What’s The Best Age To Begin Skin Care?
Anyone who wants great looking skin needs it, because prevention works so much better than correction. As an esthetician, I find that most women realize the importance of daily moisturizing, but most do not consistently exfoliate and use facial masks. These give you the visual benefit while moisturizing gives you the beneath the surface benefit. .
In your Teens and Twenties, most young women don't see serious signs of aging unless they have been extreme sun worshippers. What you will see is the accumulation of dead skin cells, which equals skin texture that looks uneven and a loss of your healthy, natural, youthful radiance. You'll need to be sure that sun screens are in all your products. If you spend 3 minutes, on your face - twice daily - in 21 days you'll have established a skin care routine and you'll never regret it.
Your THIRTIES will bring skin that begins to look tired and dull, and you'll begin to see tiny lines around your mouth and eyes and if you have oily skin your pores will begin to enlarge. Now you'll need to be sure your moisturizers have anti-oxidants because twice weekly exfoliating and twice daily moisturizing with those anti-oxidants is needed to keep your face and neck, youthful and healthy looking. If you're not using an eye cream, twice daily - you should be.
In your Forties, you body will produce less collagen and elastin which is what supports the moisture in your skins cells and keeps your skin firm. As a result you'll begin to see a lack of firmness which means that those fine lines and wrinkles that appeared in your thirties, will deepen and become wrinkles. Now, lifting and firming or anti-aging are the ingredients you should be looking for in your day and night moisturizers.
When you get to your FIFTIES, no matter what type skin you have, you can count it becoming dryer, especially in cold weather. That loss of moisture means you can add the look and feel of relaxed neck and facial skin to your list of aging symptoms, particularly along your jaw line, and your wrinkles become creases. Therefore, your face and neck will need moisturizers with more hydration and vitamins, along with those anti-aging and firming ingredients.
In your SIXTIES and OLDER, the dark spots appear on your face, neck and hands. Your face and neck will show extreme loss of elasticity. Your relaxed skin will become sagging skin. Your forehead and above the nose creases will become furrows and you'll need to add anti-age spot treatments to the strongest possible lifting and firming additives, in your twice daily skin care regime.
This article describes what you can expect if you get to that age group and are not using skin care at all. Of course a little skin care is better than none, but with the above information you'll know what you need for your skin type and when you need more. Ultimately, using your full twice a day, skin care regimen will pay off with your skin always feeling firmer and looking younger than you really are.
