What's your skincare challenge?
Kat - July 26, 2010 - 20:22
Tell us: what is your skincare challenge, and do you have a plan? What have you done to get better skin?
Me? It's all about sleep. Beauty sleep isn't a myth! So my goal - and big challenge - is to get to bed earlier. I'm trying!

Skin care challenge
Even though I am in my 40's, my skin breaks out. I have to wash my face in the morning and at night or the breakouts increase. I try to get 8 hours of sleep and I do drink lots of water. I also use a pimple cream when I notice breakouts on the rise - something with benzole peroxide seems to really help.
Plan of Attack!
My biggest skin care challenge is the sun damage I have on my face and hands. My plan so far, is during my morning show a light face scrub and an organic face cream in the morning with SPF 20, at night I wash my face before bed with warm water. Is there any other suggestions anyone can make?
Age Spots on Face
I am 55, menopausal and have just noticed that I have age spots on my face. I use all the Vichy products for menopausal skin, but I am wondering what I can do to minimize the age spots. Please let me know as soon as possible. Could you please send your reply to my email address?
Thanks so much,
D.
Hi D: Vichy has a wide range
Hi D:
Vichy has a wide range of products for your skin, no matter what your age. I did a quick search and found the product Neovadiol SPF 15 (http://www.vichyusa.com/_us/_en/landing/neovadiol_learn.aspx), which reduces age spots. It's available in Canada.
Also, if you haven't already, check out some great tips about aging skin the Vichy Skin Care Tips page (http://www.besthealthmag.ca/look-great/skin-care-tips/take-action-against-aging) on our Best Health Challenge website.

skincare challenge
My skincare challenge is very oily skin, which usually lead to breakouts. I am getting pimples and wrinkles at the same time. Yikes!
5 minutes everyday
My goal each day it to add mosturizer to my daily skin care routine, as soon as I hop out of the shower, I apply a thin coat of skin cream, just to keep my skin hydrated. I also am trying to drink extra water everyday to battle the heat of the summer!
Skincare Challenge
I never go out without my sunblock...but that wasn't always the case growing up. This would probably explain my sun spots (lovely words to cover up the real ones: age spots!!!!). I cleanse my face morning and night and moisturize, moisturize, moisturize. I never go to bed with makeup on. I'm now 42 and age is starting to show. What do I do to the age spots on my face? They can't go away right?
Where do I begin?
Humm... Skin care challenge - where do I begin? I do eat right and exercise fairly regularly but my biggest problem is that I'm so confused over products. Can I mix different name brand/pharmaceutical products or do I need to stick with a specific product line? Wrinkles, age spots, occasional breakouts? Which problem do I tackle first? Some days I feel that if I just wash my face then it's been a good skin care day.
