Desperately Looking for Best Skincare - 29 years old

I have used a few skincare lines, ranging from Mary Kay, Murad, Kinerase and Arbonne. My sister in law just finish esthitician school and told me about Environ. It looks like it got great reviews. She told me about looking for producst with Vitamins A & C and their different forms. I have keratosis polaris on my jaw line, under my chin (and upper arms) This tends to make my skin more dry and rough. I am 29 years old and from loving the sun all these years am starting to see the crow's feet around my eyes. I need something that is going to be anti-aging and smooth out my skin. I am geting very paranoid about the wrinkles and I am sure the sun damage is there but I just can't see it. What do you recommend and is Environ a good way to go?

It sounds like your sister-in-law, has done research on the product. If you trust her opinion, give it a try. Be sure to read the ingredients and make sure that it will not conflict with anything that you are already using before you begin use.

Try and see whether it will suit your skin. Wrinkles prevention is the best way to go at your age. Use SPF 30 daily and stay away from the sun.

there are some new treatments available that not only kill bacteria in your skin, but they also increase collagen production in your skin. Blue/Red light treatment at the right levels in your skin will increase collagen production, which will reduce wrinkles and smooth out skin. You can read more online one site I know about is www.miracle-solutions.com

The 'kill bacteria' part is somewhat proven, there isn't a single study I know of on increased collagen production due to red or blue light.

Dear Mrs Hogue,

As you've already tried several products, you
probably know which ingredients are good
and which are not. Have you considered that
in most popular brand skin cleansers, the
main ingredient is still Sodium Laureth Sulfate,
which is an irritant for many people.

I've had to change my shampoo because of
the itching I have when I use products that
have SLS.

Happy Hunting!

Robert
