Do you use face cream/night cream??

So Im 27 years old, I wash my face but thats about it...  I have crows feet (like everyone I guess).  Im a big smiler so I guess thats where the are from...Anywho, I found out a few women my age are using face creams/night creams, etc.  

I dont think I need this stuff now but maybe as a preventative?? I tend to break out if I use anything 'new' or without some sort of "fighter" in it...and my skin gets pretty oily also, so everything I use (makeup, etc) is a no oil product.....

Soooo, do you? does it DO anything? Even just a moisturizer? Wrinkle fighter?  WDYD??

    I have been using it for years.  My grandpa developed his own line of skin care products and he doesn't have a wrinkle on his face.  It's ALL about preventing, not trying to undo the damage.  You should definitely start using something, ESPECIALLY a moisturizer.  That's the most important thing.  It's really dry here so I put it on before my makeup and before I go to bed.

    Also, the area around the eyes is usually the first thing to go.  It's where we look old first.  So if you use a makeup remover make sure it is alcohol free, otherwise it will dry your skin out right there.  I use a moisturizer with SPF 30 in it too, because sun damage is another huge ager.  Can you tell I don't wanna look old!?!?  LOL  I am going to be 28 in a couple weeks and I act like I am 40. ; )

    Well, when I can get my grandpas stuff I use that, but I don't see him often enough, and it's way too expensive to buy online.  I really like Olay products. The Olay Regenerist line is my fave.

    I use a moisturizer every morning.  I try to use it nightly as well but sometimes I forget. Oops.

    Yes, you should still use something.  There are lighter products for oilier skin.  Clinique has a nice eye cream too and as the skin around the eyes is thinner and more delicate, I'd probably use a heavier eye cream there.  It helps the wrinkles quite a bit by plumping up the skin with moisture.  For daytime, I have a combo moisturizer/SPF 30 so that helps prevent skin damage.  I use a heavy night-time moisturizer now but I'm 10 years older!  But even at 27, I used a nighttime moisturizer.  The thing you need to think about at your age isn't as much treatment as prevention.

    Yup, I use a skincare line (Mary Kay) - LOVE it! My skin looks really good. So good that I don't have to wear makeup and it still looks fine.

    Yes. I use moisturizer with sunscreen daily. At night I also use eye cream. Definitely start using something.
