How to protect your skin
against premature skin ageing

In today's world, our skin is constantly exposed to a variety of environmental factors that can accelerate the skin ageing process. Premature skin ageing is a growing concern for many, especially those who care about their skin's appearance and health. While ageing is a natural process, several factors can lead to premature skin ageing and a science-based anti-ageing skincare routine is a good way to delay the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. The three causes of premature skin ageing in today’s world are Pollution, UV rays, and Blue light emitted from electronic devices.

Cause 1 : Pollution

Pollution is a major cause of premature skin ageing today. It's not just outdoor pollution that affects the skin, but indoor pollution caused by air conditioning and heating are just as damaging to the skin. Pollution affects the skin by producing free radicals that break down collagen and elastin fibers, leading to wrinkles, fine lines, and pigmentation spots. The skin can also become dehydrated, dull, and prone to inflammation.

How to prevent Pollution induced skin ageing?

One way to prevent premature skin ageing caused by pollution is to cleanse your skin thoroughly everyday once or twice. Use a gentle cleanser that's specifically formulated to remove pollutants and impurities from your skin without stripping it of its natural oils. Additionally, some ingredients such as Moringa seed extract, antioxidants like Vitamin C and E can help neutralize the free radicals caused by pollution, preventing damages to your skin. Mousse Aérienne Visage from our START collection is a gentle foam cleanser with anti-pollution benefits. Look for skincare products that contain these ingredients or targeted anti-pollution skincare products for to protect against premature skin ageing caused by pollution.

Cause 2 : UV rays

UV rays are another significant factor contributing to premature skin ageing. Exposure to UV radiation from the sun can cause DNA damage in the skin cells, leading to premature skin ageing. Over time, this damage can result in fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, and even skin cancer. It’s important to incorporate skincare that offers UV protection into your daily skincare routine to prevent premature skin ageing.

How to prevent premature skin ageing caused by UV rays?

One of the most effective ways to prevent premature skin ageing caused by UV rays is to wear sunscreen every day. Choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen that offers protection against both UVA and UVB rays and offers at least SPF 30 for everyday use. These days skincare products are available with a PA rating which indicates the level of protection against UVA rays. Apply a moisturiser with SPF to your face and neck every morning, alone or on top of your regular cream, even on cloudy days. When spending extended time outdoors, make sure to apply generously to all exposed areas; including your face, neck, and hands to protect your skin against premature skin ageing. Beware of summer sun, when you're outside during peak sun hours (between 10 am – 4 pm). Seek shade whenever possible, and avoid tanning beds, which emit harmful UV rays that can cause skin damage and increase your risk of skin cancer.

Cause 3 : Blue Light

Blue light from electronic devices, such as smartphones, tablets, laptops and television, is a relatively new cause of premature skin ageing. Blue light penetrates the skin more deeply than UV rays and can cause oxidative stress, leading to premature skin ageing. Blue light can also disrupt the skin's natural circadian rhythm, leading to sleep disturbances and other health issues.

How to prevent premature skin ageing caused by blue light?

One way to prevent premature skin ageing caused by blue light is to limit your screen time. If that's not possible, consider using a blue light filter or screen protector on your devices. Additionally, applying a moisturiser or serum with specific ingredients such as peptides derived from Cacao Criollo Porcelana, antioxidants like Vitamin C and E can help neutralize the free radicals caused by blue light, protecting your skin from oxidative stress and preventing premature skin ageing.
