1. Yes 2. Eye cream and just started adding a couple serums to my routine. Does exfoliating count? 3. I think so. 4. Will be 37 in about six weeks. Ugh.

I don't really use anything that's specifically anti-aging. I live in the fog and mist, so sunscreen isn't even a daily thing for me. My biggest skin gripes are dryness and redness. I just started using Laneige stuff to combat the dryness, and it's making my skin feel and look fantastic. I'm sure I should be doing more anti-aging, but I feel like I look good for my age and don't want to fuck around with my skin too much.
2. Which ones? PC antioxidant serum or Skinceuticals Phloretin CF for daytime. OST C20 Vit C serum at night. SPF 30-50 during the day. I wish that I could use Retin A, but despite several attempts, my skin seems to hate it.
1 Are you using any anti-aging products? Yep, although I'm making an effort to be more consistent. 2. Which ones? Aveda Green Science Eye Cream and Aveda Green Science Line Minimizer on the lines from the edge of my nose to my outer lip. 3. Are they working? I hope so, I'm more in the preventative stage with my eye cream and as for the lines, it's too early to tell. I don't use it consistently enough. 4. How old are you? 29
ETA: I forgot I just started using this after a recommendation from Rachel Talbott (that I'm sure she was paid to endorse) but it sounded really good. It's a little heavy for my oily skin but I only use it at night anyway.
1. Are you using any anti-aging products? I use a moisturizer and eye cream from my local spa (they make it) 2. Which ones? see above. 3. Are they working? Who knows! I do know that my skin feels and looks good. My esthitician claims I have the skin of a 29 year old when she tested it for certain things (elasticity, etc.) 4. How old are you? 36
I will add that getting regular facials, wearing sunscreen, and using good products makes a world of difference!
1. Yes and have been for years. 2. I've used so many different kinds. Right now I'm using Kinerase c8 peptide serum, Algenist eye renewal balm and a retinal serum for around the eyes that I only use every few days. I want to use a lightened that I got to fade some acne spots, but it made me break out. 3. I think they help. 4. 37
I don’t think any of them work. The best way to not age is to take care of yourself. Try to eat good and get plenty of exercise. Also avoid things like drinking too much alcohol and smoking. Simply put, live a clean and healthy life and you’ll stay looking and feeling young.

1. I have only recently started. 2. Neutrogena healthy skin anti-wrinkle moisturizer with SPF 15 3. Too early to tell. I do like it in general, though. Nice moisturizer. 4. 37.
I don't have much in the way of wrinkles, really. Smile lines by my mouth. A couple of lines between my brows. That's it.
My biggest concern, at the moment, is age discoloration. Not that I really have much of any going on, but I'm pretty sure it's gonna happen.
1. Are you using any anti-aging products? Yes 2. Which ones? Philosophy Time in a Bottle 3. Are they working? I wanted to try it out b/c I have a line on my forehead that I hoped would go away or would be less noticeable, but I don't think it's working 4. How old are you? 38
1. Are you using any anti-aging products? Yes 2. Which ones? I am alllll about Ole Henriksen.
AM: OH Truth Serum and Truth Crème Advanced Hydration
PM (I admit I don't wash my face every night though ) : OH African Red Tea Foaming Cleanser, Invigorating Night Treatment, Sheer Transformation and Ultimate Lift Eye Gel 3. Are they working? I hope so... 4. How old are you? 34

I work out a few times every week and go to yoga. I don't drink alcohol more than twice a year and that's when I'm cutting up. I also don't drink soda, save an occasional Shirley Temple. I don't drink coffee, unless you count Starbucks' seasonal Mocha Cookie Crumble. I don't smoke. I don't drug lol. I eat a pretty well-balanced diet and am in a healthy weight range. My physician says I'm his best patient lol. I have a college aged student and people consistently think I'm his sister or his girlfriend. I went to get a mammogram and the girls at the desk, both younger than me, thought I was lost. I honestly could go on. This thread, however, isn't about merely looking younger or feeling young. It's also not about clean living. It's not in health and fitness. It's in makeup, because I want to know about people's experience with anti-aging products...but thanks?
I’m sorry if my response sounded harsh. It wasn’t meant that way. To be truthful, you probably look much better than women half your age. It sounds like you take good care of yourself. Sometimes we look in the mirror and see something different than everyone else does. I don’t know what products help someone look young.

Unfortunately, none of these things are going to make my wrinkles go away. I have fair skin and spent too much time in the sun in my teens and twenties. I am paying for it now at 43. No amount of exercise and healthy eating is going to fix my face. I sure wish it would!
1. Are you using any anti-aging products? Yes. 2. Which ones? I use a moisturizer with sunscreen, a strong retinol cream (renova) and an AHA product. 3. Are they working? They definitely help. 4. How old are you? 43
