xxxFrancis Lee: 10:12am Mar 28, 2007: Any more context? Is this e.g. a stand-alone sentence?
Craig Meulen: 1:14pm Mar 28, 2007: As usual, I'm with Francis - we need more context to decide how free we are to play with the word order, especially the issue "skin care" vs "xxx for skin"
Andrea Obrien: 1:21pm Mar 28, 2007: Context: - this is a headline at the start of the brochure, it is followed by a list of different products for "mature" skin (cleanser, cream, peeling etc.) for men and women.
xxxFrancis Lee: 5:37pm Mar 28, 2007: This is why I asked. If this selection of products is in fact simply aimed at the 40-100 age-group, then my suggestion would be wrong. In which case ... (shriek, fire, brimstone etc.). Why does nobody else seem to care ?
Andrea Obrien: 6:59am Apr 2, 2007: Thank you everybody! -

Alternatively, you could say "Superior skin care for forty-somethings"

into your forties

Erklärung:
"Perfect skin care into your forties"

There are many simples things you can do as far as anti-aging skin care, and many don't require topical creams, serums or lotions to keep you looking and feeling your best. Provided you follow a healthy diet and exercise plan, protect yourself from the sun and keep your skin hydrated regularly, you'll be able to keep your youthful glow well into your forties and beyond.http://www.antiagingsecrets.co.uk/skin.php

-> Try "for skin over". You have to sort the wheat from the chaff, but there are plenty of relevant hits for skin over lots of ages.

Zustimmung

Craig Meulen: ... // one-third of your hits are for "care" as a verb, another third are for "skin + noun" (skin disease, skin cancer patients). But the other third are, well, proof that naturalness is in the eye of the beholder :-)

-> I confess I'm not sure what you mean. It's not "care for skin", it's "perfect care" and "for skin over forty". Try google; it will tell you that "care for skin" is common and natural-sounding. www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=%22care+for+skin%22&meta=
