Anti-aging face creams that really help (English)

Greetings, my wonderful readers. Agree that every woman dreams of prolonging youth and beauty for many years. Nowadays anti-aging cosmetics for the face are especially effective. This will be discussed in today’s article.

While preparing this article, I studied a lot of information on this topic on the Internet. And I was faced with a lot of contradictory statements. Some people believe that cheap cosmetics will not give any effect, while expensive ones are all hormonal and addictive. To understand all this, you need to understand how the means of different classes differ from each other.

Indications for the use of anti-aging creams

Indications for use are the appearance of the first signs of skin aging:

the tone of the facial muscles decreases;
age spots appear;
dull complexion – it looks “tired”;
due to the lack of fluid balance, the skin suffers from increased dryness;
the corners of the mouth droop;
wrinkles appear.

It is believed that the skin begins to age at about 25 years of age. But this does not mean that the morning after your 25th birthday you will wake up as an old woman. Aging is a gradual process. And it largely depends on the individual characteristics of the organism. Some people have elastic and beautiful facial skin even at 40 years old. For others, wrinkles and other signs of aging actively appear already at 28.

The age at which you should start using anti-age cosmetics varies from person to person. Now even cosmetic brands write that you should not focus on age. Better look at the condition of your skin.

Composition of anti-aging cosmetics

All anti-age products can be conditionally classified into one of the following groups:

cosmetics that stimulate the functioning of epidermal cells;
products containing silicone components;
“drugs” that smooth out pronounced facial wrinkles;
cosmetics with a masking effect (foundation is present here).

Anti-aging cosmetics for men and women contain a certain set of ingredients. One of the components is hyaluronic acid. This ingredient increases turgor and helps moisturize the skin.

In addition, anti-age cosmetic products should contain vitamins. In particular, retinol is found here, which smoothes out wrinkles. Plus, vitamins C and E neutralize radicals.

Thanks to AHA and BHA acids, rapid renewal of the epidermis occurs. And the sun protection factor protects the face from the negative effects of ultraviolet radiation.

How to use

Even the most effective professional cosmetics will not work properly if used incorrectly. Apply the cosmetic product to a dry face free of makeup and impurities.

I am sure that the tips below will help you with this. Watch the video instructions from a cosmetologist.

And yet, the day cream has a light texture. It is quickly absorbed. Therefore, after application, wait about 10 minutes, and then remove the residue with a dry cloth.

The night cosmetic product has a thicker consistency. It should be applied 1-2 hours before bedtime. Then the unabsorbed residues must be removed with a napkin.

Serum is also often present in the anti-aging series. Usually the instructions for this product indicate that it should be used with a cream from this series. That is, first you need to carefully massage the serum into the skin. After 10 minutes, you should apply the cream; it enhances the effect of the serum and prevents the evaporation of the active components.

To apply the mask, dermatologists advise using special brushes - this way you can spread a layer of the desired thickness. By the way, I have recommendations on how to make tightening masks. And yet, under no circumstances rub the mask in, it’s not a cream.

All cosmetics that are on sale can be divided into 3 groups. These are mass market products, pharmaceutical products for facial rejuvenation and professional cosmetics. I will describe the first two groups according to the brands of cosmetics they are looking for. I’ll have to write a separate post on professional cosmetics later.

Mass market cosmetics

Designed for the mass consumer. You can buy such products both in specialized stores and in a regular supermarket. This class includes most cosmetics sold through online sales.

These products belong to the lower and middle price segment. It is available to almost everyone. The rating is formed from inexpensive to more expensive and effective.

Black Pearl

There is a special series of “Self-rejuvenation” products. What can I say, the name is really loud. Anti-aging programs are divided by year - from 36 to 56 plus.

I’m impressed by the fact that they immediately offer a comprehensive approach to the problem - day + night + active serum. In products from 36 active ingredients are amino acids + vitamins E, C + oils. Hyaluronic acid and bio-peptides were added to products after 40 years (and after 50).

Of course, benefits are good, but it is important to make sure that there are no harmful ingredients in the composition. Unfortunately, these products contain methylparaben and ethylparaben, glycols, and silicones. According to reviews they write that it moisturizes well, but no special rejuvenation was noticed.

What I didn’t like was the packaging - everything is offered in cans. Tell me, how will you get a drop of cream? If you use your finger, you will spread the bacteria onto your face. Plus, due to the active influence of oxygen, the product has a shorter shelf life. Read the reviews and you will understand everything for yourself.

Nina: I bought the cream in the spring. I tried to use it as a daytime product. But he seemed a bit fat to me. Glistens on the face. I don't know, I wouldn't say it's a good option.

Lyudmila: I like the cream. But I only use it in winter, for summer it is greasy

Natalia: This cosmetics has a budget price. I used the cream from the self-rejuvenation +36 series. Until recently I thought that there would be a rejuvenating effect that was promised. But other than acne on my face, I didn’t see any effect.

Nivea

This brand also takes a comprehensive approach to the problem of wrinkles. They offer a tandem of day and night creams Q10 plus. According to the information, the products increase the level of coenzyme and keratin in the skin from the inside. The daytime product also has SPF 15, which is an added bonus. This cream prevents the appearance of wrinkles caused by solar activity.

The cream has a light texture. It perfectly moisturizes and does not leave a greasy film on the face. Makeup goes on well with day cream. It contains shea butter, macadamia butter, and panthenol. But again I give a big minus for the packaging - you need to reach into the jar with your fingers or a spoon.

Maria: For nutrition and hydration 5+. The cream copes with these functions perfectly. Not noticed in the fight against wrinkles.

Tatiana: During the first 2 weeks of use, the peeling on the skin disappeared. I’m no longer “sixteen” at all and there are already two wrinkles on my forehead. After two months of using the cream, these wrinkles have not changed at all. They have not decreased, they have not shrunk, they have not disappeared, although the wrinkles are very shallow. But the manufacturer promised that the cream “visibly reduces wrinkles.”

“Collagen” series from Libriderm

This is a Russian manufacturer, but it tries to make high quality products. The company produces a whole series of anti-aging cosmetic products called Collagen. It contains elastin, collagen, rice and camelina oils, plus an antioxidant in the form of vitamin E. And if you also make alginate face masks, you will immediately turn into a 20-year-old beauty 🙂

The volume of the cosmetic product is 50 ml. The product has a plastic dispenser - it dispenses cream in portions. No harsh fragrances. The cosmetic product has a gel-like, delicate consistency.

Inna: I like this cream during the cold season, it’s good for smoothing out the skin and feels fresh. Apply it and after 10 minutes you will see the result. It is quickly absorbed and does not leave a sticky, greasy film on the surface. In fact, this is the best cream I have tried.

Ksenia: Well, what can I say, after 20 days the skin became elastic. I can boast that the wrinkles have smoothed out a little)))

Olga: This is something, I didn’t expect such a wonderful result! Wrinkles have become barely noticeable, and the nasolabial lips are more elastic. The cream for the face, neck and décolleté really works.

Series "Renergie Multi-Lift" from Lancome

Cosmetics from this line provide deep lifting to all facial areas. The manufacturer does not link anti-aging care to a passport. It encourages you to focus on the needs of the skin. If you have wrinkles, an unclear oval face, or want to give your skin elasticity, this product is for you.

According to reviews, the series of products is gaining advantages. Before application, it is recommended to do light facial exercises, such as Japanese massage. But they write that it is better to use these creams in autumn and winter. Because they have a denser texture. The downside is that at this price you would expect a spatula to be included with the cream for scooping up the product.

Svetlana: After 3 weeks of use, skin elasticity has noticeably changed. The color evened out a little, there is a tendency towards seasonal pigmentation. The cream is instantly absorbed.

Rome: Although the consistency of the cream is thick, it is not felt on the face. The product perfectly moisturizes and nourishes the skin. The face looks fresher and younger))

Lyuba: The product perfectly moisturizes dry skin. In the morning I fall asleep without feeling tight. But I don’t understand the elevator effect.

Pharmacy cosmetics

These are not medicinal ointments that we are used to buying in pharmacies. This cosmetics was created to care for the sensitive skin of dermatological patients. The product also has a certain therapeutic effect. Pharmacy cosmetics occupy the middle “niche” between mass market and luxury cosmetics.

However, now some cunning companies have begun to actively promote their products through pharmacies. Now the assertion that pharmacy products are better than mass-market products is no longer relevant. Nowadays, pharmacies often sell the same things as in a cosmetic store or supermarket. This is how marketing defeated good 🙁

Cream Laura

A striking example of marketing cosmetics from the Evalar company. Contains peptides + hyaluronic acid. They say that even collagen injections can replace it. Suitable for 30 years old. It should be applied both morning and evening.

But the ingredients included the controversial emulsifier triethanolamine. Dermatologists do not recommend using it in creams. It is only allowed in products that are washed off the skin. The potential for adverse effects on the skin is too high.

Anna: I have never suffered from allergies, but after the cream Laura broke out in a rash. The second time I applied it, tears flowed freely. I took a 2-day break. I applied the same parsley again - my eyes watered.

Veronica: The wrinkles were and remain. For some reason, several pimples appeared, but in the end the appearance of the skin did not improve at all ((

Kate: The product is light, smells good, feels pleasant on the skin. But the expression wrinkles did not disappear.

Cream Astin

I can’t say anything about this miracle cream for 180 rubles. Interestingly, the manufacturer’s website does not contain the full composition. Only an indication of the most important component of ataxanthin. It is an antioxidant obtained from the microalgae Hematococcus. And it is 550 times better than vitamin E. But the reviews on the Internet are not very good. I found only one ode of praise. If this were a super remedy, then large manufacturers began to use it long ago.

Firming care SLOW AGE

This is really high-quality cosmetics with SPF 25 protection. This cream contains the antioxidant Baicalin. It acts in tandem with vitamins E + C, which neutralize the oxidation processes occurring in the epidermis. This cream also contains the probiotic Bifidus. This component strengthens the skin barrier, enhancing the protective functions of the epidermis.

According to the manufacturer, immediately after applying the cream, the face looks younger. In general, day after day, wrinkles and other signs of aging become less noticeable. I wrote a separate detailed article on it.

Korean and Japanese anti-aging cosmetics

I highlighted this cosmetics separately, since everything is not so clear with it. In recent years, these skincare products have become especially popular. Asian cosmetics from famous brands are of high quality. At the same time, it is much cheaper than premium cosmetics and professional brand products. In essence, Korean and Japanese cosmetics are a middle market.

And the products seem to be of high quality and inexpensive. It would seem, buy and use. But there is one “but”. European women have a slightly different type of skin aging than Asian women. Our skin is more often susceptible to allergic reactions and ages earlier. The withering process occurs according to the deformation or finely wrinkled type.

Although, now Asians have made a big leap in anti-aging products. They really have a lot of money. But here you need to seriously understand what suits you personally.

Therefore, my friends, who have tried a series of Japanese or Korean cosmetics, share your impressions. Which brand suited you and what was the result of using it.

I’ll tell you about a couple of the most widely used means:

Nourishing cream Black Caviar from Holika Holika - has a lifting effect. The cream contains black caviar extract and shea butter. The cosmetic product has a pleasant, rich texture. The set also includes a plastic spoon. According to reviews they write that after use the face becomes fresher and younger. The cream does not dry out the skin, and for some, nasolabial folds have even been smoothed out.
Cream from Mizon Collagen power firming - as the manufacturer writes, the cream contains as much as 54% collagen. Plus there is hyaluronic acid, cocoa extract, flower oils and other benefits. After a couple of weeks of use they write that the skin has become much better, more velvety. It did not clog pores and no oily shine was noticed. The cream moisturizes very well.

In today's article, I introduced you to just a few anti-aging products. There are still so many of them. I sincerely hope that today’s article helped you increase your knowledge in the field of anti-aging cosmetics. Share the link to the article with your friends. And don’t forget to subscribe to updates - I still have so many surprises in store for you. That's all for today: bye-bye!

Many women are interested in reviews of anti-aging face creams, which really help cope with the influence of age on appearance characteristics. Let's together understand the nuances of anti-age cosmetics, especially since there are a great variety of them on store shelves and pharmacies.

When should you use anti-aging creams?

The question is important and very “floating”, since a priori there are no specific age criteria that will regulate the start of using such cosmetics. Why? Yes, because everything is individual.

Physiology states that after 25 years, certain processes begin in the body, or rather, a slowdown in ongoing ones, which becomes the cause of aging. But this does not mean at all that the very next morning after the significant date you need to run headlong to the store and buy a cream with an anti-aging effect.

Aging and fading of facial skin is a very long process and occurs differently for everyone. One woman can boast of an impeccable appearance and the absence of wrinkles even at 40, while another already disguises “crow’s feet” at 28-30.

Therefore, cosmetologists and dermatologists advise starting to use such cosmetic products according to individual indicators. That is, by critically considering the condition of your skin according to the following criteria:

decreased tone of facial muscles;
the presence of pigment spots;
skin color and appearance – dull, grayish, “tired”;
presence of dryness and flaking;
drooping corners of the eyes and mouth;
the appearance of wrinkles.

As soon as you begin to notice such manifestations, you should start using anti-aging creams, selecting them according to your skin type, age indicator and mandatory components that must certainly be present in such cosmetics.

What should be included?

An anti-aging cream that is selected taking into account individual characteristics (skin type, age, related problems) can have a good rejuvenating effect. A very important set of ingredients that have an active effect not only on external manifestations, but also on internal processes in the cells of the epidermis and dermis.

These include:

hyaluronic acid is a natural component of the connective tissue of the human body. Moisturizes and ensures the maintenance of water balance of the skin;
vitamin complexes that take part in nutrition and the processes of protein synthesis;
vitamins A, E – antioxidants that protect against free radicals and slow down aging at the cellular level;
Natural essential and cosmetic oils deeply nourish, prevent moisture evaporation, and soften the epidermis. Please note that the presence of mineral oils can provoke the appearance of comedones (blackheads), blackheads and pimples, as they clog pores;
Coenzyme Q10 promotes the activation of tissue regeneration processes and slows down aging;
retinol is a type of vitamin A that affects the smoothness and softness of the skin and helps smooth out wrinkles;
collagen and elastin. But keep in mind that collagen molecules have a high specific gravity and cannot penetrate into cells. Therefore, you need to look for amino acids in the composition that will stimulate the natural processes of synthesis of these protein compounds by the body;
peptide complexes actively prevent the manifestations of age-related changes, accelerating metabolism in the epidermis and dermis;
UV filters protect the skin from ultraviolet radiation;
plant extracts help fight related problems - acne, pimples, blackheads, inflammation and others.

Naturally, it is almost impossible to find all these components in any product in its “full composition”. Yes, no one sets such a task for manufacturers. But at least a few must be present.

It is important to know! Anti-aging cosmetics come in a wide variety of products. You should have at least a few in your arsenal to achieve the desired result. Serums, day and night creams, products for washing, removing makeup, masks of various effects (nourishing, moisturizing, tightening), scrubs and peeling products. Caring for aging skin is a painstaking process that requires time, some effort and desire.

Did you know that you can make your own anti-aging cream? See the recipes below!

Rating of anti-aging creams that really help with reviews

As we have already said, anti-aging cosmetics exist for different ages. If you are over 30, then you should not resort to “heavy artillery”. At this age, it is enough to choose two good creams - day and night, which will nourish and moisturize the skin well.

After 40 years, you need a slightly different approach and products with more active ingredients. Salon procedures such as peeling and scrubbing will be useful.

For cosmetics that have a good anti-aging effect after 45 years, even more “strict selection” is required. Or rather, an even wider range of components in the composition. Choosing the right product can be quite difficult.

Therefore, a rating of anti-aging face creams after 45 and 50 with real consumer reviews will help you choose the most effective product.

For ages 45-50

According to cosmetologists, 45-50 years is the right time to use the entire range of products with an anti-age effect. But to achieve real results (and not only at this age), you need to know some secrets of using any caring cosmetics, in particular creams.

Cleansing. This is an important step that prepares the skin before applying the cream. It is necessary to completely remove decorative cosmetics and contaminants that get on the face from the environment. For these purposes, special foams, gels, washing sprays, micellar water, and lotions are used. Here the product must be selected individually, based on the condition and type of skin, and the presence of associated problems.
Cream. We choose two - day and night. The daytime one has a lighter consistency, a slightly different composition, is quickly absorbed and does not leave a greasy residue on the skin. Night - denser in texture, there are more active components and they perform other functions - deep hydration, nutrition, fight against existing defects (pimples, blackheads, inflammation).
At least once a week you need to use a scrub or peeling to remove dead particles of the epithelium, which at this age are difficult to peel off on their own. For oily skin, this procedure can be performed twice a week, for thin and sensitive skin - once every 10-14 days.

Cosmetologists strongly recommend using cosmetic products of the same brand for all these procedures, since the products will complement each other.

Now let’s move on directly to the review of creams with reviews from women.

Erborian Elixir of Youth - a highly concentrated serum that Korean medicine offers as an effective fight against age-related changes. Contains ginseng extract, astrogalus root and norichnik root, natural cosmetic oils, peptides, panthenol, lecithin. Manufacturers position their product as a unique product for any skin type. Apply to cleansed skin morning and evening. After it - a makeup base or night cream from the same company.

Elena, 46 years old, Moscow

“I’ve been using the serum for over a month now. The product is self-sufficient and does not require supplementation. The effect is cumulative. I noticed it about 10 days after regular use. Wrinkles around the eyes have noticeably smoothed out and nasolabial folds have become less pronounced. But I would not recommend applying BB cream from the same series after it, as the cosmetologist advised me. For me, combining these two remedies became a little difficult. Perhaps this approach will be appropriate for dry and normal skin, but for combination and oily skin it is not worth it.”

Yaroslava, 48 years old, Samara

“The Korean cosmetics industry has come a long way and the means of production are quite good. I have been using Elixir of Youth intermittently for quite some time. It copes very well with age-related changes, especially in the off-season, when vitamins are not enough. And also in stressful situations - it tones well, tightens, eliminates dullness and dullness of the face."

Japan Gals “3 Layers Collagen” moisturizer. Due to the presence of three types of collagen, it has an excellent moisturizing, regenerating and tightening effect. P-collagen protects the skin from external factors, retains moisture in the deep layers of the epidermis, and helps maintain water balance. PF micro-collagen stimulates regeneration processes, which helps improve skin turgor. F-nano-collagen has an extremely small molecule size, which makes it possible to penetrate into the deep layers of the dermis and stimulate the production of its own collagen fibers.

Maria, 45 years old, Ryazan

“I encountered the signs of age quite early - I have very dry, flaky skin. This cream really helped to cope with the problem. It moisturizes well and keeps your face fresh throughout the day. The cream has a light texture, is well absorbed, and does not leave sticky or greasy marks.”

Olga, 47 years old, Tver

“I don’t understand the effect of collagens, which are indicated on the packaging as part of the product. But it moisturizes well. It is very easy to apply to the skin and absorbs perfectly. Excellent as a base for makeup"

L'Oreal Revitalift - a unique product with hyaluronic acid, which is deservedly popular among millions of women around the world. It has a lifting effect and has a prolonged, cumulative effect. In addition to hyaluronic acid, it contains plant extracts and vitamin complexes.

Valentina, 48 years old, Omsk

“I advise everyone who doesn’t want to see their face covered in wrinkles in the mirror to use this miracle cream.”

Oksana, 45 years old, Vorkuta

“French cosmetologists are, after all, the world’s first magicians. You won't find a better product if you want to look your best. A little expensive, but you’re on your own.”

Mirra Biotechnology belongs to the class of cosmeceuticals, that is, a cosmetic product with a healing effect and the presence of peptides, ceramides and fermented oils that actively resist the aging process. You can purchase such products only in certified salons.

Lyudmila, 49 years old, Syzran

“After using this cream, I began to notice that my skin really became more elastic and fresh. The wrinkles in the corners of the eyes have become less noticeable, but the nasolabial folds are still there. I continue to use it in the hope of a cumulative effect.”

Tatyana, 48 years old, Yakutsk

“Cold, wind and other disasters for which our region is famous cannot but affect the condition of the skin. And this cream became a godsend for me. It moisturizes, gives the skin elasticity, freshness and protects from the outside world, which sometimes has a very bad effect on our body, and in particular on the face.”

Filorga Time. The composition of the product is hyaluronic acid, peptides, vitamins and plant extracts. The smell is fresh and delicate, unobtrusive. The texture is light for both day and night cream. It is positioned as a deeply moisturizing, nourishing and wrinkle-smoothing product that combats sagging skin and sagging facial contours.

Karina, 45 years old, St. Petersburg

“On the advice of a cosmetologist, I bought Filorga to solve my problems with my face - wrinkles, flabby, dry skin, dull color, flaking. I was surprised how quickly and effectively the purchased creams dealt with such a heap of obvious problems.”

Victoria, 49 years old, Moscow

“I'm not very happy with this cream. It moisturizes and nourishes, but the wrinkles remain the same. So the manufacturer did not keep all of its promises.”

For category 50+

The best anti-aging anti-aging creams in the 50+ category, according to reviews from women who have used the products.

“Black Pearl” series “Self-rejuvenation”. The line consists of day, night, eye cream, biolifting, BB tinting cream. Contains hyaluronic acid, peptides, coenzyme, plant extracts and natural oils. Well moisturizes and nourishes the skin, fights dull pigmentation, smoothes fine wrinkles and makes deep wrinkles less noticeable, gives the skin a fresh and well-groomed appearance.

Irina, 56 years old, Surgut

“Black pearls moisturize, nourish, even out color, but wrinkles remain in place and as bright as they were”

The daily product has a light texture, is quickly absorbed, and is suitable as a base for makeup. The night cream is thicker, but does not leave greasy marks and does not require removal of residue. Well moisturizes, nourishes, fights pigmentation, protects against the harmful effects of external factors.

Natalya, 50 years old, Ramenskoye

“I was pleased with the cream from Lumine, although this cosmetics was not always suitable for me. But the 50+ series is just right. The smell is soft, delicate, the texture of both creams is pleasant, not heavy. After using it, my face looks younger and looks fresh and radiant.”

Alevtina, 58 years old, Krasnodar

“Apparently, it’s too late to rely only on creams. Lumine was recommended to me by a friend, but I can’t share her enthusiasm yet. I won’t lie, there is an effect, but I expected more. It’s probably time to go to the salon for more radical procedures.”

La Prairie is a representative of premium Swiss cosmetics. The high price is fully justified by the impeccable quality of the product. Contains natural oils, herbal extracts, antioxidant complexes, peptides.

Alla, 52 years old, Ivanovo

“Although expensive, it is effective. The skin is velvet. Wrinkles just melt away, the face is smooth, radiant, toned.”

Lyubov, 55 years old, Moscow

“Don’t skimp on your appearance, girls. If, of course, you want to be called girls as long as you want it. Sorry for the tautology. And this cream will work a miracle, you just need to use it regularly and comprehensively.”

Cream “Regenerating & Restoring Moisturizing Cream” from Fresh Line from the “Gera” series. The product is positioned by the manufacturer as natural, containing only natural ingredients - plant extracts and essential oils.

Violetta, 54 years old, Kemerovo

“It’s not a bad product, but the promised effectiveness is not observed. Moisturizes, absorbs well, behaves well under makeup. Doesn’t remove wrinkles, pigmentation only partially.”

Anna, 50 years old, Moscow

“As for me, this is a completely good product, especially in the cooler seasons. In the heat it’s a little heavy, you need something lighter. But as a night care, it’s quite suitable at any time of the year.”

The manufacturer indicates the presence of youth plant cells and rice peptides in the composition, which have a complex effect on mature skin that has pronounced signs of aging.

Almost every woman dreams of prolonging her beauty and youth for many, many years. Some people believe that genetics determines everything and take absolutely no measures.

Another category of the female population actively uses all the achievements of the modern beauty industry: salon procedures, injections, injections, serums and creams.

So are there any anti-aging creams for facial skin care that really help, what is their rating and what reviews do women leave about such products when purchasing these products in pharmacy chains and cosmetic stores? Let's try to figure it out.

The principle of action of products for aging skin

This cosmetic product can solve several common problems at once:

remove facial wrinkles;
reduce the number and depth of large wrinkles;
tighten the facial contour;
provide adequate hydration to the skin;
rid us of crow's feet;
improve complexion;
protect the skin from the harmful effects of ultraviolet rays, wind, frost, and poor environmental conditions.

Of course, the product has this effect due to its special composition, which may contain the following components:

Hyaluronic acid penetrates into the deepest layers of the skin, thereby guaranteeing excellent hydration and smoothing wrinkles;
Vitamins A and E saturate the epidermis with useful substances, protect against free radicals, preventing further aging;
Natural oils in cosmetics perfectly nourish the epidermis, but you should pay attention to the fact that mineral oil should be avoided, as it clogs pores and provokes the appearance of blackheads;
Coenzyme Q10 activates regenerative processes in cells, prolonging your youth;
Collagen is a very important protein in the human body, the production of which decreases significantly with age;
Retinol is another form of vitamin A that has a smoothing effect;
Peptides help restore aging skin to its original state;
Vitamin C is involved in the synthesis of collagen in cells, increases elasticity and firmness.

Top best products

After 30 years + customer opinion

If you are a little over 30, then you shouldn’t resort to radical measures yet, it’s better to choose 2 creams: well moisturizing for the day and nourishing for the night, which will prevent the appearance of the first wrinkles and provide you with proper care.

“I’ve been using Clarence Multi Active for 2 years now, I really like its moisturizing properties and soft composition. But I don’t think it will have much effect on wrinkles, so I plan to look for a new favorite in the near future.”
Nika:

It is almost impossible to avoid skin changes after 50 years. And many of the creams that helped us before suddenly suddenly become ineffective. Therefore, we advise you to take a closer look at the series of luxury and premium anti-aging cosmetics, which have the most effective ingredients and can really change the condition of your skin.

La Prairie

A product in the premium segment, the high price of which is fully justified. After all, it perfectly removes facial wrinkles, helps to significantly reduce deep wrinkles, tightens the relief and gives skin tone. And of course, there is no doubt about its impeccable operating composition.

Daria:

“My mother is 63 years old and has never used any creams. Her skin is dry and has few wrinkles. I have already tried to buy her a lot of expensive cosmetics, but it was all in vain. And then she herself bought herself Anti-age cream “Black Pearl”. Of course, at first I doubted its results for such a low cost, but it really appeared - the face became smoother, there were fewer wrinkles, and the skin was perfectly hydrated.”

It is worth approaching the fight against age-related changes thoroughly and comprehensively. Vichy Neovadiol cream will help you with this.

How to choose the best and most effective drugs

First of all, pay attention to the composition of the product. Useful components such as coenzyme, vitamins, hyaluronic acid, peptides should be at the top of the list. The earlier a certain substance is indicated on the label, the more of it there is in the composition.

That is, if, for example, incredibly healthy avocado oil is in the last place in the composition of your cream, then there is a minimal amount of it and it will not be able to have any significant effect.

The age at which this product can be used is also not written on the packaging just like that.

Many creams, especially professional brands, contain many active ingredients that stimulate collagen production.

But its production decreases only with age, and if you start stimulating it earlier, the skin will stop doing its direct work. Therefore, if the jar says 50+, and you are only 30, under no circumstances buy such a cream, no matter how impressive the result it promises!

And of course, also focus on your skin type and select cosmetics according to it.

Many people think that creams do not help cope with age-related skin changes and begin to inject Botox at the age of 30. In fact, this is not so; good products perfectly restore skin functions and improve its appearance thanks to their unique modern compositions developed in the best laboratories.
