You look in the mirror every day. But there’s one day that you probably remember: when you first noticed those little lines. That crease starting to form around the corner of each eye. That stress line that’s formed across your forehead. Those ‘smile’ wrinkles around your mouth.
Ageing is a natural part of life, but this doesn’t make it easier to accept. For some women, wrinkles just seem to suddenly appear. For others, it’s a more gradual process. But the age-old question is when do I start using anti-ageing products.
You’re probably thinking to yourself, is it too late?
Good news. It’s not. Start protecting your skin, now. Two of the most important ways you can keep your skin looking great is to clean it well… and hydrate it.
UV radiation from the sun is the main culprit of ageing skin. But pollution and everyday exposure to toxins come in a close second. All that dirt and grime that naturally finds its way onto your skin, especially if you’re a city chick, must be thoroughly washed off.
Be extra careful of the skin around the eyes as it’s thinner and more fragile that the rest of your body. Take preventative measures to gently cleanse your eyes and remove inflammation-inducing impurities and toxins.
Our new Illumaboost protects your skin from urban pollution and free radicals. It acts as a barrier against environmental stressors, which many people don’t think about. If you’ve ever ran a damp face towel over your face and wiped off black specks, you’ll know what mean.
To hydrate and nourish your face, use our day and night creams. The pair targets the signs of ageing, as well as the underlying causes. Acting as a powerful antioxidant, our creams boost the cell renewal process and mimic the skin’s natural age-fighting properties. By moisturising your skin 24/7, it fights the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, discolouration, uneven skin texture, enlarged pores and sagging skin.
Are anti-ageing products enough?
There are a range of external things you can do to maintain that youthful complexion. Integrate as many of these tips as possible into your day:
- Wear sunscreen or use a foundation that has SPF cover in it
- Apply self-tanner rather than laying out in the sun
- Avoid smoking & keep alcohol consumption low
- Eat a healthy, well-balanced diet
- Exercise every day
- Wash your face after working out
- Don’t use products that burn or irritate your skin.
It’s never too late to benefit from healthy skin habits.
