WHEN TO START USING ANTI-WRINKLE CREAM?
AN ANTI-WRINKLE CREAM, YOU?
Everyone talks about how amazing 20-something skin looks! Isn't that the skin that all the creams in the adverts promise? Yes, it’s true. But tell us: Do you sunbathe? Don't always get the sleep you should? Do you live in a city? Then don't get complacent: 20 is the perfect age to start using an anti-wrinkle treatment.
It's true, you probably don't know what a wrinkle is yet, maybe you don't even have expression lines... however, all experts agree: from the age of 20 it is recommended to start using anti-wrinkle cream as a preventative measure.
And the fact is that aging is due to many factors, such as stress, dehydration, poor diet, lack of sleep, sun exposure and pollution. That’s quite something! The good news is that we can decrease the signs of aging by up to eighty percent, thanks to lifestyle changes and a good anti-aging cream.
All of these skin aggressors result in decreased moisture levels, which is what causes expression lines, loss of elasticity and dull skin. That's why, in addition to investing in a good anti-wrinkle cream, it's critical to ensure that the skin's has optimal moisture levels. How? Drink enough water, eat foods that prevent moisture loss such as fish that is rich in omega 3, yellow vegetables (yellow bell pepper, pumpkin, potato, corn, etc.) and avocado. Also incorporate foods rich in antioxidants and vitamin E such as Brazil nuts, green leafy vegetables, citrus fruits, carrots, tomatoes, watermelon and turmeric into your diet. These foods also help to keep UV radiation damage at bay.
When to start using an anti-wrinkle cream?
It’s never too early to start thinking about using an anti-aging repair treatment to prevent the appearance of expression lines and premature wrinkles. But when should young people start using anti-wrinkle cream? It’s especially advisable to start in your twenties to keep your skin luminous and supple for as long as possible. The most important thing is to use age-appropriate anti-aging moisturizers, such as Biotherm Skin Oxygen anti-wrinkle cream, specially formulated for young skin in urban environments.
WHAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING WHEN CHOOSING AN ANTI-WRINKLE CREAM? WHAT SHOULD WE LOOK OUT FOR?
All quality anti-wrinkle creams contain nourishing facial moisturizers that plump and hydrate the face. A well-hydrated complexion is less likely to develop expression lines or have an uneven tone. If your skin is prone to spots and blemishes, choose products that allow the epidermis to breathe to avoid clogged pores.
The Skin Oxygen Cooling Gel range contains chlorella algae extract, the most chlorophyll-rich algae, together with Biotherm's star ingredient, Life PlanktonTM, which repairs the skin, provides a smooth and moisturized texture, and helps fight the first signs of aging.
It’s important to invest in a SPF moisturizer to protect the skin all year round from UV rays, which are largely responsible for the aging process. It’s the best anti-wrinkle cream there is. For touch-ups with SPF (especially useful at the beach), the innovative Skin Oxygen Wonder is a luminous, non-sticky, easy-to-use anti-pollution and antioxidant solution.
For extra hydration and to prevent early signs of aging, you can use Life Plankton™ Essence, Biotherm's star essence, as a primer. Its anti-aging formula reactivates the skin's vital functions. Its antioxidant qualities also protect the skin from external aggressions such as pollution and UV rays.
AND WHEN WE TURN THIRTY?
For women in their thirties and beyond, it is advisable to invest in an anti-wrinkle cream that is even more protective. After cleansing, we need a treatment that hydrates and repairs the skin at the deepest level, such as Life PlanktonTM Essence. Its lightweight formula is perfect for all ages and enhances the effect of the other ingredients. Then apply an antioxidant serum and follow with a nourishing anti-aging cream with SPF. Special attention should also be paid to the delicate eye contour area. There are specific serums that work to remove expression lines and dark circles under the eyes. The result? A more open, luminous and radiant complexion.
Finally, it is advisable to invest in a night serum or mask, which will nourish the skin while you sleep. Remember that this is when nutrients are best absorbed.
