I had crepey arms but not anymore – my 4-step routine transformed my skin, I also discovered a habit that works wonders

A SKINCARE fan has revealed the easy-to-follow routine that improved her crepey arms.

She swore by the four-step regimen that transformed her skin.

Redditor Glass-Maven shared the body anti-aging tips in a post.

“I had crepey arms but not anymore,” she said.

After sticking to a straightforward routine, the lines on her arms vanished.

She explained that gentle exfoliation with a cloth or scrub was the first step to keeping lines at bay.

Next, she uses a “light acid” such as an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) to keep new skin resurfacing.

Keeping her arms as hydrated as possible is also a critical step.

“Moisturize as much as you can, also 50+ sunscreen,” she said.

Exfoliation, a light acid, moisturizing, and sunscreen made all the difference in the appearance of her arms.

She revealed she swears by Ren’s $35 AHA Smart Renewal Body Serum and cream lotions by Rovectin and La Roche-Posay.

While the hefty price tag may be hard to swallow for some, The Ordinary also sells an AHA for $9.50.

The Redditor added that she’s interested in trying out Krave Beauty’s latest body cream after positive experiences with the brand.

“There’s a new-ish body cream by Krave Beauty I’d love to try because all their products are stunning,” she said.

For those who struggle with loose arm skin, she explained that there was no point in worrying about things out of your control.

“There isn’t too much you can do about laxity of skin,” she said.

“Weightlifting helps a bit, but if it is significant, surgery or self-acceptance are your two options.”

However, she added that building muscle went a long way in tightening up her skin.

“Weightlifting did wonders for me and my arms, personally, plus I gained bone mass, so I mentioned it,” she said.

Others agreed that weight gain may be a solution to crepey arms.

“This has happened to me lately, too. I weigh about 20 pounds less now than my average weight my whole life,” said one commenter.

“My upper arms look hideous when I move them certain ways. I used to love tank tops and sundresses with a halter-type top, but there’s no way I’d feel comfortable wearing them now.”

“Yep. I had a consult with a plastic surgeon, and he told me my most affordable option is to gain 20 pounds and that I’d probably be satisfied with just that for another seven to ten years,” said another.

“He said thin people tend to show their age earlier because of the lack of fat volume filling you out.”
