Crusoe Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" /> all a big con to get you bought into buying those anti-ageing creams (hundreds of pounds for some of those tiny tubs i believe) Society is completely focused on looking young at the moment, can't last IMO.

Vixwagen Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 Don't worry Nic - the sooner you start using anti-aging products the better. My mum has always used anti-aging moisturisers and her skin is gorgeous (she's 55) - use under eye cream too, and always stroke your moisturisers in upward strokes. Sure he could have been more diplomatic in his approach though - would have had something to say if it had been me!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicki Posted February 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 I've been using a clinique eye cream for years anyways, but I decided that I needed a new every day moisturiser.As for healthy lifestyle - I drink lots of water, I eat lots of fruit & some veg (bit fussy on my veggies) and I try to get 8 hours of sleep each night!

Everyone gets old. Well, the lucky ones at least style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> I honestly don't understand what the panic so many people have is about, it is only a number - your lifestyle defines how healthy you are.
