Hydration and care of mature skin
Skin care is essential as we age. Over the years, the skin loses collagen and therefore elasticity and hydration. It is important to adapt our facial care routines as our skin matures and find the right formulations for our needs.
After age 50, with menopause, estrogen levels decrease, which affects skin health. Additionally, cumulative exposure to the sun and other factors can cause skin to look dehydrated, dull, and wrinkled. Therefore, it is crucial to look for moisturizing creams that not only hydrate, but also have regenerating effects, provide luminosity, firmness and reduce wrinkles.
