Anti-Aging Skincare Routine

I’m sure everyone saw the J-Lo and Shakira Super Bowl Halftime show. And I’m sure everyone is wondering how J-Lo (50) and Shakira (43) are actually aging in reverse like some Benjamin Button sh*t. But I am here to help answer some of your questions… The Anti-Aging Skincare Routine. 

Yes, J-Lo and Shakira probably have a ton of money that they spend on botox and fillers and personal trainers, and lasers, and super expensive skincare products, but they’re also super rich celebrities. Wouldn’t that be nice?? However, just because you’re not a super rich celebrity, doesn’t mean that you can’t age in reverse also. If you use the right products, target the right areas, and follow an anti-aging skincare routine religiously, you too can pause or at least slow down the (visible) aging process. 

Sorry, but I can’t do anything about your cracking knees and your bad back. 

So let’s talk about skincare now and how to target fine lines and wrinkles. 

First of all, you need to be drinking as much water as you possibly can. Hydration keeps your skin plump and firm. Think of beef jerky, it’s dehydrated meat so that’s why it’s all shriveled and wrinkled. You need to be drinking a lot of water and staying super hydrated so that your face and all over skin stays plump. Always use products that help to hydrate and never use products with alcohol in it because that will dry out your skin like jerky. 

Second, you need to be using the right skincare products. Please do me a favor and don’t settle for the cheap sh*t at the drugstore. Go to Ulta, Sephora, or Nordstrom and invest in the “expensive” stuff. Now, I’m not saying to buy a $500 bottle of moisturizer because that’s insane, but the good products are usually between $40 and $200. The drugstore products are cheap because they are watered down and you will be spending money on a product that essentially doesn’t work and you will get discouraged and give up. 

Also, be sure that you give (the good) skincare products at least 6 weeks to see results. If you don’t see results after using a product for two days in a row, you need to be patient grasshopper. In my experience, it takes about 6 weeks for a skincare product to show noticeable results. 

AVOID WIPING YOUR FACE! When you wipe your face with a towel or a makeup remover wipe, you are literally tugging at the skin and moving it in all different directions and you are stretching it out and giving yourself wrinkles. I’m not trying to scare you or make you feel guilty, but you need to know this and know how important it is to not wipe your face. 

I use Elemis Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm to remove my makeup because it is super gentle and melts all of the makeup off without having to use those horrible makeup remover wipes that give you wrinkles. And it comes with a soft baby towel so it’s extra gentle on your skin when PATTING or DABBING the cleansing balm off. Remember: dab or pat your face dry, never wipe.

And when you have some down time or just want to pamper yourself, use the Collagen Eye Pads and the Chin-Up Applicator Wrap while you’re taking a bubble bath or sitting on the couch sipping wine and watching the Bachelor! These products don’t need to be used daily but should be used at least once a week. 

If you’re just getting started with an Anti-Aging Skincare Routine and you have no idea where to start and don’t want to spend $500+ on a skincare routine all at once, below is an Amazon-exclusive anti-aging skincare routine for ONLY $140!! You can literally get an entire anti-aging skincare routine from Amazon for $140. I’ve done a lot of research on these products below and looked at reviews and before and after pictures so these products are legit. I’ve been working on perfecting my skincare routine for over two years now so even though I have well over $500 worth of products, I definitely did NOT buy all of these products at once.

Amazon-Exclusive Anti-Aging Skincare Routine for $140:

1. InstaNatural Vitamin C Facial Cleanser
2. Revive Microdermabrasion Facial Exfoliating Scrub
3. BaeBody Eye Gel
4. Valjean Labs Facial Serum Combo Pack (Hydrate, Glow, & Firm)
5. M3 Naturals Professional Facial Vitamin C Serum with Collagen, Stem Cell, and WrinkleFix
6. LilyAna Naturals Retinol Cream
7. LilyAna Naturals Anti-Aging Face Cream

If you are just getting started, the Amazon-exclusive skincare routine would be a great starting point if you aren’t sure what you like and dislike yet or if you are buying a skincare routine in bulk. I always like to buy an entire skincare routine at once and then slowly add in new products after I do more research and I can afford the more expensive stuff if I’m just buying one product at a time. Does that make sense?
