1. Prioritize Healthy Skincare
Switching to healthy, organic skincare products becomes increasingly important when you’re over 50 due to several reasons. First, as our skin matures, it tends to become more sensitive to harsh chemicals and synthetic ingredients commonly found in conventional skincare products. Organic skincare products are less likely to irritate or dry out your skin.
Second, organic products often contain high concentrations of nutrients, which can repair aging skin, improving its overall health. This is especially important during menopause when you experience hormonal imbalances – switching to organic products will help eliminate endocrine disruptors that come with non-organic products.
2. Choose Non-Toxic Ingredients
As we enter our 50s, the need for non-toxic skincare becomes increasingly essential. Our skin’s ability to regenerate and repair itself diminishes with age, making it more vulnerable to the harmful effects of toxins found in many skincare products.Â
Opting for non-toxic skincare helps reduce the risk of irritation and breakouts, allowing your skin to age well. That’s a perfect reason to get a good nourishing serum to repair your skin barrier and brighten your skin.Â
3. Switch to Oil-Based Vitamin C Serum
Oil-based Vitamin C is more stable and potent than water-based serums. Plant Mother’s Vitamin C serum is a unique oil-based vitamin C made with fresh, plant-based antioxidants. It contains Kakadu Plum that has the highest amount of Vitamin C, 55x more than oranges!Â
Unlike many Vitamin C serums, this one doesn’t burn or irritate your skin. It gives you the perfect brightening and nutrition (and it’s oil-based!). Plant Mother’s Vitamin C pairs beautifully with a niacinamide serum to brighten and strengthen the skin barrier.
4. STAY AWAY FROM HARSH RetinolS
Retinol is a great anti-aging ingredient. However, not all retinols are the same! Avoid prescription strength retinols, they can dry out your skin and cause irritation. Choose a plant-based Retinol Serum made with nutritious botanicals that won’t irritate the skin.
Plant Mother’s Retinol serum has been formulated specifically for sensitive skin. This serum rejuvenates the skin and strengthens your skin barrier without the ugly side effects of harsh synthetic retinols (redness, peeling, or sun sensitivity).
5. Focus on the Eye Area
The delicate skin around the eyes requires special attention. Especially if you’re over 50, you’ll start experiencing crow’s feet and crepey dry skin around your eyes. Use a nourishing eye serum (more powerful than the cream!) that contains ingredients like antioxidants and carotenoids to reduce the appearance of fine lines and feed your dry skin.Â
Again, choose organic, plant-based and oil-based eye serum, packed with antioxidants and vitamins that will repair your under eye skin.Â
6. Start Using Face Oils
Talking about oil-based products, as we age, our skin experiences a decline in natural oil production and cell turnover, leading to increased dryness. This is particularly noticeable during and after menopause. Therefore, in your 50s and later in life, you should incorporate face oils and oil-based products.Â
Make sure oil-based products you choose contain only natural and unrefined (virgin) botanical oils. These provide nourishment and help replenish the natural oils that decline with age. Avoid mineral and refined oils because they’re are stripped from nutrients.
7. Don't Forget Neck and Décolletage Care
While facial skincare often takes center stage, it’s important not to neglect the neck and décolletage areas. These areas can show signs of aging and sun damage just like the face. Extend your skincare routine beyond the face by applying your skincare products, including serums, and sunscreen, to the neck and décolletage.Â
Additionally, consider using specialized neck treatments that target sagging skin and age spots in these areas.
8. Prioritize Skin Cancer Prevention
Prioritize skin protection and early detection. You should have regular full-body skin exams by a certified dermatologist to safeguard against skin cancer. If there’s a family history or you’ve had sun damage in the past, consider more frequent check-ups.Â
Catching precancerous signs early is easier and prevents future consequences.Â
9. Use Biodegradable SPF
Wearing SPF daily is very important. If you’re over 50, it’s even more important because it’ll prevent appearance of age spots, melasma, and other skin discolorations.
Make sure your SPF is biodegradable and reef-safe – and remember to always choose organic and non-toxic products!
10. bonus tip: DON'T FORGET YOUR HANDS!
You know, after 50, our hands really start to show our age. It’s easy to forget about them, but they’re constantly exposed to the elements.Â
Hand cream should be your new best friend! Look for something rich with antioxidants and SPF.
