Five easy ways to reduce the premature ageing of your skin
While ageing is inevitable – and we think, a beautiful part of the life cycle – there are a number of things you can do to care for your skin, so that it stays looking its happiest and healthiest for years to come.
While certain biological shifts, like fine lines and a drying and thinning of the skin, are normal and to be expected, there are a number of lifestyle changes you can make to support your skin to look and feel its best.
Here are our top five easy tips for reducing the premature ageing of your skin, all of which you can put into action (or at least plan to put into action) today !
Use anti-ageing skincare products
Different skincare products cater to different skin needs, and what works for someone with, say, severe acne, will not be the perfect product for someone whose skin is showing signs of ageing (or who is wanting to reduce the speed of their skin ageing).
Ageing skin has very specific and unique markers:
● Fine lines and wrinkles
● Sun damage
● Pigmentation
● Less elasticity, and
● Less oil production.
Each of our products here at Aglow Aesthetics Skincare have been specifically formulated to
support ageing skin, target these key challenges and bring them back into balance!

Nourish your insides
While what you put on your skin matters, so too does what you put in your body. Our skin health is often a reflection of what’s going on inside of us. If our insides are nourished with clean food and lots of water, and if things like alcohol, sugar and tobacco are eliminated (or at least cut back), our skin is more likely to look healthy. You may also find that you sleep better, have a clearer mind and have more energy! It’s a win-win!
On this, we want to add that what you put on your skin matters. Because the skin is the largest organ of the human body, whatever you put on it, goes in it! The ‘cleaner’ your skincare products, the better!
That’s why we only sell 100% natural, vegan and organic skincare products that are completely free from chemicals, SLS, parabens and other synthetic ingredients – because we care about your skin AND your wellbeing!
Be sun smart
Too much exposure to the sun, especially unprotected exposure, can substantially age the skin (not to mention, increase the risk of skin cancer!). As often as you possibly can, wear sunscreen, adorn yourself in a hat, and try your best to stay out of the sun during the hottest part of the day.
Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate!
The older we get, the more our skin relies on us to hydrate it. Certain skincare products (like Hyaluronic Acid) can help, but of course, you can’t go past good old H2O! Water is nourishment for your skin and it relies on it to look healthy and supple.
Treat yourself and avoid stress
Skin treatments are not only a beautiful act of self care and an opportunity to relax and press pause on everyday life, they’re also great for your skin!
There’s a huge amount of facial treatments on offer these days – all of which can give your skin a well deserved reset, and bring it back into balance (and therefore, reduce its likelihood of ageing prematurely).
