Skin maturityWhat defines skin maturity:’Pro-skin’ products come with the intention slowing down or mitigating the signs of aging. Skin maturity is the unavoidable process that happens to everyone. We all get a bit older as the days roll by – just don’t forget that age is just a number ♥In the absence of disease, the normal aging process leads to functional and structural change, comprising of physical, psychological, social aspects that take place over a life span.What causes skin maturity:The progression of life will start to show signs of skin maturity. Although accelerated aging can be caused from stress, disease, environmental surroundings, boredom, toxic exposure, poor diet, lack of movement.Aging timeline and the skin: Late 20s-30s finer lines start to appear. Smile and worry lines are settling in at this time, so it’s important to think about what your face is expressing on a daily basis. The 40s see these lines deepen, and will always be present. Elasticity in the skin reduces, pores enlarge and skin tone and colour may become lighter and uneven. 50+ is when the skin starts to sag, becoming thinner and drier. This is due to a natural drop in osteogren levels. Accumulative sun damage and age spots will also become more apparent at this time. The skin bruises and is damaged more easily.What to do to relieve the symptoms of skin maturity:Our skin will always reflect what’s happening to us on the inside, both physically and emotionally. Make sure you keep in good health by staying active, eating smaller meals that are highly nutritious, and drinking plenty of water. Protect your skin from the sun and remember that a mind-lift beats a face-lift any day.
