Hi everyone! I’ve been pondering the ideal age to start using anti-aging cream. As a 22-year-old with oily and acne-prone skin, I find the variety of products available quite overwhelming. Some sources suggest starting in your early twenties, while others recommend waiting until you notice signs of aging. It can be quite confusing!
I’ve read that prevention is essential since our skin’s elasticity changes over time. However, I’m currently dealing with hormonal breakouts and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, so I’m cautious about adding too many new products to my routine. Right now, I use salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide to manage my acne, but I’m unsure where anti-aging fits into all of this.
I would love to hear your thoughts! Have any of you started using anti-aging products at a young age? How did you balance it with other skincare issues? Let’s share our experiences and help each other out!
