Your Skin Routine is of the up most importance, It takes a consistent daily ritual to maintain healthy skin and of course what your routine is on a day to day basis depends on your age, skin type and environment, I am going to give general tips for all ages as to what your skin routine should look like, it is vital to keep up everyday maintenance for healthy skin, it doesn't matter if your in your teens, 20's 30's 40's 50's and beyond If you take good care of your skin you can have a beautiful complexion.

Teens & 20 somethings its never to early to start taking care of your skin, your routine can be very simple wash your face in the morning exfoliate one morning a week and moisturize.

Thirties  

Now is the time to really amp up your exfoliation regimen. Exfoliating used to be all about pimple prevention. Now, it's about boosting cell turnover, and you really have to do it twice a week to keep skin fresh and I recommend doing it in the morning rather than night time. Exfoliation normalizes the skin’s moisture barrier so it's better able to hold water. The balanced cocktail of acids with potent antioxidants in most products                           are serious soothers, like hyaluronic acid, squalene, and rose water. in your thirties Supporting collagen cells in their quest for stout, lineless smooth skin is essential and there is nothing that can do it better than retinoids, I like to use a retinol based product as my night time moisturizer and  my eye cream. Serums and eye creams aren't just important to use in your thirties but the need for them is now undeniable.

Forties

By the time you get to your 40s, you may start to notice more fine lines and wrinkles are beginning to form, more so around your eyes, this is very common, It is the time your skin starts to lose its collagen, as the skin is thinner around the eyes this is were most people will notice it first, because you are now losing collagen it makes the skin more delicate, So what's your best defense Retinoid cream. Retinoid creams will help the skin to produce its own natural collagen. The end result will be plump ,thick and smooth skin, you should wait at least 10-15 minutes after washing your face before applying it.  If your skin is damp, you might get irritation. 

Fifties and Sixties

Hormonal changes now come in to play and have a big impact on your skin. When you get to your 50's and 60's This is a time when the oil glands are way less active, It can be either during and or after the menopause, This means your skin can really become dry and very sensitive, In order to battle this get rid of foaming cleansers and start to use a cream or oil based ones instead. Foaming cleansers tend to strip your skin of its natural oils and you will be left with uncomfortable tight or dry skin or both , A cream or oil based cleanser is a lot more hydrating and will help with removing dirt , makeup and grime without that tight feeling.
