Skin care products for Menopausal Skin?

None.

The time to protect skin is when you're 12 or even younger. I've started @ age 9. By 35, the damage to the skin is done, and can't be reversed.

The earlier you protect yourself from the sun and soaking in the tub, the less wrinkles you get in the long run. Didn't say you do, but the skin is thirsty if they've been exposed to the sun, like grapes. No products can plump raisins back to grapes.

None of those anti aging products works. Many are not approved by the FDA, it's trendy right now because people are desperate. You can't plump a raisin back to grapes, not possible. You can try soaking them with serum, or whale sperm, or water or juice, but it's never the same as before. Skin is the same thing . . . that's why people go for the faster route. They travel to Brazil to get a cheap surgery, but they come back to Beverly Hills to get them corrected.

The function of the FDA is to monitor new drugs, such as anti aging products, entering into the marketplace and ensure that they are safe and effective. Unfortunately, many anti aging skin care products as well as other anti aging products use wild and exaggerated claims in their marketing materials.

According to the FDA, a big controversy with some of the advertising are claims that anti aging products will rejuvenate or repair or restructure the skin. These types of claims lead to speculation that the product is causing structural changes to the skin. If this is true, these products should be classified as drugs and should be removed from the market until the FDA has approved them. Conversely, if these claims are not true, the companies should stop claiming these features for their products.

EVEN IF A PRODUCT IS LABELED "HYPOALLERGENIC," IT MAY CONTAIN SUBSTANCES THAT CAN CAUSE ALLERGIC REACTIONS.

Good thinking! Question 6b is True!

After all, people are individuals. And there's no telling what any individual may be allergic to. According to the cosmetic industry, "hypoallergenic" means "less likely to cause an allergic reaction." But dermatologists - and consumers who have allergies - know that the word "hypoallergenic" on the label is no guarantee against an allergic reaction.

CHOOSING PRODUCTS WITH THE CLAIM "DERMATOLOGIST TESTED" IS A WAY TO AVOID AN ALLERGIC REACTION OR OTHER SKIN IRRITATION.

Nope! Question 6c is False!

"Dermatologist tested" doesn't really tell you much, does it? It leaves you wondering about things like:

•Did the dermatologist work for the manufacturer?

•How many people was the product tested on?

•How long did the testing last?

•What were the results of the testing?

Remember, poison ivy is all natural, too! But you probably don't want it on your skin. It is very possible to have an allergic reaction, or other irritation, from products labeled "all natural" or "organic." For example, lanolin, from sheep's wool, is a common natural ingredient in some moisturizers that sometimes causes allergic reactions.

I have looked for years as well. I can not find any. I did find some on ebay once but they were from long ago and nasty.
