- Retinol
- Sunscreen
It’s never too early to prevent the skin damage that leads to signs of aging or too late to address visible changes. It's second nature to want to put off the progression of fine lines, wrinkles, skin discoloration , and loss of elasticity on our skin. Maintaining youthful skin is possible - the key is to begin implementating a proper, anti-aging skincare routine from a young age. The key is to go back to the basics:
1. Topical vitamin C serum
UUsing sunscreen is an effective way to shield skin from age-inducing damage caused by UV rays, but it doesn’t account for the free radicals that contribute to visible signs of aging on skin. We recommend using sunscreen along with a topical vitamin C serum to ensure a fuller, more comprehensive protection against free radicals. In addition to its antioxidant capabilities, vitamin C has also been shown to offer skin-brightening and collagen-boosting benefits , making this ingredient an anti-aging must have at any age. For a potent daily vitamin c serum, look no further than SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic®, which has been shown to help improve fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of firmness, as well as the face serum Phloretin CF for those with fine lines and skin discoloration. Our topical antioxidant serum options also include targeted formulations such as the night serum Resveratrol B E and the eye serum AOX+ Eye Gel.
2. Retinol
Retinol is one of those skincare products that's lauded by many, but not widely understood. Retinol is key in treating all of the above visible signs of aging—as well as tend to acne-prone skin and the visibility of pores. This vitamin A derivative helps stimulate cellular turnover to keep fresh, healthy cells on the skin’s surface while helping to prevent clogged pores that lead to breakouts. SkinCeuticals’ offers a plethora of retinol skincare, including face creams such as Retinol 0.3 for first-time users as well as Retinol 0.5 for conditioned skin. These rich, retinol creams are formulated with soothing bisabolol to help minimize potential side effects like peeling, redness, and irritation.
3. Sunscreen
The first words told by any skincare expert? Apply sunscreen daily! Preventing the accumulation of UV damage allows the skin to repair and regenerate itself, in turn restoring its healthy, youthful-looking appearance by improving texture, pigmentation, and overall clarity. This is all the more reason to make sunscreen a part of your daily morning skincare regimen—and be sure to reapply at least every two hours when skin is directly exposed to UV rays for an extended period of time. SkinCeuticals offers a variety of mineral-based sunscreen options for all skin types, as well as the delicate eye contour area.
