Care for oily skin - main signs, remedies and prevention

The human body changes throughout his life. And aging occurs for everyone. For some, its first signs in the form of wrinkles, swelling of the oval and sagging appear a little later than 25. And for others, even at 40, they practically did not encounter these problems. Such a large gap is determined by genetics, lifestyle and, of course, care. So if you haven’t been taking care of yourself since your youth, passing the threshold of three decades of life is an excellent reason to start doing so.

In this article we will talk about skin care after 30 years and how to make your appearance admired for a very long time.

Proper skin care after 30

Let's look at what usually happens after reaching this age:

• Metabolism slows down.

• The process of lipid secretion is disrupted, the fat layer becomes thinner and the stratum corneum thickens.

• The epithelium gradually dries out.

• Due to the slowdown in the production of elastin and collagen fibers, wrinkles appear.

• Healthy fluid circulation is disrupted, leading to a deterioration in the general condition of the dermis.

• Muscle tone decreases: the corners of the mouth droop, nasolabial folds and sagging cheeks (the so-called jowls) appear.

As you can see, some of the unpleasant signs of fading are a direct consequence of the slowdown in the functioning of various body systems. Therefore, the first and most important measures to preserve youth and health apply not only to the face, but to the entire body as a whole. To maintain beautiful and smooth skin you need:

• A balanced healthy diet, including all the necessary nutrients. An improper diet, as well as a lack of vitamins and microelements, has a bad effect on the condition of the dermis. For example, riboflavin deficiency provokes inflammation on the face and cracks on the lips. A lack of retinol and tocopherol increases the likelihood of premature wrinkles, dryness and sagging. Include freshly squeezed juices with celery, parsley or cabbage in your menu. This will have a positive impact on your overall well-being and will significantly improve the condition of your skin.

• Rejection of bad habits. Alcohol leads to swelling with a simultaneous lack of fluid in the tissues. And smoking leads to the formation of those very free radicals that accelerate aging.

• Regular eight-hour sleep. It is necessary for the healthy functioning of the entire body. Proper rest reduces the likelihood of puffy eyelids and dark circles under the eyes.

• Moderate physical activity. They allow you to maintain the overall tone of all body systems.

• Drink 1.5–2 liters of clean water a day, start drinking green tea. Water is needed for metabolic processes. Green tea contains elements that help bind and remove free radicals and slow down aging. Try not to drink liquid a few hours before bedtime, otherwise it will not have time to leave the body and appear in the form of swelling the next morning.

Without following these recommendations - at least partially - even the highest quality cosmetics will not have sufficient impact. But, of course, to consolidate the result, a variety of care procedures are needed.

Prevention of early skin aging

To prevent early skin aging, you need to lead a healthy lifestyle. For example, morning jogging, exercises and hardening. You need to exercise several times a day. After physical activity:

• the blood will be distributed in the body, with it the organs and muscles will receive more oxygen;
• metabolism will occur faster;
• cells will be renewed.

Therefore, the aging of the body slows down.

You need to exercise and massage your face every day. There are many exercises, they do not require effort. They need to be done for a few minutes every day.

Stages of skin care after 30

These include:

• Cleansing.

• Giving tone.

• Nutrition and hydration.

• Protection.

In addition, from time to time it is worth using professional products and various salon procedures, such as ultrasonic peeling, lifting, vacuum massage and much more. When taking careful care, you should remember the area around the eyes, neck and hands - they also show age.

Cleansing

This is an obligatory part of morning and evening hygiene procedures. Because creams, masks, peeling, massage and much more are applied and carried out only on a cleansed face. Otherwise, their use will become practically meaningless; no substances will be able to penetrate deep into the epidermis through the stratum corneum of cells.

• Women over 30 are not recommended to use soap; wash only with clean water, a special tonic or foam. Those with an oily type should use foams and tonics. And ladies whose dermis is prone to dryness will benefit from cosmetic emulsions and milk. In the evening you should cleanse more thoroughly.

• It is better to use mineral or filtered water for washing. Very cold or hot will damage the skin, so you should prefer liquid at room temperature.

• In addition to daily cleansers, deep action masks should be used once or twice a week. The face needs to be prepared for such procedures - steamed with a steam bath, and only then applied.

• You should not wipe yourself after washing, so as not to cause dryness and irritation. It is better to blot lightly with a soft towel, being careful not to rub or stretch it.

Deep cleaning

Let's look at the features of using deep cleaning. Exfoliating ingredients help get rid of dead epithelium and protect the body from developing acne.

Scrubbing improves blood circulation and nourishes the dermis. For deep cleaning, you can use herbal compresses. They are done after washing. For preparation, string, chamomile or sage are suitable. Massage with scrub is used. In this case, the mixture is distributed over the skin and massaged for 2-3 minutes.

It is worth considering that you should not press hard on the surface, so as not to injure yourself. Then the skin should be moisturized with tonic or cream.

For the scrubbing procedure, you can use the following products:

1. For a clay scrub, white, black or green clay is used. Dilute a spoonful of powder with water. You can also take a fermented milk product.
2. Lemon salt scrub is made from a spoonful of salt, half a spoonful of water and lemon juice.
3. A sugar scrub is made from two teaspoons of brown sugar and three milk.

Try using homemade masks:

1. Beat the egg white until foamy. Then add a spoonful of liquid honey and a teaspoon of flour to it.
2. A cleansing mask is made from kefir, lemon and oatmeal. Take two kefir and three flakes per spoon of lemon juice.
3. 20 grams of yeast are crushed and mixed with cranberry juice. You can also add a little milk.

Remember that cleansing procedures are not used for rashes, as they can spread bacteria to healthy areas.

Hydration and nutrition

• For these procedures it is better to use special creams. After reaching your 30th birthday, you can safely buy cosmetics labeled anti-aging in stores. Such cosmetics will provide you with the necessary vitamins A, B, C, D, E, E, P, elastin, collagen, fruit acids and microelements.

• For these purposes, it offers the Beauty box “VitaMix” vitamin care complex. In addition, the Anti Age Mesococktail with AHA acids and other products in this series are suitable for all types. The compositions activate collagen production, promote renewal at the cellular level, improving the structure and tone of the dermis.

• It is worth using various facial serums. They contain much more useful substances than conventional creams. And their constant use is not recommended - limit yourself to two courses per year.

• Choose cosmetics that are appropriate for your age. Creams and masks for more mature skin reduce the natural synthesis of various elements.

• Night cream should not be applied right before bed. Since such products contain moisturizing components, they may not have time to be fully absorbed into the dermis.

Skin care around the eyes after 30

The dermis here is especially tender. This is where the first wrinkles usually appear. To care for this area, it is necessary to use special products.

For example, for the area around the eyes, he suggests using eye cream or HydroMAX serum. They relieve puffiness, smooth out wrinkles and increase firmness and elasticity.

Care for thin skin after 30

For this type of dermis, you can only use special fresh cosmetics marked “sensitive”. Due to its small thickness, this type requires especially careful and thorough care. In this case, you can use anti-aging products after 30 years, when the first expression wrinkles have formed. Twice a year you need to take a course of vitamins; vascular-strengthening dietary supplements will also be useful. Due to the great sensitivity, the ban on soap is especially strict. And homemade masks should not contain aggressive, drying components. Try to do without peeling. Many herbal compresses are prohibited, as well as wiping with ice to tone.

Replenish volume

The deep fat that gives our face texture gradually begins to move. The face appears more tired, and the first signs of gravitational ptosis may be noticeable. It's time to think about volumetric correction with fillers. Often girls are afraid to look artificial after the procedure, but this will not happen: a competent cosmetologist will simply restore the natural lost volume without adding anything extra to the face.

Care for oily skin after 30

The problem with such dermis is oily sheen. Attempts to remove it with the help of decorative cosmetics can only aggravate the problem, polluting the pores and leading to the appearance of acne. But properly selected care products can correct the difficulties. Appropriate alcohol-containing tonics and lotions, when applied morning and evening, will dry the surface and prevent the appearance of shine. Try not to use fatty compounds, and if you have to, blot the residue with a napkin.

How can you tell if you have oily skin?

Each skin type has its own indicators according to which basic care is selected. Oily epidermis is characterized by increased shine, especially in the T-zone and protruding parts of the oval - on the forehead, nose, cheekbones. You can carry out a standard test with a napkin, but it is more indicative for combination skin, since the signs of oily skin are obvious:

• enlarged pores;
• excessive sebum secretion;
• gray or earthy color;
• uneven structure;
• lack of velvety and smoothness;
• acne, blackheads.

Oily skin is more prone to inflammation than other types. But at the same time, people with this type later notice age-related changes.

Care for combination skin after 30

The peculiarity of this type is that it requires different care at different times of the year.

• In winter, you need to treat it as dry: use foam or milk to cleanse, use scrubs once a week or less, moisturize, apply protective compounds before going outside. If your skin is dry before bed, you should apply night moisturizers.

• In summer, the rules are different; the dermis is cared for as if it were oily. Here special lotions and tonics for mixed types, light creams and gels are used.

Scrubs in this case are used only for oily areas. Tonics should be chosen so that they can simultaneously moisturize and relieve inflammation. Look for creams that contain a variety of anti-inflammatory botanicals, such as plantain, sage, chamomile, tea tree, etc.

Causes of increased fat content

1. Genetic predisposition and individual characteristics. If parents are faced with the problem of excessive greasiness, then there is a high probability that the child will not escape this either.

2. Hormonal disorders. Including changes in hormonal levels during puberty, pregnancy, menopause, or endocrine pathologies.

3. Unbalanced diet. Excessive consumption of fatty or spicy foods, preservatives, alcohol and carbonated drinks. Insufficient water consumption leads to dehydration of the dermis and the release of excess sebum.

4. Improper skin care. The use of cosmetics that contain aggressive components and chemical additives that can cause allergic reactions and irritation of the epidermis.

5. Stressful conditions. In uncomfortable situations, cortisol (stress hormone) increases in the body, which provokes increased activity of the sebaceous glands.

6. Environmental influence. A polluted atmosphere, dry air, winds, excessive exposure to the open sun, sudden temperature changes, climate change - all this negatively affects the quality of the cover.
