Younger Looking Skin at Every Age by Rowena Ireifej

20's Prevent Aging: What we do in our 20's impacts our skin in the future. Use retional based products at night to prevent aging and to minimize pores. Sunscreen is a must during the day. SPF prevents sundamage. We love PCA Retinol Renewal and Fenix Hydrating Suncreen with an SPF 30.



30's Keep the Glow: Even with a good night's rest, you may still appear tired. Under eye issues develop at this age. To disguise under eye issues, find a conclear with a warmer tone. Warmer tones blend better and is less noticable. Try the balm light/medium for day time. To reduce dark circles, dryness, and puffiness use an eye cream that contains kojic acid, licorice, and peptides. For 24 hour care try PCA EyeXcellence, a result driven triple-action eye cream morning and night. Your skin will also get drier at this age. A lack of hydration affects the natural exfoliation process, causing it to slow down, which can make skin look dull. Use a light to mediun moisturizer during the day and a rich hydrating moisturizer at night.

40's Get Even: Age spots, sun spots, and discoloration appears at this age. Add kojic, glycolic or azelaic acid, Vitamin C or hydroquinone to your routine. Products with these active ingredients will lighten and brighten your skin tone. Even out your skin tone with Age Limit by Ultra Dermacine, Pigment gel with Hydroquinone by PCA, or Jan Maini C-Esta and Enlighten lotion.

50's Soften Wrinkles: You may notice that your wrinkles have become more apparent and your skin is drying out. A loss of hormones during menopause affects elasticity, firmness, and moisture levels. Use products that increase collagen production and contain peptides to resolve these issues. Try Advanced Firming complex by Ultra Dermacine or PCA Exlinea for firming. For hydration use Hydrating Vitamin Cream or Jan Marini Age Intervention Cream.

60's Maintain Moisture: Hydrating your skin is extremely important. Oil production disappears at this age. Use a hydrating serum with hylauronic acid and a rich moisturizer to lock in moisture. Try PCA Hydrating Serum and Dermalogica Super Rich.
