Hi,

My skin is oily and I feel its showing signs of wrinkles (not exactly wrinkles but not a very smooth skin) and has become dark.

From next month I have work in the sun the whole day (35 to 45 degrees).
So can you please suggest what is the required care to be taken.

I do not apply anything to my face as of now except aloe Vera cold cream. I am guy (FYI) and I am not sure what sort of other questions I have to answer for you to suggest what I have to do.

Few of them I guess you require
I smoke
Travel in traffic(pollution)
26 yrs old
Use mild soap
Shampoo hair everyday

I have attached the skin tone chart (my skin tone according to that would be 1nd one on Pallor Asian)
Please let me know any specific questions to be answered.

Thanks,
Rajesh

I was going to suggest Retin A for the oiliness and early signs of wrinkle but since you're going to be exposed to the sun for long hours, it might not be too convenient and will most likely result in skinburns as you need to stay away from the sun while using Retin A...

You can start with a good moisturizer and sunblock with SPF >50...

Gr8stuff is right. Sunblock is essential, especially if you are out in the sun for a long period. The sun is your worst enemy when it comes to wrinkles.

Also, at night try using a night cream. There is plenty to choose from in the market, but you can search for reviews on makeupalley Makeupalley Product Reviews (http://www.makeupalley.com/product/) on whether it would be worth purchasing or not.

I agree with the above, also is it possible for you to wear a farmer's hat and have your arms and neck covered? It may make you feel hotter, but it will give more protection.
