So, lets start with the basics shall we? okay lets start with how I keep my skin from aging. Ever since I was a little girl I remember my grandma always telling me "not to pull on my face".. and I remember thinking she was insane and why is it a big deal to rub my eyes or make funny faces with my mouth. Fast forward 10 years, and I am grateful for her advice! With her voice replaying in my head I managed to infact NEVER pull on my eyes or face! even when I wash my face or put on much needed moisterizers I do it very delicately. You are probably reading this thinking Im crazy but trust me I thought the same thing! But this piece of advice had became the foundation to everything else skin care wise. I will admit I do occasionally get botox but even my nurse tells me I do not need it like I think I do. Also with my many hours/days/years (lol!) of research I have learned that there is a few things important to your skin. I have learned that if you are going to take or use anything collagen that you must ingest it because the skin cannot absorb it on the surface. BUT! what the skin CAN absorb and desperately needs is hyaluronic acid! This item has also become a staple of mine. And did you know that hyaluronic acid is the main ingredient in lip fillers like juvederm? I dont go out and buy fancy expensive creams..no all you need to do is pay attention to the ingredients on the packaging. My grandma always used POMADA DE LA COMPADA..and i find that it is a little too thick for me but if you see her you will think shes 10 years younger than she is! I find most times the "cheap" brands are just as effective if not more. Big name brands are charging more for their name, not because their product is better. So to conclude this horrendously long explanation, my go to moisturizer is from E.L.F.!! E.L.F. actually has amazing products and usually products that are straight to the point ingredient wise. Alright that is where I will leave it for today. Next up?
