Starring at old photos of themselves, most people miss their wrinkle-free skin, radiant complexion and fuller, healthier-looking cheeks. While ageing isn’t something you can prevent, there are improvements you can make to your skincare routine to slow down the impact it has on your skin.

 

Drink plenty of water

It sounds too easy, but drinking plenty of water can really make a difference to your skin. It keeps it moisturised and hydrated, which gives a brighter, healthier glow to the face. 

You should also use products that have hydrating ingredients in, such as hyaluronic acids and glycerine. These plump up the skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines in the process. 

 

Find the right retinol for your skin 

Retinol is great at helping to reduce the signs of ageing, but Vogue reminds readers to choose a product with the right type for you, whether that’s retinol, retinal, retinoid or retinoic acid to name a few. 

“There’s a temptation again to use the strongest one, but that might not be suited to your skin,” it stated. 

 

Wrinkle injections

Women who want to remove their fine lines are likely to be tempted to book in for wrinkle relaxing injections in Wheathampstead, as these can get rid of forehead and frown lines, crows’ feet, bunny and under eye lines, as well as being able to lift eyebrows.  

 

Don’t exfoliate too much 

Women have long been advised to cleanse and exfoliate their skin, but actually exfoliating too much can cause damage. This is because it can remove healthy skin cells, as well as dead ones.
