Best Products For Aging Skin

As our skin ages, it loses elasticity and begins to sag, wrinkle, and dry out. Sometimes, skin can form dark spots and other signs of aging some may find embarrassing or even painful. While you cannot reverse aging, you can adopt a skin care regimen that minimizes its effects and keeps your skin healthy in the long run.

There are many products on the market specifically designed to address aging skin, but these products should be used with caution. They can work for some, but contain harsh chemicals that can be harmful to sensitive skin. A combination of a good sunscreen and quality moisturizer is the best combination to treat aging skin.

Sunscreen

According to many dermatologists, sunscreen is among the best anti-aging products on the market. It is one of the most effective ways to prevent prematurely aging skin. If you are vigitant about applying sunscreen daily, you are likely to offset many of the negative effects of aging on your skin. Sunscreen also protects against skin cancer, which is important as cancer risks increase with age.

Opt for a broad spectrum sunscreen with an SPF 30 or higher. Apply sunscreen to any exposed skin whenever you go out, even on overcast days. Water resistant sunscreen can also add an extra layer of protection, especially if you are prone to sweating.

Sunscreen alone often improves signs of aging significantly. Regular sunscreen use can help reduce dark circles, fine lines, and wrinkles.

Creams And Serums

There are many creams and serums on the market that promise big results to reverse aging. Some products do contain ingredients like collagen, which can help offset aging. Many, however, contain potentially harmful additives and have minimal research to back up their alleged benefits.

In general, you should always talk to a board certified dermatologist before using an over-the-counter product. Specific skin types may benefit from active ingredients found in creams and serums, such as:

• Retinoids, which are Vitamin A compounds that can help sun-damaged skin.
• Vitamin C, which may help protect from free radicals (molecules that break down skin cells).
• Hydroxy Acids, which remove dead skin cells and may help your skin absorb other products like sunscreen and moisturizer

These products can be beneficial for some, but there are no guarantees. The FDA classifies most lotions and creams as having no medical value. However, sometimes a dermatologist may recommend a product with one or more these ingredients to you. Some specific skin types may respond well to such products.

Watch out for side effects. Many over-the-counter serums and creams can cause issues like irritation, rashes, burning, or redness. Some individuals may also experience allergic reactions. 

Delfina Dry Skin Oil does not have a history of allergic reactions or side effects and can successfully treat aging skin.

Natural Treatments

Many people prefer to treat aging skin through natural means.

Tea extracts – like black, green, and oolong tea – contain antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties that may help slow the aging of skin. Grape seed extract is also a popular home remedy that may promote collagen production.

Extracts should only be used when diluted with a carrier oil. Otherwise, they can cause burning, itching, and irritation. For some, natural products – even when used properly – still cause these side effects. Use extracts with extreme caution and cease use if you experience an adverse physical reaction.

Natural treatments can also include lifestyle changes such as drinking more water, avoiding the sun, refraining from smoking, and eating a balanced diet.

Delfina Dry Skin Oil is made from natural ingredients and carries no risk of side effects or skin irritation. It is a simple, spray-on oil you do not have to dilute before use. Many people whose skin has dried out due to aging have found relief with Delfina.

Products For Aging Skin: The Bottom Line

There are myriad of anti-aging creams and ointments advertised as a miracle cure for aging skin. Some of these products – especially those that contain ingredients like collagen – may be somewhat effective at combating wrinkles, fine lines, and other signs of aging. However, there is scant evidence that most anti-aging products are not helpful. In fact, many can be harmful.

The majority of dermatologists agree the best way to care for aging skin is a combination of a broad spectrum sunscreen of SPF 30 or higher and a high-quality moisturizer. Wear sunscreen whenever you go out and regularly apply Delfina Dry Skin Oil. This should be enough to improve and maintain your skin’s appearance with age.
