-1- USE LED LIGHT DEVICES


Get noticeable and natural anti-aging results in as Little as 10 minutes. Since I have led light device making part of my skincare routine, I feel huge difference on my complexion. LED light therapy promotes anti-aging effects and reduces inflammation. Gives an increase in the amount of collagen in the skin, which reduces the appearance of wrinkles and other stigmata of aging. Acne, dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, scarring and sun damage- LED light devices helps treat it all.

Cons: with the time, more frequent charging is needed.

-2- DO MICRO-NEEDLING


Micro-needling, often referred to as dermarolling or collagen induction therapy, is where thousands of tiny little needles pierce into the surface of your skin via a rolling or stamping device. One of the benefits of using the Derma Roller is that it helps to stimulate new cell growth while also boosting the collagen and elastin required to smooth the lines and wrinkles. To take your results to the next level, use products that target hydrating, healing, and increasing collagen production. Post-rolling, serums with peptides and ceramides can help to further boost the anti-aging process. The best thing you can do on post-rolling is to use a sheet mask or overnight cream mask + LED light device mask. I use this kind of routine 4-5 per week. Results are really amazing! No time for the masking? I just apply my favorite serum, do derma roller little bit over the serum, and then moisturizer.


To have permanent results use repeated rolling 3-5 times per week. Do it at nighttime before the sleep, because your skin will need time to repair itself, and is not susceptible to sun damage. The microscopic wounds you create should heal within 15-30 minutes, but derma rolling at night assures your skin gets the proper rest it needs. The longer the needles, the deeper the wound — and that means the longer the recovery time. Never make your skin bleed, do slight movements when rolling.

If you're sticking to the evening regime, before the micro-needling, you may want to consider double cleansing to get rid of oil and all the dirt that's built up on your skin during the day.


Because water is essential to the collagen-creation process, hydration is so important around the micro-needling procedure. So, glass of water before and after will give you much better results. By the way, this is great time to drink your collagen powder!


It is extremely important that the next morning, after the pm routine with micro-needling, before going out, you apply your fave sunscreen, with at least SPF30.

Derma rollers can be found online. You don’t need to overcomplicate things and get an expensive one. The cheaper ones will work just fine, like Brushworks HD Micro Needle Derma Roller great to start with, on Lookfantastic PT is for only €5.29 (if used code - DD2022)


 

-3- SPLASH YOUR SKIN WITH COLD WATER


Take a cold shower every morning to boost Dopamine and Serotonin, and increase energy levels... Or just splash your face with cold water for 5-10 seconds to reduce the fine lines and wrinkles on your face considerably. It also helps refresh the skin, and take care of dullness. Cold water can give the face a new lease of life, you can say.

Since cold water tightens the pores, bacteria and debris can get trapped and won’t clear out as easily as using warm water, so it´s recommended to wash the face with lukewarm water first as a way to remove any makeup and pollutants from the day, and only then, end with a ice-cold water to tighten pores and promote blood circulation for a healthy glow.

* Washing with hot water is bad for the skin. It strips your skin of its natural oils. This can cause your skin to dry out, which can set off a chain reaction: dry skin equals a compromised moisture barrier - which equals aggravated skin problems.



 

-4- WASH YOUR FACE WITH GENTLE CLEANSER


Cleansing your skin and thoroughly removing makeup, especially each night, is an important part of any effective anti-aging regimen. Free radicals, toxins, and impurities aren't removed from your skin without the cleansing well the skin. Double cleansing is always so recommended by dermatologists. For every night you don't cleanse your face, you are aging your skin by 3 months!

Scrubbing your skin clean can irritate your skin. Irritating your skin accelerates skin aging. Gentle washing helps to remove all the dirt without irritating the skin, while preserves the skin barrier and keep it resistant to dehydration and damage. Gentle cleansers with a high pH like natural soaps are very harsh and can leave your skin vulnerable to irritation and infection. Cleansers or cleansing bars with a low pH, such as the one below by ARgENTUM Apothecary, cleanses the skin gently while restore the natural balance of the skin.

Argentum Apothecary le savon lune

`le savon lune’, ARgENTUM Apothecary soap-free cleansing bar, packed with some truly unique goods such as Silver Hydrosol, DNA HP and Bentonite (a colloidal clay made of aged volcanic ash). Its mild lather is creamy and hydrating; smoothly washes of impurities and makeup leaving the skin perfectly clean, balanced, healthy glowing and youthful! No signs of dryness or irritation.

-5- REMOVE DEAD SKIN CELLS


Exfoliation - my favorite part of pm skincare routine. Exfoliating the skin regularly helps our body produce more collagen and elastin, keeping the skin extra plump and ready to bounce back. This makes exfoliating a great way to slow down and even delay the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines!

Our skin is made up of many microscopic layers of cells, but only the deepest level, called the dermis, contains living cells which are smooth and radiant. The well known AHAs are commonly considered to be exfoliating agents, however, the benefits of AHAs

extend well beyond exfoliation. So loved by global aesthetic clinics, gives great dead cell removal, moisturization, reduction of wrinkles, firming and skin brightening. Alpha hydroxy acids also help stimulate collagen production, making it ideal for those wanting to reduce the appearance of fine lines. Here I favor the one you see below by MZ SKIN.

Now, microdermabrasion scrubs offer some of the most hardcore exfoliations you can get without leaving your home. The micro tiny particles in microdermabrasion can penetrate the skin easier than larger molecules. They break down dead skin to help other skincare products to work more effectively and reveal a new, fresh layer of skin. The bests are professional grade microdermabrasion creams, like the one by Dr. Brant (see below).

MZ SKIN cleanse & clarify

MZ SKIN´s award winner, vegan, highly effective blend of low level AHAs and Papaya Fruit Enzyme, removes dead skin cells, refines pores and boosts cell renewal on a daily basis, without being abrasive. Most importantly it prepares the skin for the ultimate absorption of serums and moisturizers. Can be used as a refining face mask for deeper exfoliation and more radiant skin. You´ll just love your skin after this so much - expect smooth, flawless, glowing complexion.

Dr Brant microdermabrasion

Specifically designed to make you feel like you just stepped out of a clinic, this breakthrough Microdermabrasion Exfoliating Cream offers transformative brightening and smoothing results in just minimal time. Lactic Acid together with aluminum oxide crystals gently polish the skin and refine the surface to smooth away the look of fine lines and delated pores to reveal a fresh-faced complexion, instantly reviving skin's radiance. Lactic acid is a humectant, so it's also great for drawing water into the skin, giving the skin a plumper, supple appearance. Cons: not cruelty-free

Once a week is enough for me, but can be used 2 times, to have all the good anti-aging benefits; on dampen skin gently massage cream into skin for 1 - 2 minutes, avoiding the eye area. After, just rinse well with lukewarm water ant pat dry.

Available on Dr. Brandt: £64.00/60g



 

-6- PROTECT YOUR SKIN FROM THE SUN WISELY


It doesn´t matter where you go and what kind of weather is out there, sun protection is essential. UV rays pass through clouds and even through windows as far as UVA rays are concerned! So be careful all year long, and not only during the summer. Without a filter, the cells attacked during the day will have to work harder to regenerate in the evening and the face marks faster.

What type of Sunscreen is safest?---According to dermatologists, the best and healthiest is a mineral-based broad spectrum sunscreens containing zinc oxide or titanium dioxide, that provides safe, broad range protection against ultraviolet light and scatters and deflects the sun's rays away from the skin... Sunscreens to love are by Typology Paris and U Beauty, they not only protects in a healthy way, but as well gives great skincare benefits.

This is as close as you can get to not wearing sunscreen while, you know, wearing sunscreen. It goes on completely clear, feels like nothing, and dries down to a weightless, skin perfecting finish.

-7- PROTECT YOUR SKIN FROM POLLUTION


When it comes to the skin protection, many limit it to UV protection, while the pollution that is everywhere around us is actually very harmful, weakening our skin cells and tissues and thus causing us to age prematurely. Even young skin requires protection form free radicals. Urban people already know that cities are plagued by harmful skin aggressors. But those living in the countryside, should consider investing in anti-pollution skincare, too. Living away from busy roads reduces the risk of damage from fine particles and gases emitted by traffic. However, pollution can drift out from the cities to cover the countryside meaning the difference in air quality might not be as clear cut.

MZ SKIN anti-pollution face mist

MZ SKIN`s Anti-Pollution Hydrating Mist - packed full of active ingredients, it’s so complete; founder Dr. Maryam Zamani, global leading Aesthetic Doctor and Oculoplastic Surgeon, has put in this mist pretty much everything a mist can have. The cutting-edge active ingredients not only form a shield against pollution, infrared and blue light, but as well boosts the skin’s natural barrier function for increased resilience over time + reduces redness, calms inflammation and deeply hydrates the skin. I love to spritz it right after cleansing my skin, after the make-up application to set, and/or throughout the day for extra refreshment, hydration and protection.

*MZ SKIN is sustainable cruelty-free clean beauty free from GMO, parabens, sulphates, silicones and phthalates…


Available on MZ SKIN: €36/30ml - €72/75ml

-8- APPLY SELF-TANNER RATHER THAN GET A TAN


Every time you get a tan, you prematurely age your skin. This holds true if you get a tan from the sun, a tanning bed, or other indoor tanning equipment. All the mentioned, emit harmful UV rays that accelerate how quickly your skin ages.

Recording to dermatologists, sunless tanners are a safer option because they tint the top layer of the skin that sloughs off in two to three weeks. This kind of tanners are deemed safe if their main ingredient is DHA, or dihydroxyacetone. DHA is derived from plant sources and is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for skin tanning purposes.

If you choose to use a self-tanner to achieve a sun-kissed glow, don’t forget to apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 before you go outside. Self-tanner provides no protection from the harmful rays of the sun. It is just a superficial tinting of the skin and has no protective properties from the damaging UVA/UVB rays.

Tan-Luxe The Face self-tan drops

Achieve sun-kissed skin (without the harmful UV rays) with Tan-Luxe's Illuminating Facial Self Tanning Drops. A multi-award winning formula that is safe and works synergistically with regular skincare routine; comes with hydrating skincare properties and is suitable for all skin types.

I couldn't recommend this product enough! Use the drops with your moisturizer before bed and you'll wake up with a perfectly tanned skin. I love that I can add this to my regular favorite serum and moisturizer, and the tan is buildable. The scent is also the least offensive that doesn´t bother me at all. I´ve tried Tan- Luxe body and face self tanners, and I´ve loved them all a lot.

* Never forget to wash your hands after self -tanning!

-9- FIX YOUR GUT

The very very important one... The connection between the skin and gut seems to be mediated by the host immune system. The interaction of the microorganisms and the host immune system is important to maintain the skin homeostasis. The gut–skin axis may be viewed as an integral part of the gut–brain–skin axis ... If you have an unhealthy gut, it can significantly impact your overall health and your skin, including breakouts of spots, dry skin, psoriasis, inflammation, atopic dermatitis (eczema) and rosacea. One study found that people with wrinkles had a higher level of gut inflammation than those without wrinkles. While more research is needed, the gut-skin connection is clear. Improving gut health can lead to better skin health, and vice versa.

I've tried a lot probiotics supplements. So grounded in science, SEED DS-01® Daily Synbiotic "super organisms" are the ones for me; gives the most amazing skin, health and overall well-being improvements. If many probiotic supplements comes with 3- 7 strains, Seed ones has 24 clinically studied strains. See more details below:

-10- MOISTURE & HYDRATE YOUR SKIN SMARTLY


Look for the creams and serums that contain Ceramides or other skincare ingredients that locks in moisture. Ceramide is a “glue” that holds skin cells together, helping skin maintain its appearance while protecting it. Healthy skin has lots of ceramides, which lock in moisture and protect the more sensitive second layer against outside irritants. Now, the most common hydrating heroes are Hyaluronic Acid and Glycerin. These as well lock in hydration and keep the skin from drying out. The skin has a protective lipid barrier consisting of natural oils. This barrier is there not only to help keep water in your skin but to keep environmental toxins out. Apply moisturizer when your skin is damp. The prime time for moisturizing your skin is within five minutes after cleansing it. Skincare goods with “great barrier repair” that bind in moisture and water:

SOMM SKINCARE

SOMM Skin, Primal Plus, 100% natural skincare duo with multi-strategy Intelligent hydration.

SOMM “plays strong” in nature’s amalgamation with science, and has put in their micro-biome skincare formulas the most radical plant technology that promises to re-program the cellular skin-intelligence.

Boasting 28 nutrient-rich phyto- active botanicals, No.38 Gold super-active serum pleases the skin with the ultimate rejuvenative rich blend full with vitamins, minerals, phyto-nutrients, antioxidants, aminos, fatty acids and phyto-ceramides. It’s so complex, I love to wear this serum alone, or add a few drops into the Primal for more glow, nutrition and everything the aging skin is so needy for. Both products can be purchased separately.... (SOMM goods perfectly fits as the next tip´s nr.11 choice, as well).


Available on SOMM: €88.00/50ml

-11- INCLUDE MICROBIOME-FRIENDLY SKINCARE


Skin`s microbiome plays an equally important role in human health and beautiful skin, as the Gut microbiome does. The microbiota in your gut is different from the microbiota in your skin. So while you may have purchased your probiotics already, know that your skin needs its own set of care tactics to keep its unique flora thriving and your complexion naturally healthy. An off-balance in the skin microbiome, can flare atopic dermatitis and cause rosacea. Good quality microbiome-friendly skincare can be life-changing who has inflammatory skin condition, like acne, eczema, psoriases; all in some way affected by poor microbiome health. I always choose micro-biome-friendly skincare when my skin is having some irritation or redness issues going on. Works always beautifully, especially the one by ARgENTUM:

argentum apothecary la potion infinie

ARgENTUM Apothecary `la potion infinie` restorative day and night silver cream; unique skin´s microbiome-friendly ultra-luxe formula with Silver Hydrasol in it, is able to take care of many skin issues like dryness, environmental damage, breakouts, acne, redness, enlarged pores, fine lines, lack of firmness, irritation or sensitivity, and dulling discoloration. Due to the DNA HP, moisturises in a unique way by delivering hydration to cutaneous intercellular space, carrying 10,000 times its weight in water (is great choice of previous Tip 10 as well). Beautifully scented luxury (unisex) cream, that can positively surprise literally everyone just in 3 day!


Available on ARgENTUM: £174.00/ 70ml



 

-12- CHOOSE SILK PILLOWCASES


Let´s talk about the sleep wrinkles.

Studies have found that pressing your face against a pillow as you sleep can cause permanent wrinkles.

Silk pillowcases— or silk anything, really — is a small luxury, but it can bring so much beauty benefits. The smooth surface of the silk pillowcase can decrease wrinkles and improve the appearance of skin’s hydration, which can make you look more youthful. Silk lets the skin breathe and prevents pores from clogging. Skin stays hydrated all night and because of minimal friction reduces fine lines + reduces hair breakage, split ends, frizz and less breakage when brushing. Talk about beauty sleep!… and that’s why this should be your new beauty obsession.

The highest-quality silk is mulberry silk, which is made from silkworms who eat from the leaves of the mulberry tree. It's the most durable silk and also the softest, which makes it ideal for a high-traffic item like a pillowcase.



 

-13- HAVE A SUGAR-FREE LIFESTYLE


Healthier skin is one of the sugar-free diet benefits. The body produces more insulin and similar hormones when you consume excess sugar. These hormones may trigger some changes in the skin, causing acne and aging. Reducing your sugar intake can help lower glycation in your skin. Glycation is when sugar molecules attach to protein or lipids in our bodies. When this happens, stored cells aren't as supportive to the skin's surface. The lack of collagen and elastin means it is hard to achieve a firm and plump look. `NO Sugar`diet can improve your complexion by strengthening elastin and collagen and reducing the level of inflammation present in your skin. Remember: sugar is not only in the sweets, its in many not sweet products like ketchup, bread, protein bars, granola, instant oatmeal, yogurt and so on...

By the way, avoid foods where protein is together with sugar, like protein bars; this combo makes us age 7 times faster! We do not want that,right? So choose always sugar free protein bars. But be aware - many sweeteners like fructose, sucralose, saccharin, maple syrup and aspartam are very harmful to the overall health.

For example, fructose consumption can accelerate aging. Fructose affects skin collagen cross-linking by increasing the amount of stable chemical bonds both within and between collagen molecules which in turn may reduce skin's elasticity and softness, the hallmarks of youthful skin. That´s why some longevity experts are not recommending to intake more that 3 fruits per day (except red fruits like blueberries and raspberries). The best sweetener - always Stevia. It's even associated with several impressive health benefits, such as reduced calorie intake, blood sugar levels, and risk of cavities.

In 2008, stevia won FDA approval for use as a safe sweetener for foods and drinks.



 

-14- DRINK WATER

Drinking plenty of water every day will significantly reduce skin aging. Water keeps your body hydrated and refreshed and helps maintain your skin's elasticity. People who drink large amounts of water are less likely to suffer from scars, wrinkles, and soft lines and they won't show as many signs of aging as those who drink little amounts of water.

Skin´s outermost layer of the epidermis is called the stratum corneum. This important membrane keeps bad things from entering the body. It also plays a role in making sure that too much water doesn’t leave our bodies. In other words, it helps keep the skin hydrated by preventing water evaporation. If you´re dehydrated and decide to start drinking plenty of water, eventually you`ll notice how your skin becomes brighter and plumper already in a few days.

I drink 2,5l -3l water daily, some with freshly squeezed lemon juice (not including here tea, matcha and coffee, I drink everyday).



 

-15- EAT HEALTHY, WELL-BALANCED DIET


Studies suggest that eating plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables may help prevent damage that leads to premature skin aging. Findings from research studies also suggest that a diet containing lots of sugar or other refined carbohydrates can accelerate aging.

That pattern can be summed up this way: Choose more whole foods (vegetables, fruits, legumes, whole grains and lean proteins) and fewer ultra-processed foods (fast food, soda and sweets).

You may wanna include in your diet following anti-aging foods: avocado, broccoli, red bell pepper, not heated nuts, spinach, papaya, watercress, arugula, sweet potatoes, pomegranate seeds and blueberries.

Recording to longevity scientists, the Mediterranean and DASH are the ones of the healthiest diets known. Everything is even better is practiced 16:8 Intermittent Fasting (when 16h is without eating and 8h window is where you can have 2 - 3 meals). You can do this daily or 2-3 days per week. For me Intermittent Fasting is everyday 24/7. The benefits are just too good - Intermittent fasting triggers multiple changes in the body that slow down aging by keeping cells and DNA healthy.



 

-16- COSMETIC TREATMENTS FOR MORE DRASTIC RESULTS


When you´re in your 30`s, you can still control everything with a good skincare and the right nourishment from within. Now, after 40, if you're not the lucky inheritor of some fabulous genes, everything starts to change more dramatically. Thankfully, there´re effective noninvasive anti-aging options capable effectively stop—or at least slow—the clock.

Skin boosters are often a good first step in stimulating new collagen and elastin deposition to reduce crepeyness in the delicate neck area. Talk with your plastic surgeon or beauty care professional, he´ll surely advice what´s best for you.



 

-17- INCLUDE IN YOUR DIET LONGEVITY SUPPLEMENTS


Longevity supplements differ from other 'generic supplements' as they do not provide ingredients to the body simply to prevent vitamin deficiencies; instead they provide the body with ingredients that can act on pathways to change the rate at which we age. Taking longevity supplements, like for example, Spermidine will make the skin aging visibly slowed down.



 

THE TAKEAWAY

If you struggle with skin aging and wrinkles (on your body or face), you should know that many safe treatment methods can be very helpful. But its always important to pay attention first on all the lifestyle choices you make, like protection from UV and pollution, the right skin care, good hydration levels and guts microbiome well-being. Make smart choices and leave the part -16- as the last one. Cosmetic applications will always give much better results if you have taken a good care of yourself at home first.
