Thanks! I'm afraid that it might just be too pricey for my budget as well.

I like the Olay products as well. I use the face lotion everyday.

I have "tested" so many different face creams/washes. One's from a plastic's surgeons office, to Arbonne, to a variety on the drug stores shelves. Truly the Olay products have been the best for my face.

The "7 Signs, Total Effects" serum from Olay is awesome!! It makes my face feel smooth as ever.

The face washes I use are Olay Definity pore redufining scrub and Olay Definity iluminating cream cleanser. I never feel like I have to "rush" to my moisturizers after my face has been washed.

I also use the Olay toner then move onto the moisturizers.

L'Oreal age perfect day/night creams are nice also.

I use the Olay products as well, but have not been consistent. As of yesterday when I saw a closeup picture of me taken a couple of weeks ago, I'm committing to being consistent, and taking the time to do all the steps to try to get my skin in it's optimum condition. If you find anything that will take about 10 years off, pleeeeeease let me know. I think having to quit taking my hormones last year is taking it's toll.

In a couple of weeks I'm going with some friends on a shopping trip to Austin. I hope to find a store that sells Laura Mercier & see if that will make a difference. I'm getting desperate.

Marilyn, go see a dermatologist. They have so many products and creams that you can use on your skin that will dramtically help. I use prescription Retin-A cream for acne, but it promotes collagen production in the skin, so it also prevents/corrects fine lines and wrinkles. I know Villette uses Retin-A for wrinkles and I have seen before and after pictures on her and WOW! I'm 23 and I swear people think I'm 12 or 13 and I attribute it to using this Retin-A. There are just so many prescription products out there that will help, it's definately worth a trip to the dermo.

Well, I got a sample of the Arbonne and it made my face breakout. So, that was an easy decision!!!!!!!!! Now I have a good reason not to buy their expensive products!

Rebecca, thank you for the suggestion. I did try Retin-A a few years ago, but could not get past the intense pealing stage. I looked like I had a white beard and mustache I was pealing so badly. My job is outside sales & even though I know the end result will be an improvement, I don't know if I can make it through the initial peal. I need to look nice at all times, at least at work. I may try going back and see if they can scale the program back a little and have a lighter peal for a longer time or something. I do have some Retin-A I bought in Mexico that I could try again myself and see what happens.
