The ultimate skincare products should you add in your anti-aging skincare routine
Let’s begin by admitting that there is no correct age to begin your anti aging skincare routine. Stop escaping by saying that you are too young to start an anti-aging routine. As per the dermats, there is no correct time to start anti-aging routine. The time you are serious about your skincare game and the time you hit your 28+ it is the best time to begin thinking about anti-aging. And it’s always better to start early. So, don’t delay your anti-aging routine.
These are the products that you can add-in your anti-aging skincare routine in the late 20s, 30s, 40s and 50s
Let’s have a look at some of the best products which will help you to age gracefully
Cleanse
Cleansing once is not enough and thus double cleansing is highly recommended when you are thinking about an anti-aging skincare routine.
Try to cleanse once in the morning and once in the evening or before you sleep at night. Id possible try to do double cleansing at night. Use a foam-based cleanser as it will not be too harsh on your skin. And they are perfect for regular usage.
Product Recommendation
The Face Shop Rice Water Bright Rice Bran Cleansing Foam, Laneige Moist Cream Cleanser. Choose the products as per your skin type.
Toner
Toner is extremely important for oily or acne-prone skin. Toners are highly recommended to be used post cleansers because they shrink your pores. Toners also help to tighten your skin and reduces the penetration of external impurities on your skin. Some toners are also designed to trap the moisture on your skin and thus highly recommended for dry skin type.
Product Recommendation : Klairs Supple Preparation Facial Toner, The Body Shop Tea Tree Skin Clearing Mattifying Toner.

Serums
Serums as per me are the best revolution in skincare. They are usually water based, lightweight and highly effective. They focus on multiple skincare issues. If your concern is skin brightening and pigmentation, then you have serums for them as well. Serums are proven to be of multiple-use and ensure that your makeup is also smooth and flawless. Thus, it perfectly fits the bill of skincare as well as makeup.
Product Recommendation
Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Recovery Concentrate, Innisfree the Green Tea Seed Serum.
Vitamin C serum
Vitamin C serum would help in giving a healthy glowing skin. Not just that it is an amazing ingredient to get rid of dark spots, sun damage and pigmentations. This is again one of the most important product to be included in your routine.
Recommendation
If you’re in India the close your eyes and go for SUGANDA antioxidant serum. I LOVE IT. use the code KHADIJA10 to get Rs.100 off.
Taim vit c, The ordinary.
Hyaluronic Acid Serum
This is a wonder ingredient and a MUST HAVE in your anti-aging skincare routine. Hyaluronic acid holds moisture, deeply hydrates the skin, plumps the skin & prevents skin from sagging.

Facial Oil
This is mostly for the dry skin type. You can skip this step if you have any other skin type. In summers serums should do the job of moisturization, but if you feel that you need something stronger then facial oils are highly recommended. Also, in winters if you feel your moisturizer is not good in adding that dewy radiance to your face then facial oils are highly recommended.
Product recommendation
Bio Oil, Palmer’s Coconut Oil Formula Luminous Hydration Facial oil.
Moisturizer
Moisturizer is a must have when you are aiming to take care of the dryness issues on your skin. You might know that biggest reason for aging issues on your skin is lack of moisturization. And thus it is highly recommended to use a moisturizer all year round. You can change and play with the consistency of the moisturizer but a moisturizer is a must in your anti-aging kitty.
Product Recommendation
The Face Shop Chia Seed No Shine Intense Hydrating Cream, Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel
Sunscreen
Harsh Sun rays can be the biggest enemy of your skin. With overexposure to the sun, your skin texture depletes. Constant sun exposure decreases the collagen content in your skin and it can have serious skin pigmentation issues. Thus, always apply sunscreen even when you are not stepping out.
Even if it’s a cloudy day sunscreen is a must. Try to apply a minimum of SPF 30 when you are stepping outside. Below this will suffice the only indoor purpose.
Product Recommendation
Lotus Herbals Safe Sun UV Screen Matte Gel PA+++ SPF 50, Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry Touch Sun Block SPG 50+.

Sheet Masks
Sheet masks are another travel-friendly product. I love that it saves space in my home and in my travel bag as well. Also, they are extremely handy. Just open it and apply on your face and it gives you some extra time to rest as well. Just lie down with your eyes closed and you are set. They are perfect for instant brightening and moisturizing and thus highly recommended before parties.
Product recommendation
Nykaa Skin Secrets Sheet Masks, The face shop sheet masks.
Retinol
Retinol is the skincare ingredient that you should look out for in anti-aging products. They will help you in each and every sense in dealing with the wrinkles. Retinol prevents the appearance of new wrinkles on your skin and also it helps to diminish the appearance of old wrinkles as well. Retinol also accelerates the process of cell turnover and thus reduces skin pigmentation in the long run.
But make sure to start with lower concentration.
Product Recommendation
St. Botanica Retinol 2.5% + Vitamin E & Hyaluronic Acid, Clinique Fresh Pressed Clinical daily + Overnight boosters
Eye Cream
As we all know that the skin around the eyes is 40% thinner when compared to the rest of the skin. So, the application of eye cream is a must. Eye cream helps to keep the skin moisturized and thus reduces the appearance of wrinkles. It also keeps the under-eye area much firmer.
Product Recommendation
O3+ eye circle cream brightening & whitening dermal zone, Kaya Lighten and Smoothen under eye gel.
Supplements
Last but not least keep taking regular supplements for your skin. Of course you should concentrate on a wholesome diet with lots of liquid in it. But consuming some light supplements like vitamin E, omega 3 fatty acids won’t harm your skin. Still please consult a physician before using.
That is it. I hope you found this post helpful.
