New Year, New You: Skincare Resolutions for Every Age
The dawn of a new year invites us to reflect on our habits, set new goals, and embark on a journey of self-improvement. While resolutions often focus on fitness and career aspirations, the canvas of the skin deserves its spotlight.
In this guide, we'll explore skincare resolutions for every age, complementing them with healthy lifestyle approaches. A healthy New Year is just a few steps away.
20s: Embrace Eye Care Early
Skincare Resolution: Start Using Eye Cream
In your 20s, the focus should be on prevention rather than correction. The delicate skin around the eyes lacks natural moisture and is prone to premature aging. Introducing an eye cream, such as our VITAL C hydrating eye recovery gel becomes your secret weapon. Packed with hyaluronic acid, this gel hydrates, protects, and helps stave off the early signs of aging.
Lifestyle Recommendations:
- Focus on Hydration: Hydration is crucial for skin health. Ensure you drink an adequate amount of water daily to keep your skin well-hydrated from the inside out.
- Protect Your Skin: Even in your 20s, sun damage can accumulate. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily to shield your skin from harmful UV rays.
- Get Adequate Sleep: Quality sleep is essential for skin health. Aim for 7-9 hours of sleep each night to support overall skin health.
30s: Reveal Radiance with Retinol
Skincare Resolution: Start Using Retinol
As you enter your 30s, the focus shifts to addressing the early signs of aging. Retinol becomes your skincare hero. IMAGE MD restoring retinol crème with time-release retinol, promotes cell turnover, reduces blemishes, and addresses fine lines.
Lifestyle Recommendations:
- Balanced Diet: Opt for a diet rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. These nutrients support skin health from within.
- Regular Exercise: Exercise increases blood flow, delivering essential nutrients to your skin cells. Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week.
- Manage Stress: Chronic stress can accelerate aging. Incorporate stress-management techniques such as long walks or yoga into your routine.
40s: Leverage the Power of Stem Cells
Skincare Resolution: Start Using Plant Stem Cells
In your 40s, the focus turns to skin regeneration. The MAX™ crème is the ideal skincare solution. It contains stem cells that minimize wrinkles and fine lines, offering a natural approach to skin renewal.
Lifestyle Recommendations:
- Maintain a Healthy Diet: Include fruits and vegetables with antioxidants to support the skin's defense against environmental stressors.
- Adequate Rest: Ensure you prioritize quality sleep and allow your skin time to rejuvenate. Include mindful relaxation techniques in your routine like yoga and meditation.
- Stay Active: Regular exercise promotes circulation, aiding in the delivery of nutrients to the skin. Engage in activities you enjoy making it a sustainable habit.
50s: Embrace Collagen
Skincare Resolution: Start Taking Daily Collagen Shots
In your 50s, collagen becomes a valuable addition to your routine. YANA™ daily collagen shots offer a delicious way to hydrate from the inside out, improving suppleness and elasticity.
Lifestyle Recommendations:
- Eat Collagen-Boosting Foods: Include collagen-boosting foods like bone broth, fish, and berries in your diet.
- Regular Skin Check-ups: Schedule regular skin check-ups with a dermatologist to address any concerns promptly.
- Mind-Body Wellness: Practices such as mindfulness and meditation contribute to overall well-being, reflecting positively on your skin.
Skincare Resolutions for Every Age
Cleanse Consistently
Ensure that cleansing becomes a non-negotiable step in your daily skincare routine. Commit to cleansing every morning before applying moisturizer and makeup, as well as every evening before bedtime. Opt for our ORMEDIC® balancing facial cleanser, known for its gentle and moisturizing qualities.
Remove Makeup Before Bed
Avoid the beauty mistake of sleeping in makeup, as it can mix with daily dirt and oils, leading to clogged pores and potential breakouts. Always take a moment to thoroughly remove your makeup before bedtime to maintain clear and healthy-looking skin. If you're extra tired, reach for I Beauty facial wipes, to remove surface makeup and impurities.
Incorporate Face Serum
For radiant and healthy skin, make face serum a consistent part of your skincare routine. Apply it every morning and evening after cleansing and before moisturizing. Our Vital C hydrating anti-aging serum and IMAGE MD® restoring power-C serum provide a radiant boost.
Masque Up
Address the changing needs of your skin, especially if prone to breakouts and scarring. Masques are powerful tools, providing hydration, exfoliation, and acne prevention. Treat yourself to the I MASK purifying probiotic mask for a rejuvenating and purifying experience.
Celebrate Sunscreen
Regardless of the season or weather, make daily sunscreen application a non-negotiable habit. Protect your skin from UVA and UVB rays with PREVENTION+® daily ultimate protection moisturizer SPF 50. This lightweight formula is suitable for all skin types, ensuring daily protection without leaving a visible residue
