Except I'm not really using anything right now, since I'm pregnant. But I will be getting out the big guns once this baby is out and I'm done breastfeeding.</p> <p>My family has super thin, white, wrinkle-prone skin and I'm losing skin tone fast (I'm 33 in a week!). I'm planning on a Retin-A scrip and maybe some botox as soon as I can afford it after breastfeeding. Not scary botox...I have some friends that have had just a little in the right places and you can't even tell unless you know what to look for. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-797564 Tue, 21 May 2013 10:33:23 +0000 mrsjazz 797564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TurtleDoves: It's the melanin! Just wear sunscreen, I'm sure you'll stay wrinkle free for a very long time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-797553 Tue, 21 May 2013 10:31:31 +0000 MsLipGloss 797553@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hahaha - Is the Pope Catholic?! Yes indeedy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-797547 Tue, 21 May 2013 10:30:17 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 797547@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjazz: Arab don't either. For real...50 year old Arabs looks 30. (the women anyways...)<br /> However, I KNOW if anyone will age, it is me. I am just super lucky that way.</p> <p>I turn 25 next year and I'll start buying anti-aging products then. Can't hurt right? I already spend an arm and a leg on products anyways. Might as well... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-797505 Tue, 21 May 2013 10:23:07 +0000 Silva 797505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a retin-a prescription for acne / red marks, which helps with aging signs too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-797468 Tue, 21 May 2013 10:15:12 +0000 edelweiss 797468@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yes--since my late 20's, i think. my mom is a big skincare junkie so i guess some of it eventually rubbed off on me. right now i use a kiehl's facial serum, but i'm always trying different ones. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-797460 Tue, 21 May 2013 10:13:36 +0000 illumina 797460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: same as you. I've been using it for maybe 4yrs now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-797314 Tue, 21 May 2013 09:35:21 +0000 looch 797314@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think how you will age is a combination of genetics and external factors, like sun exposure and smoking.</p> <p>My mom has fabulous skin at 61, she hardly ever put moisturizer on, but the lesson from her is stay out of the sun and don't smoke. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-796299 Mon, 20 May 2013 16:37:17 +0000 PointeShoesTutus 796299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do. I've been using them since I was about 23. I didn't need them at that age but I thought it would be a good preventative move. I'll be 30 in less than 6 months (eek!) and I don't have any wrinkles or fine lines. I'm also religious about sunscreen application year round and I think that's helped even more than my various anti-aging products. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-795966 Mon, 20 May 2013 14:38:52 +0000 knittylady 795966@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just am careful in the sun. I wear Oil of Olay fasce moisturizer with SPF on my face year round. I think that's the very best way to ensure younger looking skin! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-795955 Mon, 20 May 2013 14:35:53 +0000 regberadaisy 795955@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@IRunForFun: haha I am too! But for some reason I'm OK spending money on moisturizer. I wait till dept stores do their free gift promotions. :P I also like Murad which is doing a friends &amp; Family for 20% via SAVE20 then 14% back via Ebates! :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-795941 Mon, 20 May 2013 14:32:31 +0000 IRunForFun 795941@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: Hmmm maybe I should look into something like that. I'm really frugal though (well, I'm just cheap, actually.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-795923 Mon, 20 May 2013 14:27:01 +0000 mrsjazz 795923@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TheReelDeal: I look at my grandmother, grandfather, aunts and uncles and I don't worry. There's definitely some truth to that statement! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-795911 Mon, 20 May 2013 14:24:48 +0000 TheReelDeal 795911@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjazz: HAHAHA! My aunts say that all the time. It looks to be true from the skin they all have. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-795906 Mon, 20 May 2013 14:23:29 +0000 regberadaisy 795906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@IRunForFun: that sucks the Clinique one I use is really light! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-795886 Mon, 20 May 2013 14:17:39 +0000 IRunForFun 795886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I recently started using some anti-aging face wash (St. Ives brand) and moisturizer (Aveeno naturals brand) and I swear my skin looks terrible after adding it to my routine. I'm breaking out like crazy; I haven't had acne this bad since I was a teenager! I think maybe my skin is just too oily for anything but light, oil-free moisturizers. Not sure about the face wash. </p> <p>I'm trying to reset my skin now but I might try other anti-aging products in the future. Mostly I just use a daily moisturizer with SPF.</p> <p>Oh, and I'm 28. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-795880 Mon, 20 May 2013 14:16:13 +0000 mrsjazz 795880@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! I'm more worried about preventing pimples than wrinkles. My mom doesn't have any wrinkles yet so I'm not worried.</p> <p>ETA: I don't know if you guys have heard the phrase "black don't crack," haha, but I totally believe in that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-795866 Mon, 20 May 2013 14:12:35 +0000 JerricaBenton 795866@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always did but I haven't since I was pregnant and now breastfeeding. Side question: Does anyone know if you can use retinols/salicylic acid while breastfeeding? I definitely feel like since I've stopped, my skin tone isn't as even as it was when I was using the good stuff! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-795863 Mon, 20 May 2013 14:11:48 +0000 Bookish 795863@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. I'm only 25 and I still have pretty nice skin. All I do is cleanse and then moisturize with tea tree oil lotion. So far, so good. Plus, my parents look a decade younger than they are, so I have good skin genes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-795856 Mon, 20 May 2013 14:09:28 +0000 TheSwissWifeStyle 795856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, whatever I can get my hands on. facewash, toner, eye gel, serum and moisturizer! lol (I'll be 33 in July...oy!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-795815 Mon, 20 May 2013 14:01:41 +0000 regberadaisy 795815@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: it's not really more expensive so why not was my thought!? :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-795810 Mon, 20 May 2013 14:00:20 +0000 lavender 795810@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was just thinking about this! I'm 32 and need a better skin care regiman ( I use aveeno face wash with kiehl's moisterizer)..my easthatician was noticing my sun spots and rec a product with retinol in it at night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-795776 Mon, 20 May 2013 13:53:36 +0000 looch 795776@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, just regular moisturizer. I don't buy into the anti aging stuff, if they really worked, we'd know about it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-anti-aging-products#post-795768 Mon, 20 May 2013 13:52:00 +0000 regberadaisy 795768@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use a Clinique anti-aging moisturizer. I'm 31 and have been using it for 2 years - never too early! :P </p>
