Once the skin aging process has begun, the structure of the skin begins to change. These changes have visible external impacts on the structure and appearance of the skin.
Due to a depletion of the natural elements that give the skin its firm and young appearance, wrinkles and fine lines may appear. The internal structure continues to weaken, which can also lead to loss of skin volume or loss of density . In addition, the skin can become more sensitive.
If it is necessary to avoid the habits of life mentioned previously, there are also many active ingredients which have demonstrated their effectiveness for the reduction of the visible signs of skin aging and the sensitivity of the skin.
Coenzyme Q10 is a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps cells convert nutrients into energy. Skin care enriched with coenzyme Q10 helps to "energize" cells by recharging their regenerative potential. Its antioxidant properties also neutralize free radicals caused by external environmental factors. These factors, which include UV and pollution, contribute to the decrease of collagen and elastin levels and thus to the appearance of the first signs of aging, such as wrinkles and fine lines.
The main function of
hyaluronic acid naturally present in the skin is to retain water: it is able to retain up to 30 times its molecular weight in water. With age, the skin's natural ability to produce hyaluronic acid decreases and wrinkles begin to form and widen. Various products, such as those belonging to the EUCERIN HYALURON-FILLER range, are enriched with hyaluronic acid and help soothe the sensation of dryness, a sign commonly found in sensitive mature skin.
Ceramides are naturally present in the upper layers of the skin. This type of lipid is part of the essential protective barrier of the skin, which in particular maintains the level of hydration and helps to block the penetration of irritating substances. Ceramide deficiency is not uncommon in people with dry skin. Their introduction into skin care products can help strengthen the barrier function, soothe skin dryness and prevent the sensation of irritation.
Sensitive skin must be given special attention: the care used must have a high tolerance and be non-irritating. The
EUCERIN SENSI-RIDES range has good skin tolerance, even on very sensitive skin. Enriched with coenzyme Q10, it also has anti-aging properties.
