9 Anti-Aging Skincare Products That Help You Age Gracefully

Ah, aging! The one thing that's inevitable in our lives, yet we struggle so much to keep it at bay. Half the year is almost over, so if you ask us, it's pretty much a good time to re-think your skincare routine and upgrade (or yes, downgrade) wherever needed. Too much serum? Too little exfoliation? Too little hydration? Whatever it is, an inventory on your beauty cabinet is always ideal for healthy skin!

Patchology Breakout Box 3-in-1 Acne Treatment Kit

Acne can strike at any age. This pesky skin problem isn't reserved for adolescent teens, as hormone imbalances, environmental pollution, bad diet, free radicals, and stress cause flare ups at any point in our lives. Arm yourself from dark spots that are caused by acne with a handy anti-acne strategy wherever you may be, like this complete kit.

Dermalogica AGE Smart SkinPerfect Primer SPF 30

We all know how bad UV rays are for our skin. It's time we invest in base beauty products that employ help from SPF, like this primer with a potent peptide that helps support skin firmness as Broad Spectrum sunscreens help shield against sun damage triggered by UV light. Add to that, this product smoothens fine lines, brightens and primes for flawless skin, and preps for makeup application! At Rustan's

 

The Inkey List Retinol

You've probably heard of the word Retinol before, but aren't entirely sure what it does. Retinol, as it happens, is one of the hero ingredients in a lot of anti-aging products. Its purpose is mainly for regenerating skin cells, supporting the repair process, so that new cells reach the surface faster, resulting in brightening and smoothing skin. It reverses the visible signs of skin aging and improves skin's overall clarity. Apply a pea-sized amount to your fingers, gently tap onto skin in the evening after cleansing before your other serums or night cream. At Beauty Bar

 

L'Occitane Mineral Moisture Mask

We don't know about you, but we don't like skin care products that leave our skin sticky and weighed down. Our weather isn't conducive for heavy creams anyway, so finding lighter options that do a good job as well is key. We love this new find—an ultra hydrating mask made with mineral-rich Réotier water, hyaluronic acid, and water-binding molecules that intensely quenches our skin's thirst! What's more is that it softens the appearance of enlarged pores with its frosted, non-oily texture! At Greenbelt 5
