Skincare at any age is a vital part of our lives. As we age, the fat beneath our skin and surrounding our muscles begins to melt and alter, causing wrinkles and creases to appear on our skin. Dr Akriti Gupta, Cosmetic Dermatologist at Jivisha Clinic, New Delhi shares some important tips and a lowdown on why vitamin C is a must-have.
As we age, our skin produces less elastin, collagen, and organic lipids, resulting in drier and less supple skin. When a person is in their late 30s or early 40s, poor skin care habits they developed when they were younger start to show. As a result, age spots, wrinkles, and fine lines begin to appear on the skin. After age 40, a skincare regimen that includes both curative and preventative steps is ideal. This means that it should address the current issues while preventing further damage to the skin.
Following are some skincare recommendations for people over the age of 40:
Importance of Vitamin C
Consuming vitamin C in any form beyond a certain age is important, especially for your skin. Include a vitamin C serum with antioxidants in your morning regimen. When you include vitamin C in your skincare routine, your skin will appear more radiant and will be protected from free radicals and UV ray damage. This powerful antioxidant is frequently included in moisturisers, oils, serums, and face cleansers. Antioxidants found in abundance in vitamin C aid to combat free radicals (these can trigger several diseases, including cancer). While anti-ageing creams with retinol, hyaluronic acid, and peptides can be used at night, serums with the same compounds can be used throughout the day.
When purchasing a vitamin C serum, look for dark bottles, as vitamin C degrades when exposed to light or air, and dark glass bottles help keep the vitamin stable and effective.
Conclusion: It is always suggested to build a skin care regimen that works for your skin as early as possible, to help maintain the skin and give a youthful glow. The above handful tips are a good way to start building a skincare routine.
