FAQ about mature skin

From what point do we speak of mature skin?

There is no specific age at which skin is considered mature. Skin is generally regarded as mature when it begins to show pronounced wrinkles, age 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?

Mature skin does indeed tend to be more sensitive due to the progressive thinning of the epidermis over time.

Is sun protection still important for mature skin?

Yes, because there is no specific age at which a melanoma or carcinoma can develop. Moreover, several studies have shown that it is 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 decline in endogenous hyaluronic acid levels and the weakening of the hydrolipidic film.

Is it still beneficial to use antioxidants when you have mature skin?

Yes, antioxidants are still 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?

Certain powdered textures accentuate wrinkles and are not advantageous for mature skin, but this is not the case for all make-up. Lightweight products can be entirely suitable.

Can facial massage firm mature skin?

Scientific evidence for the effectiveness of facial massage in firming the skin is currently very limited.

Can mature skin be oily?

This is possible but not very common. In general, the skin tends to become increasingly dry with age.

Can exfoliants still be used on mature skin?

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