How to change your beauty ritual and what means to add to it to keep branding yourself at the age of 40?
Add moisturizing
Yes, we constantly talk about this in almost every beauty text, but the older you get, the more meaning our recommendation takes. Moisturizing has recently become a synonym for youth, and it is understandable: wrinkles and folds appear on dry skin faster. One of the easiest options is to replace the cleansing gel with milk. Look for rose petals, thermal water, vitamin E and other “gentle” components in the composition.
Add lifting masks
You are sure to already use anti-aging creams, but it will also be needed to add lifting masks to the diet to enhance their effect. Apply them to your face for 15-20 minutes no more than 2-3 times a week (otherwise you can dry the skin; their high concentrated ingredients act aggressively). After you remove the mask, carefully distribute the remaining ingredients on the face, tapping them with your fingers.
Don’t ignore patches
Of course, patches can be used at any age, but after forty they are especially relevant – this is a quick way to “erase” the signs of fatigue in the morning. In the evening, you can get the same effect and start the natural process of cell regeneration, using moisturizing serums. By the way, if you make a long flight, you can also keep them in mind – “patches” will help the skin suffering from dehydration to look better at altitude.
Find a night anti-aging cream
After 40 years, night cream, especially the one labeled “anti-aging”, is a must-have. Unlike daytime cream, it has a thicker saturated texture and more active substances, for example, retinol (it can give age spots under the sun rays, so it is better to apply it in the evening). Do not forget that not only the face, but also the neck and the décolleté zone need to be saved from wrinkles.
