Stopping the Signs of Aging Early: Tips and Tricks

Do you know how old I am? Thirty-one! Thirty-one years I have spent on this planet and I am coming to terms with the fact that I am getting older, and my skin is starting to show the signs of age.

Nothing drastic but the years I spent laying in the tanning bed and going to bed with my make-up on are a big contributor to the fine lines that are creeping their way onto my face.

I am not a vain person but let’s be honest here, at thirty-one I still have a lot of living left and I would like to look my best until it all goes downhill somewhere in my sixties. <-wishful thinking

I know that I can’t go at it alone and so when the opportunity to try the new Absolutely Ageless Collection from Aveeno I jumped at the chance. Especially because they collection is a complete skin care routine-perfect for this momma on the go.

Aveeno Absolutely Ageless Collection

Aveeno has been a staple in our home for many years, and I distinctly remember my grandparents using it as well. The new Absolutely Ageless line is made with the Active Naturals Blackberry Complex which combines blackberry leaf extract and dill to help out folks like me with the appearance of lines, wrinkles, and other signs of aging, thankfully.

This five step system has made my skin feel clean, smooth and nourished. I really like that it delivered on its promise and I didn’t need to spend hours to get results. I don’t have hours to spend on a beauty routine but I do like looking like I did.

The Nourishing Cleanser removes 99% of impurities. Its gentle and doesn’t dry out my skin which I really appreciate. My skin needs all the nourishment it can get especially after the extra long winter and in turn extra heating at home.

I follow this with the Daily Moisturizer with SPF 30 which is light and works to plump those fine lines. I also add the Intensive Renewal Serum to my routine here just because I like how it helps renew the damage from the long winter (and tanning beds circa 2000).

At night after I have washed all the grime of the day away I put the Restorative Night Cream on. I have been known to fall asleep with a thick layer of my other cream on my face leaving my pillows greasy and filthy in the mornings. I can happily tell you that that habit has gone out the window. A little goes a long way with this stuff.

As needed, I use the Eye Cream. When Cyrus decides to wake up every few hours due to teething and I am the one who is cuddling him back to bed this is my go to. Love the fact that it takes away the puffiness under my eyes and goes right to work on the crow’s feet.

This line has just come on the market and is available nationwide at most food, drug and mass merchandisers. Retailing anywhere from $24.99 – $29.99 and I have a coupon for you to make it better! Click the link to download and print your $3 OFF here or the French one here.
