The Best Anti-Aging Regimen for 50s: Everything You Need to Know

By Blissy Editors 6 mins

As you reach your 50s and beyond, you will likely notice many changes to your skin, hair, and your overall appearance. Thankfully, you can slow down your rate of aging by following these 7 tips.

Some signs of aging cannot be avoided. Others can be improved with the right anti-aging regimen. Here are 7 ways you can slow down the aging process and love the skin you're in!

1. Wear at Least SPF 30 Sunscreen Daily No Matter Your Skin Tone

Wearing the right SPF sunscreen protection is important regardless of skin tone. This creates a skin barrier that keeps mature skin from being harmed by the sun's rays.

Protect your skin from the sun to keep skin firm

UVA and UVB rays from the sun can cause free radical damage which speeds up the aging process by interfering with your skin's ability to produce collagen. Collagen synthesis is essential for skin elasticity and wrinkle prevention.

SPF to help prevent skin cancer

Not only does wearing sunscreen religiously as part of your skincare routine reduce visible signs of aging and sun damage, it also provides protection against carcinoma and melanoma (skin cancer). When choosing a sunscreen, look for a broad-spectrum variety. If you have sensitive skin, look for paraben-free formulas.

What SPF should you choose?

Your skin tone will determine what level of SPF you should choose. For example, if you have fair skin, freckles, and moles, you are at a greater risk for skin damage. Therefore, you will want to wear 30 or 50 SPF daily. A good general rule of thumb though is to select a broad-spectrum sun protection of at least SPF 30 as this works best for most people.

2. Make Cleanser Routine

You likely already know it's important to clean skin regularly as part of a best anti-aging regimen for 50s. However, it's important to use the right type of cleanser once you reach 50 to restore that youthful glow. Aim for non-irritating cleanser that is mild, as it should never irritate the skin.

Skin becomes more sensitive after 50

You want to select products that are gentle, gentle, gentle in your anti-aging skincare routine. Your skin's texture and overall feel of your skin after 50 years of age is more sensitive. You also want to avoid fragrances, dyes, and formaldehyde. Aim for non-comedogenic formulas.

Avoid dull skin

Gently cleansing your skin, without harsh chemicals will help you counteract the natural tendency of aging to dull skin. Cell turnover slows down naturally as you age, so that is why you will notice a reduction in your natural glow. Skin will also become thinner and less resilient.

To maintain your skin's natural barrier, choose a mild cream cleanser or any cleanser you prefer as long as it's gentle! Exfoliation can still be done occasionally to remove dead skin cells. But for your daily cleanser, keep gentleness in mind above all.

3. Make Eye Cream a Regular Part of Your Day

As you reach your 50s, you will also notice that the skin around your eyes is thinner and more sensitive. Thin skin leads to fine lines. Therefore, eye cream to target fine lines should become part of your daily skincare routine.

Look for healthy ingredients

Look for anti-aging cream for the eye area that features vitamin E, vitamin B1, and hyaluronic acid. This will work to sooth and hydrate sensitive skin, helping smooth fine lines and restore mature skin. It will also help you counteract those dreaded dark circles and reduce puffiness.

Finding the right eye cream for your daily routine can be more than just a great way to fight the signs of aging. It also makes a good base for your eye makeup and can help this delicate skin retain moisture.

What else can treat the eye area besides cream?

Alongside eye cream, you can also try other methods of reducing puffiness like silk eye masks and other products designed to help address this common problem. This is an example of some of the best natural anti-aging skin care products you can incorporate.

4. Make Anti-Aging Moisturizer Part of Your Routine

If there is one golden rule when it comes to aging beautifully, it's to ensure that your anti-aging skincare routine includes a great deal of moisturizing elements.

As youthful looking skin gives way to a duller skin texture beginning in your 30s and 40s, the levels of natural hyaluronic acid levels begins to decrease. This causes deep wrinkles and fine lines to become more noticeable. This effect may be less pronounced if you have oily skin.

Look for hyaluronic acid in your moisturizer

Thankfully, you can address the loss of hyaluronic acid by applying moisturizing cream with hyaluronic acid. When you apply hyaluronic acid, you help retain cell moisture and replenish the skin barrier.

Also look for products that contain retinol. This ingredient will speed up the process of collagen production and cell turnover, helping regenerate surface cells. This brightens skin and helps you achieve a more even complexion with your mature skin.

5. Incorporate Serums

You will find most serums come in small bottles and only require a small amount to treat your entire face. Serums are either oil or water-based liquids designed to deliver high concentrations of active ingredients with anti-aging benefits.

You can choose a serum that you add to your skin on its own or one that is made with another product. For example, you can opt for a combination of primer and serum. When choosing a serum, aim for one with vitamin E and topical vitamin A. Vitamin A, also known as retinol, helps stimulate collagen production and helps reduce fine lines and irregular pigmentation.

6. Make Helpful Lifestyle Changes

In addition to adopting an anti-aging skincare routine with various anti-aging skincare products, you can also fight skin aging by protecting your skin's barrier with specific lifestyle changes.

Sleep on a silk pillowcase and use a silk eye mask

Sleeping on a Blissy Silk Pillowcase can reduce fine lines and wrinkles by preventing excess pull on the skin during sleep. Sleeping on silk is one easy way to combat premature aging.

Other products like silk eye masks can work alongside beauty products to give you better results.

Make sure you're drinking enough water

It's also important to stay hydrated, especially as you age. Your skin barrier depends on hydration to flush away toxins and carry the nutrients your body needs to your skin cells.

So make sure you are drinking the recommended amount of water as part of the best anti-aging regimen for 50s.

Wear protective clothing

One of the best natural anti-aging skin care methods can simply be wearing protective clothing, a hat, and sunglasses. This will help protect your skin from damage when in the sun.

7. Laser Resurfacing Treatments

If you want to go a bit further fighting the aging process, you can try laser resurfacing treatments. These treatments reduce fine lines and wrinkles, address skin irregularities for all skin types, and counteract the appearance of scars.

Put simply, this treatment will effectively remove superficial skin layers and stimulate new collagen production. Most people will recover from this procedure within 3 weeks. Some take as little as 5 days to recover.

Love Your Skin, No Matter What!

No matter what, we believe you should love the skin you're in. And that involves taking care of it.

It's up to you how much time and money you want to spend on your skincare routine. We hope this information has helped you to feel prepared as you move into your 50s and begin dealing with mature skin.

One of the easiest, best anti-aging regimen for 50s involves natural anti-aging skincare products like Blissy Silk Pillowcases. So if you're not sure where to start, start with Blissy!
