Any recommendations?
Maternal grandmother had great skin, I wish I had more of her genes. Sadly I'm heading the paternal route and have more lines than london's underground. |

"Have a look at retinol (start with low concentration and build up). Hyaluronic acid may have a plumping effect. Chemical exfoliant will help with dullness.
The Ordinary are the bomb for the price."
I tried vit A capsules used with a face wand to no avail. Olay have brought out a retinol product so am trying that. Also have L'Oréal hyaluronic acid. So fingers crossed.
I'll check out The Ordinary. |

Lol. Trying to do the preventative thing. (I also use salicylic acid for spots)
My mum likes the Buffet serum from The Ordinary. |

Go botox and fillers - Beats any cream on the market. |

Cant go wrong with the ordinary. the caffeine solution is great for the eyes and a little goes a long way. Have also been using a derma roller with my serum on my forehead since its starting to resemble a walnut |

You can go wrong with The Ordinary, I will say... introduce one thing at a time, patch test, start with low concentrations. It's potent stuff. |

If I'm finding serums expensive, I cannot even afford to look at botox prices  |

Totally agree with that. I was looking at skin advice and it was stating which one to put on first, then x, y, z but then if you do that and have a reaction, you won't know which one it is. Also, new beauty regimes often causes spots as the skin detoxifies from previous or no regime. |

Yeah. That's another point. If you want to age slower: skip the tanning and slather on the sunscreen. Need both UVA and UVB protection. |

I celebrate my whiteness (= I'm an indoors person, I hide from the sun as I find high humidity suffocating and burn easily). I've used face creams with uv protection since they first came out. |

I have some teenage sins I'm sure I'll atone for. (Have to be more careful with the sun with some of these products) |
