I have a friend she is 13 and she is asking what should she put on her face. Her skin type is normal, not too dry, not too oily. She has pimples and blackheads and stuff like other teenagers out there. Should she apply products such as eye cream, acne serum, anti-wrinkle cream, hydrating serum, moisturizer, etc.?

I know I am a little young to start using wrinkle creams but I really feel that I need them. I have been having really bad anxiety problems over the past year and a half or so and the stress from it has really taken a toll on my appearance. I have an anxiety disorder that causes you to be really stressed out like all of the time. I have sought treatment for it but it is still something that I struggle with. The stress it has caused has really aged me though. I honestly think I look about ten years older than I am or more in my face. I even had some gray hair. I have puffiness and a few wrinkles around me eyes and the skin on face is definitely not as firm and supple as it used to be. Stress can age you so badly so quickly and I just want to reverse some of the damage that has been done already. Right now I use a regular face lotion before I go to bed and then a dual spf and moisturizer for during the day plus moisture surge cream from clinique that isn’t for aging or anything. I just want to know of any good, anti-aging products that are out there that would be safe for my age. I also drink lots of water and eat healthy to take care of my skin. I also have very sensitive skin so I need something that isn’t too harsh. I probably couldn’t afford something that costs more than so something in the -50 range would be good. Any other skin care tips would be welcomed.

My doctor just switched me to using something called erythromycin and benzoyl I believe and now my skin is really dry and flaky. She told me it would be like this, but that I shouldn’t use any moisturizer. My acne has pretty much cleared up but I really can’t stand the dry skin (I’d almost rather have a little acne) Is there anything I can do to get rid of the dry skin and still keep using the treatment? Is it okay to use a little moisturizer or can I use sunblock or something to get rid of the flaky skin? Thanks!

i am 56 ,no real wrinkles, a line here and there, but face looks tired and starting to sag a little..My skin is sensitive, i have an occasional rosacea flareup. for the most part my "beauty" routine consists of rinsing face morning/night with cool water and sunblock. no makeup, nothing else. at night I use a moisturizer, no specific brand. I am a very busy, tired nurse who frequently works 60 hrs a week. Divorced for 5 years, and haven’t had as much as a door held open for me by a man, I would really like to try to improve my appearance. I realized I don’t even look into a mirror and want to look nice, for me. maybe have a life again! so, I want to know what I should be doing, I do eat a healthy diet and take vitamins, but what about skin care? also, make up? I am fair skinned, auburn hair (colored, as my hair is very dark). hazel eyes. I don’t think I even own any make up or even lip stick!! HELP..bring me up to date , please!! I’m not cheap..but don’t want to spend a horrendous amount on products. Thank you to all in advance for your help!!

I am a 41 year old woman. I have always been told that I look young for my age,however, I do have fine lines around my eyes, forehead and mouth. I would like to try to get into a daily skin care routine to help stop or minimize wrinkles, tighten skin and reduce that puffiness and/or darkness under my eyes. Currently I just wash my face with soap and water and use a moisturizer on it in the morning. I don’t have a problem with acne or anything. I have been searching the web for the best anti wrinkle creams and so much comes up that it is hard to decide. I don’t want to have to spend a whole lot on this. I have been looking at Olay but not sure if that works, RoC, and others. I just need some help from people with actual experience in anti aging/wrinkle creams to help me narrow down my choices. I have combination skin and am not allergic to anything. Any advice on this would be helpful as there is so much to choose from and they all say the same thing.

Nivea has a few different products for skin tightning, cellulite, etc. Just a little confused about which one is best for my purpose.
I’m in my early 30s, but have had the orange peel thing happening on my stomach for the past year.
Just purchased Nivea’s Goodbye Cellulite, in addition to Nivea’s Age Defying Moisturizer, both for use on my body and not my face.
But I wonder if the "orange peel" belly is even cellulite or just excess skin from when I lost 10 pounds, and if the cellulite gel would even work for this.
NIVEA PRODUCTS’ CLAIMS
Anti-Age Treatment Body Lotion
Less wrinkles, e.g. at décolleté or arm pit area
Less dryness all over the body
My Silhouette!/Slimming & Reshaping Gel-Cream
Leads to a reduction of up to 3 cm on targeted body parts such as thighs, hips, waist and belly.
Good-bye Cellulite Gel-Cream
Visible reduction of the appearance of cellulite at the respective body parts.
Help! Don’t want to use the incorrect product for my belly….
I forgot about Skin Firming Moisturiser by Nivea.
CLAIMS
Noticeably firms the skin
Tangibly tightens the skin
Moisturises the skin
Sigh.

I’m going to go to the store in a bit, (Target) to buy a few things, and I kind of want to buy some new make up while there.
And my problem is with concealer and foundation, and a dewy finish.
First of all- I have dry skin
So with my concealer, what would I buy to make sure it doesn’t go into any small lines? Because even though I don’t have wrinkles, when it dries after a while it creates lines that look like wrinkles.
With foundation I do not wear liquid or cream, because I don’t know if I apply it everywhere or only places where I need coverage? And if I apply it only in smaller areas won’t it look funny to have weird lighter and such spots on my face? (And yes I know I have to find that perfect shade that blends into my skin ^^)
And then there’s the glow. How do I get that dewy glow on my cheeks after finishing? I don’t want to have to wear tons of Moisturizer and lotion to get that. And the glow I am talking about is more of like a moist glow not like a shimmer from those sparkles in make up.
I also have old acne scars and small pimples. But not much just here and there.
Also after a day of smiling and talking the make up creases at the sides of my mouth.
I just want to make sure my make up stays put all day.
Please help! D: I’m 19 and still don’t know how to put on my make up correctly. 
Also if you have recommendations of some nice products (non-expensive please) feel free to say them.

I’m in my early twenties, and this may seem like a rather vain question, but what anti-aging skin products should I be looking for?
From my understanding, it’s best to start treating your skin as early as possible (and I care very much about my skin). A lot of products are used to reverse wrinkles and such, but I’m looking for the cream/moisturizer that would be most fitting for my age, seeing as how I haven’t developed much for wrinkles yet.
Now besides the obvious exercise, sunscreen and water, what’s the best product for preventing aging signs?

Hi,
I am in middle school and I am wondering if this is an okay amount of makeup:
I use moisturizer (like face cream, it prevents wrinkles when you get older, less dry skin, ect), a light amount of cover girl powder over that and blend it. It looks like I am not really wearing makeup.
On my eyes I use a light shade of an almost faded pink eyeshadow. I have pale skin so it looks pretty good.
I usually see girls with heavy mascara and foundation and eye shadow at my school, but my aunt says I shouldn’t wear makeup at all, so I just want some more opinions.

I have always taken good care of my skin. I have never smoked, but I was a sun worshipper. Is it an age thing? I hate it!
I have been using ROC Deep Wrinkle Daily Moisturizer, twice a day, for about 3 weeks now. It only helped a little.
I am 53.

I am 16 years old and I am wondering what my skincare routine should consist of. I know for a fact I don’t been to start with the anti- wrinkle stuff, but I am wondering, like eye cream? Is that needed when I am 16? I am a super big skincare freak. I follow my daily face wash/ toner/ moisturizer routine almost religiously. But I am wondering what kinds of products I should be using. If I should add something to my routine? Something I want to do is even out my skin tone. And washing my face daily and using toner has kind of helped that. I watch videos and look up all these different skincare routines, but I don’t want to be spending on a 0.6 oz. jar of eye cream if I don’t need it.
What products should a 16 year old be using? Ones that are not expensive.

so there are skin care essentials like moisturizer, something that exfoliates, sun screen, etc. im a teenager now, and my skin is healthy, but that doesnt mean i shouldnt try take care of it.
i have very fair skin, and i know that tanning is unhealthy, and it causes wrinkles and cancer. i would like to wear sun block on a daily basis to protect the skin on my face because i know its exposed to the sun often. but im not going to straight up put sunblock on my face. i hate the way it feels. it just makes me want to go take a shower. (i also dont wear makeup)
are there any alternatives that work just as well?
admin April 16th, 2011
Okay I’m 15, and I have VERY sensitive skin, to the point that some products will actually give me a chemical burn. I need a moisturizer and a cleanser that will help me get rid of my acne but not be too harsh on my skin.
DONT say proactive, I’ve tried it, made it worse so please dont suggest it.
And I cant afford to go to a dermatologist so I have to have something over the counter, any ideas?

I am 18 years old.
I use scrubs 3-4 times a week, moisturize in the morning and night with my bobbi brown moisturizer (I have sensitive skin), I use Differin (a retin-A product), take vitamins, watch my diet, use benzaclin for acne, and wear SPF 15 in the winter and SPF 50 in the summer (I only wear SPF 15 in the winter because I live in northern Canada and we don’t get much sun when it’s -35 for four months).
Yet my skin is still flaky, dry (Even if I slather it with vaseline) and wrinkles are developing, especially under my eyes, in the nasolabial folds and around my mouth.
My genes for skin suck, my dad looks about 15 years older than he is and my mum has had a lot of sun damage (although she has also used juvaderm, botox and CO2 lasers so her skin is better than it would be, still, she tanned until she was about 45).
Is there ANYTHING I can do to make my skin better? People always say, "You look so tired" or, "You should take care of your skin" But I DO!

Hi,
I am 24 years old with dry skin. I dont want a heavy or an oily moisturizer, but i want something which will hydrate my face, have at least spf 15 and will prevent early signs of wrinkles.
I also dont want a cvheap cream. Brands im considering are la prairie, clarins,dior, lancome, etc. If you have any suggestions as to the best cream for my age group I would really appreciate it.

I am 29 years old. I want to start taking more care of my skin but do not know what avenue to take. Right now I use a day moisturizer that contains spf 45(Neutrogena healthy defense). I want to use something at night…what do you recommend?

I’m not quite sure what kind of skin care routine I should start with. I usually get blackheads on my nose, but lately I’ve been getting deep pimples under my eyes, along my hairline, and my forehead. They’re pretty painful, and I tend to be a picker, so I figured I would nip it in the bud and just start taking better care of my skin. I have somewhat oily skin and I tend to wear makeup, and on top of that I sleep next to my boyfriend who has EXTREMELY oily skin and hair. I’m wondering what some suggestions would be for:
-face wash
-moisturizer
-eye cream
-make up remover
-serum
-anti-wrinkle cream
-emollient cream
-base
I’m not very girly, and don’t know much about brands or what’s best for oily skin. Any suggestions or recommendations would be appreciated!
