We’ve all heard it before. The secret to how to keep looking young is to get your beauty sleep, drink more water, wear more sunscreen. Aside from that, there are a few skincare items that you can add to your regime in order to achieve brighter and youthful skin. Here are just a few of the most popular or viral skincare products that have been proven to work wonders and are your secret weapon in your quest to keep looking young.
Vitamin C isn’t just for our immune system
There are countless Vitamin C Serums on the market that will help you to keep looking young even reverse aging effects. Vitamin C Serums work by fighting against free radicals and increasing your collagen production. The effects? You’ll have firmer skin, reduced hyperpigmentation and dark spots. To top it all off, Vit C serums are suitable for all skin types. The only thing that you should watch out for is misinformation regarding Vitamin C based skincare. There are plenty of myths surrounding it, such as when you can use it and how you should use it, but always do your own research prior to trying any new skincare.
AHA BHA is a miracle worker for porous skin
Ever wish that you have airbrushed or baby smooth skin? AHA BHA is the go-to exfoliant that everyone with any experience with it swears by. Ultra gentle on the skin and much less abrasive than traditional exfoliants which we have been made to believe are better because they are made from natural products such as sugar or almond skin, AHA BHA seeps directly into your skin and peels the older layer off to make room for the new layer. Sounds scary, and you do need to take extra precautions when you’re going out in the sun and take care not to overstimulate your skin because too many hash treatments may cause sensitivity. With the right regime, adding AHA BHA can unveil smoother skin, including finer pores and less lines or wrinkles.
Don’t skip your skincare routine no matter what
It can be tempting to skip washing your face when you’re super tired from business and while you might be able to get away with it when you were younger, the fact is that our body’s metabolism slows down as we age which is why you’ll notice that we heal slower than when we were younger. Scars take longer to fade and any blemishes seem to stay there longer. The fact is that we need to wash our faces on a daily basis due to the amount of gunk and junk that we’re exposed to. Not washing your face for just one night or skipping sunscreen just one morning may cause blockages in your skin or sun damage, if that’s the latter. It’s true what they say. Sun damage doesn’t show up immediately, but it will catch up with you when you’re older, so if you want to keep looking young, the best thing is prevention – it’s always better than a cure.
