Hello Plain and Simple,
I think with what Havana sent you you will find pahlenty! of information for your age range. A standard of care for anti-aging would be the following:
Morning - Wash with a Ph balanced cleanser.
Then use a C-serum of some sort. Skinceutical C & E ferulic is excellent. You can also make your own - there is a current thread here that has some wonderful ideas.
Your C-serum can be allowed to sink in for a good 20 minutes and you can add another product over if desired.
You can alternate your C-serum with another anti-aging product of your choice. I use Karin Herzog Vita-Kombi 2 when I don't use the C-serum - for your skin Vita-Kombi 1 might be a good choice. there are so many options.
At night - you definitely want to be using a retin A product - probably 2-3 nights a week to start. Probably .05%. AllDayChemist is a great resource here.
Another highly recommended product by dermatologists is glycolic acid - 5% is supposed to be a percentage. I've just started using alpha-hydrox souffle which is a 12% and very reasonably priced at around $15.00US.
You could use the glycolic acid 2X a week at night when you are NOT using the retin-a. And then other nights maybe another product or just taking a break.
I use a retin a of some form or another at least 4-5 nights a week with no problem. My skin tends to be oily though.
A clarisonic skin brush is nice for cleansing. Expensive but worth it. My favorite night cleanser is Professional Cleasing Crm from Karin Herzog. It's a lovely product. I often use the Clarisonic in the morning with a regular foaming cleanser.
My favorite secret weapon is Doing facial exercises. Agless if you Dare is very popular here.
Also I am using a great duo of products for the undereye area called eye Solutions by Zach Merril. It brightens and lifts the eye and also smooths out creases and bags. Check out the thread for yourself.
Well, that's enough of my advice
Best of luck in pulling it together and YOU WILL!
