It's really important to get the right kind of anti-wrinkle cream for your skin type. Read lots of reviews, certainly, because they are a good place to start looking for the right kind. But if you have oily skin (like me), they can make your skin even shinier, or if you have dry skin, you might still get white flaking. So getting the right one, is important. Anti-wrinkle creams and even sunscreens can make your skin feel oily, to the point that you might not want to even wear them - which is a bad thing, because then you wind up getting sunburned, and that's even worse for your skin! I found that even ones that were made for oily skin made my skin feel and look shiny and slippery. Then, I read a magazine article that suggesting using serums for oily skin, rather than traditional anti-wrinkle cream. I decided to try it, and to my surprise, I really, really like it! It's not terribly expensive, and it makes my skin feel soft and moisturized, and not in the least bit oily. I use it twice a day, morning and night, and it made a huge difference, even after just a few days. It's easier to apply makeup, and it stays on better, and in the morning, my sleep lines are way less noticeable. The serum I discovered happened to be a cheaper one, only $11 per bottle. Others range from $50 to $90 per bottle. I saw a premium serum for $115 on the internet. I don't know if it worth the price, though, because I couldn't bring myself to spend that much. Serums work great for me, but might not for other people. It should be designed for your skin type. A friend of mine also has problem skin -hers is really, really dry. She can't soak up a single spot of oil on those oil-absorbing skin pads. (I used to saturate 3 of them at a time when I was young! I'm now only using 2). So for her, a dry-skin cream might work better than a serum. Someone with really dry skin, might need to supplement their anti-wrinkle cream or serum with a good moisturizing cream. Look for lotions that include Sandalwood or Ylang-Ylang, or even Lavender or Chamomile. Colloidal oatmeal might work as well. In addition to caring for your skin with a good skin-care regimen, you should take care of yourself in other ways. A good night sleep (your skin repairs itself best during sleep), exercise (boosts circulation and cellular repair, and encourages weight-loss), drinking plenty of water (helps flush toxins from the body, and plump the skin) and eating a good diet full of whole foods are vitally important to staying healthy, and keeping your skin in good shape. There are lots of other tips - google "skin care" or visit a library for more information. Your skin is the very first thin a person notices when they meet you. A healthy-looking person is more likely to meet and make friends. Friendships, as well as keeping yourself healthy (which also keeps your skin healthy) help lead to a longer, healthier life. I really wish I'd learned my lesson when I was younger, and protected my skin earlier in life, but it's never too late to start taking better care of yourself. So find the right anti-wrinkle cream for your skin!
