How to choose a face cream after 35 years

After 35 years, the amount of collagen in the skin gradually begins to decline. As a result, the rate of manifestation of age-related changes for each woman is different, because it depends on serious factors: genetics, care and lifestyle. Therefore, at 35, women can look different.

On the packaging of such a cream, as a rule, there is a marking “35+”, “anti-aging” or “anti-aging”, which means that about 30 components are concentrated in the composition. These funds are distinguished by more complex and effective formulas, because they have invested numerous studies and unique patented complexes. Anti-aging face cream must be chosen correctly – according to the type of aging of your skin. Given the principles of change, the following main types of skin aging can be distinguished:

Perhaps the most common types of skin aging are fine lines and gravity. Therefore, we dwell on them in a little more detail.

For fine wrinkled type with lost skin tone and an oval face that still retains definition, choose skin care labeled: “anti-wrinkle”, “to increase elasticity”, or “smoothing”. Such products contain fast-acting molecules of substances such as: retinol, vitamin C (of different concentrations), hyaluronic acid, peptides, antioxidants, etc.

For gravity type a cream with the following notes is suitable: “restoration of the oval of the face”, “increase in skin density”. As a rule, they should contain peptides, hyaluronic acid, fruit acids. In any case, do not forget about the use of sunscreen for the face, as any type of aging skin is prone to the formation of pigmentation.

Consider the key components that should be included in 35+ creams:

hyaluronic acid – a polysaccharide, a moisturizing component that simultaneously fills and retains moisture in skin cells. Helps the skin to be more resistant to aging processes, smoothes wrinkles. Ideal helper for dry type.

Antioxidants – Neutralizers of free radicals. They normalize the processes of skin regeneration, protect against age-related changes, reduce pigmentation, and improve the tone of the face. Popular representatives of the species are: vitamin C, vitamin E, resveratrol, ferulic acid.

Collagen – instant lifting component that improves skin tone and moisture level. In turn, the component can be of plant or animal origin.

Peptides are protein molecules made up of amino acids. They act in the deepest layers of the epidermis, filling in the “gaps”, thereby providing density and elasticity to the skin. May be natural or synthetic.

retinol (vitamin A) – an active anti-aging component responsible for cell renewal and collagen production. Smoothes the skin, brightens hyperpigmentation, evens out skin tone, reduces acne and post-acne.

Alpha hydroxy acids (AHA) – are contained in fruit acids and are designed to provide several functions at once: exfoliating, moisturizing, anti-inflammatory, whitening and antioxidant on skin cells in the stratum corneum. The most common AHAs are: lactic, glycolic, malic, citric, and mandelic.

Niacinamide (Vitamin B3, PP) – a unique component that promotes rejuvenation and effective fight against acne. Repairs damaged skin barrier function, reduces moisture loss and improves skin elasticity.

Plant extracts – natural biostimulants, can be presented directly in the form of extracts or oils. The effectiveness of these components has been tested for centuries. They can be: aloe vera, green tea, ginseng, olive oil, etc.

SPF filters – special components that absorb and scatter ultraviolet radiation exerted on the skin. Direct “defenders” for any type, especially for aging skin from unwanted pigmentation. In turn, sun filters are physical and chemical.

Expert Opinion

Anna Sergukova, dermatologist-cosmetologist of the TsIDK clinic network:

– The first age-related changes in the skin appear from about 25 years old, but visually they do not yet manifest themselves strongly. But already after 30-35 years, the processes of skin aging begin to work more rapidly. And even any external and internal factors greatly affect its condition. But how can you help your skin resist aging and look young? Anna Sergukova, dermatologist-cosmetologist of the TsIDK clinic network, will tell you what means will save the skin of the face and return the former freshness.

With age, signs of photo and chronoaging appear on the face: age spots, spider veins (telangiectasias), uneven skin color, fine wrinkles, loss of tone and elasticity, swelling. Of course, this should be taken into account when choosing a cream that would help to cope with these problems. Moreover, it is necessary to understand your skin type and take into account the presence of additional problems such as pigmentation, enlarged pores, acne, etc. Up to about 30 years old, the usual good hydration is enough for the skin, and after 30-35 years, you should turn to anti -age. The indicated age on the cream packaging must be treated very carefully, since the combination of components and concentration is very different. What should be purchased? The “must have” of every woman at this age is day and night cream, eye cream. The day cream provides moisture and protection from external factors, and the night cream helps to regenerate the skin and nourishes it while a person sleeps. If there is a problem with wrinkles and pigmentation, then sunscreen will save here. It can also be used at an earlier age.

When choosing professional products, choose trusted brands, as such facial products have a high-quality composition, safe preservatives, and higher concentrations. Therefore, from here comes a greater percentage of penetration into the skin. The components in the composition of the product complement each other and enhance each other’s action. Most often, anti-aging creams are sold in jars with thick glass walls or in bottles with dispensers to ensure minimal access to light and air, protection from oxidation and the penetration of microorganisms. The storage method and expiration date are indicated on the packaging, it is imperative to follow these recommendations.

It is very important to pay attention to the composition of the product. If it contains oils, then they must be natural (for example, almond or olive). Mineral oil, which is part of petroleum products, can be added to low-quality facial products. Also, most cosmetics are flavored. People who have allergic reactions should pay attention to this and purchase fragrance-free creams. Some creams may contain carcinogens and are good stabilizers and UV filters. However, it is necessary to take into account their quantity in the content of the product – it should be minimal, since these chemical compounds are dangerous and poisonous to humans in large quantities. The most important thing is that the cream contains not alcohol, but propylene glycol. And a few words about what main components should be included in anti-aging products: retinol (vitamin A), antioxidants (resveratrol, florentin, ferulic acid, vitamin E, vitamin C (ascorbic acid), alpha hydroxy acids (glycolic, lactic, mandelic , malic acid), hyaluronic acid, niacinamide (vitamin B3, PP), herbal ingredients.
