Hi there guys!
First I want to say im really excited to have joined this forum because the people here are so helpful and so nice. I have never felt this comfortable about starting a thread on a forum as i do now.
I have a problem with my skin like most people i can’t seem to find my answer and im hoping some of you can help me out.
The Problem: ( sorry for the length)
Im 20 years old college student and my skin is horrible! it looks pretty bad for my age i think. Ok first of all i break out still at 20 not a lot but i get 3 to 4 zits a week. BUT that’s not my only problem im 20 and i look like im on my 30s! that is my biggest problem. idk why but i think my body doesn’t produce enough collagen my cheeks are my main problem because i have saggy cheeks at my age! That is really horrible and im starting to get laugh lines because i laugh too much. Idk if its normal or not but lately i have been really concerned specially when i get my friends or family say things like omg you look so tired or omg you can totally pass for 25 or 30 idk how can people be so cruel sometimes not thinking i probably feel terrible hearing this at age 20 makes me wanna put a paper bag over my head and draw a little smile on it instead. i mean i should only be concerned about sunscreen and a good moisturizer but instead im in the anti aging section already. i really have a horrible time trying to find the right products and im desperate for someone to lead me to the right direction. I cant use something so rich because i can break out since i have combo skin. I was thinking RA? but idk if that would help with my sagging and the two wrinkles on my forehead i already have!
God this is horrible idk what to do anymore aside from the RA.. can any of you help me out? i will be forever grateful idk where i can get help and i cant afford a derm right now because of my college expenses. The messed up part about all this is that it has affected my self esteem horrible seeing how many of my friends have taut beautiful 20 year old skin while mine looks older than my moms. I wish it had been different but this is the way it is and now all i can do about it is try and fight it or find a way to make things better. I don’t want to look like a raisin by the time im on my 40s.
I know 20 year olds should not be using anti aging products but in my case would it be ok? would i need the hardcore stuff? or would i be ok with just RA and or Vitamin C Serum? i apologize for the long Post i just really wanted to state my problem in hopes someone can help me.
Thank you so much in advance!
