Four Specific Skin Care Regimens For Mature Skin

By Dr. Brandith Irwin –

1. For mature skin that is oily and prone to acne:

Do you still have plenty of oil as you get older? And are acne breakouts still a problem for you?

Many of those products for teens and 20s are just too drying and irritating for skin that is a bit older. But those of you in your 40s and 50s still need some oil and acne control.

In addition, the effects of sun damage and a few lifestyle choices may be starting to show now in the form of wrinkles, some sagging, maybe brown spots or enlarged blood vessels.

This Kit gives you a great basic skin care regimen plus the products that will control oil, prevent more damage (sunscreens and antioxidants) and repair existing sun damage (Vitamin A cousin creams and cell growth factor serums). And, you may want to think about using lasers or sound waves to repair any sun damage.

2. For normal to oilier skin that is mature:

Are the effects of sun damage and lifestyle choices starting to show now in the form of wrinkles, some sagging, maybe brown spots or enlarged blood vessels?

I picked the products in this Kit to give a great basic skin care regimen that won’t aggravate oiliness, plus the products that will help to prevent more damage (sunscreens and antioxidants) and products to help repair existing damage (Vitamin A cousin creams).

3. For dry and mature skin:

You may need to keep your skin well-moisturized, but without clogging your pores. And without aggravating any breakouts you may still be getting.

The effects of sun damage and lifestyle choices might be starting to show now in the form of wrinkles, some sagging, maybe brown spots or enlarged blood vessels.

I put this Kit together to create a great basic skin care regimen that really adds moisture plus repair products that will help to prevent more damage (sunscreens and antioxidants) and products to help repair existing damage (Vitamin A cousin creams).

4. For very dry and mature skin

All of us have dryer skin as we get older, but are you dry, dry and dryer? Is it hard for your skin to hold onto moisture and hard to find products that really add to and keep the moisture in for more than a few hours?

And are the effects of sun damage and lifestyle choices starting to show now in the form of wrinkles, some sagging, maybe brown spots or enlarged blood vessels?

I picked the products in this Kit to give you a great basic skin care regimen that really adds moisture, plus repair products that will help to prevent more damage (sunscreens and antioxidants) and products to help repair existing damage (Vitamin A cousin creams and cell growth factor serums).
