I'm turning 23 this year and I was wondering if it was about time that I started on one. I appreciate your feedback :) <font color="#990033"><strong>Rachel</strong>: <em> It depends on your skin condition. Starting a basic anti-aging skincare regime maybe too early and if your skin is good, then you just need to maintain with cleanse, tone and moisturize daily plus sunscreen protection. Scrub and masks once or twice a week should be good enough. You need to determine your skin type as well to get the right products. </em></font> I hope these products work well on you :)
