I’ve often been told I look younger than my 63 years. I give
a lot of credit to genetics, but I also have spent time trying to find the
right products for my skin.
There are two important things I suggest to help keep your
skin in the best shape possible. The first is to stay out of the sun as much as
possible. Absolutely use sunscreen anytime you do. The other is that you don’t
have to get stuck on one brand. It’s the products that matter. I use an
assortment of brands.
I have a few splurges in my routine I think are worth a
little extra money, but the majority are inexpensive. Here are the things I use
for skin care on my face and makeup. While I try to follow this regimen most
days, I’m not that rigid.

CorneaCare Wipes
I have dry eye disease and these are a great way to start my
day. I wipe my eyes and then use it to freshen up my face.

Clinique All About Eyes De-puffing
My eyes are very sensitive and I had to stop using eye

frequently to help with puffiness, wrinkles, and dark circles.

Vaseline Petroleum Original
Sometimes you need to go back to the basics. Vaseline is
