A funny thing happened last month. I became a year older. Aging isn’t something that I take lightly, I know that there are many people who don’t get this privilege each year. I truly celebrate each year as the gift that it is. But, that doesn’t mean that I’m okay with my skin looking like it is aging, because that I am not okay with. I am so thankful to partner with RoC Skincare a company that understands that aging is a part of life, but that wrinkles don’t have to be.
I feel like I am at my happiest point in my life. As I get closer to 40, each year just seems to get better, and I have so much excitement for the future! I want to look and feel my best during this great time in my life so exercise and healthy eating are at the top of my priorities these days, as is taking care of my whole body down to my skin.
I want healthy skin that looks as young as I feel, no matter what my age is. Keeping my skin hydrated and out of the sun has been something that I have worked on starting before I was a teenager. My grandmother kept face cream by her sink and was religious about using it in the morning and at night. Her skin was always beautiful and looked decades younger than she was. She would be thrilled to know that so many people care about their skin these days and that there are products available now that help keep the signs of aging at bay, and treat deep wrinkles, like RoC® Skincare.
RoC® Skincare even partnered with independent research firm Sperling’s Best Places for the 2016 RoC® Wrinkle Ranking study. This is a city by city look at the metropolitan areas’ risk for skin damage and premature aging by the year 2040. The analysis is based on factors commonly known to affect skin health like lifestyle, occupational and environmental influences.
I was so happy to see that my city of San Diego ranked 42. Far from the #1 city most likely to wrinkle, Philadelphia. Poor Philadelphia! It was interesting to see where the different cities ranked.
The good news is that no matter where your city ranked on the list, you can still protect your skin starting today. Even if you have wrinkles right now, help is here with RoC® Skincare, a leading French skincare brand for more than 50 years, devoted to developing anti-aging products that guarantee visible and lasting results for healthier and younger-looking skin.
For the past week, I have been using two products from the RETINOL CORREXION® line which utilizes retinol, the “gold standard” in anti-aging skin care ingredients, giving years back to the look and feel of skin. After a week of use, my skin feels so soft and I can’t wait to see the results in a couple more weeks! I have always used a sunblock and moisturizer each day and it is nice to have one product that protects and keeps my skin so hydrated!
These are the products I’ve been using and they can be purchased at CVS:
RETINOL CORREXION® Sensitive Eye Cream- RoC® RETINOL CORREXION® EYE CREAM: Contains an exclusive combination of pure retinol and an essential mineral complex that is clinically proven to visibly reduce the signs of aging in the eye area. When you apply RoC® RETINOL CORREXION® EYE CREAM, the formula starts to work immediately to smooth skin’s surface. With continued use, you will notice a visible reduction in wrinkles around the eye, crow’s feet, dark circles, and puffiness – addressing the most common concerns of women. The result – skin around the eyes will feel healthier and look younger. The hypoallergenic, non-greasy, moisturizing cream is specially formulated for use around the delicate eye area.
RETINOL CORREXION® Deep Wrinkle Daily Moisturizer SPF 30 RoC® RETINOL CORREXION® DEEP WRINKLE DAILY MOISTURIZER WITH SPF 30: Contains an exclusive combination of pure retinol and the latest sunscreen technology that is specifically engineered to deliver very broad and photostable UVA and UVB protection with an SPF 30. The moisturizer is clinically shown to visibly diminish deep wrinkles after 8 weeks of use*. Daily use of the protective moisturizer will also help prevent premature aging.
I just turned 40 and it was rough. I do not have any wrinkles yet but I think good genes and a good living environment is to thank for this. I will be sure to check this out as I start my proactive approach to aging
Unfortunately, I am not in your boat. I need to get some ROC for myself!
It looks I live in an area that won’t contribute to my wrinkles. HOWEVER, I still want to do everything I can to keep them at bay. Thanks for sharing this.
I need some ROC asap. I am already starting to wrinkle around my eyes, and its awful. I’m just newly 31! Need this for myself asap!
I may need to look into this. I am in a high wrinkle town.
I love ROC! It really works-I use it every night.
ROC sounds like such a great brand! I would love to try it sometime and see how well it works!
As I approach 40, the fine lines are really starting to show. I need to try ROC to see if it will help make those lines a little less noticeable!
Michigan is on the list. I am thankful that at 41 I barely have fine lines or wrinkles. I have a couple of small ones. I should probably tackle those before they get out of control 😉
It sounds like a great product to try! I see some lines on my face that really needs this! Can’t wait to try and see the results!
Happy belated birthday, first of all. Getting older isn’t problematic for me, but aging skin certainly isn’t my favorite. Glad to know I can find such great solutions as easily as heading to CVS.
Happy Birthday and turning 40 is fab, BTW.
Good grief! Atlanta is in the top 20.
I will have to try RoC® Skincare. I do not want to get to many wrinkles if I can avoid it. I am almost 50 and so far I have been lucky.
Oh no…I live on the other side of the state in Pittsburgh. Think I will be likely to wrinkle like those in Philly?!?!?! How do they even come up with these stats? Mind boggling.
I never knew where you lived could affect the wrinkles you get. Thanks for the info. I need to try this product.
My city isn’t on here, but probably only because it’s not big enough to be on the radar! I have this product in my cabinet- I need to start using it.
I need to give this a try, I have some frown lines. Looks like a great product!
Being in a sunny area, the sun is brutal. I have to be especially careful of my chest.
I’ve head of RoC®. Very popular brand! That’s interesting how our environment can affect our skin.
I don’t hae wrinkles yet but noticing some skin changes. I do have daily SPF so that must be helping
Finally, products I can use!! I use one of these products all the time, I want to try these other products!!
Having used ROC products I have to say I think they are quite good. Despite the fact that they seem quite powerful, I’ve never had any skin irritation from them.
ROC makes some really great products. I’m a big fan and love the results I get from using their skincare.
I’ve always wondered about ROC. I’ve got a line on my forehead I might have to give it a whirl with. We are definitely lucky to get older. 🙂
I have been using RoC now for a while and love it. The whole city wrinkle thing shocked me and I have been sticking to my regimen even more!
Wow look at this infographic my city is on there, and yes the commute can stress you out I know! I drive through it all the time…I dont want early wrinkles because of it!
Just because you are getting older doesn’t mean you have to look it! I have not had the chance to try these products but I have seen them on the shelf. Next time they will find their way into my cart!
It’s nice to hear about a new product or brand. And I agree, I don’t take aging lightly either. It is a privilege, for sure!
Happy Birthday to you, I am sure you had some great fun! I am almost getting close to the 40s and being a restless busy mom I might definitely need something like ROC to help with the wrinkles.
nice products there! i can’t live without my serum and moisturizer as the humidity and the weather in dubai is not skin friendly at all
I love RoC products. What an interesting infographic. I am wondering if I should move to save my skin, lol.
I need something like this! I am getting more wrinkles each year and although they “give you character” I thin I have good enough character and could less wrinkles LOL!
This sounds like a great product – who wants wrinkles? I found the study very interesting and will be doing all I can to protect my skin.
I wonder what my Canadian city would rank on this list. I definitely want to fight any signs of aging that are showing. Keeping my skin moisturized and healthy are very important.
These products look great! I don’t think I’m as lucky as you to live in an area that doesn’t wrinkle me though 😉
I actually really love Roc products. It’s interesting to see how environmental factors can impact your skin and potential wrinkles!
Oh no! I live in a high wrinkle area…that’s not good. I’ve tried RoC before, but maybe I should be using it more often!
I live in Canada and would love to know how my city ranks! I use skincare everyday. I want to keep wrinkles at bay!
It is never too early to start a good skincare regime. I am going to take a look at where my city ranks!
I haven’t heard of RoC Skincare, but this sounds like a great line of beauty products. I have fine lines and wrinkles. I would love to try this.
At 43 years old I can use all the help I can get with my skincare routine! Definitely going to check out RoC Skincare! Thanks for the resource!
This is a good-looking product line.
And I like your map progression charts.
My Mom swears by Roc. I love the diverse product line and I need to start using it. 30 is here! Yikes!
Retinal creams are my favorite!!!! I’m in my early 30s and starting to see those first signs of aging and these types of lotions help so much!
There is nothing like a good beauty routine to rely on to reduce the chances of wrinkles before you have any. I think these products are amazing.
I’m looking to move back to NYC, so at least now I will be prepared to not wrinkle sooner. I just hope the my skincare routine and good genes helps.
My small city isn’t on the list, but this is an interesting list, nonetheless! I have never used this line before, but I have heard nothing but good about it over the years. 🙂
I should definitely buy this! Specially since I live in Miami and the sun here accelerates the appearance of wrinkles!
I am in love with these products. They definitely help in keeping the wrinkles at bay.
This is so interesting that there are different areas that have different extremes that help or hinder skin. These products would help either way!
