Anti-Aging

Fine lines, wrinkles, discoloration, and other signs of aging skin are due to both internal and external factors. Internal (or intrinsic) aging is driven by genetics as well as the cellular damage caused by free radicals, inflammation, and hormonal shifts that reduces the skin’s ability to repair itself. In aging skin, signs of intrinsic aging include fine lines, wrinkles, skin sagging, loss of skin plumpness, and increased dryness.

External (or extrinsic) aging is due to environmental factors like UV exposure, air pollution, and lifestyle habits such as diet, smoking, and alcohol consumption. Signs of extrinsic aging include discoloration and dark spots, wrinkles, and redness.

Retinol is perhaps one of the most studied anti-aging ingredients, and this form of vitamin A helps promote cellular turnover to keep fresh cells on the skin’s surface and improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, discoloration, and skin texture.

Sunscreen is an anti-aging skincare product as well since it helps prevent the UV damage that contributes to age-related skin changes over time. Ingredients to look for include zinc oxide, titanium dioxide, avobenzone, homosalate, octisalate, and octocrylene.
