Hi all, I'm kind of a skincare noob so this might be pretty dumb. But I'm trying to figure out what could be causing my forehead area (especially my T-zone/between the eyebrow area) to look a little wrinkled but not in the typical sense. My skin, especially my forehead is extremely dry and I'm not sure if that's what's causing it or just age (I'm 29 btw so idk if that is a factor). Would botox help or just some serious hydration?

Some things to help:
- Sunscreen, every day. Mineral if possible. I like Goop Mineral SPF
- To hydrate, try hyalauranic (idk how to spell it) acid. Put it on damp skin, then put moisturizer on after.
- If you’re skin is really dry, make sure you are exfoliating enough.
- I heard GlamGlow has a good hydrating mask

It’s tough to tell what could be causing the wrinkles. Ask a dermatologist. Try some intense hydration. It could also just be sun damage or aging and gravity over time. Hydration helps maintain elasticity of skin. Botox could possibly help, but you would have to get it done every few months.

Thanks so much! These are super helpful! I do make sure to put on sunscreen but will definitely try hyaluronic acid too!
Haven't been exfoliating so will try that too. I do get monthly facials that do exfoliate just don't do any of it outside that

Hi! Are you hydrating?!

Hi there! I will look at the ingredients to see if this is appropriate. In the meantime, do you wear spf during the day! One off suggestion would be to add a, c, e serum to your regimen. A helps with cell turnover, and c helps protect and heal new cells, e helps with absorption of c.

Both. If youre seeing wrinkles it’s probably because your have formed or are forming wrinkles there but when your skin is dry it makes it more visible. Thats why some skincare products say “reduce signs of aging” because they plump up areas (hydration) where there are wrinkles. Like an old deflated balloon- ad a little air(hydration) and the wrinkles are less visible but once it deflates (dehydrates) the wrinkles r in the same spots
