Curious - how much on average do you spend a year on face creams/make up/ anti-aging stuff?

1. Considering sunscreen is the ONLY product with PROVEN antiaging benefits and I wear it religiously

daily year-round--even on cloudy days or under florescent lighting (yup, it is a source), even in Colorado--then at a minimum I'm sure I spend $10-$15 monthly--even for drugstore purchased brands. Anything else is just for moisture and even Vaseline can serve for that function.

While there is some suggestion that anti-oxidant and exfoliating compounds can help, but I think sun exposure prevention is still the only one shown to really reduce/slow aging of skin. So, I try to put those extra $$ into a very healthy diet with lots of fresh fruits and vegetables instead.
