When is the Best Time to Start an Anti-Aging Skincare Routine?

As you age your skin experiences changes such as loss of elasticity, fine lines, wrinkles and dryness (1). Everyone's skin is different, and these changes will occur at different times, but you can help slow down and reduce the appearance of aging skin with a healthy lifestyle and a good skincare routine (1). Discover skincare routines and Cetaphil’s gentle moisturizing products.

When to start anti-aging skincare?

It’s never too early to start a good skincare routine and make good choices to help keep your skin hydrated, soft and healthy-looking. If you’ve never had a skincare routine before, read our article Anti-Aging Skin Care: How to Best Care for Your Aging Skin.

Starting a routine early can help prevent premature aging. A good approach is incorporating broad-spectrum sun protection with an SPF of at least 30 into your daily routine. UV rays can lead to premature aging of your skin, so using sun protection every day is vital to helping maintain youthful-looking skin (2).

As we age, our skin undergoes a natural aging process marked by a decline in collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, as well as our skin’s natural barrier not working as well. This leads to thinner, drier and less elastic skin, which results in the formation of fine lines and wrinkles (1).

Skin changes can also be impacted by other factors, including exposure to UV radiation, environmental factors, and lifestyle choices such as diet, alcohol and smoking (1,2).

What is the best skincare for aging skin?

The best skincare products for aging skin are those suitable for your skin type and those that include specific ingredients to help reduce the signs of aging. Your routine should include a good cleanser, serum, moisturizer, sun protection and exfoliator.

Key ingredients often found in anti-aging products include retinol, peptides, vitamins, and hyaluronic acid. Let’s take a quick look at these ingredients:

Sweet Almond Oil

Sweet Almond Oil is used in many anti-aging skincare products and can help to smooth and soften dry, rough skin textures.

Peptides

Peptides form many proteins in your body, such as elastin and collagen, which help to keep your skin barrier healthy-looking, bright, hydrated and more youthful-looking (1,4). Peptides, such as those that form the protein keratin, can help with skin brightening, hair shine and improved skin texture (4). Learn more in our article A Beginner’s Guide to Peptides in Skincare.

Vitamins

Vitamins can also help hydrate and smooth skin (5). Both niacinamide (vitamin B3) and panthenol (vitamin B5) are often used in skincare products for aging skin to help with hydration, skin tone and skin barrier protection (5,6). Cetaphil Healthy Radiance Brightening Cream contains niacinamide and tocopherol (vitamin E) to help even skin tone while protecting the skin’s moisture barrier, so skin looks smoother and more radiant.

Hyaluronic acid

Hyaluronic acid naturally occurs in our skin, but its surface levels reduce as we age (1). Hyaluronic acid can help to boost your skin’s hydration, providing you with a smooth skin texture. This ingredient can also help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, as well as skin dryness (7,8).

How to take care of your skin as a teenager

It’s a good idea to start a skincare routine as a teenager because it’s important to create good habits early! For teenagers, like everyone else, sun protection is vital to protect skin against UV exposure.

Additionally, because of the release of hormones during puberty, teenagers often experience increased skin oil (sebum) production which can lead to pores becoming blocked by excess oil, dead skin and bacteria, resulting in acne (8,9). Therefore, it’s important therefore to eat a balanced diet, as there is a known link between high sugar foods and acne (8,9). Equally important is to regularly cleanse your skin.

Remember to choose products which are suitable for your skin type. For example, if you do have oily skin, try Cetaphil PRO DermaControl Oil Control Moisturizer. This lightweight lotion provides SPF 30 protection and is a non-greasy formula which absorbs quickly and preserves the skin’s moisture barrier for a shine-free, matte finish appearance.

How to take care of your skin in your 20s

Your twenties is a good time to start a proactive anti-aging skincare routine every morning and night. You may spend more time socializing in your twenties, but remember that it’s important to remove your makeup every day during this often busy stage of your life.

Cetaphil Makeup Removing Wipes are very handy to remove your makeup on the go — these ultra soft wipes contain aloe vera, chamomile, and green tea botanicals, which can help soothe and condition your skin.

How to take care of your skin in your 30s

When you reach your thirties, you may start to notice the first visible signs of skin aging.

If you notice a change in tone or texture of your skin, Cetaphil Healthy Radiance Brightening Cream can help to improve your skin's luminosity and reduce the appearance of dark spots. This lightweight cream is formulated with niacinamide and natural skin brightening extracts.

How to take care of your skin after 40 and 50

It’s important to continue your skincare routine with anti-aging skincare products when you reach your forties and fifties. Menopause, which usually begins between the ages of 45 and 55, can cause significant skin changes due to dropping estrogen levels, resulting in dry, thinner, less elastic skin (5,9). Studies show that adult skin loses about 1-1.5% of its collagen every year and during the menopause 2.1% a year (5,6).

Therefore, you may need richer moisturizers, targeted serums and additional treatments to address age spots, fine lines and wrinkles.

Additionally, as we age, our skin renewal rate tends to be slower which leads to a build-up of dead skin cells on the surface (1). Start your anti-aging skincare routine with a gentle cleanser, such as Cetaphil Healthy Radiance Gentle Renewing Cleanser to help improve your skin texture and gently promote skin surface renewal.

Follow with Cetaphil Healthy Radiance Brightening C-Serum which can be used to boost skin radiance, improving hydration and illuminating your complexion to provide a look of being well rested. This hydrating serum can help to improve your skin’s luminosity to reveal radiant, glowing, healthy-looking skin.

After applying the serum, use Cetaphil Daily Facial Moisturizer in the morning to hydrate your skin. As a broad-spectrum SPF moisturizer, this daily use face moisturizer protects against harmful UVA and UVB rays.

At nighttime, apply Cetaphil Hydrating Night Cream before going to bed, so you can wake up to skin that looks rested and rehydrated.

Keeping the skin around your eyes hydrated can also help to reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles, so try Cetaphil Optimal Hydration Eye Serum for youthful, radiant-looking skin around the eyes.

The bottom line

It’s never too early to start an anti-aging skincare routine — getting into good habits with your skincare will help your skin to stay healthy-looking through the decades. As you age, your skin needs may change, but by protecting your skin against UV rays, eating well, exercising, getting enough sleep and keeping your skin nourished and hydrated, you can help prevent some signs of premature aging and help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles as you age.

Avoid taking too-long baths, as this can help worsen your dry skin. Applying a moisturizer with sunscreen once a day just after cleansing will help soothe dry skin and minimize the appearance of lines. Be sure to add the cream while your skin is still damp, as this will help lock in moisture. And as your skin is the type that’s extra-thirsty, don’t be scared to apply moisturizer several times a day. The best face moisturizer for dry skin should contain ingredients (such as glycerin and hyaluronic acid) that help the skin hold water.

All of this is caused by excessive sebum (the substance that lubricates and waterproofs our skin). WHAT TO DO: If you have oily skin, you might be tempted to wash your face more often to rid it of excess oil and dirt. However, it’s important to still limit cleansing to no more than twice a day--washing too much can actually lead to even more oil production. You may want to try a foaming cleanser like Cetaphil PRO Oil Removing Foam Wash that’s specially formulated for oily skin. As for exfoliation, this removes dead skin cells and leaves skin looking brighter. People with oily skin can benefit from more frequent exfoliation (as often as once a day, provided you use a gentle scrub). Apply a light moisturizer once a day, and choose one that’s optimized for oily skin. The best moisturizer for this type of skin is one that’s light, easily absorbed and provides oil control such as Cetaphil® PRO Oil Control Moisturizer SPF 30. And when choosing any skin care product, be sure to choose one that is labelled “non-comedogenic”, meaning it’s formulated not to clog pores. Aside from moisturizer, use a sunscreen regularly and throughout the year.", "headerClass" : false, "fontColor" : "#5E656B" } }, { "id" : "b936023a84f339512486fac222", "type_id" : "commerce_assets.spacer", "data" : { "spacerSize" : "45" } }, { "id" : "6a7c2a7f0ec789de465b323ff2", "type_id" : "commerce_assets.htmlArea", "data" : { "htmlmarkup" : "3.

For example, you might find that your forehead, nose or chin (the area known as the T-zone) might be oily, but your cheeks are dry. This can make it bewildering to know which products to use to get the best results for combination skin. WHAT TO DO: The best step is to use a gentle cleanser, like Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser and stick with a moisturizer with oil-free hydrators such as hyaluronic acid and glycerin. Different parts of your face may need slightly different kinds of care (e.g. more frequent moisturization in dry areas, using light moisturizers in oily areas ),(8) so it’s best to observe how your skin reacts and stay with the routine that works best.   1 <a href=\"https://www.webmd.com/beauty/whats-your-skin-type\" target=\"_self\" data-link-type=\"external\"

Skin cells produce less collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, which are essential for maintaining the skin’s structure, hydration, and elasticity. As a result, the skin becomes thinner, drier, and less elastic and firm, leading to the formation of fine lines and wrinkles (1,2). To slow down the effect of aging, a good skin care regimen tailored to your skin type is essential. An effective routine can help to keep your skin hydrated, and help to reduce the signs of aging. Look out for anti-aging skin care products that help to improve skin elasticity and resiliency. Starting a good anti-aging skin care routine early in life can help establish healthy habits that will benefit your skin for years to come.

The skin barrier acts as a protective shield, helping to retain moisture by sealing in water within the skin and preventing it from evaporating, as well as protecting the skin from environmental stressors. A damaged or weakened skin barrier can result in increased moisture loss, leading to dryness, tightness, and flaking (2,3). Several factors can compromise your skin barrier and contribute to dry, flaky skin, especially on your face.4 These include excessive sun exposure and the natural aging process, as well as skin conditions like eczema. Harsh weather conditions, such as cold and dry air, can also strip the skin of its natural oils and worsen dryness and frequent washing with hot water and harsh soaps or cleansers can disrupt the skin barrier's integrity and contribute to dry skin (3).

While it's important to note that no single ingredient can guarantee eradication of flaky skin, incorporating these gentle ingredients into your skin care routine can help replenish your skin barrier and help to combat dryness. <h3>Niacinamide (Vitamin B3)</h3>Niacinamide, also known as vitamin B3, has a smoothing effect on the skin and helps to replenish your skin’s barrier function and reduce transepidermal water loss, which is often a common issue for dry skin types (5). <h3>Panthenol (Vitamin B5)</h3>Panthenol, derived from vitamin B5, is another ingredient that helps to smooth and soften your skin by helping to attract and retain moisture within the skin (4). <h3>Glycerin</h3>Glycerin often comes in the form of glyceryl or glycerol, and is one of the most common ingredients in cosmetic products. It is a powerful moisturizing agent and works by drawing moisture from the environment and binding it to the skin, creating a protective barrier that locks in hydration (2,6,7).", "headerClass" : false } }, { "id" : "01cf3227bc1ed80ca9d81cedff", "type_id" : "commerce_assets.spacer", "data" : { "spacerSize" : "45" } }, { "id" : "7fa03b7af07ab10e9d178fcb87", "type_id" : "commerce_assets.photoTile", "data" : { "image" : { "path" : "Optimized_GettyImages-1176489657.jpg", "focal_point" : { "x" : 0.5, "y" : 0.5 }, "meta_data" : { "height" : 666, "width" : 1000 } }, "fullBleed" : false, "photoAlign" : "Center", "alt" : "5_Tips_for_Taking_Care_of_Sensitive_Skin-3" } }, { "id" : "ce6903bb7b9cfe4ea489422a04", "type_id" : "commerce_assets.spacer", "data" : { "spacerSize" : "45" } }, { "id" : "53d2dbc994ded462b2ab684181", "type_id" : "commerce_assets.editorialRichText", "data" : { "textAlignMobile" : "center", "textAlign" : "Left", "richText" : "<h2>How to remove dry, flaky skin on your face</h2>", "headerClass" : false, "fontColor" : "#004987" } }, { "id" : "acaf56c752f92093b3cd5fc18b", "type_id" : "commerce_assets.editorialRichText", "data" : { "textAlignMobile" : "center", "textAlign" : "Left", "richText" : "In addition to moisturizing, maintaining proper hydration and using gentle products are essential for addressing dry, flaky skin. Achieving healthy-looking, hydrated skin is a journey that requires consistency and patience. Creating a skin care routine that focuses on gentle cleansing, moisturizing, and suitable serums, can greatly improve the condition of your skin. For a selection of facial moisturizers and serums suitable for dry, flaky skin, you can explore our <a href=\"https://www.cetaphil.ca/en/moisturizers/facial-moisturizers-serums\" target=\"_self\" data-link-type=\"category\" data-link-label=\"Face Moisturizers\" data-category-id=\"facial-moisturizers-serums\" data-category-catalog-id=\"storefront-galderma-ca\">facial moisturizers and serums page</a>. If you suffer from skin conditions such as eczema or dermatitis, using gentle products becomes even more crucial. These conditions can make the skin more sensitive and prone to dryness and itchiness. It's recommended to consult with a dermatologist for condition-specific advice and product recommendations tailored to your needs. <h3>Cleansers for dry, flaky skin</h3>Starting your skin care routine with a gentle cleanser formulated for dry skin that helps replenish your skin’s moisture barrier is crucial for dry, flaky skin. Unlike harsh cleansers, they won’t strip away your skin's natural oils and disrupt its delicate balance. Cleansers for dry skin focus on preserving moisture and keeping the skin barrier intact to prevent further dryness. Look for cleansers that are hydrating, fragrance-free, and help preserve your skin’s microbiome. The skin's microbiome refers to the diverse ecosystem of microorganisms that reside on your skin's surface (4). Certain cleansers, such as <a href=\"https://www.cetaphil.ca/en/cleansers/cetaphil-hydrating-cream-to-foam-cleanser/77261852841.html\" target=\"_self\" data-link-type=\"product\" data-link-label=\"77261852841\" data-product-id=\"77261852841\">Cetaphil Hydrating Cream-to-Foam Cleanser</a> and <a href=\"https://www.cetaphil.ca/en/cleansers/cetaphil-gentle-foaming-facial-cleanser/772618075403.html\" target=\"_self\" data-link-type=\"product\" data-link-label=\"772618075403\" data-product-id=\"772618075403\">Cetaphil Gentle Foaming Facial Cleanser</a>, are formulated to be gentle on the skin's microbiome, ensuring that the beneficial bacteria are not disrupted, and both are recognized products by the Canadian Dermatology Association’s Expert Advisory Board. <h3>Exfoliating dry, flaky skin</h3>Dry, flaky skin often has a build-up of dead skin cells on the surface, which can contribute to a dull complexion and hinder the absorption of moisturizers. Gentle exfoliation helps to slough off these dead cells, revealing a fresher and more radiant layer of skin underneath. This allows moisturizers, serums, and other skin care products to penetrate more effectively, maximizing their hydrating benefits for your skin (8). While exfoliation helps promote cell turnover, it's important to avoid harsh exfoliation methods because they can lead to further dryness and sensitivity (3). To incorporate gentle exfoliation into your skin care routine, you might want to consider using a product like <a href=\"https://www.cetaphil.ca/en/cleansers/extra-gentle-daily-scrub/772618075250.html\" target=\"_self\" data-link-type=\"product\" data-link-label=\"772618075250\" data-product-id=\"772618075250\">Cetaphil Extra Gentle Daily Scrub</a>. This scrub is specifically formulated to be gentle enough for daily use, helping to improve skin texture and reveal healthy-looking skin. <h3>Moisturizers for dry, flaky skin</h3>A high-quality facial moisturizer is a cornerstone for your dry skin to help protect your skin barrier. A strong skin barrier can better retain moisture and prevent water loss (2). Opt for moisturizers that are rich in emollients and humectants to help replenish and retain moisture in the skin, such as <a href=\"https://www.cetaphil.ca/en/moisturizers/daily-advance%C2%AE-ultra-hydrating-lotion/772618072279.html\" target=\"_self\" data-link-type=\"product\" data-link-label=\"772618072279\" data-product-id=\"772618072279\">Cetaphil Daily Advance® Ultra Hydrating Lotion</a> or <a href=\"https://www.cetaphil.ca/en/moisturizers/optimal-hydration-daily-glow-cream/772618090444.html\" target=\"_self\" data-link-type=\"product\" data-link-label=\"772618090444\" data-product-id=\"772618090444\">Cetaphil Optimal Hydration Daily Glow Cream</a>.
