Wrinkles

Anabelle

I'm only 21 and I have very noticable wrinkle under my eyes and a few lines on my forehead.
Is there something I could use to minimise these? Or what should I use to prevent them getting any worse?

Keep your body and skin hydrated, drink lots of water and and keep your face moisturised....oils like Almond, jojoba, emu are great for keeping the skin moist.

It's more likely dehydration then actual wrinkles tbh..

Use sun screen every single day.

Any recommendations? One that I could wear foundation over? I used use ambre solaire but I found that my foundation would never go on smoothly over it.

I have the same problem. I take really good care of my skin and my forehead is destroyed. At 20, I was told it was probably dehydration lines, and spent a fortune on serum, moisturiser and exfoliator from the hydralife range by dior. It didnt make any difference. I do not drink tea or coffee and rarely drink fizzy drinks. I cleanse and tone twice a day with dermalogica products and moisturise, almost always using an SPF of 30. I have semi regular facials (every 4-6 weeks) Nothing seems to help and I am seriously considering Botox.

I'm 27 and I have a lot of forehead lines. I'm very expressive the the forehead area so I'd say that's what did it. Again, I don't smoke and wear sunscreen every day. Drink plenty of liquids too. Some people will just have this, it's perfectly normal. Guaranteed that you are the only person who sees them.

i've tried freezeframe ihibox and wrinkle filler the results are instance !! the inibox is a little harder to use but the wrinkle filler is very easy to use and i can see the difference. i've also started a skin, hair and nail supplement to try and delay some of the signs of aging!!

Unfortunately, wrinkles and the like (unless caused by dehydration/sun) are usually genetic.

Have a look at your mam or aunt. She is an indicator.

Personally speaking, I have barely any wrinkles, at 33, if at all. People always asking me how comes I dont have any. I dont notice cause I look at my face everyday. I can count on one hand the amount of times Ive had a full face of make up on (I cant imagine wearing make up is good for wrinkles.....all that dragging and pulling to your skin). I usually pad on a little bit of concealer to an area (I mightnt have wrinkles, but I do have dark circles).

Am a normal weight, but its because I have a rounder/chubbier/padded out-type face, and Ive oiler-type skin (plus I do wear sunscreen every day). I am a smoker though, so I dont know how Ive gotton away with it so long (wrinkle-wise). I notice when I smile, for example, that I dont squint my eyes, like most people do. Its just the way my face moves when I smile. Nor do I frown alot or raise my eyebrows (my face just doesnt do this!!!). Am actually trying to raise my eye brows as am typing, and it just aint happening. Hahaha sounds quite funny actually.

What about all the chemicals in sunscreen?

Could you expand on this please?


OP, I use Nivea Daily Essentials with SPF 15 as a base. My foundation is SPF 17. I should probably go higher as I'm pale, but that's what I'm using at the moment.

I use an SPF50 base every day under my makeup (Vichy have a great matte one) and sounds like your skin is very dehydrated as people said, drink loads of water and a product like hydraluron would be great for helping your skin feel more hydrated

Hi, Could you recommend a wrinkle filler? or let me know the one you are using. I have a couple of lines under my eyes and i'd like to try to prevent many more forming.

Thanks for that. I haven't used any eye creams before & was thinking of trying soap and glory you won't believe your eyes but i might try freezeframe instead now

Do you know if freezeframe works around the mouth too for fine lines?
