Botox, facelifts, collagen, acupuncture treatments and expensive skin creams!!!!
Millions of dollars are spent annually on cosmetic procedures and expensive anti-aging treatments.
But for far less money ($5 and under), we can buy cheap but effective preventive facial/skin care. THINK SUNSCREEN. 
On a personal level, I know the power of sunscreen. For the last few weeks, I've been out of my favorite anti-aging skin creams. I use inexpensive; but effective drugstore potions. I've been too busy to clip coupons and pick up more.  But I've slapped on some sunscreen --important in Miami--and my skin has been looking great.  Less is more, especially if you remember the sunscreen. 
The latest crop of women's magazines -- Real Simple, First, For Me -- have written some interesting pieces about the frugal and effective power of sunscreen. On the low end, decent coverage can cost $5 (or less). Here's one cheapie that's gotten rave reviews:
Hawaiian Tropic Baby Faces & Tender Places  SPF 50 $5 (rated best stick protection by Real Simple)
On the higher end:  Lancome Soleil Ultra Expert Sun Care SPF 50 Sunscreen Face and Body Lotion $32.50....rated best cream by Real Simple.
