-----Caring for Ageing Skin: A Guide to Integrity and Radiance
Supporting ageing skin requires a consistent approach that focuses on protection, hydration, and targeted ingredients to address the natural decrease in collagen and moisture. As skin becomes more fragile, delicate, and dry, a gentle routine with strong sun protection is essential to maintain its integrity.
Essential Daily Skincare Routine
-
Gentle Cleansing: Use a mild, non-drying cleanser (cream, milk, or oil-based are often best) to avoid stripping the skin's natural oils.
-
Daily Sunscreen (SPF 30+): This is the most critical step, as UV exposure is responsible for 80% of visible ageing. Apply a broad-spectrum, high-SPF product daily to prevent further collagen breakdown.
-
Regular Moisturising: Apply a rich cream or ointment daily. Look for key ingredients like glycerin or hyaluronic acid to lock in moisture and diminish the appearance of fine lines.
Targeted Actives:
-
-
Retinol/Retinoids: Key ingredients for stimulating collagen production and reducing the look of fine lines and wrinkles.
-
Vitamin C: Provides essential antioxidant protection against free radicals and helps to brighten age spots.
-
Peptides: Support overall skin structure and elasticity.
-
Key Tips for Mature Skin
-
Avoid Hot Water: Use warm water for washing to prevent excessive skin dryness.
-
Handle Gently: Skip harsh scrubs and use a soft cloth instead to avoid skin irritation.
-
Maintain Consistency: Apply products in a specific, consistent order: Cleanser, Serum, Moisturiser, and then SPF.
Reapply Sunscreen: Reapply every two hours, or more frequently if swimming or sweating.
