You all are so young and lovely...any secrets from your moms, your granny's or yourselves as to taking care of the skin, especially the face going into the 50's?

I watched Oprah, once, and the lovely older ladies, said, moisureize, moistureize, moistureize....

Sun is hard for me, cause of my location, and I love the sun, but I know it is paramount!

Do You Think This Psychic Is Cute?

I started to get into juicing again, three years ago, and then two years ago, but haven't kept it up. I've had stomach issues, so hardly anything stays with me (except the weight in the middle, oddly).

Tulsi Tea is apparently good for reversing sun damage, but I have no proof of that myself. I was supposed to start drinking it two years ago, because it helps with anxiety issues, as well, but I forgot about it, and well... wish I hadn't. I really could have used the relaxation, and I might not be hating the aging effects on my skin that have hit, and may not have, had I not been so upset, so often.

everything Ami said plus sunscreen every day of the year, even on cloudy/rainy days

.. i used to put a sour yogurt mask to make my skin paler, i dont think it does that for say but it sure makes me feel radiant at least for the next couple of days..

I have noticed a big difference in my family my aunt who has beautiful skin.
Does the following:
• Avoid the sun (she has very fair skin)
• For dessert natural fruits or natural gelatin with fruits (gelatin contains natural producing collagen)
• Drinks only occasionally
• Once in a while drinks yerba mate or green tea
• She does isometric exercises (like the bar method or lotte burke)
• Lots of water with natural lemon or mint
• Brown rice over pasta
• Uses rose hip oil
• Takes cod liver oil
• Natural skin care recipes with natural Vitamin E
She keeps a healthy regime and it has paid off, when I was a kid I used to think it was weird but now when I look at her and my Mom I can tell there is a big difference.

Eat fresh vegetables, fruits, juices, lean meat and fish; eat foods that contain the essential amino acids every day; cut back on salt and sugars.
Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated;
Moisturize - I use vitamin e cream around my eyes; apply olive oil lightly straight from the bottle is really good
Sleep - our bodies regenerate during sleep, and get to bed early at least twice a week
Reduce stress - it's not easy these days at all; avoid stressful situations and relationships - it shows on your skin
Exercise - walking at least 30 minutes each day - helps with circulation and overall well-being.
