be honest with me...about WRINKLES...

I live in Florida so I'm super careful about applying sunscreen.  I use one that has titanium and zinc oxide but it doesn't feel heavy on my skin or as if it's clogging my pores.

I also follow a good skin cleansing regimen at home.  I'm in my early-50s so I use a glycolic cleanser in the morning and an enzyme cleanser at night.  I'm seeing a big difference in my skin.

I'm also now using a hyaluronic acid product as a hydrator.  It absorbs moisture and brings it into my skin.  The H.A. is the same stuff that's in one of the injectible products used for wrinkles. 
I'm optimistic that I won't have an increase in my face wrinkles once I've lost weight.  As far as the folds and sagging skin after -- well, that's a problem I'll be happy to deal with!

We use moisterizers and stuff to hydrate our skin. But when we lose fat in our face theres not a ton you can do to prevent that. The fat plumps the face for a youthful look and when it's gone.....well....You are so young though and don't appear to carry a lot of weight in your face,, so you should be good =) I think it is worse for those who carry a lot of weight in their face.
