  1. Vitamin C Serum

Using a Vitamin C serum is hands down one of the best steps you can take to achieve bright, even-toned, youthful looking skin. The powerful antioxidant is known for its ability to neutralize free radicals that cause premature ageing, helping to protect your skin from environmental damage, such as sun exposure and pollution. Vitamin C also supports collagen production, which is essential for maintaining firm, youthful skin.

We can’t get enough of this best-selling serum from Pevonia! Its nourishing but beautifully light on application, has the most divine scent and is rich in not only Vitamin C but hyaluronic acid, that work together to hydrate, correct photo-damage, and drench your skin with repairing antioxidants for a revitalized, youthful appearance.

  1. Retinol Cream

Retinol is a skincare superstar when it comes to anti-ageing. Aside from SPF it is the no. 1 for maintaining youthful skin. Why? Because it boosts cell turnover, reduces fine lines, and improves skin texture.

Try; Medicalia Retinol & “C” Care Cream

Aside from Hyaluronic Acid and Vitamin C, Retinol has long been worshipped by beauty professionals as the hero ingredient in the fight against wrinkles! Some even say nothing fights the signs of ageing better!

  1. Anti-ageing moisturiser

Using an anti-ageing moisturiser is key to keeping your skin hydrated, smooth, and more resilient against the signs of ageing. Unlike regular moisturisers, anti-ageing formulas are packed with active ingredients like peptides, retinol, hyaluronic acid, and antioxidants, which work together to target wrinkles, loss of firmness, and dullness. By deeply hydrating and plumping the skin, an anti-aging moisturiser can minimize the appearance of fine lines and create a smoother texture. Additionally, these moisturisers help to strengthen the skin’s natural barrier, protecting it from environmental damage and boosting elasticity. Regular use not only keeps your skin looking fresh and youthful but also helps to prevent future signs of ageing, making it an essential step in any skincare routine for long-lasting, healthy, and radiant skin!

  1. Vitamin enriched mask

These masks also infuse your skin with intense hydration and essential nutrients, boosting elasticity and promoting a healthy, radiant complexion.
