Anti aging treatments-what are you using?

Of course I am talking about preventing not curing.

What are you ladies using?

I am using mild cleanser and toners and moisturizers with as much antioxidants as possible and always use SPF at least 15(in cloudy winter days) and 30 all other days(products also with UVA protection)

Is there anything else you would add?

I heard some people are using derivates of vitamin A,some AHA and BHA...

SPF 15 is a must for me, but I do not use any anti-aging products as I am not sure what is good for my age (37).

Sunscreen or moisturizer with at least SPF 15 for me.

20% glycolic acid cleanser, microdermabrasion kit 2ce a week, sunscreen (the most important!). I want to find some kind of serum/night cream type product but still need to research. Oh, and I want to go back to using Vit C b/c that is supposed to be really helpful.

Naturally, can you recommend a good copper product (name brand) for around the eyes?

Kim,do you know of any products -especially high SpF sunscreen,serum and toner with loads of antioxidants and some with other not to 'aggresive' stuff?

Thanks Kim,will take a look!

No kidding! I've been stretching it out because it seems to do such a lovely job of toning and hydrating! Great, another lemming....*sigh* :icon_lol:

I use a lot of DDF products, their cleansers are great. I also really like this eye cream by MD skincare called firming eye gel with vitamin C. It feels really silky and doesn't make the rest of my oily skin more oily, seems to be doing the job it claims to be doing, fine lines look better and I wake up looking rested.

I would recommend Avene, La Roche Posay, Vichy or Bioderma - you live in Slovenia, you can probably get them there. Great, stable sunscreen protection with high SPF. Most of them are designed for allergy prone skin. I would especially recomend Avene creme or emulsion, 50+. I heard Avene has best skin care ingridients, such as antioxidants etc. I also love Bioderma skin fluide 100. such high protection and it's extremely light, like a normal cream, not greasy at all :clap.

I recently discovered Pure Deming products. DMAE, High Grade Vit E, Vit C, Idebenone, Jojoba, emu oil...just some of the ingredients. They don't advertise so it's hard to find, thus I decided to buy a bulk amount and pass this great stuff along. They have a 70% repeat customer rate! :clap

OK, I fixed it...I see someone has actually noticed my error...it was supposed to be Cowgirl_at_Heart I guess I got to typing like a mad woman and missed the "t" Now I guess Im a cowgirl with good hearing LOL

Wow! I already know I'm not doing very much to protect my skin from anti-aging. It just recently became apparent to me over the past few months. I've always used a sunscreen in my moisturizer and foundation. I've heard bits about CoQ10, but I haven't looked into it. The number of products that are out there can be so intimidating. I've thought about trying the ROC Skincare line. This is a really great post, so I'll wait until we get some more answers to see if anyone has an opinion on that line, as well as others.

Thanks! I have Avene and I like it for winter,spring and autumn,but when it's really hot it's a bit too much for me.I like Clinique superdefense for oily skin but would like some alternative.

I say for prevention, and even correction Retin A, glycolic acid, topical Vit C and a good sunscreen.

SPF & 30 &45(depends on how long I'm outside) Renova (for 6 years) Clinique Skin Renewal Cream(or something like that) and ALL ABOUt EYES by Clinique too. I also get various samples of skincare in the mail or, more, with purchases and try those.

I can tell by reading other women's answers, I'm sort of undisiplined when it comes to taking care of my skin.Need to find a program & stick with it more than I do..

Clinique doesn't have best filters, they are not very photostable...

Maybe try Avene 50+ Emulsion (not creme!) - it is designed for oily skin so it mgight be a better option for summer. I didn't try it yet cause it's hard to get it in wintertime but it should be available summertime. There is a polish forum about cosmetics and all girls there seem to love this stuff.

I would personally recommend Bioderma Photoderm max 100 Fluide. It is really light, the lightest GOOD sunscreen I ever tried.
