Botox, which scares me to death, and could literally maim you for life, is something any sane person would not attempt. "Anti-aging*...what? Nothing and no one can get rid of a line or a wrinkle. Soften them, certainly. But get rid of them? Never. If you try that, as per a plastic surgeon's knife, you will look like you could star in Mr. Tennessee Williams's classic, The Night of the Iguana, and you'd play the iguana! So, all of you Michiganders, how should you take care of your skin this holiday season? Two years ago I spent two months in the Ann Arbor area, starring in Neil Simon's "Plaza Suite." If you remember, that winter you had 10 straight days of 48 degrees below zero with the wind- chill factor. I thought I was in Hell and I have good skin! My skin care regimen is for all of my readers, male and female. CHn- ique really said it best with its ad, "Clean, Clarify and Tone." At night I use an aloe-based cleanser on my face, rinsing with warm water. Fresh ener (which is astringent without alcohol) follows, and then I hydrate : with my aloe creme with collagen and biotin (my 24 hour cream). Next, I apply night creme followed by eye creme. Sound intricate? Not really. When I have the cleanser on, I brush •! my teeth. That takes three minutes. The whole shebang takes a total of four! In the morning, I wash my face i with a mild cleanser that does not i contain alkaline or lanolin, rinse off, apply freshener, and then my aloe creme. That's it! Women would then add moisturizer if they are wearing makeup that day. In the cold winter weather, be sure to wear additional moisturizer, preferably one that does not have a heavy water content. Water...cold wind on your skin, freez ing, not a pretty picture. To complete your skin care regi men, if you are truly ambitious, you should perform a facial on yourself. Twice a week for normal to dry skin, three times weekly for normal to oily. Window gazing: (clockwise from top left) It's really quite easy. First use an Knitwear from Anthropologic; Christ exfoliate (a product that sluffs off mas sweater from Kathryn Scott; white dead cuticle from the surface layer of nighties from Harp's; live mannequin the skin.) Rinse off and use a drawing Jade Thieu with Liebchen at Figaro masque. This will not only remove any blackheads/sebum buildup, but Salon, clothes from Tender; snowboard will also tighten your pores.
