Everyone shudders to think of the fact that we shall grow old and that all that is packaged with youth may not always remain as the same.

The first signs of aging may perhaps be ones that erupt after the obvious laugh lines and crows feet. However, there are some more signs that you may detect and tackle from time to time.

Creepiness on your neck
You could try using anti-aging formulas, especially those that contain gentle antioxidants such as green tea or grape seed extract and vitamin C or coenzymes rather than AHA exfoliators.

A good idea to pick and choose would be Nivea Visage Q10 Plus Wrinkle Control Lotion SPF 15, Caudalie Nourishing Treatment, etc. Although its best to use those that suit your skin, but these are the generally accepted lotions that may be of use to you.

Pointers
A foundation line at your jaw definitely draws your attention to this area -- so if this is your trouble spot, make sure you get the closest makeup match possible.

The second most frequent cause for worry are the sun spots and uneven coloring on your upper chest and neck. You could get rid of these or perhaps lighten these with creams combining skin lighteners like hydroquinone, cogic acid or vitamin C, with either skin soothers or anti- inflammatories. Good picks would include, Olay Total Effects Anti-Aging Moisturizing Body Treatment, Palmer's Skin Success Eventone Fade Milk.

Pointers:
Because this area is especially sensitive, its best if you could do a patch test before beginning the regular use of the spot-erasing treatment.

Sun spots, extreme dryness, cracking on your hands, are most irritating, if not treated on time. You could ease out this problem by using creams that combine skin lighteners with heavy, protective, "glovelike" ingredients such as petrolatum, mineral oil, glycerin and an SPF. Good pickswould include Olay Total Effects Hand Visible Anti-Aging Moisturizing Treatment with UV Protection, Cellex-C Skin Firming Hand Cream, Lubriderm Skin Renewal Age Defying Hand Cream SPF 15

Pointers:
To avoid recurring sun spots, its best to apply smooth sunscreen over your hands any time you apply it to your face. Avoid drying out skin by wearing gloves while washing dishes or gardening and of course limit your use of antibacterial soaps, these cause more harm than good.

Dryness, lack of elasticity and dullness on your torso (back, front, buttocks, upper arms and thighs) This is especially important as your skin does not only comprise of your face, it also deals with your entire body.

Products to try:
Lighter lotions combining traditional moisturizing ingredients such as glycerin and petrolatum with instant surface smoothers like dimethicone, or for a visual boost, light-reflecting particles.

Good picks: Nivea Body Silky Shimmer Lotion, Neutrogena Visibly Firm Body Lotion, Origins A Perfect World Highly Hydrating Body Lotion with White Tea

Pointers:
For enhanced -- and speedier -- results, borrow a spa trick and prep the area by brushing with a loofah to help it absorb the lotion.
