A proper skin care routine can help hydrate your skin, reduce signs of aging, and improve your overall complexion.
Following three rules will help you get the most out of your routine, says Lisa Kavanagh, founder of Sphagnum De-Lux.
She advised not to use more than three products on your face in your anti-aging routine, as using too many products can cause inflammation and premature signs of aging.
The expert explained: “The rule of three is crucial when it comes to skincare, as using too many products at once can lead to chronic inflammation, which is a major trigger for premature skin ageing.”
Don’t forget to moisturize around your eyes

“This can result in the breakdown of collagen and elastin, which can lead to wrinkles and sagging skin.”
Collagen is produced naturally in the body and helps keep skin firm and youthful, but the body’s natural supply declines over time.
Supplements and skin care products can help slow this effect, but reviews of their effectiveness vary.
Lisa explained that overusing skincare products can speed up the breakdown of collagen, which can lead to obvious signs of ageing.
A good place to start your skincare routine is with a face wash, moisturizer, and sunscreen. Another expert tip for looking younger is to remember to apply skincare products around your eyes.
She continued: “The skin around the eyes is one of the thinnest on the body, so regular use of creams and serums is essential.”
“If you don’t take care of the skin around your eyes, it can lead to wrinkles, sagging skin, and dark circles.”
Lisa warned about common skin care mistakes that many people make every day that “prematurely age and damage the skin.”
