I find myself now more and more putting on various ointments on my face. from Retinol, to constant vitamin oil, to oil of olay…and yet wondering does any of this work?
Ladies do you have a secret regime you use and its working? please share. I feel like I’m causing more skin break outs than less wrinkles
Hydrate …I keep hearing this one, how much of cups of water is ideal? 4?
Keep it simple. Literally Simple cleanser and moisturisers, very good range and fragrance free.
I drink around 1.5 litres of water a day, plus tea or coffee.
Babies Farm Moisturiser is excellent. But having said that I still have an appointment at the Dermatology Dept tomorrow A.M. at a hospital which is at least thirty miles from where I live
I rarely use anything on my skin,in the winter if i am walking and it is windy i use NealsYard face cream.
And i have had it for approx 5/6 years,that is how little i use it.
I do not think creams work,the companies are rubbing their hands together with ALL the money they make.
Depends what you want from a skin cream.
All creams work in as much as they put moisture back into the skin when you need it, but it has to be used regularly, and as someone once told me, used more often especially during, and after the menopause when us ladies naturally lose a lot of moisture.
So used a few times a day, every day, any good moisturiser, or skin cream, will make your skin look and feel much better.
Ive always used creme royale, which is a moisturiser with honey and ginseng which i get from a health shop , small tub , quite expensive , but its what your type of skin likes
My mum swore by Ponds cold cream , and she had beautiful skin right up until she passed last october aged 97, ,!
I believe they use a numbing cream. It’s the wrinkles around my eyes that’s the issue. I’m not even sure if it can be remedied. It’s tough getting older. I’m definitely wiser though.
Your skin is the biggest organ in your body - essentially your gut/intestine, so eating clean helps.
I also do not use any soaps on my face unless I really have to (like if a dog licks me or something).
If I had dry skin I would try coconut oil, castor oil, olive oil etc, but wipe on and off (otherwise your body will try to ‘dry’ your skin making any issues worse).
