Skin Care Here’s The Best Anti-Ageing Skincare Routine For Mom

Motherhood is an incredible journey that brings with it many joys and challenges. But as moms, it's easy to overlook your own self-care while prioritising the children. However, with age and hormonal changes, your skin undergoes a lot of changes, causing dryness, dullness and dark patches. This is why, it is more important for you to devote some time to follow a dedicated skincare routine while you provide the best life for your kids. And what better occasion than Mother’s Day to kickstart this self-care journey. So, whether you are a mother looking for anti-ageing skincare advice or a daughter/ son looking for skincare gifts for your mom, here is a dedicated routine for skincare for moms to help them look youthful and radiant.

Step 1: Cleanse

Cleansing is the first and most important step of any skincare routine. With age, the regeneration process of the skin slows down, allowing dead skin cells to accumulate on the skin’s surface. Cleansing helps remove dirt, oil, grime, pollutants and sebum from the skin while deep cleaning your pores. Look for a mild, soap-free cleanser that suits your skin type and does not strip off the natural oils from the skin. In the night-time skincare routine, it is best to opt for double cleansing to remove all makeup, sebum, dirt and pollutants residue thoroughly before you hit the bed. Massage the cleanser gently on your skin in a circular motion with warm water for at least 60 seconds. Rinse off and pat dry.

If you are looking for a hydrating cleanser, try the Revitalift Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Gel Cleanser. It is a creamy and ultra-fine foam that deeply penetrates your pores and clears impurities and makeup effectively. It hydrates your skin without making your skin dry.

Step 2: Exfoliate

It's important to exfoliate your skin weekly to remove the dead skin cells and impurities stuck in the pores of your skin. However, it’s crucial to use an exfoliator gently and occasionally. Do not scrub your skin roughly or use harsh microbeads on the skin. Depending on your skin type and concern, you can exfoliate once or twice a week and look for ingredients like glycolic acid, salicylic acid or lactic acid, which help to boost cell turnover and promote a more radiant complexion.

Step 3: Apply Serum

Facial serums contain concentrated ingredients that penetrate deep into the skin to give faster and better results. Before picking a serum for your routine, identify your skin concerns and accordingly opt for ingredients that your skin needs. For example, if your skin is dull and dry, you can look for facial serums that contain hyaluronic acid to plump and hydrate the skin. For dark spots, pigmentation and brightness, you can opt for vitamin C serum. Similarly, retinol helps reduce acne, accelerate cell turnover, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

Try the L’Oréal Paris Revitalift 1.5 % Hyaluronic Acid Face Serum formulated with the highest concentration of hyaluronic acid. It is made of a lightweight, non-sticky formula that intensely hydrates the skin, leaving it plump and radiant.

Step 4: Use Eye cream

One skincare product necessary for mom is an eye cream. The area around your eyes is more delicate than the rest of the face. Eye creams help nourish your under eyes and reduce the appearance of fine lines. Look for an eye cream that contains peptides, retinol, niacinamide, etc., to help to boost collagen production and reduce to reduce dark circles and puffiness.

Step 5: Moisturise

Moisturisation provides nourishment and hydration while locking your skin’s natural moisture. The skin loses moisture rapidly when you age, causing wrinkles and sagging. Moisturisation helps improve the appearance of your skin, and reduce fine lines and wrinkles, making your skin plumper and smoother. Look for ingredients like peptides, ceramides, hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, etc., in the moisturiser. You can also use a lightweight, non-comedogenic, oil-free formula for oily and acne-prone skin. Similarly, it is best to opt for a richer, more hydrating formula for normal to dry skin.

Step 6: SPF

Sun damage can significantly affect your skin’s health, causing premature ageing and pigmentation. Therefore, applying sunscreen is a non-negotiable step in a skincare routine.
