How to choose the right anti-aging treatment?

Depending on your skin type and age, your face will have different care needs. But one thing is for sure: between pollution and the passing years, anti-aging creams are our best allies for keeping skin supple and radiant. So, how do you choose the right anti-aging care? Fourchette & Bikini gives you its little tips!

 

Why is it useful?

It's like this, after a certain age, the skin no longer has the same elasticity and the cells regenerate more slowly. A added to this are the effects of pollution and seasonal aggressions, which tend to accelerate skin aging. That is why it is recommended to use anti-aging treatments starting at the age of 30. More targeted than day creams, they help maintain the tone, flexibility, and natural radiance of your skin. When applied daily, anti-aging treatments delay the development of wrinkles and the appearance of pigmentation spots.

What care for what age?

Anti-aging treatments are not chosen in the same way at 25 as at 60. While each person has a different genetic capital, it is advisable to start using these treatments from the age of 30, when cells begin to renew themselves less quickly.

A 20 years: hygiene and hydration

Throughout your twenties, the skin naturally renews itself. Therefore, there is no need to rush into anti-aging treatments. Prioritize a rigorous hygiene routine by thoroughly cleansing your face and applying a moisturizing cream with a sun protection factor.

A 30 years old: we’re taking it slow.

By the age of 30, the skin gradually begins to age. You can therefore alternate: sometimes your day cream with sun protection factor, sometimes a special anti-aging treatment for first wrinkles. Also think about eye contour care, as the eye area is the most affected by the first signs of aging.

A 40 years old: the little extra of the antioxidant serum

A from the age of 40, wrinkles begin to become more pronounced and multiply. The skin tends to sag and lose its radiance. To tame these slight signs of aging, apply an anti-wrinkle treatment with an antioxidant serum and an anti-aging moisturizing cream. And don't forget the eye contour treatment! Thanks to this effective cocktail, your skin's firmness is maintained and your complexion is illuminated.

A 50 years old: the trick for anti-spot care

Around the age of 50, the skin continues to weaken and begins to develop pigmentation spots. Fortunately, many treatments can help strengthen and restructure it. In addition to anti-wrinkle cream, anti-aging cream, and eye contour treatment, use a spot treatment. Your imperfections will be less frequent, less pronounced, and your face reshaped!

A 60 years and older: cocooning through hydration

At 60, wrinkles are more pronounced and the skin is more relaxed. But it’s time to treat yourself! Without neglecting eye contour care, apply an anti-aging "mature skin" and redensifying cream, as well as an ultra-nourishing and comforting cream. Your skin needs to be hydrated, so don’t hold back: choose a cream whose scent makes you swoon and whose texture captivates you.

What care for which type of skin?

Two women of the same age will not have the same skin and the same needs. That’s why you need to adapt your care according to your epidermal authenticity!

For dry and dull skin:
Choose creams rich in moisturizing agents, such as antioxidant actives and hyaluronic acid.

For combination skin lacking firmness:
Prefer a lightweight hydrating treatment with peptides to balance the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin).

For oily skin:
Opt for a retinol or fruit acid exfoliating cream, which regulates excess sebum.

For sensitive skin:
Choose a cream containing calcium and vitamin C, to help your skin strengthen.
