Skin aging
As we get older, the natural production of collagen also decreases. Collagen is a natural protein that keeps the skin supple and firm. When collagen production decreases, lines and wrinkles appear more quickly. That is a natural process. It is only nice that you are getting older, of course! Still, there are harmful factors that can unnecessarily accelerate the aging of your skin. Many people would like to prevent that.
What causes your skin to age?
There are various factors that influence how our skin looks as we age. One important factor is UV radiation. UV can, among other things, cause lines and spots to appear and make the skin sag and lose elasticity. Another culprit is stress. A lot of stress disrupts the regenerative processes in your skin, causing skin aging to progress faster. Your diet also affects your skin. If you don't eat a varied diet, you can develop a dull and tired appearance. Smoking and drinking alcohol also have a negative impact on the skin.
How do anti-aging serums & creams work?
Many people use anti-age products to give their skin a more youthful appearance. These products are developed to revitalize the skin. They contain collagen or ingredients that stimulate collagen production. Or they protect you from sunlight (with SPF) or from harmful influences in general (through antioxidants).
Anti-age products can be serums, but also creams. Serums are thinner and more fluid. They often contain one active ingredient, such as retinol, and are used between cleansing and moisturizing the skin. Creams are often the last step in your care routine. They are richer, heavier and provide long-lasting hydration. Especially useful if you have drier skin - which becomes more common as you age. You can also combine a serum and a cream.
Who can use anti-age products?
The stereotype is that mostly older women use anti-age products. Men generally have thicker skin with more collagen production. As a result, they experience the first signs of skin aging later. Still, anyone regardless of gender can use an anti-age product. Some say you can't start early enough - collagen production already declines by age 25...
