I diligently follow my simple skincare routine everyday: Vit C, SPF, retinol, all the things. I’m 27F and my skin does look great but I’m genuinely curious does anyone have testimonials of how this has helped their skin as they age?

Every time I talk to my derm it sounds like SPF and skincare is such a new concept. My mom is always going on about how she wishes she used SPF when younger, etc. I’m just curious if anyone has seen results with this long term.

I stopped using foundation when I was 17 , my derm told me it ages the skin , he said to use cc cream or Tinted moisturizer, the foundation application stretches the skin and causes wrinkles , and with a cc cream there’s more give , I also skin cycle , 30f , I get carded for movies / alcohol

SPF for preventing aging is not a new concept. There’s a ton of literature but here is one paper.

I’m more surprised by your derm!

Vitamin C / Spf will help with aging related to sun and free radicals (pollution). SPF is generally a new concept since our parents generation. Vitamin C can help brighten skin and fade dark spots which is why they’re bffs. I wore SPF religiously as a teenager and now thankfully have zero sun/dark spots and my skin has less lines around my eyes then my friends my age.
Retinol will increase the skin cell turn over, unclog pores and can increase collagen production, which drastically slows as you age.
If you protect your skin now you will have less damage/lines later in life. Also less chance for skin cancer if you protect you skin. Sun damage can take years to show in our skin, burns that we had as children may not present until our late 20s or 30s.
