SKINCARE IN YOUR 40s
Starting around the age of 40, dehydration becomes a prominent issue as the skin's ability to retain moisture weakens, with diminishing cell adhesion and reduced lipid content in the stratum corneum. Hyaluronic acid, responsible for retaining water, starts to decline, resulting in skin appearing dull and fine lines becoming more noticeable. Hyperpigmentation intensifies due to melanocytes overproducing pigment in response to sun exposure leading to freckles, sun spots, and age spots. The eye area is particularly vulnerable, with thin skin prone to expression lines or crow's feet as collagen and elastin production decreases. Furthermore, a decline in cellular turnover after 40 contributes to rougher, less radiant skin.
