Unlocking the Fountain of Youth: Reverse the Look of Aging

Unlocking the Fountain of Youth: Reverse the Look of Aging

Ever wished that there was a way in which you could reverse aging so that you could once again rock a smooth, firm, and wrinkle-free complexion?

Although you may not be able to literally turn back the clock, the right skincare products and techniques are all you need to keep your skin looking youthful for many more years to come. Read on as Celestolite shares some top tips for reversing the appearance of skin aging:

Protect Your Skin From the Aging Effects of the Sun

If you’re hoping to reverse aging, one of your main priorities should be to protect your skin from the sun. After all, UV rays are the biggest contributor to skin aging, causing up to 80% of the lines and discoloration that develop on the skin. They slowly destroy the collagen and elastin fibers that keep your skin firm and bouncy, leading to a wrinkled and sagging complexion.

The more you protect your skin from the sun, the longer it will take for your complexion to age. Even if you think that you may be too late for prevention, you’re not. You could fill your skincare routine with the finest skincare products around but they won’t do much to help if, at the same time, your skin is constantly battling UV damage.

With the Celestolite Nova Bright Skin Cream (SPF 30), keeping your skin safe is easy. This two-in-one formula will not only shield your skin from UV rays but also acts as a moisturizer. Its hydrating ingredients and antioxidants will immediately have your skin looking smoother and more supple.

Cleanse Gently

Cleansing is one of the most fundamental steps of any skincare routine. It’s an essential. Fail to properly cleanse your skin and not only will you be accelerating the aging process by leaving all of those impurities and free radicals to wreak their damage on your skin cells, but the rest of your skincare products will also fail to bring about an improvement. Due to the surface layer of impurities on your skin, they’ll struggle to penetrate through and reach your skin cells.

However, over-cleansing isn’t going to help you to reverse aging either. The harsher you are with your skin, the more irritation and inflammation you’ll cause. This will only age your skin even faster.

The key to cleansing successfully is to cleanse gently. Avoid overly potent cleansers, opting instead for moisturizing formulas, like the Estrella Mousse Cleanser. Use it twice a day, once in the morning and then again at night, and you’ll be able to keep your complexion fresh, clear, and healthy.

Hydrate as Much as Possible

As you grow older, your skin grows thinner. This affects the skin in a few different ways, one of which is by inhibiting moisture retention. The thinner your skin is, the faster the moisture from within your skin will evaporate into the air. 

Once your skin starts to feel even a tiny bit dehydrated, the visible signs of aging will become even more noticeable. Wrinkles will look deeper, your complexion will look duller and rougher, and discoloration will become even more shadowy and darker.

This is why hydration needs to be a big focus if you’re hoping to reverse aging. The better hydrated your skin is, the fuller, plumper, and brighter it will look.

How can you keep your skin hydrated? In addition to drinking plenty of water, add humectants to your skincare routine. Ingredients such as sodium hyaluronate, glycerin, peptides, and collagen are all revered for their moisture-binding properties. You’ll find all four of those humectants in the Celestolite Mars Stellar Serum. Add this to both your morning and evening skincare routine and you’ll be able to keep your skin happily quenched.

Invest in Antioxidants

Remember how we talked about the sun accelerating the skin aging process? This is down to free radical damage, which UV rays trigger. However, other factors cause free radical damage too, from environmental pollution to various chemicals. Even certain skincare ingredients can lead to free radical damage!

Sadly, free radical damage is almost impossible to avoid. The good news is that antioxidants can help you to keep this visible damage to a minimum while also repairing the appearance of any existing damage.

For best results, combine a variety of antioxidants in your skincare routine. These ingredients always work best when they’re used alongside other antioxidants, so find yourself some products that blend several antioxidants together.

This is exactly what the Celestolite Estrella Renewing Vitamin C Serum does. It contains three of the best antioxidants around; vitamins A, C, and E. In fact, you’ll find two types of vitamin C in this serum, making it even more capable of transforming your complexion. 

Work on Lightening the Look of Dark Spots

It’s not just wrinkles that can make you and your skin look older. Dark spots have this effect too. Just like wrinkles, they’re primarily caused by UV exposure. When you spend too much time in the sun, all of that extra melanin that your skin produces needs to go somewhere. There’s too much of it for it to be evenly dispersed throughout your skin, causing clusters of pigment that lead to dark spots on the skin’s surface.

Just like wrinkles, the appearance of dark spots can take a while to fade. Although they sometimes disappear on their own, it can be years before this happens. 

Fortunately, with the right skincare products, you can speed this process up. This is why we designed the Celestolite Nova Dark Spot Corrector. It’s packed with a number of proven ingredients. From arbutin and kojic acid to vitamin C, green tea, and peptides, it’s a high-powered formula that, when used regularly, will soon have your skin tone looking brighter and more even.

Know When and How to Exfoliate

Just like cleansing, exfoliation is another essential step in every skincare routine. It works on a deeper level than a cleanser, clearing dead skin cells, excess sebum, and other impurities out from the pores. Exfoliate your skin and you’ll immediately notice that it looks smoother and more radiant.

With the effects of exfoliation being so instantaneous, those who are extremely eager to reverse aging sometimes make the mistake of exfoliating too often or using an overly harsh exfoliant. Unfortunately, both lead to symptoms of over-exfoliation. Not only can this cause irritation and inflammation, but it can also accelerate skin aging.

To get your exfoliation efforts right, start by finding a gentle exfoliator. The Celestolite Estrella Facial Peel would be a good choice, with this formula suitable for all skin types. 

Then, work out how often your skin needs to be exfoliated. If your skin type is dry, you’ll only need to exfoliate once, or maybe twice, a week. On the other hand, those with oily skin may need to exfoliate up to three times a week. Don’t be tempted to overdo it – finding the right exfoliation frequency for your skin is vital if you want to keep it looking youthful!

Turn to LED Technology

Topical skincare products are great but having to wait for several weeks for a new product to start working can feel excruciating. If you’re hoping to see results ASAP, consider adding an LED light therapy device to your skincare routine.

Do these devices really work? 100%. There are numerous studies out there confirming the many ways in which LED light therapy can boost the complexion. Red light is revered for how it firms up the look of the skin and reduces the appearance of wrinkles. Meanwhile, blue light soothes the feeling of inflammation, therefore minimizing the look of acne breakouts.

With an LED light therapy device that offers multiple modes, such as the Photonix-2 Eye Wand, you’ll be able to use that device for life. No matter the visible skin concerns that may arise as you age, you’ll be able to turn to your LED light therapy device to restore the appearance of youth and vitality to your complexion. 

Keep Your Body Active

If your main goal is to reverse aging, then not only do you need to pay attention to your skincare routine, but your lifestyle choices should come under scrutiny too. A sedentary lifestyle, for example, could be aging your skin faster than you would have imagined.

It’s common knowledge that exercise is essential for keeping the body healthy. However, many don’t realize that it has the same effect on the skin too. In fact, one study found that vigorous exercise can lead to visibly younger-looking skin, mitigating the appearance of wrinkles and sagging.

How does this work? It all comes down to skin cell metabolism. The faster this is, the better your skin cells will perform. Exercise speeds this up, resulting in an improvement in the feeling of skin firmness and elasticity. The best results can be seen when exercise is done regularly, so start making a habit of this if you haven’t already done so!

Feed Your Skin From Within

While a good skincare routine will ensure that you’re giving your skin plenty of nutrients from the outside, you also need to pay attention to what you’re feeding your skin from within. If your diet consists largely of heavily processed foods, your skin cells will be lacking. This will leave your skin looking much older than its years.

You’re probably already aware of the foods that you should be eating. Fresh fruits and vegetables are at the top of the list, with these being loaded with skin-loving vitamins and antioxidants. Whole grains, lean proteins, nuts, and seeds will also provide your skin cells with everything that they need to thrive. Stay away from excessive alcohol consumption, along with high amounts of salt and sugar, and your skin should start to look better in no time!

The Bottom Line

Although you may not be able to literally reverse aging in your skin, there is so much that you can do to make your skin look and feel significantly younger. Make a few changes to your skincare routine while also ensuring that your lifestyle habits are skin-friendly and you’ll be able to keep the visible signs of aging at bay for the foreseeable future!
