From the age of 25, it's not uncommon to see the first wrinkles appear. Often located in the most stressed areas of the face, such as the nasolabial fold, the outer corner of the eyes, or the forehead, these first signs of aging can push us to change our beauty routine and opt for anti-aging treatments, but is it really necessary?

While a change in routine may be in order, it might not be the one you had in mind. Say goodbye to rich, collagen-based anti-wrinkle creams and other treatments meant to combat sagging skin, which are reserved for more mature skin. At thirty, the first anti-aging steps are very different.

Moisturize the skin daily

Most often, the fine lines we see on the skin at this age are actually dehydration wrinkles caused by insufficient water intake. To reduce them, use a daily moisturizing serum and opt for active ingredients known for their absorbent properties, such as hyaluronic acid, which can retain up to 1,000 times its weight in water. Applied morning and evening to clean skin, the serum gives the skin a shot of hydration and prepares it for your skincare routine.

Find the right moisturizer. This essential step will help protect your skin from external aggressions and keep it hydrated throughout the day. While moisturizer is important, you also need to find the right product for your skin type.

If your skin is dry and uncomfortable, a rich moisturizer with an enveloping texture will be ideal. The Adaptogenic Moisturizing Cream from the Source range , for example, is formulated with two adaptogenic plants and enriched with hyaluronic acid. It is recommended for normal to dry skin lacking comfort. Conversely, if you have combination skin, a moisturizing jelly will be more suitable because it won't weigh down the skin and will be quickly absorbed.

Cleansing, an anti-aging gesture

It can't be stressed enough: cleansing your skin is an essential step in your routine. It's important to remove makeup and cleanse your skin every night before going to bed to rid it of pollution residue, sunscreen, and all the impurities accumulated during the day. We recommend opting for a double cleanse, which consists of using a makeup remover oil followed by a gentle cleansing gel which will complete the cleaning.

Sun protection, the first anti-aging reflex

The sun is the primary factor in skin aging, a condition known as photoaging. Indeed, the sun's UVA rays trigger the formation of free radicals and damage cellular DNA. It is this oxidative stress that most often leads to premature skin aging.

Our first recommendation is to use sunscreen all year round, regardless of the season. Applied after your day cream or already present in your tinted cream, for example, this sunscreen will protect the skin against harmful rays. While this protection is sufficient for daily use, we recommend reapplying your sunscreen several times a day in case of prolonged sun exposure.

All our tinted creams contain a higher or lower SPF depending on your skin type. Our anti-redness CC Cream, which is designed for the most sensitive skin, contains SPF 50, while the Perfecting Tinted Cream, designed for combination skin with imperfections, has an SPF 30, ideal for daily use.

Retinol, the active ingredient to adopt?

Retinol is a very powerful active ingredient that stimulates fibroblasts, the cells in the dermis responsible for collagen production. By producing more collagen, the skin is more supple, plumper, and wrinkles are gradually smoothed. We recommend using an anti-wrinkle cream with retinol at night to start with or as a short course of treatment to avoid sensitizing the skin and combining its use with a moisturizing routine.

This is what the Smooth range offers: a selection of skincare products containing retinol and enriched with moisturizing active ingredients. The Smooth treatment, for example, contains retinol as well as a duo of hyaluronic acids that will keep your skin hydrated while fighting the appearance of the first signs of aging.
