Say NO to Wrinkles! Mature Skin Care Routine

Hi, girls!

Wrinkles… We all hate them but each of us will have them eventually. Why should you know how to take good care of mature skin and what to do to slow down ageing processes? Discover products that will keep your face young-looking!

How do you know your skin is ageing?

If you notice more and more discolorations, dry skin and irritations, the ageing process is in progress! The first signs are so-called mimic wrinkles (crow’s feet, forehead wrinkles and fine lines around the lips). The skin loses elasticity, a double chin occurs, neck skin gets flabby – the first signs of ageing.

Who ages most quickly?

Wrinkles and discolorations appear most quickly in people with blue eyes and light skin tone. Why? They’re most exposed to the sunlight. Those with dark skin tone don’t have to worry about such problems. What’s more, 50% of people who have undergone plastic surgery at the age of 35-50 will grow old very quickly.

How to slow down skin ageing processes?

All you need to do is follow a few simple rules and your face will stay smooth and beautiful long time. Firstly, use UV filter. 30 SPF is enough to protect your skin from the sunlight yet SPF 50 is a perfect protection. You should use sunscreen anytime you leave the house (even in winter). If you’re planning on long sunbathes, take a sunscreen and use it during the day. Apply the product to the skin of your body and face. Spray your hair with UV-enriched oils. Hair also grows old!

What else can you do to prevent ageing? Eat more fruit and vegetables. Cut down on alcohol, cigarettes and processed food. If you have a healthy diet, you deliver vitamins, micro-nutrients and other ingredients essential for proper body function. Nicotine, alcohol, heavy metals and free radicals speed up ageing. So, to keep the skin pretty and healthy, you should avoid stress, get enough sleep and exercise.

What ingredients help you keep young and beautiful looks?

If you want to slow down skin ageing processes, you should use products including retinoid, AHA acids, hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, peptides, ceramides, skin DNA regenerating substances and brightening components. Retinoids and AHA acids smooth the skin, reduce wrinkles and firm up your skin. Hyaluronic acid moisturises whereas peptides and ceramides nourish the skin. Antioxidants destroy free radicals responsible for premature skin ageing.

How to take good care of mature skin? Which treatments to go for?

To enjoy a youthful and healthy skin, you must follow a proper skin care routine. Use moisturising cosmetics every day yet avoid the ones containing dehydrating alcohols. Beauty salons offer firming, smoothing and lightening treatments e.g. microdermabrasion, chemical peel, laser. If you have serious problems with wrinkles or age spots, use botox or hyaluronic acid injections. You can also try plastic surgeries.

I hope I’ve helped and now you know how to take care of mature skin. Take care!
