Hi there,
I received a tip from my sister many years ago when I was 18 years old. A beautiful customer came into her store and when my sister found out her age, she was shocked. She asked her what it was she had done to stay looking so young and beautiful. The lady told her that she had been using eye cream and moisturizer on her face and eyes since she was 18 years old. She told my sister that if she started young, the need for those really expensive and sometimes harsh creams and treatments may not be necessary. My wonderful sis came home and told me about it. I ran to the drug store, I should say we ran to the drug store, and picked up eye cream and facial moisturizer. There was no need to spend a lot of money as we still had supple young tight skin. That woman changed our lives as we both look far younger than our true ages.
Now there's a caveat to this splendor which is: you must never use any finger but your ring finger when touching your gentle eye area. Think of your skin as elastic like a rubber band. There is no such thing as a timeless rubber band so every time you rub your eye area, top or bottom, with any other finger.... well you're other fingers are much stronger and can add much needed force to the gentle skin, therefore, stretching it just like that old useless stretched out rubber band you need to throw away. Also, as you apply the eye cream, make sure you simply tap it lightly onto the delicate skin. Now, when you apply the facial moisturizer, make sure you so not place too much force onto your facial skin and you gently stroke upwards, never downwards. This is coming from an engineering student who knows what force and magnitude is and what it is capable of. OK, truth be told, I'm still learning about Statics, but still, force is force, silly! Also, do not neglect your neck area as well, since that skin too may stretch out into the wrinkly elephant skin we are all aware of. Now, boys, you might want to take this advice as well. You don't have to tell your guy friends about it, but as the years go by and you maintain your youthful appearance, they will ask. Hopefully, you can pass on the information so they too may take advantage of the youthful secrets that have long been kept in the dark.
This is coming from someone whom is constantly mistaken for a girl in her early 20's. Please take my advise. In 20 years, you will thank me for it. Oh, and another thing which is great. If you have dry or ashy skin, try applying baby oil to your body right out of the shower when your skin is still damp. It will clear that right up. Now, don;t go crazy with the stuff though. It can bleed onto your wonderful wardrobe so use it sparingly. One bottle can last a very, very long time. I use about a quarter size worth. If baby oil is just plain too greasy for you, try Johnson's baby oil lotion. The stuff smells great and it's less greasy. Baby oil is also great right after you shave your legs, ladies, and some guys too, if that's your thing-a-doodle! Gotta get some shut-eye.
Ciao for now!
