Beginning in your teen years, everyone should have a daily skincare regimen that includes cleansing, antioxidants, moisturizer, exfoliation, and sun protection. As you age, though, the types of benefits from those products should change with you.
Teens and 20’s
Your teens through your 20’s are the best time to get into the habit of a good skincare routine. Follow a consistent routine which not only puts good practices into place, but also helps you maintain your skin’s health, youth, and appearance. Your teens and 20’s are also the time to start getting personalized facials and peels. These can be personalized for your skin’s specific needs (such as acne) or to simply evaluate the needs of your skin.

Your 30’s
In your 30s, it’s time to include eye cream, as well as a product specifically for the neck and dĂ©colletĂ©, if you haven’t already. One of the best ways to correct early signs of aging in your 30s is by strengthening your exfoliation ingredients. Some signs of aging that may begin to appear are fine lines, discoloration, and loss of collagen and elastin. Incorporating these products can help combat the signs early on.

Your 40’s and 50’s
How you care for your skin in your 40’s and 50’s will continue to reap benefits in the decades to follow. Collagen production slows as you age, and collagen helps keep your skin plump and firm. Incorporating firming ingredients to your routine will help keep your skin firm and healthy.
Additionally, this is the perfect time to start caring for any other specialized needs such as hyperpigmentation and visible capillaries. By maintaining this antiaging regimen into your 60’s, you will continue to see healthy, youthful skin.
