Do You Check For Wrinkles On Your Face?  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 98/100. Janey1966 (2681)   ranked 102 out of 12,079 in friend 2 years ago

To be honest, I'm not the vainest person in the world; certainly not one for looking in the mirror all the time. For this reason I do not check my face for wrinkles. I buy moisturisers (including anti-ageing whenever I can afford it) but that's hasn't anything to do with wrinkles really, it's just something else to use before bedtime lol. I don't moisturise during the day. I know I should but I don't!surrender

Because I am aware of my hands on a daily basis, what with all this typing I do...I have noticed they are starting to look a bit on the dry side and yes, they are starting to wrinkle up slightly. I am more bothered about that than my face! Strange eh?

Can anyone recommend a decent hand cream (it hasn't got to be Nivea, Garnier or L'Oreal or Neutrogena) so that narrows it down a bit! I once had some Clarins hand cream but I didn't like the texture, it was a bit cloggy.

Any ideas? Do you check your face for wrinkles? That includes the boys.whistle

.Hello, Janey. First off, no I don't check for wrinkles, because I've inherited my mother's great skin. Hang on, that's not absolutely true - Mum made sure I started moisturising from about 15, so I have nicely hydrated skin with no sign of wrinkles, even here in the Spanish sun - and we do have some today.

As for the hands, the best (and also cheapest) hand cream I've come across is Avon's glycerine and silicone. If you don't have an Avon lady near you, you can order online. And if you're worried about facial wrinkles, Avon's Anew range is also very good. I was an Avon lady for many years before we moved to Spain, and when it comes to skin care, I don't think they can be beaten on price or quality

Hiya Sandra. Yes, you do have lovely skin, I can tell! Funnily enough, I did use an Avon product a few months ago (something I haven't done for ages) that I ordered online. It was an Oxygen Facewash and was really good. I may take a look at the website sometime. Thanks for your advice.thumbup

That is an interesting question. I have to say that I have never checked my face for wrinkles. When I wake up in the morning all I do is brush my teeth, then wash my face with plain old water. So far my face is pretty smooth. One of the best hand cremes that works well for me would be the Vaseline lotion.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Janey1966 (2681)   ranked 102 out of 12,079 in friend  2 years ago

Vaseline has been going for years hasn't it so they know what they are doing my friend! Many thanks for your advice, it is much apppreciated.thumbup

I use victoria's Secret, Forever Romance ultra-moisturizing hand and body cream. I love it. I slather it on my hands, forearms and elbows and I also use it on my lowerer legs and knees. That's what I do during the day. At night, I rub a generous portion of olive oil onto my hands, put on a pair of white cotton gloves and sleep with it on. I'm always looking for signs of aging but to be honest you can prolong it a bit but sooner or later it happens to all of us. I don't really see a lot of wrinkles on my face at 62 years old but I do have some sagging. As soon as I get through moving into a new home, I'm going to have one a Lifestyle Lift.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Janey1966 (2681)   ranked 102 out of 12,079 in friend  2 years ago

I have heard of Victoria's Secret but I don't think their products are sold here in the UK, but thanks anyway. What on earth is a Lifestyle Lift? It sounds like a surgical procedure to me.shocked


myLot reputation of 92/100. LaurenInLA (1812)   ranked 932 out of 12,079 in friend  2 years ago

Lifestyle Lift is a surgical procedure but only takes about an hour. Essentially, the only places that they lift is the area below the eyes but it makes such a tremendous difference in how old the person looks. I never thought that I would consider any kind of plastic surgery but I'm starting to realize how vain I really am. I've always said that people can get face lifts but the hands are a dead giveaway when it comes to age. Sorry, I didn't realize that you were in the UK when I suggested the cream. I forgot about another fabulous cream that someone introduced me to. It's called Ahava and you can purchase it on the internet. It's a little pricey but you use such a small amount of it that all in all it's not that expensive. It's made from minerals from the Dead sea,


myLot reputation of 98/100. Janey1966 (2681)   ranked 102 out of 12,079 in friend  2 years ago

Thank you so much for your explanation, it's much appreciated. You are right about hands. No good having loads of procedures done on the face if your hands look like wrinkled prunes (and that goes for the feet too) but I'm not suggesting for a moment your hands and feet are like that...just generally.blush I will bear the Ahava name in mind, cheers for that.happy

I probably ought to but just can't do that

I hate it when my hands are dry, I go looking for any old lotion for them, Heck, I'm not too fussy - I'll put Carmex (lip balm) on them if that's what I've got!


myLot reputation of 98/100. Janey1966 (2681)   ranked 102 out of 12,079 in friend  2 years ago

Haha! To be honest, I have been known to put the moisturiser I use for my face on my hands...only a little bit...but it does work. Better than nothing!lol

I use different brands (cheap ones) with Shea butter in them. The Shea butter seems to moisturize better than even some of the expensive brands. I, too, seem to notice my hands more than my face. Maybe because I know my face is filled with wrinkles...I especially love the crows feet around my eyes.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Janey1966 (2681)   ranked 102 out of 12,079 in friend  2 years ago

I love crow's feet too, I cannot understand why some people want to get rid of them! As for Shea Butter, yes, my current face moisturiser has that ingredient in it and I must say, it does the trick nicely.happy


myLot reputation of 97/100. hofferp (2894)   ranked 2,926 out of 12,079 in friend  2 years ago

In my case, I just have to remember to use it. It's not so much what I use, but just plain remembering to use it. I guess I get lazy...and I can't reach my back!


myLot reputation of 98/100. Janey1966 (2681)   ranked 102 out of 12,079 in friend  2 years ago

Err... I think I'm too young to be checking for wrinkles right now. Hehe. I put on lotion to prevent dry skin, but I don't really get wrinkles. A really good product that I use is Aveeno, and this also goes for face wash. I really like Aveeno, although its products can be quite expensive sometimes.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Janey1966 (2681)   ranked 102 out of 12,079 in friend  2 years ago

Yes, I think I have heard of that brand and thanks for mentioning it to me. I will look out for it in future, I am sure.happy

I am going to give you my biggest secret about good skin. People say that I don't have wrinkles, at least not visible wrinkles.
I don't buy expensive creams with empty promising. My secret works for entire body, including face and hands.
I use bio- oil for my hands and my face. It absorbs very easy and it has quality the same as very expensive serum.
You can go online, check for Bio-oil or PurCellin oil. The oil has benefits of oil without being greasy.
I know that it was very popular in UK. Many people buy Bio-Oil as a scar or stretch mark product, but it works for dark spots and wrinkles as well.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Janey1966 (2681)   ranked 102 out of 12,079 in friend  2 years ago

Wow, I never knew that about Bio-Oil as when it's shown as an ad on the television it just shows someone using it to treat stretch marks (as you say) or as a body oil. I think they've "missed a trick" there haven't they? Many thanks for telling me about it and you are right, this product is mainly sold at a large chain of shops here in the UK called Boots. Thank you.happy


myLot reputation of 97/100. polachicago (8508)   ranked 92 out of 12,079 in friend  2 years ago

I know from insiders that many products are mixed with similar ingredients as Bio-oil and are on the market as a face serum for over $180 per one oz. I use it all over my face including under eye, but it is wise to check if you can tolerate it under the eye. As far as the rest of the face the product is very mild and safe.

I do but they don't bother me that much. It they come out of my face, just have to make sure I wash my face too often. Some cleansers also will do. But I don't really get wrinkles that much.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Janey1966 (2681)   ranked 102 out of 12,079 in friend  2 years ago

The way I see it, if we don't check our faces every day we won't realise we're getting wrinkles in the first place, do you know what I mean? Thanks for your response, it's much appreciated.happy

did you guys know that you DO NOT have to wrinkle with age?
well brain research shows that stress causes a chemical reaction in the body that harms it. Also if you energize your chakras properly and COMPLETLY REMOVE stress from your life than you are golden!!


myLot reputation of 98/100. Janey1966 (2681)   ranked 102 out of 12,079 in friend  2 years ago

I will bear this in mind, thank you so much for your response and welcome to MyLot.happy Yes, I agree with you, a positive outlook changes everything. Beauty from within my friend.thumbup
