  1. I loved La Mer!!! I was a total junkie of it in my 20’s and late 30’s, when I had to stop (vegan). But I had one dewy face from La Mer ❤

  2. Nivea cream!I have used it for 40-50 years 36 as a flight attendant and everytime I try something I am disappointed…It works as a day and night cream…must be the cream Nivea in the jar…works and can be purchased in any grocery or drug store!

  3. I use moisturizers with as little actives as possible so I can add/subtract serums with actives and keep track on how my skin is doing. So neutral basic so I know that part will not irritate my skin and then peptides, retinal and vitamin c with increased strength over long time.

  4. Best anti aging I know that works with me Australian Cancer Foundation SPF 50, drinking plenty of water, plenty of sleep and eat fresh foods and no sugary drinks.. It works with me

  5. I’m so glad I’ve used sunscreen and moisturizer and retinol forever so I’m 51 and don’t need to waste my money on a 200$ skin cream.
