I hope this forum lives up to its name, because I need some professional help! I'm at my wits end trying to select anti-aging products to use and need some guidance. What is actually effective at getting rid of crows feet, bags, and wrinkles!?
I think an important question is how old are you? Should you be getting lines and wrinkles? If you're 25 you should not and there is something not right; if you're 35 plus, then yes, maybe you need to look at specific skin care products.
The advice provided by some of the answers so far of drinking plenty of water, eating good quality non-processed foods and staying out of the sun as much as possible are all going to benefit your skin.
The other thing to keep in mind is that most of the department store type anti-aging products actually do nothing for the health of the skin and only work on reducing the symptoms temporarily. As soon as you stop using the products, the lines and wrinkles come back and are sometimes worse than they were before you started using them.
I won't name the brands, but many of them will not make this known to you...
My suggestion is to do some research into the type of ingredients that are known to reduce lines and wrinkles - look for herbs, essential oils, etc., if you then see these listed on the product information, you have some chance of buying a product that will actually do what it claims...
Also have a close look at the other ingredients. More and more of the hundreds of ingredients used in skin care products are being scrutinized and many have been identified as potentially harmful - so take care, do your research and read all available information
