In your 30’s, you may see the beginnings of dark under-eye circles, crow’s feet, and some sagging around the mouth area. If you spent too much time sunbathing in the previous decade, you’re probably starting to see more dark spots, wrinkles, and loss of suppleness. Let’s see what we can do to improve these.
✨So what happens to your skin in your 30’s? Let’s talk about it:
In your 20s, you experience a slower skin cell turnover which becomes even slower when you reach your 30s. Your skin cycle becomes longer since new skin is not produced as quickly. Dead skin cells tend to accumulate on your skin’s surface and interfere with light reflection. As a result, your skin looks dull and lackluster 🧬
A slower skin turnover also makes it more difficult for the skin to stay moisturized naturally. The topmost layer of the skin does not slough off fast enough, giving the skin a less radiant and dry appearance. Slower skin cycles help explain why products that worked in your 20’s no longer work as effectively in your 30’s.
Moreover, the skin natural moisturizing factor can’t produce as many hydrating compounds as it used to. This adds to your skin’s dehydration which, in turn, leads to other signs of premature aging like wrinkles and lines. This also weakens your skin’s barrier membrane function making it more prone to environmental & free-radical attack. This also has a detrimental effect on your friendly skin bacteria, resulting in changes in your skin’s microbiome. Thankfully Melanopeel carries several products and our Probiotic Serum to help rebalance your skin 👩🏽⚕
