My anti-aging and firming routine

Fine Lines & Wrinkles: the perfect anti-ageing routine

Over time, certain aspects of our skin change, and this anti-aging process can be accentuated by external aggressions (pollution, sun) and our lifestyle (stress, diet, smoking). Indeed, our skin tells a story, our history, and everything it has recorded "in memory" comes to the surface over the years and can be read on our features. At the heart of the skin, collagen and elastin fibers dissociate and become less numerous, cell renewal slows down, leading to a loss of elasticity. The epidermis becomes less smooth and less dense. The composition of the hydrolipidic film changes: the skin becomes drier, less well nourished and hydrated. This guide will give you all the beauty advice you need to have a beautiful skin and preserve its firmness and tone.

What causes wrinkles?

We aren’t all created equal when it comes to skin ageing. A number of factors come into play, including: 

• Our genetics. But, rest assured, only 20% of the signs of signs of aging are linked to your genetic heritage... Hence the importance of taking good care of your skin to slow down the appearance of wrinkles and fine linesThis is why it is so important to take good care of your skin to slow down the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines as much as possible, and to prevent skin slackening.
• Environmental factors to which the skin is subjected: free radicals, excessive exposure to the sun, stress, pollution are all elements that strain the skin cells and activate the aging of the skin.
• Bad habits such as smoking, lack of sleep or sugar abuse also play a role in the loss of elasticity and tone. A balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle are the best allies for maintaining skin health.
• Faced with all these factors, the skin begins to show its first signs of weakness, often around the age of 30, when the production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid slows down. From the age of 40, these changes become more pronounced and it is at this time that the first expression lines appear. 

At Oh My Cream, we do not advocateanti-aging oranti-wrinkle at all costs, quite the contrary. We know that skin aging is a natural process and our idea is rather to accompany the skin with specific care that will reveal all its beauty and radiance, on a daily basis.

The different types of wrinkles on the face

The first signs of aging appear in the eyes: dark circles and bags under the eyes are the main signs of fatigue. Then, other changes take place in the dermis and epidermis: small dehydration lines and the first expression lines dehydration lines and the first expression lines appear. point their nose. Among them, the most frequent are the frown lines (between the eyebrows), forehead wrinkles and eye contour lines. The lip contour is also a particularly sensitive area, as the skin there is also particularly thin. In order to support the skin, additional targeted care such as a firming or smoothing "anti-aging" serum, a good eye cream or a well-nourished lip care will be a great asset for the skin.

Which anti-aging cream at 30?

We think prevention with a protective day care that is anti-aggression and full of anti-oxidants. And above all, don't forget that intensely moisturizing the skin is already an anti-aging gesture.

Which anti-aging cream at 40?

We add active ingredients that specifically act on the skin's tone and elasticity, such as peptides, vitamins, etc. We also add a protection factor to our day cream or makeup to prevent the appearance of spots. 

Which anti-wrinkle cream should I use at 50?

We offer ourselves a very global care acting at the same time on the hydration, the wrinkles, the spots and the firmness. A well-repaired cream like Super Rich Repair Dermalogica.

DOs for an effective anti-aging routine

- Adopt an SPF protection factor all year round: the sun remains the primary factor in skin aging and is also the major cause of pigmentation spots...

- Use makeup as a "radiance booster" tool. Choose a foundation with adjustable coverage like Ilia Serum Foundation to even out and blur small flaws, while maintaining a natural result.

- Book a deep-tissue treatment in a salon at least once a month. To boost your home treatments and for an even more profound action on wrinkles, firmness or spots, this is a must. Ask our boutiques for more information!

DON'Ts that don't help against skin aging

- Forget about the neck and chest areas: it would be a shame to fuss over your face and not extend treatments to these areas which are often forgotten and yet just as visible!

- We don't necessarily know it, but sugar abuse also has a direct impact on mature skin: it binds to elastin fibers and breaks them down, leading to an irreparable lack of firmness.

- Thinking that wrinkled skin is not pretty: mature skin that is well cared for is always very bright and wrinkles are also a sign of a happy and full life...
