Aging is inevitable, but there are ways that you can help your skin stay healthy and maintain a youthful glow. For women over 40, the secret to younger-looking skin lies in their moisturizer.
“The moisture-trapping molecules in your dermis, like hyaluronic acid, start to diminish in the 40s,” notes Whitney Bowe, a dermatologist in New York City and author ofThe Beauty of Dirty Skin, which is why it’s important to keep the skin hydrated.
Fine lines and wrinkles start to pop up when your skin loses moisture, and, you’ll notice that it’s not as firm or plump as it used to be. Bowe suggests using a hyaluronic acid-rich moisturizer or serum to help rehydrate the skin and keep it looking plump and glowing.
