Skin care for every age


Skin care for every ageTodays topic is Skin care for every age

What we put on our skin as we age has to change as we age so we are looking at Skin care for every age

As we age, our skin changes.  we are going to have a look at Skin care for every age.
What worked in your 20s won’t be doing you any favors in your  30s  or 40s. For most of us  the goal is to maintain a youthful, dewy glow well into our golden years, and look just as radiant every decade in between,  so therefore you  need to tailor your skin care regimen to the number of candles on your birthday  cake.
When  you are in your 20′s  – your  goal is to preserve and protect your skin especially if  you are partying weekends, drinking too much, pulling all-nighters and basking in the sun without sunscreen. There may well be  some e lingering acne from the teen years as well.  But hard living comes at a cost, though: fine lines can start to creep up in the second half of your 20s. To stave them off and counteract your skin sins, it’s important to start a consistent skin care routine that involves SPF.  Your ideal daily  skin  care routine in your 20′s should be ;
  • Foaming cleanser
  • A light moisturiser with a spf 15 or above
  • Possibly a spot treatment
  • And a night serum

When  you are in your 30′s -  Skin discoloration caused by sun damage or melasma (aka the mask of pregnancy that can also be caused by birth control), and fine lines are  two of your biggest skin challenges. At this point, you need to start exfoliating regularly because skin only exfoliates naturally every 35 days as opposed to every 14 when you were in your  20s.
  • Use a cleanser that removes makeup and lightly exfoliates,
  • Remember to use  an eye cream both day and night to hydrate the skin around the eyes and increase suppleness
  • Use a daily  moisturiser with a spf 15 or above during the day
  • And a thicker night cream at night.
When  you are in your 40′s
In your 40s, expression lines between your brows and around your eyes and mouth don’t disappear like they did in your 30s. as your estrogen level is tapering off  so your skin will become dryer. You may notice your  neck and décolleté area looks a bit  crepey as well. All this means is that  you’ll need to add moisture and collagen-building ingredients like peptides, to your skin care routine.
  • Use a non foaming ,non drying  cleanser .
  • Use SPF daily to prevent further damage and choose a product that contains antioxidants to fight free radicals and help reverse some of the damage.
  • Retinoids and peptides are two ingredient groups that you should add into your routine if you haven’t already. Peptides can help rebuild collagen, especially when used in combination with skin texture-improving retinoids like retinol
  • Use a moisturizer that has a high level of glycerin or hyaluronic acid to help skin retain the moisture it needs.
When  you are in your 50′s +
Lots of moisture,is really all you can do, buy products that have the right type of ingredients to keep your skin hydrated, products that contain peptides, retinoids, or alpha hydroxy or amino acids, if non of this is working for you. Why not try microcurrent facials to help your body boost your collagen levels failing that speak to a   dermatologist  about laser treatments and other non-invasive or invasive skin rejuvenation options.
No one likes the effects  of ageing, but we can slow it down by changing our skin care routine and our diet and have a healthier life style. We hope the information about Skin care for every age has shed of light on what you need to do.
