Ageing Skin: How to Keep Your Skin Looking Its Best at Any Age

Ageing Skin: How to Keep Your Skin Looking Its Best at Any Age

We can’t turn back the clock, but that doesn’t mean we can’t keep our skin looking its best. Ageing is a natural process, and rather than chasing unrealistic ideals, the key is to care for our skin with a consistent, effective routine. With the right skincare and lifestyle habits, you can slow the visible signs of ageing, maintain a radiant complexion, and most importantly, feel comfortable in the skin you’re in.

Daily SPF – Your Skin’s Best Defence

One of the most effective ways to prevent premature ageing is daily sun protection. UV rays are the number one culprit behind fine lines, wrinkles, and pigmentation, and they penetrate through clouds even on grey days. Find a formula that doubles up as a moisturiser, so you can hydrate and protect at the same time, and make it a non-negotiable part of your morning routine. And don’t forget your neck – it’s just as exposed and prone to ageing!

Powerhouse Ingredients for Anti-Ageing

While no single product can make you look 10 years younger, skincare science has provided us with some game-changing ingredients that work wonders in reducing the signs of ageing:

• Retinol – A derivative of Vitamin A, retinol increases cell turnover, smooths fine lines, and boosts collagen production for firmer skin.
• Co-enzyme Q10 – A powerful antioxidant that helps fight free radicals, preventing premature ageing while supporting skin repair and renewal.
• Vitamin C – Brightens the skin, evens out tone, and stimulates collagen production for a youthful glow.
• Hyaluronic Acid (HA) – Naturally occurring in our skin, HA retains moisture and keeps the skin plump and hydrated. However, its levels deplete over time, leading to dryness and fine lines. Using a hydrating serum with HA will replenish moisture and restore that youthful bounce.

Incorporating these ingredients into your routine will help keep your skin firm, smooth, and radiant.

Lifestyle Habits for Healthy Skin

Skincare isn’t just about what you apply topically – your lifestyle plays a huge role in how your skin ages.

Rest and Reduce Stress

Stress and lack of sleep can wreak havoc on your skin. Cortisol, the stress hormone, breaks down collagen, leading to wrinkles and dullness. Prioritise rest, and find ways to lower stress levels, such as yoga, meditation, or simple breathing exercises.

Aromatherapy is a powerful way to promote relaxation, ease stress, and enhance sleep quality. Simply add a few drops of a soothing essential oil blend to a diffuser, inhale deeply, and let the calming aroma help you unwind.

Gut Health and Diet

Your skin is a reflection of your internal health. A well-balanced diet rich in fruit, vegetables, and protein provides essential nutrients for skin repair and elasticity. Reducing alcohol intake is also key – alcohol dehydrates the skin and can cause inflammation, leading to premature ageing.

Professional Skin Treatments

For enhanced results, consider regular in-salon treatments with a professional therapist. Professional-grade products and treatments are stronger than at-home skincare and can deliver more visible results. A qualified therapist will assess your skin’s needs and recommend targeted treatments to boost hydration, firmness, and radiance. Find your local Eve Taylor therapist here (link).
