I am really excited found this forum about a month ago just after my birthday on the 18 April 2011. That's when I started my campaign to look not younger but better. I took some pictures on my first day and some today I didn't really think I looked any different to be honest but when I looked at the pictures I can see so much improvement I just want to share it with everyone and know what you think is there anyway of posting a picture I think I just want confirmation that I am not imagining things and that the improvement is real. I must say I hate the first picture and when I saw it I nearly deleted it straight away but I am now so glad I didn't as now I have been brave enough to compare with today's photos.
Thank you so much ladies for all your advice I will be on here for ever now. Very Happy

I am not sure how many posts you have to have before you can post links/photos, but once you reach that level you can use a program like photobucket etc to upload your photos on EDS. What products are you using that have produced results in a month? (And congratulations! Very Happy )

Yes, inquiring minds "need" to know and also your age if you don't mind.

I am 47 ( I look it as well) I never wanted to look younger and to be honest I still don't I have no doubts at all that I look my age. But I feel so much better knowing that my skin has improved so much. I haven't spent a fortune in fact less than I would normally spend.
Routine before. a.m Clarins Cleanser, Prevage serum and eye cream and dior moisturiser.

P.M Clarins cleanser, Prevage serum and prevage night cream and eye.

Now my husband for my birthday bought me a stop machine did my first treatment on my birthday nearly bought the lightstem but went for STOP instead (juries still out on that. I have a Ultratone plus that I have had for at least 10 years (from a boot sale) I do five minutes each side of my face morning and evening I do a walk with KY as conductive gel. I have been scrubbing my skin which I have never done not at least to this extent. I went and bought a battery scrubber so I suppose its a bit like clarisonic which I read about on here but I only paid £8.00 from Asda, doing that morning and evening and dry brushing my eyelids. 2 Weeks ago I started using copper peptides skin signals solution and twice as tight Monday to Friday in the morning , lacsal in the evening with olive oil on top. I have always thought you had to spend a fortune on products but compared to Prevage these are a fraction of the price. I have literally sat on my computer and read every posting on here looking for tips and advice which has been brilliant. I would have never used oil on my face but some one advised me. now my daughter uses it as well .
Anyway I just wanted to say thanks guys and this is me. Never done this before so I hope my link works.
I think you my have to copy and paste and please don't do in before bed you will only have nightmares LOL

By the way the first Photo was in my bedroom the second my sitting room the light is the same in both. I took them both on my iPhone I think one is a little closer not sure why but its really hard to take your own picture. Believe it or not I am wearing the same make up. I had my hair cut in between so no band.

You do look great! - the most significant difference seems to be in the eye area. Your eyes lids look lifted now. So are you attributing your improvements mostly to the Skin Signals Serum?

Congratulations - and thanks for sharing. Very Happy

I can see a tremendous difference in your pictures! Wow! You look great! Not only is your eye area lifted (as Keliu noted) but your lower face seems lifted as well -- less sag.

Could the lift be attributed to the STOP or ultratone? You're definitely doing something right! Very Happy

Not sure I think its the exfoliation myself I think the stop helps improve your skin but not lifting the ultratone I had for years but never used but it really lifts (they are secondhand on ebay around £20.00), I find that when I do the dry brushing on my lids in the morning they lift right up, Also just started taking vitamins MSM and vit c. The reason I posted on here is because I always take it all with a pinch of salt and I love looking at photos. As I say I just would like to look good for my age not really younger just feel more confident.

I think you definitely look younger in your "After" photo and much more refreshed.

Thanks for sharing!

1st time to post. I have to say your before and after photos are absolutely amazing. I'm taking notes on all this. I'm 57 and never thought aging would bother me. Wrong!

Actually I was wondering that also. It seems some improvement came as a result of dry brushing on the eyelids. What did you use for dry brushing?

Thanks for sharing your pictures - they are very nice and you look refreshed, younger and more vibrant in the after - congratulations on finding a simple solution to a better look.

thanks so much for sharing your pics, its always abit hard to do that.

there has definitely been an improvement, and after such a short time that is quite significant, I'm sure it will only improve even more! I think CP's are pretty special, especially for tone and tightening? I am using them about 7-8 months and I so wish I had taken before pics. I never quite trust my 'own eye' so to speak. But I feel they are doing something!

good luck and keep up the great work!

Wow! I really think that all the extra 'handling' of your skin leads to reduced puffiness and better tone. Effective products are the icing on the cake. Well done. The deeper tan really suits you, too. Smile

Thanks so much for sharing those! I agree you you've figured out what works! I've never heard of dry brushing the eyelids. Would you please note what you use to do it and how you do it, too? Thank you and congratulations on your great new look. Smile

I just turned 45 yesterday and am on a mission to freeze time now! I don't like how my face is aging. My eyelids have gone really crepey and I have lip lines from smoking (quit 3 yrs ago). Amazing after pix, thanks for sharing.
