How to take care of mature skin?

Let us start with reminding the fundamental issue – a woman can expect to have mature skin only when her menopause period begins. At this point of each women’s life, some changes have to be introduced especially in the area of lifestyle, make-up or way of taking care of the complexion and dermis in general. In other words, it is necessary to redefine not only our needs but also needs of our new skin. Naturally, the most characteristic features of mature skin are wrinkles. These become visible the moment when dermis loses its hydration (appropriate moisturization level is not maintained) because collagen and elastin are no longer produced in sufficient amounts. Moreover, despite wrinkles, face looses its natural shape, discolourations are more noticeable (so-called age spots) as are pigmentation marks. Under such circumstances, it is worth wondering, what is the best manner of taking care of mature skin?
The basic action that should be performed is moisturization. Providing dermis with appropriate hydration level, supplied from inside and outside, can significantly reduce visibility of wrinkles, restore fresh and healthy look, highlight discolourations and improve the general condition of skin. It is also crucial to feed skin with appropriate preparations. In this particular case, all cosmetics containing hyaluronic acid are highly recommended. What is more, nowadays many beauty parlours offer treatments of circulation boosting features, replenishing face oval and firmness of skin. The eventual technique of face skin improvement is injection of botox.

What kind of make-up does suit mature skin?

If you finally know, how to take care of your mature skin, than it is time to do suitable make-up. It is all about taking years off yourself, shaping face and regaining young and radiant appearance. For that reason, it is suggested to apply a lifting make-up foundation first. Remember to distribute only small amounts of the cosmetic, not to create unaesthetic smudges, layers or the mask effect. Now, reach for a highlighting transparent powder (only for oily complexion owners, suffice to apply only scarce amounts; matte finish might date). After that, focus on eyebrow arches, cheekbones and inner corners of the eyes. Cover these parts with a highlighter, a concealer or an eye shadow of a bright colour. Your face will become slimmer and bigger if you do it properly. It is also suggested to avoid either vivid or dark colours. It is way better to use products of pastel colours that are light and fresh.
