26 Oct Take Care of Your Neck and Décolletage
The neck and décolletage are often left out of our facial skincare routine, but they also need attention. Over time, collagen production decreases and the skin can lose firmness and elasticity. In addition, prolonged exposure to the sun speeds up the appearance of wrinkles, sagging and dark spots in these areas, which are often quite exposed.
To maintain a healthier appearance, start by gently cleansing the skin without scrubbing it. Then apply a serum with hyaluronic acid, which is ideal for providing hydration and helping the skin look smoother and plumper. During the day, you can add vitamin C and, above all, a broad-spectrum sunscreen, preferably SPF 30 or higher. If you are going to be outdoors, remember to reapply it. At night, retinoids can help improve skin texture and reduce the appearance of fine lines. It is best to start by using them a few times a week and gradually increase their use according to how well your skin tolerates them. You can also gradually introduce products containing glycolic or lactic acid to support cell renewal. Peptides are another option that can complement your skincare routine and help support the appearance of firmer skin.
Consistency is key, but there is no need to use all the active ingredients at the same time. If you have sensitive skin, persistent dark spots or are considering more intensive treatments, consult a dermatologist first.
