This third decade of our life is when we start to see the first signs that we truly are entering our adult years. That’s when certain aspects star t showing up more, like puffiness under the eyes. Granted, some people have a genetic tendency to exhibit some of this puffiness, but overall its a sign of ageing. Meanwhile on the upper part of the eyes, there might be some excess skin and the eyebrow starts to droop a little bit. There might be a little fat accumulation in the neck and the skin might lose a bit of its youthful radiance.
Luckily, you can slow it all down by protecting yourself from further bombardment of sun damage. This is also a good time to incorporate a retinol product into your regime, which will boost your collagen reserves.
FORTIES
The picture staffs to get a bit more dire. Expect to see further loss of elasticity in the skin and the loss of collagen and tat in the face will cause the checks to start heading south. The nasolabial folds, a.k.a. the smile lines, will also become, more prominent. Any areas that experience a lot of movement, such as the eyes, will start to exhibit more wrinkling there. The infrastructure of the face might appeal to be “melting’ a bit, and the corners of the mouth will turn down, as if you were frowning. This is also when those annoying age spots start deepening in colour.
