Any tips on how to fight acne when you’re over 30 (now dealing with pimples and wrinkles)?!
Retinol works on both. It increases cell turnover, but can be drying, so use a p.m. moisturizer.
I drink a lot of water and get enough sleep but still have dark circles. Help!
They’re largely genetic (sorry!), but products with niacinamide, caffeine, and retinol brighten the area. Elevate your head while you sleep!
How do I ease the appearance of deep lines between my eyebrows?
Simple: Stop making that face! Squinting to read? Wear glasses. Try a cream with retinol or vitamin C. For best results, Botox or Dysport.
What’s the right order to apply my skincare products?
Apply products from thinnest to thickest consistencies, so start with liquid or gel serums, then top with creams or lotions.
What can I do about the little lines I’m seeing around my lips?
They’re caused from pursing (so don’t, unless you’re kissing!). Don’t smoke. Limit straw sipping. Retinol at night, sunscreen in the a.m.
Does sleeping on my stomach really give me wrinkles?
Yes! Sleeping on your back is the best position. Keep your head propped up on pillows; you’ll be less likely to roll over.
I’ve heard you should eat 'clean' for younger skin. Translation, please?
Eat foods as close to their natural state as possible—fruits and veggies, not over-processed. Munch on berries, tomatoes, and broccoli!
How long should I expect to use an anti-aging product before noticing results?
Be patient. Four to six weeks for improvement, with best results at the three-month point.
Do 'lifting' moisturizers really work?
They usually contain retinol and hydrating ingredients, which plump skin, so yes, they work, but don’t expect face–lift–like results!
