So you are maturing, your skin doesn't have to look like it is...

By the age of 40 our skin becomes thicker and coarser. Wrinkles seem more pronounced and become more visible. Why does this happen?

Because oil and collagen production slow down, which reduces natural lubrication, and skin firmness. Therefore, deeper wrinkles and the loss of elasticity are common conditions of the skin pass the age of 40. So to help firm the skin by boosting collagen look for retinol-based creams or serums such asPlantogen's Light Moisture For Oily and Combination Skin, and anti-wrinkle formulas that target stubborn lines. Never forget what the sun can do to unprotected skin. Just because you are in your 40s doesn't mean you should stop using sun protection products. Choose a sunscreen with SPF15 or more.
