I’ve never considered myself to be a vain person, one who is overly obsessed with looking good. I’m actually of the other end of the spectrum, being almost lackadaisical about my looks especially skin care. I’ve never really put high importance on the brands of lotions or creams I used on my skin and luckily, I have been blessed with skin that is neither overly sensitive nor temperamental. I didn’t really have any major problems that couldn’t be solved with regular face washing and a good moisturizer.
So it is particularly exasperating that now that I am at middle age is when I find myself having to be concerned with implementing a skin regiment and considering acne treatment. Yeah, you heard me right, acne. I have never heard of anyone having acne problems in their 40’s! My teenagers are expected to have that problem, not me! But, as luck would have it, I do.
I’ve been talking to other women who look terrific for their age about their skin regimens and I am starting to get scared. They all profess to having been meticulous about their skin care, some of them spending as much as an hourly nightly for their skin regimen. I’ve got some catching up to do.
Tell me, do you have a skin regimen you follow religiously? Mind sharing your secrets with me?
