Skin + Me Stories: Antonia + Fine Lines & Wrinkles<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Hello, and step into Skin + Me Stories \u2013 a series where we talk to real-life Skin + Me customers about the good, the bad and the tricky bits of their personal skincare journeys so far. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, we\u2019re talking to Antonia, who\u2019s 48 from Tunbridge Wells, learning all about her skincare mistakes, current routine, and how she\u2019s tackling her fine lines and wrinkles with Skin + Me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tell us about your skincare journey over the years<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I really didn\u2019t look after my skin before, and only wore sunscreen if I went to the beach or on holiday. I really neglected my skin over the years, and it came to a point where I thought surgery or Botox would be the only way for me. Instead, I joined a skincare group and discovered the magic that is Skin + Me.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When did you first start using Skin + Me?<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I started Skin + Me in January 2021 and it\u2019s the best thing that has ever happened to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How has the process been overall? <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Since starting, I follow a strict routine of double cleanse, moisturiser and SPF50 every day, and after a couple of months, people started to comment on how glowing my skin looks. I\u2019m now 10 months in, and I look at my before pictures and can\u2019t believe it. My skin is glowing, my fine lines and wrinkles have improved and my sun damage disappeared. I\u2019ve just been to a family wedding and been told I look 10 years younger.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What advice would you give to someone struggling with their Skin + Me prescription?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I would recommend that people stick to a simple routine and follow the advice. Always remember your SPF50; I wish I had started this much earlier and not neglected my skin for years, but I urge anyone to start as it\u2019s never too late.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
