Fine Lines & Wrinkles FAQs
What is the difference between fine lines and wrinkles?
Fine lines are superficial and closer to skin's surface while wrinkles are more deep-set. As you age, many fine lines may turn into wrinkles as skin loses elasticity and firmness.
What causes fine lines and wrinkles?
Over time and with exposure to UV rays and pollution, collagen and elastin in the skin may become damaged which causes skin to gradually lose its firmness and elasticity. As this happens, fine lines can form that may eventually turn into deep-set lines and wrinkles.
How can you visibly reduce wrinkles and fine lines?
There are ways to make fine lines and wrinkles less visible. If your skin is dehydrated, use a moisturizer or hydrating serum to help plump and smooth the appearance of fine lines. For deeper-set lines, use an anti-wrinkle serum which can help improve skin's elasticity and firmness. An eye cream or serum can also help address the delicate skin around the eye area where early lines and crow's feet often first appear.
What skincare ingredients help visibly reduce fine lines and wrinkles?
For younger-looking skin, look for formulas with a sufficient level of potent ingredients to help visibly smooth and plump the appearance of fine lines. Some of the most trusted ingredients used in formulas to target lines and wrinkles are Vitamin C, Hyaluronic Acid, and Retinol and Pro-Retinol.
What are the best products for fine lines?
If you are just beginning to notice fine lines, start with a routine that can help hydrate skin. Use an eye treatment that targets concerns specific to the eye area and add a Vitamin C serum or other targeted formulas to help visibly reduce fine lines and wrinkles. Apply a daily sunscreen every morning to help reduce future damage.
What are the best products for wrinkles?
As fine lines begin to deepen, you may want to add more targeted treatments to your routine. Follow your gentle cleanser and toner with a targeted anti-wrinkle serum and swap your daily moisturiser with an anti-aging face cream. Rain or shine, defend skin with SPF to help prevent damage from UV rays.
