The first signs of ageing tend to appear in our mid 20s, with lines appearing around our eyes and mouth.  However in our opinion, the most visible sign of ageing skin is a change in texture – that youthful glow and plumpness starts to fade.

There are many different factors that can cause ageing in your skin.  However, the root cause is normally cellular inflammation. Naturally, we all suffer from this inflammation, more so as we get older.

Unfortunate reality check here - lifestyle plays a huge part in this process. If you are a dedicated sun-worshipper who can’t say no to a glass of rose wine (no judgement here - have you tried Whispering Angel?!) your skin will inevitably age faster as both of these activities cause significant cellular inflammation. However, other factors including lack of sleep, bad weather, hormones and stress all play their part too.

With all of this being said, try not to worry too much (worrying causes wrinkles, don’t you know!)

There are things that you implement into your daily routine that can help prevent and reverse this inflammation.

  • Using good quality skincare that contains high levels of low molecular weight ingredients is a good place to start. These teeny-tiny molecules can pass through the layers of your skin from top to bottom and replace lost moisture in cells.

  • Cleanse your skin… and I mean CLEANSE. With a warm flannel and good quality balm or oil. No excuses!

  • Use an exfoliating acid regularly to remove the dull surface of your skin – this also increases blood flow. Hello, bright and bouncy skin!

  • Using products with high levels of bio-organic and anti-inflammatory ingredients will help repair damage. Natural and essential oils are still the best way to achieve this (even though it sounds a bit “hand knitted”!)

  • Have regular treatments, including extensive facial massage – this will have a huge impact on your skin. Just watch your skin glow!

Final note - It’s just so very important to treat your skin with the respect it deserves. You only get one face in this lifetime, and spending money to maintain your skin health is a worthy investment. Good skin health can have a huge impact on how we feel about ourselves and having a glowing, healthy complexion is a great place to start.
