Skin Features
As a rule, by the age of thirty-five, the skin ceases to be problematic - pimples and inflammation come to visit only on special days. Wrinkles and loss of tone are what you should pay attention to. First, mimic wrinkles always appear - in the folds of the eyes and lips. After the deepening of the nasolabial folds and the formation of wrinkles in the forehead. The skin sags along the contour, the oval of the face becomes less clear.
Therefore, the main task is to maintain the skin in optimal condition.It is important to provide your face with competent care - to protect it from adverse environmental factors (sunlight, frost, exhaust), nourish and moisturize the epidermis and prevent the formation of wrinkles.

The effectiveness of the agent largely depends on its composition. It should be as natural as possible and properly selected - specifically for your problems. Remember that the higher the ingredient is in the composition, the more it is in the product.
Creams after thirty-five years should include the following components:
- Hyaluronic acid. This substance helps to moisturize the epidermis, increases its elasticity and effectively slows down the aging process. Prevents thinning and dehydration of the skin. Hyaluronic acid, in addition to being used in cosmetics, is also taken orally - in the form of tablets or powder.
- fruit acids. Substances restore the skin by exfoliating peeling, making it softer and smoother, saturated with oxygen.
- Collagen. Our skin itself produces this substance, but after the age of thirty-five, its amount decreases significantly. Helps moisturize and plump.

- Retinol, or vitamin A. Rejuvenates the skin, regenerates cells. Normalizes metabolism, makes the epidermis smooth and even. Eliminates inflammation and acne.
- Mother's milk. Stimulates the production of collagen, and the vitamins B5 and B7 included in the composition are responsible for tightening the skin and rejuvenating it.Tightens the contours and nourishes the deep layers of the epidermis.
- Clay. In particular, blue, yellow, white. Yellow clay improves skin elasticity and tone, tightens and brightens spider veins, smoothes fine wrinkles. Blue clay activates blood circulation and cleanses the pores. White clay (kaolin) tightens the oval of the face, evens out the tone and brightens age spots.
- Green tea. Protects and cleanses the skin, leaving it fresh and soft
- Panthenol. The main active ingredient is vitamin B5. Remedy for wrinkles, dryness and inflammation. Highly effective as a care product for the skin around the eyes.
- Vegetable oils. These are real storehouses of nutrients, antioxidants, minerals and vitamins. The following have a rejuvenating and tightening effect: avocado, jojoba, black cumin oil, wheat germ, olive, sea buckthorn, sesame, flax. Essential oils include lavender, rosemary, rose, patchouli, geranium, eucalyptus, and myrrh.
- Keratin. An amino acid that, acting on the muscles, reduces wrinkles, tightens.
- Elastin. As the name implies, it is directly responsible for the elasticity of the epidermis, its elasticity. Enhances skin tone, reduces the number of mimic wrinkles. Eliminates oily sheen and acne.
- Ascorbic acid, or vitamin C. Promotes the production of collagen. Enhances blood circulation, regeneration, brightens post-acne, freckles, age spots. Evens out tone.

Beautician's advice on care and selection
Conditionally divide your skin care into several parts, taking into account the type of skin - oily, dry, normal. Cleansing - toning - moisturizing. Early in the morning, wash your face with a foam or gel with an anti-aging complex. This may be a product with the addition of fruit acids or hyaluronic acid. After - a tonic with retinol or collagen, snail mucin. As the final stage - a moisturizing day cream or make-up base, always with sun protection (SPF).
In the evening, you will need to remove all the dirt and cosmetics with lotion or makeup remover milk, it is recommended to use hydrophilic oil. Cleanse your face with your favorite cleanser. To close the pores again, use the same tonic as in the morning, or toner - whichever suits you best. Use a serum before applying your night cream. Go to bed calmly.
- Serum. She is the most concentrated. Use the serum in the evening, half an hour before using the night cream.
- When choosing a cream, pay attention to the composition.
- Also visit a beautician - this will help to identify skin problems, from which you can choose the maximum care. If you are not sure that you are able to pick it up yourself, take the advice of a doctor.
- Hyaluronic acid - the best friend for aging skin.
- If you want to keep your skin supple and firm, give up hard everyday cleansing - this will only thin the epidermis. Choose soft scrubs.Do not scrub your skin more than once a week, and if you have an important event, use peeling (a gentler product for cleansing the deep layers of the skin)
- Choose an anti-aging cream that stimulates collagen production. As we age, the main problem of our skin is the loss of elasticity. This is due to reduced collagen production. Therefore, in order to prevent wrinkles from appearing ahead of time, it is necessary to use anti-aging creams that increase collagen production. A moisturizer just “for dry” or “normal skin” is no longer suitable for you - give it to your younger sister, and buy something more effective for yourself.
- Also use products for the neck and décolleté. The big mistake of most women is that, when taking care of their face, they completely forget about the neck and chest. But their appearance directly affects the impression that you make.
- Make a mask twice a week. You can make it yourself, or you can buy it at a pharmacy or cosmetic store. Check out sheet masks.
- Take off your makeup properly. As you know, oils clean out pores best of all - from cosmetics and dirt collected during the day. Unlike various foams and gels, micellar waters, this remedy has a very gentle effect on the epidermis. The skin around the eyes is the most sensitive, and it is this that we most often “stress” with. Apply a little oil to a cotton pad moistened with warm water, apply to the eye and wait 5-10 seconds, pull - and the mascara will remain there. Another option is a biphasic serum.
- Include vegetables in your diet and eliminate junk food. We all know that beauty comes from within, so watch your diet.

Reviews
Do not rely only on statistics and promises of manufacturers. In addition to carefully studying ratings and brands, it is also recommended to read the reviews of each product you are interested in to evaluate its impact and effectiveness, as well as suitability for your skin type.
Day face cream "Ultra-Lifting" by Garnier buyers generally recommend. For skin over the age of 35, it has a noticeable caring effect, many people note the supporting effect. They notice that it most likely will not work on the “killed” dermis, since it removes only subtle mimic wrinkles.
Day face cream "Complete Renewal" by Avon Anew, as the customers who used it say, it can roll when mixed with foundation creams, and is not suitable for problem skin.This cream cannot be called masking, it does not hide any pimples, nettles, or enlarged pores.
Night face cream "Age Expert" 35+ from L'Oreal well moisturizes and nourishes the skin, but is unable to cope with fine mimic wrinkles. Since the next morning, customers note some tightening of the oval of the face, they recommend this cream for the care of dry skin that begins to fade.
Anti-wrinkle and firming day cream LiftActiv Supreme from Vichy improves complexion, smoothes wrinkles somewhat, in general, the reviews are good. Hydration and elasticity are also increased. Customers really call it anti-aging.
Night face cream "Peptide "Youth Vaccine" from Bielita-Vitex causes clearly conflicting reviews: either sharply negative (no effect, unpleasant smell), or, conversely, enthusiastic (the face is fresh in the morning, wrinkles are gone).
Super! Thanks for the review! There are many useful things!
