Skin Care For Every Age
By Oluwatosin Akande
Want to maintain a youthful glow? Tailor your skin care regimen to your age. Put your best face forward at every age with these suggestions
20s- Most likely prone to acne.
*Use a gentle foaming cleanser.
*Use a moisturiser that has sunscreen during the day.
* Always wash your face before bed. Never sleep with make-up.
* Consume plenty of fruits and vegetables rich in antioxidants, healthy whole grains, lean protein, healthy fats and water.
30s- Skin is prone to sun damage
*Exfoliate regularly.
*Now is the time to visit a spa for a facial.
*Use a non-foaming cleanser and sunblock cream.
*Apply retinoid at night.
*Choose anti-aging products with synergistic, multiple ingredients, antioxidants and vitamin A to help reverse the signs of ageing.
*Use a moisturiser for areas of dryness. Address the neck, chest and backs of the hands as you would your face. These areas can give away your true age!
40s-Skin becomes dryer.
*Use a cleansing brush with a non-foaming cleanser.
*Use Skin Protection Factor daily.
*Use peptides and retinoids to help rebuild your collagen.
*Use a moisturiser that has a high level of glycerine to help your skin retain moisture.
*Visit your dermatologist for prescription-strength topical treatments to target problem areas.
*Choose a cleanser that provides anti-ageing benefits and exfoliates.
*Don’t use bar soap for facial cleansing, it causes skin to get very dry.
50s-Loss of tone, sagging
*Visit a spa regularly for a microdermabrasion and high frequency facial.
*Use a cream cleanser that will hydrate.
*Use a moisturiser that has SPF.
*Apply a peptide rich serum under your SPF daily.
*Use retinol at night only.
*Use petroleum jelly to seal in moisture.
