Thirty-five years of age is a definite milestone in the life of every woman. After 35 years, women seek to preserve beauty by all available means. By this age, many have pronounced wrinkles, skin elasticity is lost and the contour of the face is distorted. Facial skin care is much different from procedures at a younger age. With daily and proper care, it is possible to slow down the aging process of the skin.
Features of facial skin after 35 years
After 35 years, any skin undergoes age-related changes: more and more facial wrinkles, sagging, sagging are formed. Less collagen and elastin are produced to support the firmness and firmness of our skin. At this age, the skin becomes thinner and dries up, and the renewal procedures in the body slow down.
Beauticians recommend connecting regular anti-aging care.
Nevertheless, it is rather difficult to give universal advice to the age group of 30 to 40 years. The skin condition at this age is very different. Women with dry skin types are overcome by a feeling of dryness, tightness of the skin, and complaints of wrinkles appear. Owners of oily skin type are still worried about the oily sheen in the T-zone.
If you do not start to care for your face in time, then such disadvantages as:
- Sagging;
- Wrinkles;
- Pigmentation;
- Vascular nets on the cheeks;
- Bags under the eyes;
- Swollen eyelids.
A modern woman can radically change such a disappointing picture with the help of proper facial care.
Skin Care Rules
It must be recognized that at 30, the skin begins to lose elasticity. Even if you, looking in the mirror, do not notice any age-related changes, you should not relax. Therefore, take care of skin care, even if it seems that it is in perfect condition.
Dermatologists say - aging comes abruptly and unexpectedly. Before you begin to properly care for your skin after 35 years, it is important to determine your skin type. The skin is divided into the following types:
- Oily
- Dry
- Combined
- Normal
According to the claims of cosmetologists and dermatologists, the skin changes its characteristics over the years. This is confirmed by the fact that previously helping skin care products cease to work effectively.
In order to maintain the epidermis in good condition, you need to choose the right cosmetics. Proper nutrition, fresh air, an active lifestyle and harmony with oneself play a significant role.
Cleansing
The first thing we do for skin care is washing. It is strictly forbidden to wash with soap. It overdries the skin, and this has a very negative effect on its condition. Choose a foam by skin type.
When you wash, you are already starting to take care of your face, because a properly selected product solves these or other problems. In the morning we bring the skin in tone, nourish with vitamins, prepare for the application of cosmetics, and in the evening we get rid of excess makeup, sebum, dirt and dust.
Collagen foam for washing is ideal for cleansing the skin.
In a nutshell about the properties of collagen:
- Strengthens the skeleton of the skin;
- Aligns the contour of the face;
- Blocks moisture loss.
We do not recommend using lotions or tonics after cleansing, as they cause dryness of the face. After washing, we pat the skin with a towel, it can not be rubbed or stretched. If in the morning it’s just enough to wash with foam, then in the evening, cleansing should be more thorough. Beauticians advise to wash off cosmetics not before bedtime, but as soon as you return home.
Moisturizing and nutrition
After cleansing the face should be moisturized. On moisturizing cream after 35 years many have too high hopes, supposedly it should moisturize and protect from the sun, remove pigmentation and smooth out wrinkles. In fact, the function of a moisturizer is more primitive and simple.
When choosing a cream, remember that it has seasonality. In summer, it is better to choose moisturizers, and in winter, nutritious.
Moisturizer has 3 main purposes:
- Moisturizing;
- Protection;
- Food.
The most important function is moisturizing. It can be compared to how we drink 2 liters of water daily in order to speed up metabolism. Moisturizing products stabilize the metabolic processes in the skin.
If we talk about the protective function, then moisturizers protect the skin from ultraviolet rays and free radicals. Antioxidants fight free radicals. As part of the products, they are present in the form of vitamin C, E, green tea extract, etc.
The nutritional function is synonymous with emollient. There are creams with fatter textures. Typically, such funds complement ceramides. Ceramides are an important component of the cell membrane. The ability of the cell to divide will depend on their quantity and quality. These cells are very important for mature and aging skin.
Rejuvenation
In the fight against wrinkles, the best way is anti-aging products. Anti-age creams differ from moisturizers only in that they contain a special protective and nourishing complex.
Be sure to choose a suitable essence or serum for yourself, in fact it is one and the same. Serum contains a high concentration of active components and works as a standalone product and increases the effectiveness of the cream.
Anti-aging creams keep the skin toned, slowing down the aging process.
Beauticians advise choosing essences with snail extract. The essence helps to keep enlarged pores in tone, brightens, relieves small wrinkles and rashes. There are essences with collagen that help the production of a natural substance that prolongs youth and beauty.
Day and night care
After the age of 35, it is necessary to carry out procedures in a beauty salon, that is, visit a cosmetologist and replenish comprehensive courses for the care of appearance. It is also important to properly care for the epidermis at home and choose the appropriate cosmetics.
With age, the skin of the face becomes more sensitive and capricious, so natural means should be added to day care. They are more gentle, and the active natural ingredients in the composition will add softness to the skin.
Add intensely moisturizing face masks to your daily care. These masks most often contain vitamin E, C, A. Useful substances nourish the skin, making it velvety and fresh.
The most important item in facial skin care is getting rid of scrubs. It is better to replace this type of exfoliation with soft peeling, which will delicately remove the keratinized layer of the skin and do not injure new cells.
Skin care begins not only with special products, but also with regular habits. Drink 2 liters of water per day to keep your skin nourished and soft. You can also nourish it with aloe vera juice or fresh cucumber. A full sleep will prevent bruises and bags under the eyes.
Facial care in the cold season
In the cold season, you should not be sad, it's time to restore the skin.In summer, the skin was overdried, collagen and hyaluronic acid were quickly removed from the skin. Loss of nutrients and vitamins, reduced elasticity and freshness negatively affect the skin of the face. Therefore, it is necessary to restore it with creams with enhanced effect. Do not forget about the lips, which also need constant hydration and nutrition.
When exposed to cold temperature, the skin of the face becomes more sensitive and dry. The amount of sebum that is released during the warm season is reduced during the cool season, so the person does not need to be cleansed so much. Facial skin needs nutrition, hydration and increased circulation.
If in the summer they dispensed with anti-aging essence, then in winter the cream is changed to a denser texture.
The choice of face cream after 35 years
With age, the skin of the face becomes thinner and especially needs to be protected and moisturized. Do not have hopes that the cream will help smooth out wrinkles or bumps in the skin. First of all, you should expect high-quality work from the cream in the upper layer of the epidermis.
Experts distinguish 4 types of aging:
- Tired - a decrease in the elasticity of the epidermis, naturally for women with normal skin type. The clarity of the oval of the face goes away, wrinkles are not pronounced. Care marked: to increase skin elasticity;
- Gravity - the face begins to "slide" down, forming nasolabial folds. This is common in women with oily skin. Leaving marked: restores the oval of the face;
- Combined is the most common form of aging. Leaving marked: wrinkles;
- Shallow - most often occurs in women with dry skin type with a minimum amount of sebum. Leaving marked: smoothing;

The use of face masks can even out skin tone in express mode, moisturize, nourish, smooth wrinkles. Most often, masks are full of active substances that are aimed at obtaining a quick effect.
Mature skin needs a lifting effect, additional nutrition and strengthening.
Once or twice a week it is worth trying various face masks. Masks are cleansing, moisturizing, evening, anti-aging and night.
