5 Products to Add to Your Anti-Ageing Skincare Routine
It’s a fact of life that as we age, so does our skin, with tell-tale signs such as fine lines, wrinkles and changes in texture, firmness and appearance. While we can’t stop the clock and believe that skin is beautiful at every age, there are products we can add to our skincare routines to help minimise those visible signs of ageing.
One brand that’s nailed effective anti-ageing products is Revision Skincare. The brand uses ground-breaking, patent-pending technology developed by its in-house team of scientists in its cutting-edge research and development facility in Dallas, Texas. The line consists of the most comprehensive package of Peptides available, allowing for many different components of skin to be addressed, as well as formulas that mimic the skin’s neutral pH level for optimum skin health.
Here are five anti-ageing products from Revision Skincare we’re adding to our routines.
1. Revision Skincare D-E-J Face Cream®
D·E·J Face Cream® is a day and night moisturiser inspired by the Dermal-Epidermal Junction (DEJ) - a critical factor in skin ageing that helps improve the visible signs of ageing from multiple pathways and features Prebiotic Innovation to promote a healthy Microbiome. The formula contains Vitamin C to help brighten and even skin tone, Hyaluronic Acid to hydrate the skin, and 11 antioxidants to defend against environmental aggressors.
2. Revision Skincare Nectifirm® Advanced
Because good skincare doesn’t stop at the jawline. Our necks and décolletage are one of the first places we show signs of ageing – especially as the skin on our décolletage tends to be thinner than other parts of the body. Revision Skincare Nectifirm® ADVANCED uses ground-breaking technology to reduce the appearance of lines, wrinkles and rough, crepe-like skin, with Red Microalgae Extract that helps skin appear more firm and lifted. Apply twice daily, using upward strokes.
3. Revision Skincare Retinol Complete® 0.5
Retinol is the ingredient on everyone’s lips – and with good reason. Derived from Vitamin A, retinol is one of the only proven ingredients to visibly reduce the signs of ageing. Revision Skincare Retinol Complete® 0.5 contains 0.5% of time-released retinol for maximum efficacy with minimal irritation. This formula also contains a proprietary blend of botanical extracts, that enhances the effects of retinol. Use only at night, after cleansing and before moisturising.
4. Revision Skincare Revox™ 7
Revox™ 7 is an oil-free serum that contains seven different anti-ageing peptides. In keeping with the name, it also softens the appearance of seven types of expression lines: forehead and frown lines, crow’s feet, bunny nose lines, laugh lines, lip lines and marionette lines. Use twice a day before applying moisturiser.
5. Revision Skincare Vitamin C Lotion 15%
Vitamin C is one of the key anti-ageing ingredients out there, thanks to its antioxidant and skin brightening benefits. Revision Skincare Vitamin C Lotion 15% contains THD Ascorbate, a highly stabilised and powerful form of Vitamin C, as well as Vitamin E which provides strong antioxidant benefits. Use once daily in the morning before applying moisturiser.
When to start using anti-ageing products
Our skin starts to age in our 20s, which is when our bodies’ natural collagen and elastin production begins to slow down. I short, the best time to start incorporating anti-ageing products into your routine is during this decade. Of course, no amount of product will be worthwhile without regular, daily application of a broad spectrum SPF, so read our guide to choosing and SPF for your skin type for the ultimate in slowing down the visible signs of ageing.
