Is it ever too early to start using wrinkle products?

[TXbeauty]

I've always wondered this. I see really young women buying these products. I'm guessing it is a preventative measure, but would it really work? My grandmother told me that keeping your skin well moisturized will help starve off the wrinkles. I don't have any yet, but my friend who is the same age (23) buys the stuff all the time. Her medicine cabinet is full of anti-aging, wrinkle reducers, fine-line removers yadda, yadda. I think she's being paranoid.

What do you guys think?

Preventative measures are better than no measures. Nip it in the bud now and the results will benefit you in the long run.

I think it is better to prevent also.....aging start from teenage u know.....I dont know where have I read it but the article says so.....

I've read that a wrinkle can take up to 15 years to form (no kidding!) so in my case I can start to get wrinkles now from when I was 15! So even starting young (teenager/early twenties) is not a bad thing. Thankfully I just turned 30 and dont have any wrinkles yet.

If you buy a wrinkle cream that has other benefits too, like moisturising or something, then you might as well use it. Like Vogue said- better than nothing

Exactly. A lot of the cremes out there offer more than just wrinkle benefits.

I wouldn't, but that's just me. I'm 14 and don't give a care if I ever get wrinkles. I also don't believe any wrinkle creams help as much as some seem to believe.

I didn't care about wrinkles at 14 either but they're real!

...the BEST preventative measure you can take is to slather on sunscreen galore 365 days a year because the sun is the worst offender

I know, I just can't see myself making a big deal about lines.
