What’s the right age to start using anti-aging skincare?
Skin starts to age in your 20s. Sounds depressing? It doesn’t need to be… aging is natural. But pollution and lifestyle factors can mean the process speeds up – and so it’s worth considering some simple anti-aging skin care measures, even from your 20s.
While most people don’t notice much in the way of visible aging in their 20s, the sooner you start, the less likely you'll develop fine lines, dark spots, crow's feet, and other signs of skin aging.
And if you’re already in your 30s, 40s, 50s, or beyond? Now’s as good a time to start as any…
Anti-aging skincare that works at any age
Topical vitamin C
Vitamin C is a common ingredient in almost all anti-aging skin care products. It’s an essential food for our skin and can reduce the appearance of aging signs.
Choose a skin-rejuvenating vitamin C serum that reinstates skin radiance, fights free radicals, and supports skin elasticity.
Use an anti-aging cream
Create a natural barrier against external pollutants that speed up aging. Using an oil-free anti-aging cream day and night will help your skin hold its natural moisture and protect against sun damage.
Eat anti-aging foods (yes, really!) Skin starts glowing from the inside. Try these anti-aging foods to give your skin a boost:
- Watercress
- Papaya
- Aloe Vera
- Cucumber
- Spinach
- Nuts
- Avocados
Use high-frequency therapy
Recommended by dermatologists, high-frequency therapy is a tried-and-tested anti-aging treatment. When you start using it in your 20s, it helps slow down aging before it becomes visible. Used in your 30s and beyond, it will keep aging signs from worsening and makes wrinkles or lines you have less visible.
It’s never too early or too late! So, NOW is the right time to start with an anti-aging skincare routine.
