Cosmetologists claim that the age category of clients who approach them is 35+, and as a rule, these clients’ skin is already in a rather neglected and deplorable state. To prevent this from happening, the skin requires more active care after 25 years. At this age, all natural processes begin to slow down, the skin begins to lose moisture and elasticity. If the care is not suitable for your skin, and there is not enough moisture in the cells, be prepared for the following consequences: the skin tone will change, and not for the better, the sebaceous glands will produce more sebum than necessary, all small wounds or inflammations will take much longer to heal longer.
