The Best Ages to Start Skin Care
We all know skincare is important, but what our skin needs changes throughout our life. There are a few skincare products that are essential throughout your life such as a really good moisturizer, scheduled facials Newark DE, and a gentle daily cleanser that won’t dry out your face. Do you know what certain products should be added to your routine as you age? Below, the estheticians at Premier Spa and Laser Center explain the most important skincare products to have in your arsenal in your teens, 20s, 30s, 40s, and beyond.
Teens-
Cleanse thoroughly, once or twice a day. This is the time to learn about your skin type. If you are oily, use foaming or gel cleaners that control oils; if you have dry skin, using a facial moisturizer is a great tool to keep the skin hydrated. Exfoliation is key to combat blackheads, doing so gently once or twice a week will suffice. Stick to a simple regime and refrain from using products that have scents, colors, or other irritants that may cause or worsen acne. If pimples are an issue, have a conversation with your doctor, or visit Premier Spa and Laser Center for acne-treating facials Newark DE.
20’s-
Similar to the steps you were taking in your teens, continue to wash your face once or twice daily, using unscented and non-comedogenic cleansers and moisturizers that are specifically for your skin type. To increase your collagen production, you can gently exfoliate 3-4 times a week after cleansing, and begin paying attention to your diet and exercise. Your skin starts to lose its ability to repair itself in your 20’s so adding retinol, serum, or other anti-aging topical solutions can kickstart your skincare routine. However, it is easy to overload your face with products, which can cause irritation and damage. To grasp what is the best solution for your face, visiting Premier Spa and Laser Center and talking with an experienced esthetician about your skin type can benefit you in many ways.
30’s-
If you haven’t begun a daily skincare routine, now is the time to do it! Grab a gentle cleanser, a hydrating moisturizer, a mineral sunscreen, and follow the steps listed before. If you are looking to add on to the routine you have been completing since your 20’s, grab an alcohol-free toner, an under the eye cream, and a silk pillowcase. Your 30’s are a pivotal time in your life –for you and your skin. If you are starting to notice your face isn’t like it used to be, it may take changing a few steps or ingredients in your skincare recipe to initiate a glow again. Adding more or different serums and retinoids to your daily and weekly skincare routine can up your routine in your 30’s. Vitamin C, Vitamin A, PHA / BHA / AHA, Salicylic Acid, and Hyaluronic Acids are all great places to start. A silk pillowcase is much gentler on your skin by reducing the appearance of wrinkles and they are hypoallergenic, meaning they don’t hold onto allergens such as dust and mold. Scheduling regular facials Newark DE with Premier Spa and Laser Center can help heal any damage and restore moisture to the skin. Your everyday makeup can be boosted to help your skin heal and glow as well. Speaking with one of the experienced estheticians at Premier Spa and Laser Center will be beneficial.
40’s and Beyond-
While you begin to think about anti-aging skincare routines in your 30’s, your 40’s is the time to get serious about them. By our 40’s, our skin turnover rate has slowed to more than double that of our early 20’s, according to Dr. Heather Rogers. Wrinkles are starting to appear out of nowhere, acne may pop up in places you’ve never experienced, and the healing process is seemingly impossible to catch up. Most importantly, begin getting head to toe skin checks, now if not before the age of 40. All of the products you were using in your 30’s, such as a daily cleanser, SPF 30-50, and serums and retinol/retinoids should continue to be applied daily. However, focusing on renewing, moisturizing, protecting, and boosting your skin’s health is important for your skin as you age.
One of the most important skincare ingredients that should never be forgotten is to stay hydrated with as much water as possible! Taking care of your skin is a full-time job. To keep your skin beautiful and glowing in your teens, 20’s, 30’s, and 40’s follow these esthetician-recommended routines.
