The Best Products for Rejuvenating Skin
Rejuvenation is the process of renewing and restoring your skin. As we nudge into our 30s and beyond, our cellular regeneration and collagen production can no longer keep up with us. Our natural oil production and hyaluronic acid production slows too. This is when signs of a life well lived start to emerge. Skin can appear lacklustre, tired, and with a little less bounce. Small lines and wrinkles may also start to show. They are purely a response to what your skin has encountered over the years.
What should your routine look like?
To assist you in your rejuvenation journey, look for products that contain collagen stimulating ingredients which will increase skin density and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. You also want to incorporate protective products into your routine too which will help to guard the skin against environmental stressors that can accelerate ageing.
