Prevention is definitely better than cure, particularly when it comes to skincare. Over time, excess exposure to the sun and pollution, coupled with our body’s natural ageing process, will leave your skin looking dull and tired. And whilst there are a myriad of products and treatments made to repair the signs of aging, wouldn’t it be better if we could stop them from appearing to begin with? Enter the preventative skincare heroes that will nourish the skin for radiant, youthful-looking skin.

A Wrinkle in Time

Wrinkles are a natural part of the aging process, formed when collagen production slows naturally and the skin becomes thinner, drier and less elastic. Luckily, there are a host of products infused with retinols, vitamins, and minerals which work with the skin to regenerate and rejuvenate at a cellular level. Trust us, skincare superstars with hyaluronic acid and copper are worth the hype.

Rising Sun

Over the years, repeated exposure to the sun and pollution causes damage to our delicate cells, resulting in patches of pigmentation, age spots and dark marks. Products high in vitamin C, aloe vera and Alpha Hydroxy Acid will treat marks and spots at their onset, working to gradually lightening them over time, but ultimately, regular SPF use is key in preventing their formation. Discover super serums and the perfect SPF for skin that glows.

Into the Blue

Repeated exposure to blue light — sometimes known as High Energy Visible (HEV) light — which is emitted from phone, laptop and TV screens, can cause inflammation and break down healthy collagen, ultimately increasing the signs of ageing. Make sure your sunscreen has broad spectrum protection, which will protect against HEV light while also blocking UVA and UVB rays from the sun.
