WOC and aging!

I'm quickly approaching my 27th birthday and I'm at a total lost about when I should start using anti-aging product, where should I start, what works best on our skin, and do any of you ladies you anti-aging products?

I do not buy into the belief that women need to start using anti-aging products. To me it's another greed-driven ploy by cosmetic and skincare companies to play on our emotions and fears and make us buy products. I think that good skincare practices (washing your face morning and night, using basic products that suit your skin, not sleeping in makeup, proper moisturization, staying out of the sun/using sunscreen, etc.) make all the difference in the world and is what keeps your skin looking fresh. I am way over 40 and am proud to say that I don't have a single wrinkle on my face, and my skin's elasticity is great. Don't believe all that hype about anti-aging products, I say!

thank you that does make a lot of sense! I already take very good care of my skin and I'm going to continue to do so

I'm in total agreement with MAC Hostage. I'm 35 and most people dont believe me when I tell them my age. However in addition to doing the basic skin care tips she mentioned take a look at the other women in your family. Genetics has a lot to do with the way out skin will age.
