The first signs of skin aging are different for everyone. And although it is impossible to completely exclude their appearance, it is quite possible to choose the right care. What do cosmetologists recommend, and is it justified to use anti-aging products at a young age?
The appearance of signs of aging can be stopped. We have clarified this. Thanks to the ads, magazine articles, and shop assistants.
However, all the more complex formulas of creams, the intricate reasoning of beauty experts and amateurs from the Internet have the opposite effect: fear, distrust, confusion. How not to get confused in ingenious means? Which of the components are more active and aggressive than others? Which is better – fruit acids or cell complexes?
The result is complete confusion. Some girls at the age of 20 sweep away anti-wrinkle creams and ask the beautician to inject Botox. Others, even at 40, are afraid of serum with the word “anti-aging” on the package, refusing to recognize age and the problems associated with it. Still others are afraid of chemical components.
Grimaces of age
Not everyone is equal before the aging process. Much depends on genetics, lifestyle, habits and the ability to take care of yourself. And also on the nature of the person. But although every woman shows signs of age in her own way, there are patterns.
For example, the zones of the first wrinkles are determined by the most frequent emotions. In people who are constantly preoccupied with something, the first lines appear on the forehead. “Crow’s feet” in the corners of the eyes indicate cheerfulness. The crease between the eyebrows is not in vain called the “wrinkle of the proud”. Dissatisfaction and disappointment leave nasolabial folds as a memory.
The pattern, combination and severity of wrinkles is different for everyone. But you should not bring the situation to the point that people recognize the features of your character from them.
The woman must remain a mystery. And modern anti-aging products will help with this.
Right priorities
Skin aging cannot be completely prevented. Nature will take over. But later – if you give the cells the right substances, energy and protection. The main thing is that the tool matches the condition and needs.
Ask yourself the question: “What worries me more?” Some are embarrassed by wrinkles, others are concerned about a “floated” oval or pigmentation.
A distinction should be made between appearance and biological age. There are women over 50 whose skin retains amazing smoothness, and, conversely, those who already look older than their peers at the age of 30.
“Today, girls think about preserving their youth earlier than their mothers,” says Véronique Delvin, responsible for Lancôme’s R&D.
In fact, natural ingredients are more likely to cause an allergic reaction.
That is why a year ago, this brand, and then the rest of the beauty market leaders, launched lines for young skin. They are based on plant extracts and vitamins that moisturize and protect the skin. At this age, they are quite enough. Although not everyone understands this.
“I buy intensive products for 40- and 50-year-olds to minimize the risk of aging,” admits 25-year-old Yulia.
But in fact, until the age of 30, the skin is self-sufficient. Active components will be wasted. And the cells will become “lazy” and will require stronger stimulants.
Should I be afraid of allergies?
From the age of 30, the metabolism in cells slows down, their renewal is inhibited, and the production of fibers decreases. If you notice a deterioration in the condition of the skin, connect stimulants, for example, with AHA acids.
Closer to 40, the oval of the face of many loses its clarity. It’s time for lifting products. And here it is worth mentioning the other extreme – the fear of active components.
“I buy only organic products without parabens and mineral oils. I read from one blogger that they can cause allergies and even cancer,” says 45-year-old Christina.
In fact, natural ingredients are more likely to cause an allergic reaction. And the harm of parabens and mineral oils is greatly exaggerated.
Official science has proven that parabens are quickly absorbed, metabolized and excreted from the body. They cause a reaction only in people with a rare form of allergy. At the same time, parabens remain one of the most effective preservatives.
Mineral oil, in turn, protects the skin from moisture loss. It is, of course, a petrochemical product, but it goes through a multi-stage purification system. And unlike technical, does not contain harmful impurities.
However, today you can find many effective remedies for any age without these components. The main thing is that you see the result from the chosen care.
