Skin Care, Supplements, Exercise

Not that much difference, really unsure about going into a serious anti aging skin care regimen right now at my age. =/ So looked for more on the side of prevention than anything else.

Skin care

- Neutrogena gentle exfoliating face wash
- Skinceuticals CE ferulic acid
- Derma + intensive base with CoQ10, gingko biloba, vitamin A and Vitamin E
- Derma + night cream with macadamia oil, CoQ10, vitamin E, (also a slightly different day time one without mac..)
Derma + intensive eye cream CoQ10, vitamin E, retinyl palmitate, jojaba oil.
- Sun screen (mostly just in the summer)
- Apply white tea / green tea to the skin
- Aloe vera gel day time.
- Avoiding long exposure to the sun :-D

Exercise.

- Running (30 minutes a day) - not for fun, but makes me feel good anyway.
- Ashtanga Yoga 4 days a week 1 hour a day - maintain flexibility and strength
- Free weights twice a week, bench press, squats etc etc... to mostly maintain muscle mass and -decrease risk of osteoporosis because of low body weight.
