Re: Nice Skin ? what does it mean, girls ?

I never thought I would have (occasional) skin blemishes together with (some) wrinkles (laughter lines, actually). That does seem unfair

Re: Nice Skin ? what does it mean, girls ?

My skin has never felt better on my face,I put it down to the chemo...I dont have wrinkles but then at 51 I wouldnt think I would have lol
The skin on other parts of my body (arms/legs) is so dry could use buckets of moisturiser on them

Re: Nice Skin ? what does it mean, girls ?

I have cleansed my skin religiously every night with Ponds Cleansing Cream since I was 15. I haven't washed my face with soap and water since then! I see looking after your skin from a young age as taking out an insurance!
I wouldn't spend rediculous money on expensive moisturisers. I think Nivea and Olay moisturisers and night creams are the best.

Re: Nice Skin ? what does it mean, girls ?

I guess both my parents had good skin, but neither was a grease pot in their youth ! lol
Mum used soap and water on her face and I've not really bothered much with cleansing creams, although I do now use Lacura moisturiser before slapping on make-up because my skin can be a bit dry at times

I tried Olay once but it made me feel itchy and a few years ago I discovered that I'm allergic to paraffin, which is present in many cosmetics
Lacura is paraffin free AND inexpensive

Odd that my hair remains greasy ... hmmmmm

Re: Nice Skin ? what does it mean, girls ?

I use Dermalogica antioxidant hydramist which I spray on over my make up. Night and morning I use a smoothing cream.
The result is my skin is as good as it was when I was in my twenties.

How lovely you must be

I assume you have any facial hair plucked out too

Re: Nice Skin ? what does it mean, girls ?

No, I just have four I pluck out at times on my chin. Otherwise I feel happy with my looks being 70 years of age, nobody stays young forever.
Is that your picture, how old are you if I may ask?

Re: Nice Skin ? what does it mean, girls ?
