Just wondering if any of the "mature" sleevers (over 50) have any good suggestions for an effective facial moisturizer. After 2 1/2 months and 52 lbs., I'm starting to notice a lot more wrinkles! If there's a product out that that has helped anyone, I'd be happy to hear about it!

I think that's a matter of genetics. I had decent skin going into this and so far so good. In fact I'd say my skin looks even better. My routine is simple. I use my clarisonic mia 1x a day with DDF and moisturize with baby oil gel. I then wipe off the excess. In the evenings I wash with YES makeup remover cloths, wash with warm Water and once again moisturize with baby oil gel. I wear full face makeup (CoverFX foundation, powder, etc....) 3 - 4 days a week. On gym days I give my skin a break.

For the record, I'm 51 and so far I've lost over 55lbs

Hi Lolly123,

I am 54 and will be starting my 2 week preop diet on wednesday this week. I am concerned about the new "lines" I'm sure will show up. Currently, my skin looks pretty good because I think the fat is plumping out the lines..LOL! I know there is no miracle cream just good skin care. I must say, I am a huge fan of the clairsonic mia! Once I started using it regularly I noticed a definite change in the overall appearance of my skin. Regular cleansing and moisturizing are the best tips I can offer (my opinion only!! :). Have a great day!

I'm 69 and have lost 73 pounds, with 12 more to goal.

I am a big fan of Dr. Dennis Gross daily face peel (Steps 1 and 2). I do it about 3 times a week.

Otherwise, I use Clarins skin care products. Like them, too.

I swear by Rodan and Fields Reverse Line... I'm 53 and think I look pretty young for my age... Their cleanser and moisturizer (step 1 and 4) are Amazing! To be honest, the products are a little more expensive, but I think I'm worth it! :)
