Our Director of Education and Aesthetician, McKenzie Rose answers your most asked anti-aging skincare questions. Keep reading to learn how to build the best routine to combat aging skin.

What age should you start using anti-aging skincare?

Generally, it’s best to start anti-aging skincare in your mid-20s to early 30s. Biossance products with squalane and other age-defying ingredients support skin resilience and help delay visible signs of aging.

When you start your skincare journey, it doesn’t need to be overwhelming. It just needs to be consistent, with quality products. A cleanser, moisturizer, and sunscreen are great steps in your teenage years. In your 20+ years, depending on your personal skin goals, focusing on a healthy skin barrier, proper hydration, and of course sun protection are top of the list. Generally, 30-35+ is when the phrase “anti-aging” becomes more alluring and adding in a targeted serum or eye cream for prevention of lines and wrinkles would be a great addition.

When should you start anti-aging skincare?

The ideal time to begin anti-aging skincare is when you first notice changes in your skin’s elasticity or hydration. Biossance’s lightweight yet effective products offer immediate and long-term results to help maintain a youthful glow.

What is the best skincare for anti-aging?

We all have different aging concerns. Serums make for the best first step towards effective anti-aging skincare, as they are formulated to target specific concerns. For example, our Firm and Lift Dual Serum targets elasticity and smoothing the look of fine lines and wrinkles, while our Lactic Acid Resurfacing Serum targets uneven texture and congested pores.

How does squalane benefit anti-aging skincare?

Squalane is the best choice to support our skin, our body’s largest organ, with powerful hydration that mimics the skin’s natural oils. Squalane helps to lock in moisture and boost elasticity—key factors in maintaining a youthful appearance. Squalane also works with other skincare actives, allowing them to work harder and more efficiently.

Can anti-aging skincare prevent wrinkles?

Yes, consistent use of anti-aging skincare, especially formulas rich in squalane and antioxidants, can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and prevent deeper wrinkles from forming. But let’s remember that aging is a privilege, and we are all going to show our life experiences on our body in some form, so don’t fear the wrinkles! But, we can slow their appearance with quality, consistent skincare, and most importantly, sun protection.

How does Biossance’s anti-aging skincare support collagen production?

Your skin naturally produces collagen. As we age, collagen synthesis begins to slow down. Lucky for us, we can make lifestyle choices and skincare choices to help encourage healthier collagen support in our skin. Ingredients such as Vitamin C and Peptides are phenomenal for stimulating collagen production and improving skin elasticity. Biossance products include these active ingredients and more.

What is an ideal anti-aging skincare routine?

Step 2: Hydrate Eyes

The skin around your eye area is thinner than elsewhere on your face, making it more delicate and susceptible to dehydration. Our multi-award-winning Marine Algae Eye Cream delivers deep moisture to keep under-eye skin smooth and hydrated all day long. Paracress extract instantly lifts and firms while pink marine algae, a natural source of peptides, plumps fine lines and wrinkles.
