We began the Skincare at Different Ages series discussing skincare during the teen years , your 20′s, your 30′s, your 40′s and your 50′s. What’s happening with your skin during your 60′s and what you can do with your routine and lifestyle to make a positive impact on your skin?

The skin is the largest organ of the body and is constantly renewing and changing… just as we are throughout our lives. So how do we keep it fresh, young, and vital? Starting with the teen years, and then work our way through the 20’s, 30’s, 40’s, 50’s, and finish with the 60’s and beyond; we’ll give you an idea of what is happening at these ages and tips on how to keep your skin healthy and vital.

Developing a skincare regimen is important and doing it consistently from any early age will help you to maintain youthful skin. Then as you go through life your skin will change and your regimen will need to be tweaked a bit to accommodate these changes.

Tips and Habits to Have Throughout Your Life:
• Stay out of the Sun and use SPF!
• Drink plenty of water
• Maintain a healthy diet
• Develop great skincare habits from an early age and consistently take care of your skin

Your 60’s and Beyond

During these years you’re losing more elasticity and your cell turnover is much slower at this time in your life. You will see dryness all over the skin and sagging around mouth and eyelids. Your skin may bruise easier, may become rough, and is more susceptible to lesions such as benign tumors.

Hydration is a must! Using a mist that is alcohol free on skin throughout the day will help balance PH. Make sure you’re keeping your skin moisturized and are using anti-aging products.

Continue staying out of the sun, maintaining a healthy diet, drinking water, and keeping a balanced life. Good digestion is key. Eat fresh berries, salmon, and lots of fresh green veggies.

In Health and Beauty,
