Early 50s

I'm 53 and I feel like I suddenly look old. I'd been using under eye cream since my 20s but recently I've got wrinkles under my eyes and my smile lines are worse.

I don't want to have Botox or fillers. Have any of you found any good creams or a particular type of facial that might help?

Use tretinoin. It's a miracle and cheaper than all the other snakeoil in a jar. I have recommended it so many times on here that I will be accused of working for Dermatica. I don't!. I get my tret from overseas actually.

I am 51, won't have Botox and completely wrinkle free. I do have jowls though.

Where can I buy Tretinoin please? I’d also be interested

You can buy it on Dermatica. Numerous threads on it if you do a search. But I get it from family overseas very cheap- less than 30 p a tube- so not sure about the Dermatica process. Perhaps someone will be along to clarify.

The key is to start very slowly,and your skin will get worse before it gets better. I started in lockdown.

Hi I use Dermatica , I have a code that gives you your first month for £2.90 and then 25% off your 2 month . It will give me £5 off mine.
you get it went monthly but can easily use it for 6 weeks or more and can set how often you want it delivered.
