Mature skin requires us to treat it adequately and with respect. Apart from that, mature skin needs to be treated with substances known for handling free radicals – once you start using them, the fight for youthful-looking and beautiful skin beauty begins. Would you like to enjoy having young skin for long? Learn what three ingredients are worth being introduced into your daily beauty rituals. Here is the ABC of beautiful and youthful skin.
THE ALPHABET OF BEAUTIFUL SKIN
A like Antioxidants, Anti-ageing and Vitamin A
Mature skin care depends on taking decisive measures that don’t only prevent wrinkles, discolorations and skin dehydration but also protect from the adverse effect causes by external factors, oxidative stress, toxins and smog. Moreover, mature skin care should also focus on reducing the existing wrinkles. Fine lines can be removed due to vitamin A, which is also known as retinol. Make sure that your skin receives a daily portion of vitamin A that is purely 100% retinol, not its derivatives (retinoids) – apply it at bedtime. When it comes to morning care, you should use a sunscreen with high sun protection filter (at least SPF 30). What about antioxidants? Try to find face creams or serums containing white tea or argan oil. Introducing them to your beauty ritual for mature skin will be nothing but beneficial.
B-group Vitamins
Reportedly, B-group vitamins are commonly neglected – we don’t consume them enough. However, as it’s been proven, B-group vitamins make the core of effective skin care, including mature skin. Why are they so important? For example, apart from being beneficial for skin, they also positively influence hair and nails. Therefore, if you have noticed that your eyelashes seem to be weaker, if your nails tend to break and if your face skin doesn’t look good (is dull, got flabby and lost its suppleness) then it’s a sign that your body lacks B-group vitamins. You must start introducing them to your body either through eating the right food products or applying beauty products. The truth is, mature skin needs almost every vitamin that belongs to B-group, therefore make sure that you supply your skin with thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, pantothenic acid, pyridoxine, biotin and folic acid. All of the acids won’t let your skin get older but influence its appearance positively.
Vitamin C
Being the most potent antioxidant, vitamin C is labeled as the vitamin of youth. It knows how to take care of skin at all ages. But when it comes to mature skin, vitamin C is responsible for delivering the brightening up effect – this vitamin deals with all types of discolorations therefore all pigmentation marks that appeared on skin after summer should vanish – providing you treat skin with vitamin C, of course. Moreover, vitamin C deals with free radicals, delays skin ageing processes and improves resilience. Adult acne also disappears because vitamin C leaves skin stronger, so its self-regeneration processes boost. It’s important to use only the highest quality vitamin C because otherwise it oxidizes before reaching deepest skin layers. Therefore, if you’re looking for some skincare product containing vitamin C, check its INCI for 3-0-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid because this is the best form of 100% pure vitamin C that is modified for advanced skin care.
A good day face serum with vitamin C and retinol applied at bedtime are the best friends of mature skin. Add some sunscreens and keep cleansing your face thoroughly (best if with natural oils) and your face will never look tired or dull – it will never reveal your age!
