37, combo skin, occasional pimples that I unfortunately can't help from picking, Botox every 3-4 months
Morning: currently using a sample of Laura Mercier flawless skin face polish, followed by cvs brand toner, then Paula's Choice 2% BHA. Makeup is Laura Mercier primer and tinted moisturizer with SPF, Trish McEvoy for blush, bronzer and eye shadow, drugstore eyeliner and mascara (currently Maybelline in the pink tube) Evening: cetaphil cleanser, followed by CVS brand toner and Paula's choice 2% BHA. A few times a week instead of the Paula's choice I use philosophy micro delivery over night anti-aging peel. Oh, and morning and night after BHA I've been using a sample of Estée Lauder advanced night repair eye serum synchronized complex II and I think I like it enough to maybe purchase. |

34 yo, fair skin
Morning: Rosewater witch hazel spritz followed by MyChelle Replenishing Solar Defense SPF 30 to face and décolleté, RMS Un-Coverup under eyes and on any discolorations, curl lashes with Shu Uemura curler and brush out brows and lashes with a clean spoolie, apply Burt's Bees Red Dahlia lip balm. I also use a zinc oxide sun stick on the backs of my hands and any exposed parts of my forearms. I always wear a wide-brim hat and sunglasses and usually wear long sleeves in breathable fabrics. Can you tell I don't like getting sun? 
Afternoon: Reapply zinc oxide sun stick as needed. Drink enough water and try not to eat crap food. Evening: Shower with DD and use her Honest baby wash on my face. Occasionally apply a 5% or 10% glycolic lotion and/or hyaluronic acid serum and/or use a scrub. Use Acure Night Cream (light lavender scent, not too heavy). Try to get 8 hours of sleep and not smush my face in the pillow. |

When did you start botox? I am 32 and seriously considering it for the same (11s and horizontal forehead lines). How many units did you start out with? How much do you pay? |

Morning. I do not wash my face unless for some reason I did not wash my face the night before. I usually wake up and apply Murad Eye Lift Firming Treatment since I sleep with my face squished on the pillow and wake up with under eye wrinkles. I then apply Urban Environment Oil-Free UV Protector SPF 42 all over my face. Then I use Supergoop! Advanced Anti-Aging Eye Cream with Oat Peptide SPF 37 under my eyes and on my eyelids. After this sets, I use Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer Broad Spectrum SPF 20 all over my face. Then I use Marc Jacobs Highliner Gel Eye Crayon Eyeliner; Dior Diorshow Mascara; Laura Mercia gold shimmer eyeshadow; Anastasia brow gel; Bobbi brown lipstick in light rose pink. Night I wipe my face with Neutrogena Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelettes Night Calming makeup wipes. Then I wash my face with REN Evercalm™ Gentle Cleansing Milk. Use rosehip oil from Whole Foods. And then the Drunk Elephant Vitamin C serum. Some times I add this korean snail serum. |

Neutrogena Oil Free Moisture SPF 15 on face, neck, and ears Makeup: -Laura Mercier Illuminating Tinted Moisturizer in Bare -Benefit Boing Undereye Concealer -Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion in Sin (works as a browbone highlighter too) -Marc Jacobs Fineliner Ultra-Skinny Gel Eyeliner in Truffled -NARS Orgasm or Deep Throat powder blush (deep throat is more for winter) -Almay Brow Pencil in dark blonde (used to use Anastasia and this one's my favorite) -L'Oreal Voluminous mascara on bottom lashes - I have extensions on top -Burt's Bees tinted lip oil in one of a few colors Seems like a lot but it takes me a maximum of 3-4 minutes.

I started around age 32. I pay $159 for 20 units, though that's here in NYC. I believe it's more expensive in DC- it seems to be cheaper in more looks-focused places like NYC, Miami, LA. |

| ^^ oh and I've always gotten 20 units, divided among those two areas, every 5-6 months. |

am: Wash with good old st Ives apricot scrub in the shower. Skinmedica vitamin c & e serum. ASDM Beverly Hills Tepezcohuite cream. So cheap. So good. Fresh Rose hydrating eye gel cream. Some spf lotion the dermatologist recommended that I can't remember the name of. On a typical day out with the kids: Laura mercier tinted moisturizer. Yves St Laurent touché eclat for under the eyes. Diorshow mascara. NARS blush. Dusting of Laura mercier translucent setting powder on the t zone. Lip crayon (nars or Trisha McEvoy) with burts bees or a gloss over it (Armani, Yves st Laurent, buxom are favorite brands) On more dressed up days I'll use Smashbox Photo Finish primer and Armani luminous silk foundation instead of the tinted moisturizer.

Josie Maran Argan oil around eyes and on forehead. Fresh black tea eye cream. Same moisturizer as morning in the summer. In winter switch to cerave cream. Favorite masks: GlamGlow Youth Mud and Shiseido Benefiance sheet masks |
