Glowing Skin at Every Age

It is no secret that our skin changes as we age, and what worked in our 20s won’t work in our 30s, 40s and beyond. But fear not, it is possible to maintain a youthful, dewy glow no matter our age, as long as we update our routine every decade. Here is how you can achieve glowing skin at every age!

In Your 20s

If you are in your 20s there are two things you should absolutely be doing every single day (well, three, since everyone is already applying daily sunscreen, right?). Cleansing your skin at night, and using retinol! Falling asleep with makeup on can block pores, leaving oil trapped inside. This leads to bacteria buildup and breakouts while also stretching out your pores. Use an oil-based cleanser to break down your makeup and then follow up with a second cream-based or gel cleanser to ensure everything is removed.

If you aren’t already, you should start using retinol ASAP. Your skin starts to lose the ability to repair itself starting in your 20s, so using retinol preemptively will slow down the aging process. And as a bonus, retinol also helps with acne!

In Your 30s

As you enter your 30s your growth hormones start to slow down, and as a result, the skin won’t repair itself the same way it did when you were in your 20s. The days of neglecting your skin and not establishing a skincare routine are over! On top of cleansing your skin at night, using an SPF during the day, and using a retinol, you should also start paying attention to the skin around your eyes and on your neck. These areas are more delicate than the rest of your skin, and as a result, they start to show signs of aging more quickly. A good rule of thumb to keep in mind: anything that you put on your face should also be applied to your neck.

You should also be using a good eye cream, as your eye area has virtually no oil glands and is the first area of the face to show aging from facial expressions like squinting and smiling.

In Your 40s, 50s and Beyond

The older you get, the slower your skin recovers. Lack of sleep plus environmental and lifestyle stresses all harm your skin more than they did when you were in your 20s and 30s. On top of using SPF, retinol, and neck and eye cream, you should also start using facial oils to keep your skin plump and hydrated. Gently massage these oils into your skin, pinching along the jawline to release stress and stimulate circulation, giving radiance in minutes.

Also, be sure that you are exfoliating your skin 2 times a week. Exfoliating will help to lift dull, dead skin cells and stimulate circulation, which will result in a brighter-looking complexion.
