I'm not sure about the stats pertaining to loss of skin elasticity but a lot has to do with lifestyle and genetics as well. From what I know (not an expert), Asians don't lose collagen and skin elasticity that quickly and whilst topical skincare can help, a lot has to do with diet and lifestyle too. I personally would just deal with whichever problem you feel troubles you the most. For some people who are still battling acne, that would be their primary concern. As for the eye area, sagging skin isn't as noticeable as lines and puffiness but I would say, address whichever your primary concern is. For products I've tried you can check out reviews on skincare in general here.

Thanks for sharing!! I was having a dilemma about this topic too!! So glad that I wasn’t alone!

But I still have a question! If you will please indulge me with an answer, I will be forever grateful!

I read from somewhere that after we turn 20, our skin will start to lose about 60% of its elasticity and begin to sag, especially we Asians. Scary~~

Anyway, I know for a fact that our eyes will start to age first. So, my question is which of the ageing concern should be addressed first? The sagging or ageing around the eyes? Or both??

Any product recommendation?

Thanks in advance~

Hi I’m not sure if you read this post as well which might address your questions http://www.mywomenstuff.com/2011/01/05/save-and-splurge-night-repair-anti-aging-serums-and-a-recipe-for-glowing-skin/

In a nutshell I find they both work the same way and even better together. But on their own I think they perform a similar function and they both work well to keep my skin looking better than if I don’t use anything at all. So either works fine in my view

lol i’m 18 and i’m using anti-aging skincare.
Prevention is better than cure I’d say + I just found out that 50% of sun damage is done before the age of 18!
