What beauty products and techniques can help reduce wrinkles?
It is perfectly normal to want to delay the appearance of your first wrinkles. It is also normal to try to reduce them when they have finally taken up residence on your face. On the other hand, if we are here to accompany you in the adoption of a adapted routine for a less tired skinwe do not advocate anti-aging! Aging is a natural phenomenon and should not be denied. Don't forget that wrinkles are the memory of our life and our emotions.
To understand why and when wrinkles appear, we need to look at three factors:
- Genetics: unfortunately, we are not all equal and some people have a genetic makeup that is less favorable to theappearance of wrinkles. But don't panic, genetics is only 20% responsible for this process.
- Your environment: it is also linked to your predetermination to wrinkles. Urban skins, in particular, are more exposed to pollution and therefore to free radicals that tire and dull the complexion. Overexposure to the sun is also a major factor. The effect of UV rays on the skin is well known, they are even the number one cause of skin aging!
- Your lifestyle: depending on your habits, you may be more likely to see your first wrinkles earlier than others. The bad habits responsible for this premature aging are smoking and alcohol consumption, overload of stress, poor diet, lack of sleep and sugar abuse.
Before thinking about anti-wrinkle care, think about double cleansing
Did you know that your very first anti-aging gesture doesn't start with cream? It actually begins long before... Every night, thanks to scrupulous make-up removal. The reason? You rid your skin of impurities accumulated during the day, in particular hyper-irritating pollution particles, which accelerate premature ageing. Cleansed in this way, the skin "breathes better", and can fully regenerate itself at night. This boosts the efficacy of anti-aging skin care products applied afterwards, enabling optimal cell renewal.
The best anti-wrinkle active ingredients
- Stabilizedvitamin C: the vitamin anti-wrinkle vitamin par excellence! It boosts collagen production and its antioxidant action helps combat the effects of free radicals.
- Retinol : the anti-wrinkle and anti-spot agent! Retinol, also known as Vitamin A, boosts collagen and elastin production and stimulates cell regeneration thanks to its exfoliating action.
- Collagen : this protein, naturally present in the body, is responsible for the elasticity and regeneration of our skin tissues, helping to target the signs of aging, imperfections and lack of hydration.
- Hyaluronic acid : the star moisturizing ingredient! Its plumping effect comes from its ability to boost collagen production and boost skin elasticity. It can be compared to a sponge that retains water in tissues well below the surface layer.
- Glycolic acid: the star of radiant complexions! This fruit acid exfoliates the epidermis, leaving skin clearer, brighter and less uneven - all thanks to a boost in cell regeneration!
- Peptides : the proteins that wake up even the most tired skin! These small molecules revive the mechanisms of mature skin, promoting collagen production to slow the appearance ofappearance of wrinkles.
- MSM : the high-tech anti-aging active ingredient ! MSM, or MethylSufonylMethane to give it its full name, is the new anti-wrinkle active ingredient to track down. It reduces cutaneous inflammation, helps the skin strengthen its defenses and stimulates collagen production mechanisms in particular.
