As we age, it is inevitable that the skin will lose firmness and elasticity. Therefore, to avoid premature aging of the skin, after the age of 30, we must add anti-aging creams to our beauty routine. These help nourish and soften expression lines and slow down the appearance of the first wrinkles.
But what are the most effective anti-aging creams on the market? The first thing of all is to recognize that a cream is not better because it is advertised more times on television and that there are many different anti-aging creams, therefore, we must look for the one that best suits our skin type and our age.
Oily skin forms a protective lipid film quickly, which is why the pores can be affected by excess sebum. If your skin is oily, it is advisable that you use anti-wrinkle creams whose oil content is low and that contain collagen and an exfoliant to eliminate dead cells.
On the contrary, if your skin is dry, it requires constant hydration to stay fresh and healthy. Choose creams with hyaluronic acid, collagen or amino acids; key components to preserve the smoothness of the skin.
In the case of combination skin, choosing an anti-wrinkle cream becomes complicated, because most anti-aging treatments are designed for dry or oily skin. If your skin is combination, you may accumulate shine or impurities in the T zone, but need hydration in the rest of the face. This combination of factors complicates the choice of product.
Although it is recommended that you take care of your skin as soon as possible, preventively, from the age of 30 it is important to pamper your skin daily, if we want to slow down the appearance of the first signs of aging. Include an SPF50 sunscreen in your daily care routine that includes peptides, vitamin C and Niacinamide. And most important of all, add glycolic acid to your night routine, you will notice that your skin looks brighter and improves its texture and consistency.
With menopause and the decrease in estrogen, our skin stops synthesizing collagen and becomes dehydrated, loses firmness, and wrinkles and spots intensify. The skin's needs change and therefore we must modify the beauty routine by adding ingredients appropriate to the most advanced signs of aging. Hyaluronic acid, retinol and vitamin C are perfect for boosting the creation of new healthy cells.
After the age of 60, the skin loses even more density and becomes more fragile and dry. Ceramides are fatty molecules that help nourish, repair and recover the thickness of the dermis. Include ceramides in your daily routine if you want your skin to feel firmer and tighter.
