Where do the first signs of ageing start?

Have you ever tried to estimate someone’s age just by looking at his or her face? 

What are the telling signs that reveal their true age and how can you be so sure?

As you may already know, wrinkles on the neck, crows’ feet around the eyes and laugh lines around the mouth area will betray your age immediately. 

Neck 

The skin on your neck is thinner than the skin on your face, making it more susceptible to signs of ageing first, including wrinkles and sagging. Although it's a natural part of the ageing process, the good news is that it can be delayed and reduced if you start neck care at an early age, and slow down the rate of ageing in this area if you are currently experiencing this! To do so, start promising yourself a simple rule to stick by - never forget sunscreen. 

Try Morning Glow - Unlike a chemical sunscreen that gets absorbed into your bloodstream upon application, Morning Glow is a physical sunscreen that forms a shield on the surface layer of your skin, deflecting harmful UV rays that tries to penetrate and cause premature ageing! Morning Glow is also hydrating and contains ceramides that can help reduce hyperpigmentation and reduce signs of wrinkles!

Mouth 

Although subtle for some, another area that reveals one’s age would be the mouth region, looking specifically at laugh lines and wrinkled areas around the lips and corners of the mouth. Laugh lines appear due to a natural decrease in collagen and elastin found in the skin, which then causes your skin to become less firm and less elastic. Collagen levels will also decrease with age, resulting in depleting levels and is the main culprit of laugh lines! 

Eyes

Like the neck, our eyes actually have the thinnest of skin as compared to the rest of our body! This causes wrinkles to form more easily, coupled with constant exposure to sun and external aggressors like pollution in the air, which can all contribute to fine lines around the eyes. Using muscles that control your eye movements excessively when you smile, frown or squint also causes early formation of wrinkles and crow’s feet to appear! The main culprit of crow’s feet is also due to a loss of skin elasticity and collagen, on top of constant eye muscle movement. 

Try Gentle Gaze - An eye cream that is dedicated to target multiple skin concerns at once, including reducing appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, crow’s feet and laugh lines, as well as aiming to help even the most sensitive skin types to have hydrated skin around the eyes and illuminating them to give a youthful, gentle, gaze! 

There is no set rule in the world that states that eye cream is only suitable for use on the eyes! In fact, you can use Gentle Gaze on laugh lines around the mouth, fine lines around the nose area, and even for wrinkles on your neck! 

With premium superfood ingredients such as red ginseng that is sourced directly from its origin home country, Korea, Gentle Gaze is an eye cream you wouldn't want to miss out on!
