Anti-Aging Tips and Products

[rae]

Yes, tretinoin is available over the counter and we have a few brands available here. Retin A, retacnyl, stieva a,  and those available from derm clinics. We have a separate thread on tretinoin if you wish to know more

Any organic anti aging products? I'm afraid of the chemicals.

^ Marami sis, sa Healthy Options. Brands like Avalon Organics, Derma-E, Andalou Naturals etc. carry their respective anti-aging lines. Sa local brands naman, Venus & Mars, Human Heart Nature, Bare Naturals have their own all-natural anti-aging skincare products.

Hi! I'm already 33 yo and I'm just using Ponds Age Miracle since ito lang hiyang sa face ko. I got small bumps when I tried to use OTE before. Recently, may napanood akong video from a makeup artist in UK giving some advice about anti-ageing creams. Sabi nya its just a waste of money using those creams coz those are not actually anti-ageing, they are just moisturizers, though moisturizers are good but not really an anti-ageing. Nirecommend nya yung Retin A,its the most effective daw. Retin A at night and Sunblock in the morning with SPF 30. Im not familiar with Retin A pero nabasa ko Tretinoin is also a Retin A? Question: Can I buy Retin A over the counter? Is there any particular brand available here in the Philippines? Thanks po sa sasagot...

Definitely superior talaga ang tret when it comes to anti-aging. But I would be more inclined to believe a dermatologist's statement on the matter, kesa makeup artist. Given that most creams/potions are hyped up moisturizers, meron din naman other products with ground-breaking ingredients that can prove beneficial to those who can't tolerate tret or just react better to other actives in general.

sis,im using medicated astringent and peeling and bleaching cream.ok lang ba gumamit din me retinoic acid?nag-purge n me using these local obagi, will i purge again pag gumamit me ng retinoic acid?

[WickedWitchOfTheWest]

^depende sa ingredients ng peeling and bleaching cream, and how resilient your skin is. I'm not familiar with local obagi, but if there's something to purge, then you will purge.

[Doink!]

How long is the purging phase for tretinoin?

^ Based on the feedback from the tretinoin thread, you can't really tell, coz it varies per person. I suggest you read back through all the experiences of fellow GTers who posted there

for my eyes i use creme d lamer for crow eyes. wicked talaga ang crow eyes haaaay.
so far so good i think i owe it all to the price haha. good thing gift lang sakin.

for me forehead naman i have hints of wrinkles i use vincy anti wrinkle cream. pero hindi siya effective huhu. bute small jar binili ko.

im only 25 pero i want to prevent fine lines on my face. more than whitening or smoothening, fine lines talaga ang pinaka worst sign of aging haaaay.

@ross24 sis ok din ba yung olay regenerist eye cream? Haven't try pa kasi, I used OTE eye cream hindi ko naubos, puffed eye ako as in hapon na mukha pa rin akong bagong gising... With revitalift yung fine lines ko hindi dry kaya hindi sya visible, though meron na talaga hehe!

Hi sis, one of my hg's si olay rege  @nerist eye. Nagttry ako ng iba para hindi din ako maimmune sa kanya pero hindi ako nasasatisfy kaya napapagastos lang tuloy hehe. Tapos bumabalik ako sa regenerist. Hindi ako nagkaron ng dark undereyes sa regenerist pero pag nagttry ako ng ibaa

Tried kiehls eye reducing brightening sample and so far satisfied ako sa kanya pati sa wrinkles kaso medyo pricey and same size lang yata sila ni regenerist.

[jenger109]

I love olay regenerist.. Been using it for 2 yrs now..

[powerpacfan]

sis try creme d la mer eye cream

world acclaimed yan!

Aww talaga...what do you suggest best anti-aging cream for late 20s? I can see visible lines now sa eyes. Crows feet! Tsk

[bellanjelah]

mga sissies anyone who has tried Misojium?

[absolutecarla]

I get my anti-aging products from Skinactives.com and Paula's Choice. The products aren't that pricey, they don't spend tons on advertising and the ingredients are backed by science. I learned to read ingredient labels from those sites and not get carried into the hype of buying overpriced products that don't work or are actually just mediocre.

Try GSE tablets antiaging and gives skin a glow too

I don't really spend much on anti aging products, okay na ako sa drugstore brand like olay and Nivea. Kasi totoo naman na moisturizers lang naman din ang mga yan. I've tried loccitane, lancome at estee lauder wala naman pagbabago pareho lang ng effect sa akin ng olay. Hindi naman mawawala ang mga wrinkles at fine lines. Kaya olay regenerist na lang ako mura pa.

[Girltalker2]

^ I prefer Asian brands. Though di ko alam talaga kung may effect, ang importante sakin is to maintain the smooth skin (without bumps).  I use Shisheido (revital), SKII and Sulwahsoo for skin care. Tingin ko naman may anti-aging ingredients din sila. Now that I'm 40, kelangan ko bilhin yung pang 40s na na line nila and so far, ok naman. 

for SKII naman, promise, wala naman akong nakikita na improvement. Pero pag hindi ko naman gamit, hinahanap hanap ko. I just need their Essence and Toner from time to time. Hinahalinhinan ko silang 3.

try nyo ang AVON AF33 pro line corrector, i was skeptical to use this product  first, pero nung ginamit ko na hiyang talaga sa akin, its just short of a miracle, mga 2 days makita mo agad resulta. i will definitely keep using AF33 .  in-acknowledge ng ALLURE magazine with their 2012 Breakthrough Award.
