Is there any counterattack to anti-aging skin care?

It's true, but I have to stop talking here - the "counterattack" here is not the hair-changing myth spread online about a 50-year-old turning into a 20-year-old instantly. It's the real difference that you and your best friend are the same age, they both stayed up all night, took care of the baby and rushed through the plan, and took pictures with the original camera. Your skin condition looks five or six years younger than hers.

Of course, many people think this is nonsense. When I accompanied my sister to see Thermage two years ago, the dermatologist who attended the consultation said very directly. The upper limit of anti-aging of skin care products is inherently low. Problems such as collagen loss in the dermis, dynamic lines turning into static lines, and face collapse caused by loose ligaments cannot be penetrated by smearing on them. No matter how much money you spend to buy lady essence, it is not as intuitive as the improvement of a single project. There is actually nothing wrong with this. I have seen many people save two months’ salary to buy a bottle of anti-aging essence that costs tens of thousands. They stay up until three o’clock every day without applying sunscreen. After using half a bottle, it is of no use. Then they turn around and call anti-aging skin care an IQ tax.

But I found it to be a living example when I was little. When she was 28 years old, she was still a typical late night partyer + loved to laugh + never used sun protection. Her apples were obviously slumped, her tear troughs were so deep that she had to put on two layers of concealer before she dared to go out, and the lines at the corners of her eyes were so deep that she could crush ice when she smiled. Later, I don’t know what I was stimulated by, so I decided to give up sugar and wear sunscreen in my daily life. I replaced milk tea and sweet drinks with sugar-free oolong tea. When I went out, I had to wear a mask or a hat or apply enough sunscreen. I stepped on the trap several times in the morning and evening. At first, I couldn’t tolerate the redness of my skin, so I stopped using repair cream for a few days to stabilize it. After slowly building up tolerance, I persisted for 3 years. She is 32 this year. I met her at the last class reunion. The school girl who was younger than her in the past few years now has more obvious sunken eyes than hers. Her skin is very tight, her tear troughs have faded by half, and her apple muscles have not faded. When she smiles, the fine lines appear to be very energetic. Even the doctor who persuaded my sister to do the project was stunned for a moment when he saw her last time and asked her if she had secretly had fillers done.

Of course, some people say that she has a good foundation. Try it with someone who is born with less collagen and develops static lines at the age of 20? In fact, I think the so-called "counterattack" is not to compare your own shortcomings with others' strong points. If you abuse your skin every day and expect to rejuvenate yourself by applying an essence, it will definitely be a dream. But if you find the right skin care rhythm that suits you, don't follow the trend and make mistakes, and stick to it for two or three years, you will be in a much better condition than your peers who don't care about anything. It's really not that difficult. After all, anti-aging is a matter of hard work and reward. If you are lazy, it will be written on your face in the end.
