Whether its crow's feet, worry or laugh lines--we've got your wrinkle fix at a smoother-than-botox price.

For crow's feet ...

Splurge: Dr. Brandt's Crease Release's amino acid complex releases the skin's own muscle relaxers, smoothing out fine lines and wrinkles.
Price:
$150

Cheap: Put boiled green tea bags the fridge overnight, says celeb dermatologist Dr. Jessica Wu then place them on closed eyes. The antioxidants and cold help fight lines and de-puff.

For worried brows ...

Splurge: Prevage Anti-Aging Treatment by Elizabeth Arden. Packed with antioxidants to reverse skin damage.
Price: $150

Cheap: Peel and mash kiwis and use the paste as a facial scrub, says Dr. Wu. The high Vitamin C concentration can brighten skin, the seeds scrub away dead skin cells.

For laugh lines ...

Splurge: DDF Wrinkle Relax twice daily for 60 days.
Price: $82

Cheap: Mash yellow squash and use as a mask. The bright veggie has a lot of Vitamin A, which helps stimulate collagen production and makes skin smooth.
