Skincare For Women Over 50

When I turned 40, I noticed that the skin on my face really started to change. It was very dry, flaky, tight. Not very nice at all. I went to the local pharmacy, where the salesclerk in the beauty department asked me what I used on my face. I told her soap, she nearly fainted! Oh no, she replied, you can't use SOAP on your face! She proceeded to tell me that at my age (what am I? a dinosaur?) I really needed to use a gentle cleanser, a good daytime moisturizer and a good nighttime moisturizer. So, I left the store with about $100 worth of product.

Well, I must agree that she was correct. I immediately noticed a change in my skin. It was not so dry anymore, some of the flakiness was gone, and some elasticity was returning. So I began to think seriously about skincare. I realized that women, or girls, need to start taking care of their skin at an early age, when NO SIGNS of aging are occurring yet.
