I’m 40 but everyone says I look 25, the budget-friendly skincare products I swear by to look ‘forever young’
A 40-YEAR-OLD woman has revealed how she maintains her youthful complexion without getting work done.
She talked her followers through her budget-friendly skincare routine.
In her video, Adriana (@lil.icons) revealed that she often gets mistaken for someone who is in their mid-twenties due to her wrinkle-free skin.
“First of all, you look 25, what is your secret?” asked a follower in another clip.
Adriana showed her audience the items she swears by to look “forever young.”
For her first product, the TikToker uses a $15 hydrating facial cleanser from CeraVe.
“It has very good ingredients and it’s easy for me to buy,” she told her audience.
“What’s important for me in cleansing balms is that they don’t dry my skin and the second thing is how good it actually cleanses your skin,” Adriana added.
Directly after cleansing your skin, she recommended adding micellar water.
Adriana said she swears by the $8 Garnier micellar water with rose water and glycerin, which she revealed she has been using for 10 years.
Next, she advised her viewers to invest in good rose water for their complexion.
“During my pregnancy, I noticed my skin breaks out more and is more oily,” Adriana explained.
“I had some red breakouts on my forehead at the beginning of my pregnancy then I started to use [rose water] and they disappeared, my skin looks much better,” she said.
One of the brands she suggested was Rosense, which has rose water facial toner available for just $10.
She also highlighted the importance of retinol in maintaining her youthful appearance.
Adriana, who uses a $42 Regenacalm 3% Serum from Facetheory, said she began using the ingredient at the age of 30.
To follow her retinol step, she recommended using a $29 anti-wrinkle facial serum.
“I love this one, this is very moisturizing,” she explained to her followers.
Adriana followed this up with a $55 Caudalie Resveratol-Lift Firming Cashmere Cream.
“I was using this one for a while, and my skin looked amazing and then I bought something else and my skin looked a bit worse,” she said.
“So I came back to this one and it started to look good again,” Adrian revealed.
She also advised her viewers to do a peeling facial mask at least once a week and use Vitamin C to maintain a youthful complexion.
