Just wondered if anyone could give me a bit of advice? My skin is okish but at 43 I'm starting to feel I can't wing it much longer without a proper skincare routine.
I have normal skin. Hope someone can help.

It depends what your main concerns are.
is there something that bothers you now - you do say you have normal skin, so maybe not, or are you worried about future ageing.
Take a look at Caroline Hiron's blog.
She has fact sheets you can look at.
You don't need to spend a lot - take a look at Avene, LRP, Vichy and so on.
Also L'Oreal - lots of funding, same research as Lancome.

Or, if you're happy, them maybe what you're doing now is right for you.
I know I would never describe my skin as normal, so I am a bit envious.
Some people are lucky and don't need much.

Thanks for that coffee, I'll take a look at that blog. I meant that my skin isn't particulary oily or particularly dry either...just normal.

If its anti ageing you want retin a cream and a good sunscreen go a long way to preventing wrinkles.

I get my retin a off amazon and I'm very happy with it.
