We are constantly in search of perfection when it comes to our skin. It has a massive effect on our confidence and the way in which we perceive the world. Things such as uneven skin tone, dullness and fine lines and wrinkles in our skin can leave us feeling a little deflated when it comes to our skin. There are ways in which we can avoid those feelings by spending some more time on ourselves in the morning when it comes to our skincare.
When your skincare works for you, you can feel a lot better in yourself. So how do we conquer this as there’s so much information about skincare and most of it conflicting! We would suggest looking at the ingredients within your skincare and what that is supposed to do for your skin.
For those who are looking to avoid the signs of ageing such as fine lines and wrinkles, you should focus on boosting the volume of your skin. Ingredients such as Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide and Peptides are helpful when it comes to not only boosting moisture in your skin but also protecting your skin from anything it may come across during the day. In addition to the consistent use of sun cream. This is because of the fact that UV light is one of the biggest agers for our skin. UVA is the form of radiation linked with the signs of ageing and with skin cancer, and can reach the skin even through glass. Whereas, UVB is the form most responsible for sunburn and malignant melanoma. Using UV protection is necessary even in cold or cloudy weather, as the sun’s ultraviolet radiation is still able to penetrate.
Hyaluronic Acid is a well-known ingredient in the world of cosmeceuticals for moisture and helping to prevent fine lines and wrinkles. ‘Hyaluronic Acid, is naturally occurring in the human body,' says Dia Foley, which means that it is possible to use it on all skin types including those with very sensitive skin. In addition to this Hyaluronic Acid has been known to hold 1000x its weight in water and draws the water into your skin without flooding it.

Niacinamide, also known as Vitamin B3 has a great reputation in skincare as being very helpful for many different jobs. It has been known as an anti-inflammatory and can be helpful in the treatment of acne as well as treating fine lines and wrinkles. "It has been shown to strengthen the skin barrier function, making it especially beneficial for skin prone to dehydration," says Shabir Daya. This ability to improve your skin’s natural barrier helps to prevent your skin from losing water as a result of environmental damage. As we know the loss of water from our skin can cause the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as building blocks of proteins such as collagen and elastin. These are both proteins that we tend to lose as we age and can lead to changes in your skin’s texture and less bounce to your skin. Including this into your skin can help to boost the production of these very important proteins and give your skin a boost. “New peptides. These are just wildly significant for skin as they are performance-specific. Each one is designed to communicate a different skincare task such as improving skin colour, hydration, firming skin or making new fibroblasts. Unbelievable, and they’re compatible with all of the other brilliant anti-ageing ingredients currently in use so the consumer gets even greater benefit,” says Paula Begoun.
