Now that you have entered your 40’s, you need to show an extra concern for your skin. If you are a big time smoker, forget all of that–smoking , alcohol, drugs and everything. Marriage, kids, relationships, workload, there is already enough to manage, and you are left with very little time to care for yourself. If you are too late and your skin is already very dull and wrinkled, talk to your dermatologist or follow these anti-aging skin care tips regularly:
Cleansing, Toning, Moisturizing
Like in 30’s, the lines of movement between your brows and around your eyes and mouth don’t disappear easily in your 40s. The estrogen level narrows in your 40’s, making skin dryer. Therefore, you need to add moisturizers that have ingredients to help in collagen-building.
-
Cleanse your face using non-foaming cleanser that does not dry up fast. Use gentle face cleansing brush to remove dead skin cells from your face.
-
Moisturize your face with creamy moisturizers that do not leave skin dry. Use a moisturizer containing high glycerin and hyaluronic acid to help skin retain moisture.
SPF’s are Must
In your 40’s, damage caused by the sun is highly visible on your skin. Use SPF 15 or more, to prevent further damage. Make sure your sunscreens and other anti-aging skin care products contain SPF and antioxidants to fight free radicals and reverse the aging effects.
Must have Ingredients to Add in Your Daily Routine
Retinol or Vitamin A and peptides are two important ingredients that are must in your daily use of anti aging skin care products. If you haven’t yet added these ingredients, then you must do it as early as possible. Peptides help in rebuilding collagen, especially when combined with skin texture improving retinoids like retinol. You must go for serums, to get both ingredients in one.
Get Your Beauty Sleep
Getting a proper sleep overnight for atleast 7 hours is best thing you can do as natural anti-aging skin care regimen. Sleeping properly is very essential for our body for repairing damage from trauma and toxins that we are exposed to in the day. If you have slept enough in the night, you wake up glowing in the morning, as it relieves the stress levels.
Keep Yourself Hydrated
In order to retain moisture, a diet rich in fruits and vegetables is another natural anti-aging skincare regimen you must follow, as it provides skin with essential vitamins and nutrients necessary to keep it hydrated and help repair itself. Drinking plenty of water to keep skin hydrated, healthy and looking younger is simple routine to follow.
Looking young forever is not easy, you have to follow a strict routine everyday to keep yourself fit and healthy. To look beautiful from outside you need to be at peace inside, so de-stress yourself in anyway — yoga is the best option to do that. Love yourself, love the skin you are in and you are perfect to go on. Moreover, follow the aforementioned natural anti-aging skincare tips honestly and you are good to go always.
