Unfortunately, for women, society shuns aging. The origins of this viewpoint is almost worse than the body dysmorphia it causes… That being said, out of the darkness comes light, and makeup and skincare has garnered a beautiful community of women caring for themselves and sharing how to do so with other women. We've evolved from trying to hold onto youth like Madonna and keep our faces looking like teenagers. We are now embracing the fine lines and dark spots more and more, however, we still like to be in control of ourselves, so we turn to the beauty market. And that's not a bad thing! It's fun to put on makeup and taking care of your largest organ, your skin, makes you feel both physically and mentally better.
On the subreddit r/AskWomen, Reddit users are sharing their go-to skin care routines and products. The number one advice being given? Use sunscreen! The sun is what ages us the most. But some people don't like that heavy feeling of sunscreen—well, check out some suggestions for light sunscreens from these Redditors! Also, some people swear by vitamin C products, Retinol, and things like making sure you wash your face before bed, only exfoliate once a week, etc. Check it all out below and find out what might work best for you!
