So I was FORCED to develop a good skin care regimine early on in my life that I have had to stick to in order to prevent acne. Luckily, I think I'm growing out of my acne, and now I am sticking to my skin care regimine in order to prevent wrinkles. I've always kept my face out of the sun (when I was young my acne medication made my face sensitive to the sun, so I was forced to stay out) and now I'm really trying to wear sunscreen everyday to prevent wrinkles. My grandmother has the most beautiful skin (she is 76 years old and people who see us out together think she is my mother), so I know that great skin runs in my family. Now it is up to me to make sure it stay that way!

I just put aveda mosturizer on my face in the morning, it has sunscreen. I don't ever wash my face. Water splashed on my face makes me panic. I've never had acne, & I hardly ever wear makeup (If I wear makeup I use these cleansing clothers from Ponds that are like wet naps to take the make up off). I use Olay in shower body lotion for extra dry skin & love it. My hubby lotions my back at night before bed. I also use Jergens ultra healing for my hands because I get really bad hang nails.

Okay, I'm probably one of the worst on here, if not the worst. Wash my face with Dial soap in the shower in the morning. Remove any leftover eye makeup with baby oil on a tissue. Apply Oil of Olay Regenerative Lotion, then foundation and powder, etc. That's it. I go to bed with my makeup on most nights. Most people think I am younger than I am, by several years. I do try to eat right, low fat, no or minimal trans fat. Eat very little red meat. Mostly chicken and fish. Take fish oil capsules. Drink green tea. Don't know if any of that helps my skin.
