A SKINCARE enthusiast has shared a drugstore product she's dubbed a miracle for her skin.
The accessible buy, she said, vanished her wrinkles and fine lines.
Redditor shared the anti-aging tips in a post.
Beauty, she explained, starts from within - which she meant literally.
"Think about adding a hydrolyzed collagen supplement to your diet," she urged.
";I’ve been a skincare junkie since puberty and have no wrinkles yet at 35, but I could see a hint of line forming between my brows."

She'd tried collagen supplements for a short while in her 20s and noticed a huge difference after adding them back into her routine.
"Within a month, I saw improvements in my skin (it’s just glowing and looks really plump and buoyant), and there’s no longer even a hint of a line between my brows," she said.
"That stuff is a miracle drug (also took care of all my joint pain)."
Other self-care steps that have helped her include drinking more water and adding hyaluronic acid supplements to her diet.

The supplements, she explained, help the body hydrate "more efficiently."
She added that topical application of hyaluronic acid can go a long way to plumping the skin.
" makes a nice, affordable one that I’ve been using for several years!" she said.
"I wash my face, gently pat dry so there’s a little moisture left behind, and then apply the serum and gently rub it into my skin. It really helps with hydrating your skin!"
Her biggest tip, however, is to take preventative measures, like wearing sunscreen daily, to keep wrinkles away in the first place.
"I would also recommend that you start wearing a sunscreen of SPF 50 every single day," she said.

She told The U.S. Sun that her goal is to equip patients with the knowledge they need to take control of their skin journey.
She said the fundamental basics of a beauty routine are the same for all ages — it should include an effective cleanser, moisturizer, and SPF.
"Moisturizers are my superstar, even over products containing active ingredients," she said.
“Finding a well-balanced moisturizer that provides the right kind of hydration, replaces natural oils, and seals them in, literally stabilizes your skin.
“This in itself quickly can soften the appearance of fine lines and texture, as often these are worsened by dehydration.
“It also allows the skin to function as it should.
“It then can heal faster, which, among many things, can lead to fewer lines and wrinkles, less flares of dermatitis and rosacea, and shorter-lived, milder breakouts.”

The skincare aficionado raved about the benefits of tretinoin, which she dubbed the singular "best ingredient for anti-aging," sunscreen aside.
Although she noted that the treatment takes some time to get used to, it's worth it in the long run.
The Redditor swore by tretinoin, saying it is so effective that it's kept her friends off cosmetic procedures.
"I have friends who got Botox, started tretinoin, and then eventually quit getting Botox because the tretinoin took care of their problem areas," she said.

She added that anyone not using tretinoin was making a colossal mistake.
"Everyone’s skin is different, but if you are able to use tretinoin, it would be stupid not to!" she said.
