These changes can include a loss of elasticity, dryness, fine lines and wrinkles, age spots, and a dull complexion. The aging process is a natural part of life, but certain factors can accelerate it, such as sun exposure, pollution, smoking, and a poor diet.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The science behind skin aging shows that fat is lost below the skin in the face, specifically the cheeks, chin, nose, eye area and temples, which causes the skin to appear wrinkled and loose. Bone and cartilage loss cause the face to appear more skeletal-like and the bony structures may appear more accentuated.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cumulative sun exposure can trigger melanin production causing uneven skin tone, hyperpigmentation and age spots.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How quickly and pronounced this occurs, depends on factors such as:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Genetics.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lifestyle and environmental factors, including exposure to UV and pollution.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mechanical aging caused by muscle movements like smiling and frowning.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We\u2019ve written two articles that give you some more information about the skin and how you can take your learning to that next level.

As we age, our body produces less of these proteins, leading to sagging and wrinkles.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Free radical damage<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Free radicals are unstable molecules that can damage our skin cells and accelerate the aging process. Exposure to environmental pollutants, UV radiation, and smoking can increase the production of free radicals.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Dryness<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we age, our skin produces less oil, leading to dryness and a dull complexion.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Hormonal changes<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hormonal changes during menopause can cause a decrease in estrogen levels, leading to thinning, dryness, and sagging of the skin.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Genetics<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Genetics can also play a role in how our skin ages.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Essentially, skin aging is classified into two categories:&nbsp;<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first is <\/span><b>intrinsic aging<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 the natural or chronological aging of the skin. The second is <\/span><b>extrinsic aging<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> which is caused by external physical, environmental and chemical factors such as exposure to UV radiation. According to many sources, extrinsic aging accounts for over 70% of visible signs of aging.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Natural chronological aging contributes to the appearance of the skin through natural loss of subcutaneous tissues and supports, and decline in sebum production. Skin cells take longer to regenerate. Diminished sex hormones lead to dryness, wrinkling, epidermal atrophy, collagen breakdown and loss of elasticity.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other, more controllable extrinsic factors will also actively contribute and accelerate skin aging and appearance:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><b> UV and environmental exposures:&nbsp;<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sunlight, or ultraviolet radiation (UVR) accelerates skin aging causing premature wrinkles and \u2018sun spots\u2019, also referred to as age spots, liver spots or solar lentigo. This process is known as photo-aging.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As skin ages, it thins, loses moisture due to transepidermal water loss, and becomes more dry and dehydrated. This is a normal process, however it may be accelerated or intensified due to UV damage.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Furthermore, exposure to environmental pollutants, synthetic toxins and carcinogens takes a toll on the skin\u2019s health and appearance, as do everyday environmental elements such as wind, cold, rain and snow.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><b> Gravity, facial movement and sleep position can contribute to changes in the skin:<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When the skin loses its elasticity, gravity causes drooping and looseness such as around the eyelids and jaw. Facial movement lines also become more visible and lines may appear in areas such as the forehead and around the mouth.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The characteristics of mature or aging skin&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we age, our skin also ages and changes to become more dry, dehydrated and rough feeling; wrinkled, slack and sagging; thin and more transparent; fragile and possibly more sensitive or prone to irritation.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Typically, aging skin is characterized by a number of visible signs and we have several listed here:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Dry skin<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A decrease in oil production can cause dryness and a dull complexion.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Rough skin and a dull looking complexion<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During the aging process, skin loses its softness, texture and color which makes it appear rough and dull. This happens as the barrier repair function reduces, the skin becomes dry and the skin cells slow down the rate of production.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Fine lines and wrinkles<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we age, our skin becomes less elastic, leading to the formation of fine lines and wrinkles.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Age spots<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Exposure to UV radiation can lead to the development of age spots, which are flat, brown spots on the skin.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/www.schoolofnaturalskincare.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2023\/03\/Age-Spots.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Formulating Natural Skincare Products For Mature or Aging Skin: Causes, Characteristics &amp; Our Top Recommendations Skincare Formulation \" class=\"wp-image-138085\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.schoolofnaturalskincare.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2023\/03\/Age-Spots.jpg.webp 1000w, https:\/\/www.schoolofnaturalskincare.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2023\/03\/Age-Spots-300x200.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.schoolofnaturalskincare.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2023\/03\/Age-Spots-768x512.jpg.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Loss of skin firmness<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This leads to areas of saggy skin that have lost tightness, elasticity and tone.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Thinning of the skin<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we age, our skin becomes thinner, making it more prone to bruising and tearing.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Hyperpigmentation<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we age, our skin becomes less efficient at repairing damage caused by UV radiation and other environmental factors. This can lead to the accumulation of melanin, the pigment that gives our skin its color, in certain areas of the skin, resulting in dark spots, age spots, and other forms of hyperpigmentation. Additionally, hormonal changes that occur during menopause can also contribute to the development of hyperpigmentation in women. While hyperpigmentation is a natural part of the aging process, it can also be exacerbated by sun exposure, smoking, and other lifestyle factors.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fortunately, there are natural ingredients and skincare solutions that can help reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and promote more even-toned, radiant-looking skin.

However, it&#8217;s important to use a gentle exfoliator and avoid over-exfoliating, which can damage the skin.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"3\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><b> Use a serum<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:&nbsp;<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Serums are concentrated formulas that can penetrate the skin deeply and deliver potent ingredients. Look for serums that contain antioxidants, hydrating ingredients, and collagen-boosting ingredients.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"4\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><b> Moisturize daily<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:&nbsp;<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keeping the skin hydrated is key to maintaining its health and preventing dryness and fine lines. Look for a moisturizer that contains natural, nourishing ingredients like hyaluronic acid, argan oil, or rosehip oil.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"5\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><b> Protect your skin from the sun<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:&nbsp;<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">UV radiation can cause free radical damage and accelerate the aging process. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 every day, even on cloudy days.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"6\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><b> Get enough sleep<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:&nbsp;<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Getting enough sleep is important for maintaining the health of your skin. Aim for at least 7-8 hours of sleep each night.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"7\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><b> Eat a healthy diet<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:&nbsp;<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eating a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean protein can provide your skin with the nutrients it needs to stay healthy and vibrant. Ensure your diet is rich in antioxidants, and apply antioxidants topically to counter environmental free-radical damage to cells.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"8\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><b> Stay hydrated<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Drinking plenty of water can help keep your skin hydrated and improve its overall health.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A final piece of advice to help with this issue is to adopt a simple skincare regime, as early on as possible \u2013 which nourishes, hydrates, balances and gently cares for the skin.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is best to cleanse with a mild cleanser which will not strip the skin\u2019s natural oils and disrupt its delicate balance. Some people find that incorporating regular gentle exfoliation (one to two times per week, at most), keeps skin looking renewed, fresh and glowing.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Employ the use of anti-aging ingredients \u2013 some level of reversing skin aging and damage is possible with the help of certain high-performance ingredients. For example, retinoids like tretinoin (Vitamin A), found in rosehip seed oil, minimizes the appearance of wrinkles, boosts elasticity, fades sun damage and slows collagen breakdown in the skin. Antioxidants like Vitamin C, Vitamin E or coenzyme Q10 lower the oxidative stress in the skin. This helps to protect the skin from collagen breakdown.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AHAs are used as an anti-aging treatment; they can increase the skin\u2019s elasticity and firmness, stimulate collagen synthesis, and help with hyperpigmentation and sun damage. They can help to brighten the skin and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Licorice extract minimizes melanin production, evens out the skin tone of sun-damaged skin, and reduces the above.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remember, we can\u2019t reverse the aging process, but we can slow it down and age gracefully \ud83d\ude42. There are plenty of ways to help and we hope this article is useful.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/www.schoolofnaturalskincare.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2023\/03\/Coconut-Illipe-and-Green-Tea-Cleansing-Balm.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Formulating Natural Skincare Products For Mature or Aging Skin: Causes, Characteristics &amp; Our Top Recommendations Skincare Formulation \" class=\"wp-image-138088\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.schoolofnaturalskincare.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2023\/03\/Coconut-Illipe-and-Green-Tea-Cleansing-Balm.jpg.webp 1000w, https:\/\/www.schoolofnaturalskincare.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2023\/03\/Coconut-Illipe-and-Green-Tea-Cleansing-Balm-300x200.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.schoolofnaturalskincare.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2023\/03\/Coconut-Illipe-and-Green-Tea-Cleansing-Balm-768x512.jpg.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why Making Your Own Skincare Products is Better than Buying Products <\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mature or aging skin requires a skincare routine that addresses its specific needs. By using natural, nourishing ingredients and following a few simple skincare solutions, you can improve the health and appearance of your skin. With the right approach and ingredients, you can maintain healthy, vibrant, and youthful-looking skin well into your golden years.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you choose to create your own natural skincare products, you\u2019ll have a huge advantage because you can select the very best ingredients for your products that match your skin type, needs and preferences. When you make your own products, you have control over the ingredients and can ensure that you&#8217;re using natural, nourishing ingredients that are free from harsh chemicals and additives.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s also cheaper to make your own products than buying from a store because you don\u2019t need to worry about paying all your business overheads or adding a profit margin on top. The good news for the budding beauty entrepreneur is it is cheap to make your own products so there is plenty of room for a profit between your cost price and sale price!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To find out more about pricing your natural beauty products, we wrote a couple of articles that you might find useful:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.schoolofnaturalskincare.com\/how-to-properly-price-skincare-products\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>How do I Calculate my Natural Cosmetic Beauty Brand Prices to Make a Profit?<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.schoolofnaturalskincare.com\/pricing-your-natural-beauty-products-for-profit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>Pricing Your Natural Beauty Products for Profit: How to Calculate the Perfect Product Selling Price<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best thing to do if you want to formulate your own natural skincare products is learn from trained, qualified and experienced professionals.
