Aging skin

by Dawn
(Green Bay, WI, USA)

I am over 50 and the skin around my eyes is starting to show its age. The only cleanser I use is olive oil with sea salt. I rarely wear make-up (a little mascara is usually it). I do use a night cream. What can I do to slow down the aging of my skin? I never had any lines until this last year and I really don't want to look my age :)

Hi Dawn,

Take a look at this page Natural anti aging skin care on this site, you'll find good recipes for aging skin. In addition, face exercise seems to be very helpful.

Hope this helps,

Hi Faye,

Thanks for mentioning sun protection. I've recommended this Free Suncare Calculator to calculate safe tanning time.

Thanks for your tip,

aging skin...

Hi Dawn,
I am a beauty therapist so will give you some advice going by my experience!
Its good to avoid the sun not that we have a great deal of it in uk, if you travel to hot destinations be very careful as the sun rays are the main cause of skin aging.
Also to stop the skin around your eyes flagging use a very thick moisture lotion , with rose oil and make sure it does not contain AHA which is an acid and should be avoided in daylight and there are a lot of creams out there which contain this ingredient.
Hope this helps.

I've used a sugar scrub with sugar packets in the shower.I collect them for free every time I eat out and especially when traveling.I put them collected in a ziploc and use them 2 at a time.See the years rub off.
