Looking after your skin in your 20's
Your 20’s are a great time for your skin. You've left behind the adolescence acne and your skin has a radiant, youthful glow and the epidermis is well toned.
80 per cent of all ageing can be directly related to exposure to sunlight. Therefore, it is a good idea to avoid the mid-day sun, or if you have to be out in the heat of the day, than cover up. Penetrating UVA rays will start to damage collagen fibres and elastin coils in your skin.
Smoking is one factor you can control and now would be a good time to quit. Smoking inhibits oxygen getting to the outer layer of your skin and has a premature ageing effect. In addition, smoking can cause fine lines around the mouth over the years and this is to be avoided if you want to keep your good looks.
Looking after your skin in your 30's
By now you should have established a daily skincare regime that involves exfoliating, cleansing, moisturising and sun protection for your skin. In your 30s, it's important to maintain a balanced diet consisting of fresh fruits, vegetables, grains and fish, which are high in antioxidants such as Vitamins A, B, C and E. These Vitamins counteract free radicals in your body that help the skin to repair itself, produce the enzymes that stabilise collagen production, and stay moist and healthy. For further protection, try using a Moisturiser with SPF 30+, such as one that contains vitamin E, for example: Deluxe Skin Care Face Cream Moisturiser SPF 30+.
Alcohol should only be consumed in moderation as it deprives your skin of vital nutrients and may cause your facial blood vessels to become dilated leading to permanent, red spider veins on your cheeks and in men often across the nose.
Maintaining well hydrated tissues by drinking plenty of water each day is vital to retain moisture in your skin. In addition, you should ensure that you get enough quality sleep.
