Mature Skin

Mature skin is characterised by a loss of elasticity, firmness, and the emergence of wrinkles and fine lines. As we age, the skin becomes thinner and may appear more dull. To restore its radiance and suppleness, it is beneficial to adapt one's skincare routine. Discover more details about mature skin.

FAQ about mature skin

From what point do we start talking about mature skin?

There is no specific age to refer to mature skin. Skin is generally considered mature when it begins to show pronounced wrinkles, ageing spots, and a loss of radiance.

Which active ingredients are recommended for mature skin?

Retinol, bakuchiol and peptides are generally recommended for mature skin.

Is mature skin more sensitive?

Indeed, mature skin tends to be more sensitive due to the gradual thinning of the epidermis over time.

Is sun protection still important for mature skin?

Indeed, because there is no age limit for developing melanoma or carcinoma. Furthermore, several studies have shown that it's never too late to start using daily sun protection, and that this can help slow down skin ageing.

Do mature skins require more hydration?

Yes, mature skin requires enhanced hydration to compensate for the gradual decrease in endogenous hyaluronic acid levels.

Is it still beneficial to use antioxidants when one has mature skin?

Yes, antioxidants are always beneficial, even for mature skin, as they help to combat free radicals, unstable molecules that can cause extensive damage to skin components and intensify wrinkles and other signs of skin ageing.

Can makeup accentuate the signs of ageing?

Yes, certain powdery textures highlight wrinkles and do not favour mature skin.

Can facial massages firm up mature skin?

Evidence supporting the effectiveness of facial massages in firming the skin is currently very limited, especially for mature skin.

Can mature skin be oily?

This is possible but uncommon. Generally, the skin tends to become increasingly dry with age.

Can we still use exfoliants on mature skin?

Yes, it is even recommended to use exfoliants on a mature skin as cellular renewal tends to decrease over the years.
