How Can I Improve My Skin in My 40s?

You can improve your skin in your 40s by developing a comprehensive skincare routine that hydrates, heals, and protects your skin.

Whether you’re diving into skincare for the first time or looking to adjust your routine, it’s never too late to take care of your body’s largest organ: your skin! There are several different ways you can achieve a healthy, youthful glow—regardless of where you are in life’s journey.

So, if you’re looking for ways to take care of your skin throughout your 40s, we’ve rounded up a few ways to do just that.

Use collagen-infused face masks to hydrate and protect your skin

If you’re not already using collagen in your skincare routine, now is the perfect time to start! In your 40s, your body’s collagen production begins to slow down, which can accelerate the visible signs of aging.

As a result, it’s essential to boost production with collagen-infused face masks and antioxidant-rich face serums.

Face serums contain a wide range of effective anti-aging ingredients that aren’t typically found in cleansers, moisturizers, or oils. These include licorice root extract and vitamin E, which heal damaged skin, reduce those stubborn age spots, and help to combat UV damage.

Revive dull skin with the healing powers of gemstones

As one of the best anti-aging tools, gemstone rollers can be beneficial for skin of any age—and they really work wonders for the under-eye area!

Rose quartz is naturally cooling, but for extra anti-aging benefits, keep your face roller in the fridge and use it each morning to reduce puffiness. As a do-it-all skincare tool, gemstone rollers have also been known to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, thanks to their ability to stimulate circulation.

By incorporating a rose quartz roller into your skincare routine, you can help plump up sunken skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines. While other gemstone rollers, like jade, can effectively revive dull skin, rose quartz has unique healing and spiritual properties that can help take your skincare routine to the next level.

Calmness, inner peace, and enhanced self-love plus skincare benefits? What more could you want?!?

Don’t forget about your neck

In your 40s, don’t neglect your neck. Instead of solely focusing on your face, be sure to regularly support the health of your neck by applying sunscreen, facial serum, and moisturizer there. For the best results, apply your skincare products to your neck each morning and night.

We hate to be the bearers of bad news, but if you’re only focusing on your face, your neck will show signs of aging over time.

If your neck and chest are already showing some signs of aging—or if you need an extra boost of hydration—décolleté masks can help reduce the appearance of fine lines, dullness, and discoloration by brightening and restoring your skin.
