Skin care is crucial for all skin types and helps prevent premature wrinkles. It’s important to incorporate products containing rejuvenating ingredients into your routine, according to Daily Express.
What people often ignore
People with aging skin may think they’re doing enough by using moisturizers and other products. However, this is not the case.
Cosmetologist Rebecca Crawforth explained that as we age, our skin constantly changes, and it’s essential not to neglect annual dermatologist visits for a thorough skin analysis.
"It's true that you're only as old as you feel, but your skin goes through a lot over the years which can result in dry and sensitive skin as you mature. Sensitive, dry skin is common as we age and we should adapt our beauty routine to this. Your skin will respond better to a non-fragranced moisturizer and a mild chemical exfoliator than perfumed products and exfoliating scrubs," she said.
Monthly professional facials are an excellent anti-aging option. The benefits of professional facial treatments are undeniable in improving skin tone and texture and restoring the elasticity of mature skin through deep cleansing, combating damage from air pollution and sun exposure.
Key ingredients in anti-wrinkle products
To avoid wrinkles, choose products that contain the following ingredients:
- Hyaluronic acid. A natural component of the skin, it helps retain moisture and stimulates collagen and elastin production. It fights premature aging and reduces wrinkles.
- Retinol. An effective antioxidant that promotes rapid skin renewal and smooths wrinkles.
- Collagen. Responsible for skin strength and elasticity, its natural levels decrease with age, making it essential to replenish collagen.
- Coenzyme Q10. Protects skin from free radicals, which cause premature aging, and smooths wrinkles.
- Vitamin C stimulates collagen production and protects skin cells from damage by free radicals.
Additionally, proper cleansing is vital for aging skin. The best product for gentle, safe cleansing is hydrophilic oil, which won’t damage the skin.
After the age of 40, you can undergo a facial massage every six months. It improves blood circulation, stimulates collagen production, and slows down the aging process.
Don’t forget facial masks - they can be applied 1-2 times a week. Nourishing masks with vitamins A, B, E, and collagen are especially beneficial.
