    I dont think you can start too young to be honest, although i`d say early 20`s is a good time to start!

    Never is a good time - there's no such thing as anti-ageing. We all age, it's a natural god given process.

    You can however, slow down the sign of ageing from your teens onwards.

    Yes, but "anti-aging" is a quick simple way that everybody understands to type out the gest of it.

    Maybe if you started running faster and faster until you were faster than light, and thus going bacwards in time, you'd go younger? :p

    I've moisturised every night since I was 13. When I turn 21 I intend to start using anti aging creams at night instead.

    Good idea. I've been using moisturizer every day for as long as I can remember too, my skin gets tight and itchy if I don't, but its just the plain olay stuff, spf added to it being its most exotic thing :p Olay do a grand range of anti aging moisturizers, right? My bottle is almost done, I'll check into that.

    Thanks hun :thumb:

    fuck, I am in my 20s and I wish I had a pro-aging stuff, I look like a 17 year old swedish.

    I wish I was a girl, with all those 'problems'.

    I've heard that If you use moisturiser/anti ageing creams from a young age, that it makes your skin more saggy and more wrinkly.

    So therefore I am going to grow old gracefully, Not that such a thing exists anymore :chin:

    Exercise has the best effect on anti-aging, so do some of that regularly!

    olays regenerist range is really good actually since you already like that range. Its a lot more pricey than the normal stuff though obviously.

    Maybe I could get the geneirc version :p My mom and her mom have great skin but I also see them with shelves of creams and moisturizers so I dont know if it good genes or half a bank account in products. Thanks for the tip, SCC :D

    I also keep seeing this infomercial for the most delicious shower scrubbers and stuff, and oneo f the heads it comes with is a microdermabrasion one. I want it so bad. (Oh god, I'm wanting infomercial stuff :\ but it has a sponge that spins and a massager too and if you buy now you get the pummace stone for your feet attachment oooooooo)

    On a serious not: "Anti-aging" stuff before you even hit 20 (not to mention 30)? Dear God! I won't be surprised at all if this stuff is what eventually causes all the wrinkes.
