Oh my just realized your pic is male. Well, all of this still applies, except maybe the beauty boxes. LOL... I now have my husband addicted to expensive soaps and moisturizers. He was having an issue with some patches on his face and they are all gone now. A lot of men have terrible face skin and don't have to. There is a German line for men that is pretty kewl. It is called Face Lube for men,

Oh my....Looks like I am at home in this topic. I am a skin care junkie, and right now my skin is better than that of many 30 something year olds. I am 52 and wrinkle free.
As for UV protection, get a evening job like I have. I actually do everything at night, even gardening. My back yard is lit up like day. Driving to work etc, a 50 SPF is fine if not overkill.
Anyways, if you want any specific tips, just ask me, But the biggest is one you won't believe. I have used a buff puff for nearly 40 years along with hot water. And I scrub very well....
The funny thing is that I have over 30 or more different face cleansers and the least gentilest are the ones I keep reaching for. Gotta get rid of that wrinkle prone top layer of cells. A nice alcohol free toner was a nice addition in my 50's.
MitoQ gives my skin that youthful pink glow. I add this under my moisturizer.
I apply Sciote peptide defense around and under my eyes, along with a bit on my problem areas.
At bedtime, a 20% vitamin c serum such as Obagi, applied on top of Retin A gel is great also. Or use MitoQ a second time. Then apply a good night cream on top. Vit C serums are great for your arms also under your rich moisturizing cream.
For the backs of my hands, I use mitoQ serum. Then on top of this I add June Jacobs face moisturizer. My hands look better than 20 years ago. We are talking $119 and $130 priced items, Skin care is not cheap.
Make certain to use all face care products on your decollete. Buff puff, serum and a spf moisturizer.
Buy many lux beauty boxes to find the products that work best for you. I have many many huge boxes on unopened products let alone opened ones,
Lastly I really do think that low dose grape seed does me a lot of good. And sometimes I take low dose resveratrol also. Oh this reminds me.... Resv added to a good face cream does remove dark spots. But I think Mitoq does the same.
Ps. last xmas me and my daughter held our arms up together and you could not tell a difference in age, I took a pic I was so impressed. You see I was sort of crazed that she had a crease above the bridge of her nose. I am twice her age and don't have that. so I was teaching her the effects of good skin care. Anyways, i ran out and bought her some buff puffs, shea and buttermilk soap, and now provide her with 100% of her skin care products, That's what moms are for!
Use your best skin care at night, since this is when it will work the best!
