Top Product Picks for Anti-Aging
Surveys show that 59% of women list anti-aging as one of their top goals when creating a skincare routine. It’s no wonder the products that boast reduction of fine-lines and wrinkles as a primary benefit, are plentiful.
Between the endless supply of anti-aging moisturizers and serums, it can be hard to pick only a select few that will change the game when it comes to anti-aging. I’m making it easy by sharing my best product recs for anti-aging.
Best Anti Aging Skin Products
If you’re not applying the right type of products or ingredients to your face every day, you may not be seeing the anti-aging effects we all desire. Here are my tried and true favorites that I always keep stocked at Gameela Skin:
Moisturizer for Anti Aging
You may notice that as you age, your skin begins to feel drier and needs a bit more of a boost {to mimic how your skin used to feel in your 20s 🤪}.
Using a moisturizer will help keep your skin feeling AND looking great, plus it provides an excellent vehicle to add some more anti-aging ingredients. I recommend the Rhonda Allison Amino Peptide Hydration moisturizer. Not only does it have a light and creamy feel that will glide onto the skin with ease, but it includes essential proteins and amino acids that provide tissue-building support while hydrating the skin. A win, win for your skin!
Top Serums for Anti Aging
If you know me, you know I love my serums. Serums easily absorb into the skin on a deep cellular level, allowing the ingredients to penetrate your skin faster and work more effectively.
When it comes to anti-aging, I love the following three serums:
Rhonda Allison Antioxidant 18 Complex: This blend of 18 essential antioxidants works hard to firm and tone your skin. L-glutathione, green tea and resveratrol deliver a powerful, free-radical fighting benefit to the skin, reducing the look of drooping or saggy skin. {the number one sign of aging}
Rhonda Allison Amino Peptide Serum: The peptides in this serum serve as a collagen stimulator, increasing production of the essential protein and reducing the look of fine lines and wrinkles on the face and neck. A bonus benefit for this serum is the natural moisturizing factors that peptides have!
Rhonda Allison C-Peptide Complex: Vitamin C, much like peptides, provide essential collagen production support to your skin, while also increasing antioxidants. Vitamin C will help reduce wrinkles, and will {actually} leave you glowing from within.
Best Face Exfoliator
Exfoliating your skin regularly can provide a number of benefits, including noticeable anti-aging benefits. Exfoliation removes the top layer of older, dead skin cells, revealing beneath it the bright and smooth skin that’s been hidden away.
The removal of dead skin cells also helps improve discoloration and hyperpigmentation, which is a common complaint about aging skin. The process of exfoliating the skin also helps improve blood flow to the face, encouraging lymphatic drainage which results in rejuvenated skin free from toxins and buildup.
When exfoliating your skin, you’ll also aid in the production of collagen and elastin, two proteins in the skin that decrease over time and result in fine lines and wrinkles. Increased collagen and elastin will help keep your skin looking plump and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
When I want to feel the benefits of exfoliation, I will reach for the Rhonda Allison Mandelic Perfecting Polish. This scrub helps eliminate the buildup of dead skin cells and bacteria on the skin’s surface - reducing inflammation and the appearance of dark spots and wrinkles. This polish works wonders with just once-weekly use, so you don’t have to worry about ~too~ many steps added into your skincare routine.
Daily SPF Application
You know I will always shout this one from the rooftops! When it comes to slowing down signs of aging, it’s important to focus on preventing damage from the sun’s UV rays.
As much as 80% of skin changes associated with aging are caused by UV rays. Exposing the delicate skin on your face and neck to the sun without protection will degrade your skin’s collagen and elastin. The breakdown of these essential proteins in your skin {which help keep your skin supple and elastic} will result in wrinkles as the skin loses elasticity. The skin will thin, increasing the appearance of blood vessels and hyperpigmentation on the face.
My favorite SPF to use daily is Rhonda Allison’s Daytime Defense SPF. This is an ultra-refined complex SPF that provides sun protection without taking away from other aspects of your skincare routine. Not only does it provide sun protection, but it will also aid in protecting your skin from pollutants in the air.
It is a moist cream that glides onto the skin and leaves your skin feeling supple and moist all day long - and with SPF 30 it’s strong enough to protect from the sun’s rays even on a beach day.
Bonus: It doesn’t leave your skin feeling oily nor does it have the familiar sunscreen scent we all hate.
How To Select The Best Anti Aging Products
As I always say to my clients at Gameela Skin: there’s no one-size-fits all product for anti-aging, or skincare in general.
My clients have seen great results with the products I mentioned throughout this post, but if you want a customized routine designed to suit you, I recommend consulting a skincare professional at Gameela Skin {yes - that’s me}.
We can talk through all of your skincare concerns, and I can make specific recommendations based on your unique skin type and any aging concerns.
