Anti-aging products are meant to prevent and treat the signs of aging on your skin. There are many anti-aging products available: serums, creams, masks, eye creams and scrubs are just a few. These products contain vitamins and antioxidants to reduce wrinkles and improve skin's elasticity and appearance. Implementing anti-aging products into your daily skin-care regimen will help your skin stay healthy and radiant.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Face wash/facial scrub Kaolin clay mask Anti-aging serum Anti-aging moisturizer Anti-aging eye cream
  1. Step 1

    Wash your face thoroughly with a low-lathering face wash or gentle facial scrub. Wash your face with warm water for one full minute, making sure to massage the skin gently. This will remove all dirt, oil and dead skin cells from your face and will enhance the performance of any products you apply afterward.

  2. Step 2

    Apply an anti-aging mask to clean skin once or twice a week. Allow mask to harden and leave on for 15 minutes, rinsing off with warm water and a washcloth. A traditional mud pack mask made from Kaolin clay softens lines and wrinkles while tightening sagging skin.

  3. Step 3

    Use a facial serum on clean, dry skin. Serums are packed with vitamins and anti-aging ingredients such as Hyaluronic Acid that provide intense hydration and increase skin's firmness. Serum formulas are more concentrated than a lotion or cream, and they have a greater impact on the skin when used regularly.

  4. Step 4

    Apply an anti-aging moisturizer that contains vitamins A, C and E and has an SPF of 15 or higher. These ingredients are known to improve the condition of skin by sloughing off dead skin cells, increasing elasticity of skin and protecting the skin from sun damage.

  5. Step 5

    Use an eye cream on the delicate skin under the eyes. Apply in small dots around the eye area and smooth until the cream absorbs into the skin. Anti-aging eye creams reduce puffiness, dark circles and wrinkles in the eye area.
