forehead were gone. It lasts about 6 hours the first day, then builds to about 8 hours, etc. After about 45 days it's supposed to last all day. I'm in my early 50's and have tried so many products. This one isn't even that expensive compared the price of items I've used in the past - any they didn't work!

This product is amazing, it really works and reduces or eliminates wrinkles. I use it around my eyes for crows feet and laugh lines. Although a small jar, it lasted almost 6 months for me! A small amount really does go a long way. I've tried lots of other products, this one actually delivers. Amazingly, a very small amount applied with a brush is all you need. If too much is used, a white reside is left which can be removed by water and a tissue.

This product does work, but if your crunched for time when your getting ready for the day this product can feel time consuming, it does take practice not to use to much but you do see a diffrence with this product.

This is the best product that I have ever used. It works best for me if I apply my makeup first then put the Athena over that. I have been using this for about 3 years now and I do love it!

I am on my third jar of Athena.
CONS: Expensive and requires a slight time commitment
PROS: It works. It makes my skin look poreless and minimizes undereye creases.
It's unclear to me why some reviewers continue to report problems with white streaks. Perhaps the product dries faster on their skins due to climatic conditions or due to the products applied before the Athena, including soaps and cleansers.
Even though I am middle-aged, I still have oily skin. At night I use sea buckthorn oil on my face, so in the morning I have to wash with with soap. Then I apply a water-based gel moisturizer. Then I brush on Athena. I don't get completely still the way the directions say to because I never have the time, but I do leave my face alone until it settles in and looks dry. Then I apply water based foundation if I look splotchy (or skip it, depending) and some powder. The directions say to use mineral makeup; however, mineral makeup looks really fake on me, maybe because I am pale or have wrinkles, so I don't use it.
If you have trouble with Athena, make sure you do not have grease or oil on your skin anywhere, because that seems to interfere with it. Also make VERY sure you do not use alcohol-based toners or glycolic acid before putting on Athena or you will get flakes and a fake matte look.

I am 31 years old and I only have began to notice a slight drooping of my eyelids, so I thought I would give this a try. The results? EH... MEH... I can "feel" a tightening affect and I can see how it may be beneficial to someone with more pronounced wrinkles or someone with bagging and sagging. Yet, if you have minor drooping or very fine lines, particularly around the eye area, I don't think this product will help much. In fact, I hate to say it, but I think my eyelids may look a little worse now after using the product than before. I think about the fact that the tightening effect feels as if there is a constant "pulling" effect on the area in which the product is applied. So, what happens to skin that is repeatedly pulled? Exactly! It looses some of its elasticity. I am not a dermatologist by any stretch of the imagination, but it stands to reason that this product should be used only occasionally as a quick fix to look nice for a big event. Otherwise, you may find the more often you use the product, the more you will actually "need" to use it.

So does it work? MEH, not so well around the eyes for me, but there was a noticeable change. I have stopped using the product because I am convinced my eyelids look a little worse and I will not purchase it again.

I thought it was crazy, recieved it as a gift and HOLY CRAP !!! LOVE IT ! Seriously you have to get this and this price is amazing ! DO IT
