If you're age 20 or over you should be following a disciplined skin regimen for both day and night if you want to preserve the elasticity and collagen in your skin.  The bad news is if you skip skin care you will pay for it in your forties with dry, sagging skin that is prone to wrinkles.  The good news is, every year there are more and more innovative skin products and treatments coming out to prevent wrinkles, moisturize and minimize pores.  While we can't permanently reverse the effects of aging, we will look a zillion times better in our senior years than any previous generation.  At least, I plan to. 

I use a LOT of stuff on my face but this is my routine at the moment. If you have a different skin type than normal or have allergic considerations, don’t despair…there are skin type options of every product line listed here.  You only have to ask your pharmacy cosmetician to recommend one for you.  They are more than happy to help. Don’t forget to ask for a sample.

 

 

Neo- Strata – GH Serum

A facial serum containing growth hormone.  This is an excellent product.  Love it.  Immediate tightening effect.  Iridescent pearl formula absorbs quickly.  Priced reasonably.

Lancôme

 

Absolue Precious Pure Sublime Cleansing Foam 

What can I say? It is absolutely sublime.  Ask your cosmetician for a sample.  Can be massaged into the face and left on for awhile for added benefit. When I wake up, my skin looks almost airbrushed.  Very pricey but worth it if you can afford it.

Night Routine

Absolue Sublime Oleo Serum

A fabulous skin serum, this one gives FANTASTIC results.  It is part of my night routine.  When I use this I wake up looking 10 years younger.  Seriously.  Pricey but worth it.  I use it as my 3rd layer on top of the NeoStrata GH Serum and Declaré Caviar Serum.

Day Routine

Génefique Yeux

Youth Activating Eye Cream – This is a nice, light eye cream for day that borders on a serum.  Absorbs quickly so you can put your undereye make up on.

Shiseido White Lucent

At last I have finally found an eye cream that really removes black circles under the eyes.  This one actually lives up to it’s claim.  In fact, it works so well, I’ve ditched most of my undereye concealers.  Use it twice a day, morning and night, under your usual eye cream and stop looking like Lurch the butler from the Addams Family.  Although if you overdo this product you can also look like Casper the ghost.
