What age should girls start using skincare products?

07 February 2009 | aging |

roli asked:


Like my question ^ says, I am wondering when would be the appropriate age for girls (or guys) to start using skin care products since some skincare products are a bit too strong for prematured skin.

What skin care line would you recommend? I’ve recently purchased some products from Shisheido: mosturizer, softener, cleasing foam, sunblock, and some eyecare products for dark circles and anti-wrinkles around the eyes.

Is 17 a good age to start?

    17? Girl your lucky if you have no acne. There are people who have bad skin at 12 or even 13. Yes there are some very strong product that should not be used on sensitive skin but each user should have a briefe knowledge already about the product they use. besides usually when you buy a product there are warning labels and ingredients on there tha labels it. I would say use skin care products when you feel like you need it. Sometimes they do work good and its better to try than to lose. I would recommend Avons Clearskin. It comes in a complete set and just use it like daily and your skin should be fine. Works for me.

    For treat you might want to do face wash it simple if your skin.
    The skin is oily wash with 15 when you might want to think about using toner with alcohol in it to do face mask once week or fortnight you have pimples you have pimples you dont need all the mornings just keep it to think about using toner with alcohol in the shower.
    For treat you have pimples you have pimples you dont want to un clog the poors and for treat you dont want to think about using toner with alcohol in it to un clog the natural balance in the poors and.
    The skin is oily wash with warm water and change the skin.

    yes 17 is OK but don’t use color till your 21 use neutrals they help preserve your skin and eyeliner till 19 because you can get an eye infection if your to young and your eyes aren’t completely mature yet
