Anti Aging Skin Tips

anti wrinkle cream at 17?

Hi im 17 years old and i've just started using an anti ageing moisturiser and cleanser (its the nivea q10 one) i don't have wrinkles yet but i figured prevention is better than the cure right? also my family has a history of ageing quite early so am quite worried... Thing is apparently using anti wrinkle cream at this age can actually ecourage wrinkles! Am worried and quite confused. Can anyone help? thanksxxxxxx

1. just get massage before taking bath with any oil
2. Anti-wrinkle cream is just a deep conditioning moisturizer. I advise that you use your own moisturizer and cleanser for your skin type, because at 17, you are prone to more acne. And anti-wrinkle cream is thick and oily.
3. I dont think you need anti wrinkle cream, besides most of them say they prevent or repair wrinkles but they are usually full of crap. It cant hurt to use them as they are all basically just mouisterisers. Look after your skin, ie, Dont get sun burnt to often and dont smoke it cause premature aging, exercise etc if you look after your skin you should be ok
4. I wouldn't worry. Worrying causes wrinkles which is what your trying to avoid right? Don't be afraid using wrinkle cream at your age wont hurt you. It wont give you more wrinkles. On a side note - Have you ever noticed that the people that use wrinkle cream are the wrinkliest? I believe that the wrinkle cream your using probably works just as much as those penis enlargement pills (which definatly don't work). The companies that make your wrinkle cream are just out for your money. They know that you'll do anything to not get wrinkles and there's no proof that they arn't helping you so they may as well take your money.
5. oh, my... worried about wrinkles at 17 ? why ? relax, please... no need to worry at your age... eat light, get plent of excercise, early wrikles are related to decreased lung capacity, and stop wasting your money on antiwrinkle products (at your age they are just that, a waste of money)
6. dont use cream when u r so young,it could make thing worse!stay out of the sun,use sun block and use regular moisturisers on your skin.when you hit 23 then it might be ok for u to use anti ageing cream depending on your complection.
7. smoking causes premature wrinkles, so don't smoke unhealthy diet causes wrinkles, so eat healthy, your skin is your largest organ so take care of it, eat a balanced diet not getting enough rest causes them too, the sun also causes wrinkles
8. just use a good moisturizer for now
9. this is the most shocking thing i have ever heard. anti wrinklescream at 17 !!!! for your skin's sake stop using it right away these creams are meant for damaged skin(wrinkledskin) and not for clear and delicate skin instead you can use orange peels on your skin at such a young age u should use only natural techinques drink lots of water
10. what makes the skin old is the sun, i suggest you double your sunblock before going out and make sure to apply it everyday. Too much make can you age, you don't have to use those creams yet, but i would recommend you always follow the basics of skin cleansing: cleanse, tone and moisturize...and exfoliates once a week...this applies to body too to maintain good skin...and eat healthy stuff.
11. using anti wrinkle crams at such a young age is very good. Everyone should be this way so when they see one wrinkle by the time they are 30 or 40 they don't panic. Just make sure to use a very high quality brand instead of Nivea. If Nivea is high quality brand than stick with it. I use one that is compared to lancome and estee lauder but a little less inexpensive. I've been using it for 5 yrs and no sings of aging. You should also do a microdermabrasion system at home kits. When not removing dead skin cells also cause you to get wrinkles. Look it up and you'll see that it is very true. It's less painful than going to a dermatologist or a chemical peel which is highly expensive. Using anti aging creams is good but you get better results when you use a microdermabrasion. NO not just exfoliaton because microdermabrasion uses a special tool to take away dead skin cells. Have fun I always have fun using my products.
12. Im an avon represenitive and I know many friends of mine who are about your age, buy Anew. Anew is a great product out there that helps prevent early wrinkles. Go to http://www.avon.com and you can check out some products there just might be what you are looking for. Dramatic Firming Cream for Face and Throat 053-355 ANEW FORCE EXTRA Triple Lifting Day Cream SPF 15 253-203 There is just a few that I thought would be good for you... I think that if you dont have any wrinkles right now you shouldnt be worried about it though. But happy shopping. Hope you find what you need.
13. No - using anti-wrinkle cream doesn't cause wrinkles. The #1 cause of wrinkles = sun exposure. Therefore, wear SPF 15 or SPF 30 every day on your face every day. The #2 cause of wrinkles - much lower down the list is repeated expressions & #3 - chronological aging/slow down of collagen production. BUT the biggest cause is sun exposure so wear sunscreen!

14. hey hanna... anti-wrinkle cream at 17 is a BAD idea!! u wont even get wrinkles for another few decades so sit pretty n chill!! its not really a prevention mechanism, all anti-ageing creams no matter how good the company is formulated according to older skin where the skin cells are weakenin and degenerating (not for a suple 17 yr old's skin) wat the cream does is, it introduces chemicals (collagen,liposomes) which settles into the skin tissue layers and stiffens the skin,it doesn really cure it or reduce it,it just hides the presence of wrinkles by making the old skin tougher and firmer. using it doesn encourage wrinkles but what it will do is put unneccessary chemical pressure on ur young skin n stress it, it may even cause it to become tough (and not soft) over a period of use ur skin gets too used to it and looses its natural texture... if u still wanna be extra cautious about wrinkles from now itself.. jus drink plenty of water,protect ur skin from the sun and keep ur skin well moisturised at all times...and jus enjoy being young!! :)
15. u can apply vitamine E cream
16. Take the sun prtotection advice, and stick to home remedies - apply plain cold milk to your skin for a few minutes (or yoghurt if you have oily skin and/or pimples) everyday before you bathe. cucumber is also great for skin. Don't put gunk on your face, just some light moisturizer such as Dove/ Nivea/ Body Shop - or make yourself some homemade stuff - you'll find lots of recipes on the internet.
17. For your age, you will tend to get acne or pimples or fleckers instead of wrinkles. Thus its always good to use the right cleanser and toner plus moisturizer. I started using the anti-aging products when I'm 25 years old. However I already started using the beauty pack mask at least once a week (can be done at home on your own). Before 25 years old, I used this bio foam and skin lotion and CE cream (act as a sunblock or day/night cream) After 25 years old, I started using the Marigold anti-aging products. You can check the link below for more details. I have already used this product for over 18 years plus and would not hesitate to recommend to you. This product is only sold exclusively online and not in any department stores. You can always chat with them live.
18. Trust me there is no need to use all these chemicles.You are17during these days reparing system is quite active.Use natural products.Arifical things are part of satisfaction
19. You are doing the right thing to start early. Try using some of the all natural skin products, or make them yourself! Also, figure out the type of skin that you have; is it dry, normal or oily, locate treatments for these conditions. Keep skin makeup usage to a minimium, play up your eyes and your lips. If you work at getting your skin to glow, you'll never need skin makeup anyway. I am 52yrs old and I don't have a single wrinkle. I started working on my skin when I was only 14yrs old. I would wash and moisturize my skin daily and I learned how to be very gentle with my skin, especially around the eye areas. You are fighting gravity. NEVER pull in a downward motion on your skin. Use circular motions, and be very gentle at all times. I see woman rubbing and pulling down on their skin and it shows. Pat your skin dry, NEVER rub! In my opinion the BEST anti-aging remedy in the world is a great attitude! Be positive, love people, love life, smile alot and don't sweat the small stuff. I firmly believe this is why I have better skin today than even some 17yr olds. Also, stay away from bad relationships, negative people, drugs, alcohol, get plenty of sleep, exercise, and enjoy LIFE! Be happy, that's the best way in the world to stay beautiful. Trust me on this!
