yjay: ~Dead Serious Yjay! I'm 32 & lets say i still get asked for ID sometimes when i'm buying alcohol  I always put it down to having good genes . . .My Nan & Mam havent got a wrinkle in sight so i'm counting on that!  ~I suppose i'm getting to that stage when most women start worrying about the effect of "Old Age,Wrinkles" but i dont feel that way[i]Just Yet[/i]. . .me think i'm just comfy in my skin as it is right about now . . the here & the now w/o the added worry of something that might or might not appear on me face! ~I always figured folks over 40/50 need anti wrinkle/aging cream. . . .My understanding of such products is it claims to diminish the lines of wrinkles. . since i dont have any,what's the point of using it exactly? Prevent Wrinkles? I aint even guaranteed i wont have any even after using the cream for dunks! I'm actually a tad skeptical about using Anti-crinkle cream products & all the stuff in the ingredients. . .dont wanna jinx my genes i Kid! I'm going to read up more on it tho. . .~Okies looking forward to chat more about it! I'm going to need a heck of a lot of convincing tho  |

What's in Anti-Wrinkle Face Creams? Retinol is one of the first antioxidants put into anti-wrinkle face creams, when it was discovered that these substances could fight the effects of free radicals in the environment that lead to the aging process. Retinol is a vitamin A compound, and can be found in prescription form under the name tretinoin. This ingredient was the first that was approved by the FDA as a wrinkle treatment. If you use an anti-wrinkle face cream with retinol, you may indeed see a slight improvement to your skin as well as a reduction in wrinkles. However, retinol is not safe to use if you are pregnant or planning to become so. Another popular ingredient in anti-wrinkle face creams is hydroxyl acids, which are derivatives of sugar-containing fruits. The reason that hydroxyl acids are effective ingredients in anti-wrinkle face creams is that they can exfoliate the dead skin on the surface and encourage healthy growth of the skin cells underneath. The end result is smoother, more evenly pigmented skin and a younger appearance. Hydroxyl acids will increase the sensitivity of the skin to sun exposure, so make sure that you are wearing your sunscreen every day if you are using an anti-wrinkle face cream with hydroxyl acid in it. There are many other potentially effective ingredients that might be found in anti-wrinkle face creams, including copper peptides, kinetin and coenzyme Q10. Coenzyme Q10 is a nutrient that can diminish the appearance of fine lines around the eyes with no harmful side effects. It has also been found that conenzyme Q10 can protect against sun exposure if it is applied before heading outside. These are the ingredients that you should be searching for on the product labels of anti-wrinkle face creams to ensure that the product will have at least some of the anti-aging effect that you desire. |

I do not have any wrinkles and I honestly don't think that having wrinkles is the worst thing that can happen to a woman but I use anti aging products. Mary Kay time wise products are great. They also have an even complexion serum that does not bleach you. You can buy them on my website. For people who spend time in Nigeria and here in the states I can get it to you in 1-2 weeks to Lagos after you place the order provided you have a minimum order of $500.00. You can pick it up at my cousin's boutique in Lagos. Here is my website to order. http://www.marykay.com/faithe |

Question: Antioxidants - What Are Antioxidants I'm 30 years old. I keep hearing about antioxidants in skin care products, but I'm not sure if I need to use them. What are antioxidants, and should someone in their 30's use antioxidants? Answer: Absolutely. To make it really easy to understand, antioxidants prevent and actually repair damage to your skin caused by free radicals such as the sun, pollution and smoke. All of these things cause your skin to show signs of aging, such as wrinkles and discoloration. By using products with antioxidants such as serums and moisturizers, you're skin is soaking in the antioxidants to protect your skin. Because you're just starting your 30's this is a great time to add antioxidants to your skin care regime. You'll get a head start on the aging process that's to come in the next decade. Stick with products that you don't wash off. Serums in particular are a great way to get antioxidants into your skin because they sink a bit deeper into your skin's layers than a moisturizer. If you have oily or combination skin, a serum may be all you need to get the moisture needed. If you have dry or normal skin, you may want to add another moisturizer to your face after your serum sinks in. @mhkchic, interesting article!!!!! About.com:skincare |

yjay: ~Ta. for sharing your article on Antioxidants . . ~ I strongly agree about sunscreens. . . The number of folks that are ignorant about using suncreen is staggering. . . one lady actually asked me if "Black People" are suppose to use sunscreen! ~Having read up on Antioxidants. . i realise they are somehow incoperated into my meals. . Fruits & Veg, Potato, Garlic,Whole Grain,Spinach. . . I didnt however know they cud slow the effect of ageing! That was a pleasant surprise! ~I hear a lot of good reviews on Olay Regenerist Serum. . . have you tried it? olay.co.uk/product-range/regenerist/index.php |

mohawkchic: not surprised abt wat she asked u at all! even my cousin that is supposed to be "exposed" said the same thing! "black pple dont need sunscreen" wat she said. abt the regenerist serum!!! read a lot of reviews as well o! been trying to get it! been difficult getting it here in nigeria! i even asked my friend in the uk abt it and she was like "wo ma bother ko kin shise" hope u can read that? she was like dont bother it doesnt work & i was like but bola a lot of pple are really talking abt it! guess its the same nigerian mentality that has refused to go away, when we try out something we expect fast action, lol not moved though by her own convictions o! its just been difficult getting it here in naija! i actually ve a few other products i wld like to try! do u know anything abt ROC products ? heard good things abt those as well! |

i loved all ur write-ups on this. im presently using avon anew ultimate day-anti age/age repair cream(spf 25 uva/uvb) it feels good on my skin but i was kinda sceptical about using it initially tho;with all that i've read here nw, i guess i'll just use it at least for nw. p.s- personally i think most avon products/mary kay products are absolutely divine |

Hi, I'm seeking for some instruction please. The circumstances are, that I'm not remaining for a very long time at the same place because of my work. I truly am in need for qualified procedures for my cellulite, but I don't have unfortunately the time to go to a beauty spa More than that, what's the idea of spending money for these procedures, as in any case I am not able to to go all of them. I have by now at home anti-cellulite soap and some other beauty product, but this is not serious and I'm still trying to find something more professional. If you are acquainted with something that may be in help for me, please inform me as quick as possible. I'm still very young for this kinds of problems, so I'll find the funds for anything that you assume that's worth. Thank you ahead of time. |
