I was carded today. lol Its been at least ten years since that happened so I was stunned for a moment. I gave the clerk my license. He asked my what my birthday was and what street I lived on? I told him and he said I thought it was going to say 91 not 71. I said good genes. That is part of it but I do a lot to maintain my health and skin. I had extremely bad acne and my aunt took me to a dermatologist. After I was 11 I lived with my grandparents and aunts and uncles. That is when my obsession with skin started. I am a licensed Aesthetician. At 16 I started using Retinol A and have always used sunscreen, drink lots of water and have used oil of olay since I was 22. What about you. Do you have a favorite product, or regiment that you believe benefits your looks? Don't be shy gentlemen feel free to join the party. Thanks for stopping by.

I wish I could do that. Soap dries my skin out really bad and sometimes I have reactions to some brands.

I just use moisturising body wash, and try to eat a more balanced diet. I've never been one to spend money on make up or beauty products of any kind. Except for the occasional tube of chapstick. Sometimes, my husband will complain I don't wear makeup or do anything extra special, but usually when he's drunk. I have a bad habit of chewing my nails. Bad I know. My skin isn't flawless by any means, but it remains soft. though I have some calisis from wheelchair usage.

My aunt was an Avon lady that wore makeup to the hay fields lol I come by it naturally. lol I had a really horrible acne when I was a teenager, if my aunt hadn't taken me to the dermatologist I probably would of wound of with bad paunch marks. To each there own. My one uncle was in a wheelchair. He would wear gloves sometimes to help with the calluses. When he was only 35 he drove tractor trailers and was in a horrible accident. I commend you for your strength.

I like using Dove baby soap for washing my face. Salt and honey as a scrub, oatmeal and cucumber mask instantly brighten my skin. I also drink a lot of water and green tea. No moisturising creams or serums,just almond or Apricot oil. Rose water as a toner. Simple and effective for me. Plus budget friendly.

I had used olay before, but it's ponds cold cream that I really like. I had started using ponds since I was about 12 but not often then because I would only do that when I rummage my mom's dresser. When I started putting make up on ponds has become an essential part of my regimen as cleanser and moisturizer.
