Learn the secrets for great skin at any age
Skin care is essential no matter how young or old you are. Maintaining healthy, radiant skin not only boosts self-esteem but is also crucial for overall health. As we age, specific skin care is needed to combat the effects of time and the environment. Not in the sense that we should condemn aging, but to do it in a graceful way, avoiding damage and diseases.
Discover the importance of skin care at any age and how to keep it healthy and beautiful.
Prevention comes first: make the most of your 20s.
During your twenties, skin care is crucial for laying a solid foundation for long-term skin health and creating a sustainable routine. Recommended ingredients for this decade include hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, and vitamin A.
Hyaluronic acid provides deep hydration, essential for keeping the skin soft and flexible. Vitamin C acts as a powerful antioxidant that fights free radicals and sun damage, promoting a radiant and even complexion.
On the other hand, Vitamin A is known to stimulate cell renewal, prevent premature signs of aging, and improve skin texture. For many people struggling with breakouts, Vitamin A can help balance the skin and reduce congestion. A fun fact is that Vitamin A is one of the few scientifically proven active ingredients to slow down skin aging.
These ingredients are beneficial in your twenties as they help maintain youthful, healthy skin while facing daily stress and environmental impact.
As for ideal textures, light serums and non-comedogenic moisturizing lotions are recommended to avoid clogging pores and maintain balanced, fresh skin.
We recommend:
Perfect C™ Serum 17% + Remarkable Retinal™ Night Cream from MyChelle Dermaceutical.
This multi-tasking Perfect C™ Serum provides powerful antioxidants, anti-pollution, and anti-aging benefits while the night cream works overnight to improve firmness and brightness.
Don't let anyone tell you that your 30s are too late to take care of your skin!
In your thirties, skincare focuses on prevention and protection and addressing early signs of aging. Recommended ingredients for this decade include peptides, antioxidants, and gentle exfoliating AHAs, besides the hero ingredients you were using in your 20s.
Peptides are essential building blocks for the skin, helping to stimulate collagen and elastin production, promoting firmness and skin elasticity. Antioxidants like vitamin E and green tea protect the skin from oxidative stress and prevent damage caused by free radicals, maintaining a youthful appearance.
Gentle exfoliating acids, such as AHAs, promote cell renewal and improve skin luminosity. These ingredients are beneficial for treating fine lines and lack of radiance.
As for ideal textures, we recommend nourishing moisturizing creams and concentrated serums to provide deep hydration and better skin penetration.
We recommend:
Fruit Enzyme Cleanser from MyChelle Dermaceuticals. It is formulated with powerful multi-fruit AHAs and Antioxidants to purify pores and improve the skin’s texture for a radiant complexion.
LL Regeneration Revitalizing Day and Night Cream which supports cell renewal and has an oil-restoring and moisturizing effect on dry, poorly moisturized skin
Skincare in your 40s. This decade is crucial: don't miss out on it!
Skincare in your 40s is extremely important to keep your face and body healthy and radiant. At this age, we recommend adding ingredients such as vegan collagen, ceramides, and nourishing butters.
Vegan collagen can work as a booster to give you younger-looking skin. It promotes skin elasticity and reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. It is also known to be more hydrating than its counterpart, animal collagen.
These ingredients are beneficial at this stage of life as they help combat loss of firmness and elasticity, as well as dark spots and wrinkles (yes, vitamin C should still be part of your routine!). They also promote cell renewal and stimulate collagen production, contributing to maintaining younger and more radiant skin.
As for ideal textures for this decade, we recommend rich moisturizing creams and balms with hydrating and moisturizing properties which will help restore the skin barrier. These textures will combat dryness and keep the skin soft and flexible.
We recommend:
NATUCOLLAGEN Collection from ANNEMARIE BORLIND. This collection harnesses the power of naturally extracted botanical collagen from maize, soy, and wheat proteins, combined with protein from white lupine, to strengthen the skin's structure and improve its elasticity.
Ceramide Vital Fluid from ANNEMARIE BORLIND: A combination of natural active ingredients from ceramide, the yeast protein vitacell and vitamins C and E noticeably reduces the appearance of wrinkles and increases the moisture retaining ability of the skin.
Radiating beautiful skin at any age!
Skincare for those aged 50 and over is essential to maintain healthy, radiant skin as we age. During this stage of life, it's recommended to use ingredients such as firming peptides, nourishing oils, hydrators, and Vitamin A.
Firming peptides help improve the skin's firmness and elasticity, while nourishing oils like rosehip oil or argan oil provide deep hydration and help restore the skin barrier. Hydrating ingredients such as hyaluronic acid or squalane help maintain soft and luminous skin without causing irritation, and of course we know the benefits of Vitamin A.
When it comes to ideal textures for this decade, rich facial oils and ultra-hydrating creams are recommended to provide deep nourishment and help restore the skin's radiance and flexibility. These textures will help combat dryness and keep the skin soft and radiant.
We recommend:
Peptide⁺ Anti-Wrinkle Serum from MyChelle Dermaceuticals. This nourishing triple-action formula peptide serum addresses deep lines and wrinkles promoting smoother, younger looking skin.
Supreme Polypeptide Cream from MyChelle Dermaceuticals: This multi-peptide recontouring cream helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
Sunscreen a non-negotiable
It's important to remember that while our skin evolves with age, certain principles remain constant. Protecting your skin from harmful UV rays not only prevents sunburn but also shields it from long-term damage and premature aging.
When it comes to sunscreen, we highly recommend All Good Mineral Sunscreens. Their formulas are crafted with natural, reef-safe ingredients, providing broad-spectrum protection without harmful chemicals. Whether you prefer a lotion, spray, or stick application, All Good has you covered with products that are gentle on the skin and the environment.
Even as we embrace the wisdom that comes with age, the commitment to prevent, protect, and restore our skin remains unwavering. Skincare is not just about correcting; it's about consistently preventing and nurturing.
Remember that skincare is a personal journey, so it is essential to find products that suit your specific needs. Wishing you healthy and radiant skin at every age!
