Anti-Aging Tips: What’s Worked For Me

Quite a few people sent me messages asking me to share any diet or skincare secrets I might have to keep my skin young-looking. Not saying I’ve succeeded or anything, and it’s all an educated guess, because the state our skin is a combination of so many factors (diet, habits, environment, genes) and we can’t go back in time to verify which made the most impact.

But here’s MY humble opinion on what I credit for making a difference.

Overall Philosophy

I believe the most economical and effective way to keep your skin youthful is starting to protect it while you’re young, while there is still all that beautiful texture and tight collagen matrix to preserve. ”Anti-aging” products and procedures can mask the appearance of lines, dryness and sagging temporarily, or slow the aging process quite significantly, but nothing on the market right now can noticeably turn back the clock in your DNA, no MATTER what the marketing copy claims.

"Announcement: Mario Badescu Set for the 300,000 Follower Contest goes to…
Rachel D!"

From her entry: “ I would like to win this skincare set because I’ve already reached my 25 year mark and have only recently realized that flaunting great makeup is not enough to reveal true beauty, but it’s much more important to have a clean, healthy and flawless canvas beneath it all, especially since I ain’t getting any younger and would love to treat my skin more like an investment for my more “womanly” years to come. I would love to be able to be confident even without the fancy foundations and concealing products that I can’t seem to leave the house without anymore. I’ve heard that Mario Badescu products really work wonders and it’s been on my wishlist for a couple years now, but it’s so expensive where I’m at that I just stick to a very basic skincare regimen with drugstore products that don’t really clear up my acne. I would love to be able to use these Mario Badescu products and have beautiful and radiant skin to have more confidence in myself just as I am.”

For those of you who didn’t win, don’t be disappointed!

There’s still the makeup segment of the 300,000 follower giveaway coming right up!

(I’m finalizing details with the company right now to sort out what goes into it, and I’m trying to get not 1, but a few different sets so we can have multiple winners!) ;P
