As women approach 40 their skincare regimen needs to be assessed. Even though aging occurs gradually and sometimes it is hard to notice the slight changes, especially when we fall in love with a product that we use for years, swear by it and refuse to realize that times have changes, and so have we.
It is very important to be on top of what is available on the market and moisturize should be our number one priority. While we all dream about a quick fix, or better yet a miracle in a bottle we have to give up our unrealistic obsession with flawless skin. Life takes over, wrinkles happen; aging is a natural and beautiful process that is inevitable to everyone.
Instead of concentrating on how many wrinkles you have embrace yourself for all that you achieved, for everything you have learned and for all that is still ahead. Now after you are done embracing, lets move on to enhancing. To downplay some of the natural effects of aging follow those simple steps, and enjoy your beautiful features, and remember the best is yet to come!
You Can No Longer Afford to Have Direct Sun Light. It's bad for you;get over it
If you are still smoking, your skin will have irreparable damage
Your skin will be dull and gray. Just imagine yourself with grey hair and grey skin. If you haven’t put down that cigarette of yours yet, don’t come crying to me.
You are what you eat.
Vegetable and Fruits are good, Meet and Dairy is bad. Learn to live with it I did.
Most of all diseases are caused by stress only syphilis is from pleasure.
Your face is your treasure, wash it twice a day and moisturize it.
NEVER go to sleep with make up on. I don’t care what time you are climbing into your bed.
Your décolletage is in immediate need of attention, so is your neck, your hands,elbows and heels. Remember MOISTURIZE.
If you have the urge to touch your face, think twice. If you still have the desire, go wash your hands.
Your make up has not meant to last forever, you are over 40 how old is that Channel eyes-shadow of yours?
Exercise your abs, work out your legs, and don’t forget your jaw muscles.
WATER, 10 glasses a day will keep plastic surgeon away.
Water with lemons, water with cucumber, plain water and herbal tea is your goal. Stay away from carbonated and sugar drinks.
And don't forget to share what worked for you.
I just know I go through a lot of product from Bath and Bodyworks-shea butter, hand cream, face moisturizer and eye cream are my mainstays of life
I am a huge water drinker!! I have never smoked and am not much of a drinker...a nice glass of wine if I’m out to dinner is enough for me. I do notice that stress plays a big part in how skin looks!!
I’ve been naturally oily all my life—good and bad. Keeps the skin nice but I do get an occasional break out when it’s crabby week!!
I am not a big dairy fan...I hate milk, take calcium supplements and eat tons of dark green veggies.
Great tips!
My co-worker uses a cucumber mask (puree the cucumber in a blender and adds a egg) I have not used it yet, Have you?
she LOVES it
Ladies, are you ready for the best kept secret???
OLIVE OIL.
Splurge on a bottle Virgin Oil, from Traders Joe or Costco, and every night before you go to sleep just cover your face with olive oil, and don’t forget you neck.
Keep me posted on how this works for you.
Yana
Yana, my grandmother used to do this wonderful tip all the time. Plus she also rubbed it on her hands and then put gloves on while she slept.
Woman died at about 78 and still had barely a wrinkle on her face.
I have heard this tip also Yana...a make-up artist friend of mine told me that Olive Oil...First Cold Press is the best to do this with. I have oily skin in the first place on my face that is...can’t apply this there...but everywhere else I can.
The other important thing about older skin IS...EXFOLIATION!
...Exfoliate...exfoliate...exfoliate...especially if you are oiling, creaming, buttering up your skin on a regular basis. Get rid of that dry skin first...then apply...
I have always had nice skin. I work at it. lately i have been under stress. My skin looks tired. How can I get the glow back?
try one of those home buffing/exfoliating programs. I used both MD Skin and Philosophy-both work quite well.
I can help you there! Hi my name is Delfine and I happen to be a skin health expert w/ Kate Somerville in Houston Texas exclusively in the Neiman Marcus store. We have a product called Quench 24/7 a fantastic serum that gives you back that glow by locking moisture in your skin cells for 24 hours! I can bet you probably don’t have the right exfoliating treatment or moisturizer for your skin type either. Those are the 3 most important products to use for your skin plus a great eye cream. Just let me know if you would like me to send you samples and information on the right products to use on your skin. You will love the results! I promise.
Great tips Yana.
In addition to your healthy eating tips, I’d like to suggest essential fatty acids as found in nuts, fish, flax seed. They are necessary for heart and neurological health in addition to skin healt. Studies have shown that the omega-3 fatty acids found in fish oil can help to alleviate dry skin as found in conditions such as eczema.
