What age is the best to start a regular anti-aging routine? Now, says our expert -- try her tips to get started today.
Question: "When should I start using an anti-aging regimen?"

Answer: Right now! "It's never too early to start an anti-aging routine," says Doris Day, MD, a dermatologist in New York City.

The easiest way to prevent your skin from showing signs of aging is to use sunscreen with an SPF of 30 every day. Choose a formula that contains brightening ingredients such as glucosamine to help diminish hyperpigmentation like brown spots. If you're plagued by fine lines, use a treatment that contains alpha-hydroxy acids to turn over surface cells and peptides; this will help build collagen and elastin in your deeper layers.

A final word from Dr. Day: "It's very important to get rest, drink plenty of water, take a daily multivitamin, and keep a young mind-set!"

A new study shows that resveratrol supplementation can slow the ravages of time on our skin. I take the Resvantage resveratrol supplement as it is the best quality one and the one that most physicians recommend. Many women I know spend thousands on anti-aging skin creams when in fact they should be preserving their skin internally at the cellular level through diet and supplementation.
