Here's a customised SKINCARE ROUTINE for your 20s, 30s, 40s and 50s

THE SKINCARE ROUTINE YOU USED IN YOUR 20S ISN’T THE SAME THING YOU NEED as you move through your 30s, 40s or 50s. Not only is your skin constantly changing (inside and out), but also the amount of time and money you’re willing to spend on your face is forever in flux. Here’s how to build your best skincare routine.

20s When you’re living the #NoWorries life, it’s about minimalism. And having great skin is more about how you live your life overall. “Maintain a healthy lifestyle with adequate sleep and healthy eating whilst keeping stress levels down,” says Dr Julie Russak, a board-certified dermatologist. “The skin is at its peak in the 20s with strong collagen production and oodles of elastin, making it plump and firm. Your 20s are all about taking a preventative stance – good habits now mean better skin in the future. Here’s how to start.

An acne-fighting treatment: If you're dealing with breakouts, try a cleanser or spot treatment that has a boost of salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide. These active ingredients will help get rid of acne-causing bacteria and calm an oily, acne-prone complexion.

An SPF moisturiser: The foundation of any good skincare routine is SPF. “It’s your first line of defence against UV damage,” says Dr Joshua Zeichner, director of cosmetic and clinical research in dermatology at The Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City. “They prevent UV light from penetrating the skin and minimise free radical damage, which can cause premature ageing.” And we know that UV rays are the culprit behind 80% of the visible signs of ageing. Wearing SPF 30+ every day is also crucial to preventing skin cancer.
