A TLDR Guide on Anti-Aging š¼āØ
Hiya lovely beauties š
Growing and maturing is a part of our natural path in life, however, no one likes the sound of ageing! But when do I start an anti-aging regime? Am I at the right age? Should I just go all out and do everything thats possible? No fear ladies, I am hereĀ to give you a tldr, no fluff guide on anti-aging šµ .

So what exactly is skin ageing?
Itās something that we all have to experience and unfortunately, inevitable. However, there are a few avoidable causes that speeds up the process. The biggest concern is UV damage, followed by smoking and diet. As we grow older, our skin cell turnover rate get slower and slower. Our collagen production will start to decreaseĀ by 1% each year, once we turn 21. We can prevent premature ageing and slow down the process if we start taking care as early as the age of 20 ⨠!
During our 20s
There is no need for serious anti-aging just yet, stick to a balanced routine fit for your skin type and keep them hydrated! However, the first and most important step in anti-aging is sun protection! Even if you donāt see any signs of ageing in your 20s, the only way to get rid of sun damage is actually to prevent it. Especially under NewĀ Zealand sun š , itās never too early to start wearing sunscreen. One of my favorite sunscreens is definitely the Dr. Jart+ Sun Fluid, lightweight and great for sensitive skin (for more info, check out my review!).

Approaching our 30s
With our skin constantly under attack from UV exposure, pollution, lack of sleep and stress, it needs a boost to help battle them š„ ! I highly recommend introducing Vitamins C and E into your daily skincare. Although Vitamin C and E is popular for skin brightening, not many people is aware that its also great for preventing skin- ageing. These antioxidants are both naturally found within the skin and helps protect collagen loss. A great Vitamin C product to start off with is the Some By Mi Glow Serum, works amazing for blemishes too (for more info, check out my review!).
Follow up with the By Wishtrend Maximizing Cream for your supply of Vitamin E (for more info, check out Laurenās review!).

Reaching our 40s and above
Itās time to really tackle the inevitable. We will begin to notice more signs of aging in the form of lines and wrinkles, we may even notice a loss of skin elasticity and hydration. Begin using a heavier and soothing moisturizer on your skin, as well as products that contain higher levels of antioxidants and anti-aging ingredients. A few to look out for is Ceramides, Collagen and Peptides.
Ceramides is one of the most effective ingredient for keeping your skin barrier healthy and strong, lockingĀ moisture into the skin š§ . In terms of anti-aging, the more hydrated your skin is, the more youthful it will look. I recommend checking out Dr. Jart+ās Ceramidin line, especially their cream!

Collagen is one of the most important proteins in your skin, itās what keep our skin strong and firm with elasticity. The problem is that our natural collagen production slows down as we age. Although Collagen are the ones we always hear about, but donāt forget about Peptides! They are amino-acids great for smoothing fine lines, increasing collagen production, and decreasing the appearance of pores. Mizonās Skin Energy Collagen 100 and Peptide 500 are popular serums within ourĀ HIKOCO beauties. They are easy to incorporate into your existing skin care regime and worksĀ for any skin type š !

Remember aging is a normal part of life, however, instead of worrying about getting older, just beĀ confident and happy, thatās the key for eternal youth š¼ . Iām sure you will look just as cute and beautiful no matter how old you are! Thatās all from me today beauties, take care and stay safe!
