How to Keep Your Skin Glowing at Any Age
Ageless beauty isn’t about reversing time; it’s about maintaining a glowing, healthy, and radiant complexion as we grow older. Our skin tells a story, and taking consistent care of it ensures that it continues to look vibrant at any age.
Glowing Skin Essentials by Decade
In Your Teens and 20s: Prevention is Key
Establishing a good skincare routine early on makes all the difference in the long run. Prioritise a high-quality glowing skincare routine with a daily SPF to protect from sun damage. Look for products that help brighten your skin, such as a glowing skin cream. Vitamin C Moisturisers will brighten the skin and improve your complexion as well as protecting your skin from environmental factors. By building a habit of consistency in your skincare regimen now, you’ll reap the benefits later in life.
In Your 30s: Start Retinol and Hydration
As you enter your 30s, your skin starts showing the early signs of aging. This is the perfect time to introduce Retinol into your routine to encourage cell turnover and prevent fine lines. Hydration should also be a focus with products like the Environ Revival Masque, which revitalises the skin and promotes a radiant glow. Additionally, using a glowing skin night serum such as the Serience Night Cream can help the skin repair itself overnight.
In Your 40s and Beyond: Hydration and Skin-Boosting Serums
Maintaining skin hydration is essential as we age. Incorporate skin-plumping serums, such as Hydra Intensive Hydrating Serum, to keep the skin moisturised and glowing. Supplementing your routine with products like Skin Vit C and the Skin collagen support can support the skin from within, promoting a radiant complexion. And of course don’t forget treatments for lines under the eyes and fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth, such as the 3D Synergy Filler Crème.
Skincare From Within
Nourishing your skin from within is as important as what you apply topically. Skin omegas act as an internal moisturiser, keeping the skin soft and hydrated. Supplements such as Skin Vit C help brighten the complexion, while collagen supplements (one of my personal favourites) improve skin elasticity. Add antioxidant-rich foods to your diet, such as green tea, red grapes, strawberries, dark chocolate, and nuts, to boost your skin’s natural glow.
Consistency is the Secret to Glowing Skin
Consistency is key to maintaining youthful, radiant skin. In addition to applying glowing skin creams and masques regularly, your skincare regimen can benefit from the use of tools. Microneedling helps serums penetrate deeper into the skin, enhancing their effectiveness. For an at-home spa experience, try a gua sha. Keeping it chilled in the fridge will make it feel like a luxurious massage while improving circulation and keeping your skin toned.
Sleep and Self-Care
It may sound simple, but one of the best things you can do for glowing skin is to get enough sleep. Aim for 7-8 hours a night, giving your skin the chance to repair itself. Combat stress by practicing self-care rituals that enhance your skincare routine and of course a positive mindset and self love are the keys to radiant skin.
