Stop Doing Things That Make You Look Older!

Hey Beautiful,

Aging is a natural process, of course, and I'm all about 'realistic expectations' when it comes to topical skincare, but there's no reason you have to look older than your age!

Using the right type of hydrating serum, makeup with primer, and exfoliating correctly can offer several anti-aging benefits for individuals over the age of 40.

Here's a breakdown of the benefits of each:

1. Hyaluronic Acid:
   • Hydration: Hyaluronic acid is a powerful humectant that can attract and retain moisture in the skin. As we age, our skin tends to become drier, and hyaluronic acid helps to replenish and lock in moisture, keeping the skin hydrated and plump.
   • Wrinkle reduction: Hyaluronic acid can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by improving the skin's elasticity and firmness. It achieves this by promoting collagen production and supporting the skin's natural repair processes.
   • Skin rejuvenation: By providing deep hydration, hyaluronic acid can give the skin a more youthful and radiant appearance. It can help improve skin tone, texture, and overall complexion, making the skin look healthier and more vibrant.
2. Makeup Primer:
   • Smoother application: As we age, the skin's texture may become uneven or develop fine lines and wrinkles. Using a makeup primer can create a smoother surface for makeup application, filling in fine lines and blurring imperfections. It helps makeup go on more evenly and last longer.
   • Pore minimization: Makeup primers can help minimize the appearance of enlarged pores, which are common concerns as we age. They create a barrier between the skin and makeup, preventing it from settling into pores and making them look less noticeable.
   • Increased longevity: A good makeup primer can help extend the wear time of your makeup, reducing the need for touch-ups throughout the day. It helps keep your foundation, concealer, and other makeup products in place for a longer period.
3. Exfoliating:
   • Cell turnover: As we age, the process of cell turnover slows down, leading to a dull and lackluster complexion. Exfoliating helps remove dead skin cells from the surface of the skin, promoting cell renewal and revealing fresher, more radiant skin underneath.
   • Improved texture:Exfoliation can help improve the texture of the skin, making it smoother and softer. It can reduce the appearance of rough patches, fine lines, and wrinkles, giving the skin a more youthful and refined look.
   • Enhanced product absorption: By removing the buildup of dead skin cells, exfoliating allows other skincare products to penetrate deeper into the skin. This maximizes their effectiveness and ensures you get the most out of your skincare routine.

While there's not a one size fits all approach to anything there are definite steps you can take for better results as your skin ages for a more youthful appearance.
