Anti-aging:everything that really works! #2

Unsheath the anti-stain

The anti-aging effect:on skin that tends to pigment, spots appear very early (before age 30) and become more pronounced (in size and intensity). Here, the active ingredient best suited for prevention (as well as repair) is the little queen of antioxidants, alias Vitamin C. Bonus:it is an excellent anti-wrinkle ally and it evens out the complexion. As the sun is largely responsible for the appearance of spots (with the pill), always combine it with sun protection during the day. And don't forget the back of the hands and the neckline.

From when:from 20 years old if your parents are prone to spots and you have fair and particularly thin skin.

Frequency:morning and evening.

Smokers, choose AHAs

The anti-aging effect:as we know, cigarettes make the skin age (and not only) at high speed. Limit the damage with fruit acids (AHA or LHA). Their job? Stimulate cell renewal and collagen production thanks to their exfoliating action. A boost that restores radiance, both daily and in the long term. At the first application, you may feel a tingling sensation. If so, take it easy on getting the skin used to it:apply the cream every other day.

From when:25 years.

The frequency:if your skin tolerates the peeling effect well, switch to a daily application, preferably in the morning.
