Attention to all women over the age of 50: this article is for you, offering advice on how to achieve well-nourished, healthy, and glowing skin. Let’s dive into it!
1. Prioritize Organic Skincare
Switching to 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, on the other hand, are formulated with natural and plant-derived ingredients, so they’re 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. 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 oils and oil-based products you choose contain only natural and unrefined 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.
Therefore the oil-based products recommended in this post are made from the highest-quality cold-pressed, and unrefined oils.Â
3. Switch to Oil-Based Vitamin C Serum
Oil-based Vitamin C is more stable and more potent than water-based serums. Plant Mother’s Vitamin C serum is 100% organic and oil-based vitamin C with over 200 fresh, plant-derived antioxidants. Its main botanical is Kakadu Plum – having 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. Plant Mother’s powerful Vitamin C gives your skin the perfect level of brightening and nutrition (and it’s oil-based!). It is made for mature skin as it helps fade dark spots, and promote collagen production.
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. Plant Mother’s Retinol Serum is organic and oil-based, made with nutritious botanical oils that don’t irritate the skin. It’s been formulated specifically for dry aging skin. This serum combats fine lines and wrinkles without the ugly side effects of harsh synthetic retinols (redness, peeling, or sun sensitivity).
The serum’s superhero ingredients are Bakuchiol, Sea Buckthorn seed and pulp oil (the King and Queen of anti-aging skincare). These ingredients are blended with powerful rejuvenating botanicals – hibiscus, passion fruit, rosehip, and prickly pear.Â
You should use this Retinol overnight and the Plant Mother’s wonderful vitamin C serum during the day. You can save 25% by buying these two together!
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 an organic eye serum (more powerful than the cream!) that contains ingredients like antioxidants and carotenoids to reduce the appearance of fine lines and nourish your dry skin.Â
Again, choose organic, plant-based and oil-based eye serum, packed with antioxidants and vitamins that will nourish and repair your under eye skin. Gently apply the product with your ring finger, using tapping motions to avoid unnecessary tugging or pulling.Â
6. 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 regular 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.
7. Choose Healthy Non-Toxic Skincare
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. Non-toxic products are formulated with gentle, nourishing ingredients that support skin health, ensuring a radiant complexion in your golden years.
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. Schedule a baseline evaluation with your dermatologist now.
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 hormonal skin discolorations.
Make sure your SPF is biodegradable and reef-safe – and remember to always choose organic and non-toxic products!
10. Practice Facial Exercises
A less-known tip for aging skin is the benefit of facial exercises. Just as exercise helps tone and strengthen the body’s muscles, facial exercises can help maintain muscle tone and firmness in the face.Â
Regularly practicing facial yoga or exercises designed for facial muscles can be a natural and non-invasive way to complement your skincare routine as you age.
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.
Hand cream should be your new best friend! Look for something rich with antioxidants and maybe even a touch of SPF.
