Gravity is your greatest enemy, as you begin to notice less elasticity and firmness, as well as sunken, slackening and sagging skin. Dehydration can also exacerbate fine lines into deeper grooves. Here’s what you need to help your skin.
Gravity is your greatest enemy, as you begin to notice less elasticity and firmness, as well as sunken, slackening and sagging skin. Dehydration can also exacerbate fine lines into deeper grooves. Here’s what you need to help your skin.
1. Anti-ageing booster
If you find that serums are no longer intensive enough for your skin, trade up. Many ampoules offer higher concentrations of potent ingredients in smaller molecule sizes for greater efficacy.
CNP Laboratory Propolis Energy Ampule ($40.90), is enriched with propolis from the Amazon bee to supposedly give noticeable tightening, firming and lifting results.
2. Retinol fix
A powerful anti-ageing ingredient, retinol is said to be able to boost collagen and elastin production for a visible lifting effect. Try Hada Labo Retinol Anti-aging + 3D Lifting Lotion ($25.90), which is formulated with pharmaceutical-grade retinol, as well as hydrolysed collagen and hyaluronic acid to fight premature ageing.
3. Skin-energising facial
If your skin is chronically fatigued, revive it with cutting-edge technology. SK-II Boutique Spa Senze Renewal Proionic Facial ($480 for 85 minutes) uses an advanced radio frequency machine to reportedly improve lymphatic drainage, lift sagging skin and recontour your face.
The heat energy also enhances the penetration of SK-II’s signature products, while the soporific scalp and shoulder massages relax and restore you sublimely.
4. Scar lightener
Your natural wound repair process also slows down at this stage. Remescar Silicone Scar Stick ($30) promises to accelerate the healing of acne scars, stretch marks, bug bites and even burns.
It protects delicate skin, infusing it with moisture for speedy recovery, while supposedly preventing skin thickening around the wound to reduce the appearance of the scar.
5. Spider veins treatment
As you age, your veins lose elasticity, and the valves weaken, allowing blood to flow backwards and pool in your veins. This results in spider veins.
Remescar Spider Veins ($40), reportedly creates a protective shield over the affected area, while accelerating the healing process, repairing weak vein tissues, and reducing any discoloration to minimise the appearance of spider veins.
