Anti-ageing products and when to start using them

Ageing gracefully is a goal for many men and women. The best way to achieve a smooth, wrinkle free complexion when we’re older is to stick to a solid skincare routine for smart prevention. Investing in anti-ageing products early on means that you can avoid potentially harmful cosmetic procedures, such as Botox and derma fillers, when signs of ageing start to make an appearance.

So, how early should we start taking these preventative measures to ensure that our skin looks young and fresh for longer? As signs of ageing can start to show as early as 25, starting to protect your skin early on gives you the best chance of having youthful looking skin when you’re much older. After all, preventing visible skin ageing is less expensive and much easier than treating it once it’s taken hold.

There are plenty of things that you can do to look after your skin in your 20s, 30s, 40s and beyond. Protecting your skin from too much sun exposure is vitally important, as this is probably the worst offender when it comes to premature ageing of the skin. However, there’s also a hero ingredient rising in popularity amongst the skincare world, and it’s the only anti-ageing ingredient that’s proven to work - retinol.

 

What is retinol?

Retinol is an antioxidant derivative of vitamin A. It can be found in dark green vegetables such as kale, broccoli and spinach. Although adding these vitamin A rich foods to your diet will help to slow signs of ageing, your skin needs to be nurtured on the outside too.

Environmental factors, such as air pollution, can really take its toll on your skin too, leading to enlarged pores, uneven skin tone and signs of premature ageing. That’s where retinol can help. Adapting your skincare routine to include this anti-ageing ingredient will help improve your skin’s overall appearance, whilst vitamin A rich foods will help your skin from the inside.

 

How does retinol stop skin from ageing?

Once applied to the skin, retinol rich moisturizers and serums get to work on stimulating collagen and elastin production, fading hyper-pigmentation, and helping skin to stay hydrated and radiant. Promoting healthy skin renewal, retinol smooths out your complexion and can also help to combat everything from stubborn acne to frustrating eczema and sun-induced wrinkles.

 

What retinol anti-ageing products are available?

Derma Organics. Brightening Equalizer Facial Moisturizer™ & Brightening Equalizer Facial Serum™There’s a wide range of anti-ageing concoctions to choose from. However, it can be difficult to find an affordable, organic product that’s free from harsh chemicals - which can actually be damaging to your skin.

Ticking all of the right boxes is one of our favorite moisturizers, our Brightening Equalizer Facial Moisturizer. With 85% organic content, it contains 2% retinol and can help lessen the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

This anti-ageing product also contains vitamin E, a natural antioxidant that works to block free radicals which play a role in the ageing process. What’s more, it also contains organic rooibos extract, a natural ingredient that contributes to healthier skin and, just like retinol and vitamin E, can reduce wrinkles and boost the production of healthy skin cells.

 

Should I start using anti-ageing products?

Derma Organics. Brightening Equalizer Facial Moisturizer™It’s clear that anti-ageing remedies aren’t just for those who are already showing signs of ageing. Those in their 20s and 30s should definitely be taking preventative measures by using anti-ageing products too. After all, prevention is better than a cure!

When it comes to slowing the signs of ageing, the wonder product truly is retinol. It’s natural, trusted and proven to be effective in combating signs of ageing, and that’s why we include it in our moisturizer. For us, a skincare ingredient like this is well worth investing in, no matter how old you are!
