I might as well start the first DRNW topic...someone has to!  I've really enjoyed reading the book and keep going back to it to check on the details of what has been recommended for my skin type.  I'm currently trialling some products to see what I like, and it is fantastic to finally have some direction, but I feel that there a lot of products around that claim to have the benefits and ingredients that I need.  Spoilt for choice I guess.  My worry is that while they have the right ingredients they may not be manufactured or packaged in a way that preserves the active ingredients adequately and I'm wasting my money. 

Anyway - would anyone like to tell us about their favourite products for DRNWs?

I'm 60 years old with some wrinkling around my mouth and chin; a very few light lines at the outer corner of the eyes and brow. I've been using the $ priced products and have been getting good results!

Specifically I use:

1) Purpose Dual Treament Moisturizer - daytime moisturizer
2) Rachel Perry Ginseng-Collagen Wrinkle Treatment with MSM & Bioflavonoids - night time moisturizer
3) Neutrogena Healthy Skin Anti-wrinkle Cream Original - moisturizer with Retinol
4) Nivea Visage CoenzymeQ10 Plus Wrinkle Control Eye Cream
5) St Ives Swiss Formula Invigorating Apricot Scrub

I live in the 'arm pit of the universe' so none of the cleaners or serums that dr baumann mentions are available in my area stores - soooooo, I've been using a cleanser I found at my local beauthy supply store: Beyond Belief A-B-H Pore Refining foaming cleanser - which seems to be doing a fine job. For the serum I was finishing a product my daughter sent me: Philosophy When Hope Is Not Enough facial firming serum with gutathione, peptides, vitamin c & e and soy.

Now that I've run out of the serum, I thought maybe I better try to find a product which is available locally. I checked my food co-op's catalog and found about 5 products and checked them out online. I eliminated all but 2 products just based on their ingredients and comparison to dr baumann's ingredients list for drnw's. Then I checked dr baumann's site to see if either of these 2 were on her site. One was, but it said that it contained a product not good for our skin type so I want with the remaining choice. I just purchased 2 bottles, .55 oz ea, of Avalon CoQ10 Wrinkle Defense Serum. I'm hoping that it works well - I'd love to buy dr baumann's choice of SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic - but the price is prohibitive. I'll settle for a lesser but positive result if I can get it from the Avalon product. We'll see.

I'm filling the interum with a product I bought a while back with C E & A but I can see in the mirror that my face is 'backsliding' in the 2 days since I've had to make due! So, ingredients do matter!

Hi kmqq - I just finished posting something about the Avalon COQ10 Serum. Good move! Wait till you see how your skin loves this one. I think it is fabulous and I have used some expensive serums in my time!

kmqq,

Avon products are also faily easy to get a hold of.  I've used Avon's "Anew Luminosity..." but found it a bit heavy for daytime.  If your "arm pit of the universe" is drier you might like it.  I now use "Neutrogena Healthy Skin..." and I like it better, plus, it was easy to get at the local drug store.
I've also tried Avon's "Anew Line Eliminator..." at night but I am now using Retin-A Micro every night so I don't use the Avon product any more, although I did like it.  Anyway, I'm glad to see you have found products you like!
