Facial skin care after 25 years - rules, stages, advice from a cosmetologist
All women should look good and well-groomed, for this they go to beauty salons and cosmetologists, but there are those who do not have the opportunity to attend expensive procedures. Then there is only one way out, home care, but here, too, not everything is as simple as it might seem at first glance. Some women are firmly convinced that there is practically no need to take care of young skin, just wash your face, apply any cream and that’s it, you’re already a beauty. There is a small grain of truth in this, only that when the skin is still young it does not need such active care as for older skin. 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.

Basic advice from a cosmetologist on skin care after 25
Girls over 25 years old should significantly reconsider their usual care.
The first thing to do is to introduce moisturizing and nourishing cosmetics into it. They will take care of the skin and prevent moisture loss.
It is imperative to use sun protection as the sun's rays are not very good for our skin. They provoke the appearance of age spots and make the skin very dry.
Cosmetologists recommend introducing cosmetic oils into your care, or it can be cosmetic products containing them.
Let thermal water “settle” in your cosmetic bag; it perfectly moisturizes the skin and protects the skin from new inflammations or irritations.
Watch your facial expressions, as very active emotions can leave wrinkles even on young skin.
In addition to following the above recommendations from cosmetologists, you should also take care of your internal organs. Drink plenty of water, the daily norm that an adult should drink is 2 liters.
In order to properly care for your skin, you need to determine its type, for this you can use the following very simple method. 2 hours after applying the cream, carefully examine your face, so you can determine your skin type as accurately as possible.
What to focus on?
Each skin type has its own needs. But definitely facial care after 25 years means:
- cleansing;
- hydration;
- nutrition;
- UV protection.
You need to select cosmetics taking into account individual characteristics. For example, for oily types, a cream with a light texture is suitable. Those with dry skin should take care of additional nutrition. Therefore, the cream will have a denser consistency.
Rules for caring for combination skin after 25 years
If you do not properly care for combination skin, it can cause inflammation in the T-zone, as well as dry cheeks. In order for the skin to be in good condition and not have any problems, you must follow several rules:
1. In order to remove keratinized particles and other impurities in areas with high oil content, it is necessary to use scrubs. Let us remind you that it is not recommended to scrub very dry areas as this can seriously damage the skin.
2. Taking care of combination skin type requires three stages: cleansing, toning, moisturizing.
3. Give preference to cosmetics containing chamomile, sage, and calendula. They will help reduce the work of the sebaceous glands and eliminate inflammation on the skin. The Janssen Balancing Skin Complex regulating concentrate will do an excellent job of this task.
4. In summer, it is necessary to take more active care of the skin after 25. Because it is during this period that the sebaceous glands work more actively, and sweating also increases. It is necessary to cleanse the skin twice a day using special cleansers. Use scrubs, and also be sure to use cosmetics every day that will dry out all inflammation and remove redness.
What is important at 50+
The age of menopause in women, which is accompanied by changes in hormonal levels. Insufficient estrogen production leads to rapid aging of the dermis. Cells recover much more slowly, and the pH level changes. At this age, a woman should have at her disposal a whole arsenal of skincare products marked 50+ and with the following properties:
- hydration;
- cleansing;
- nutrition;
- tightening – lifting effect;
- protection;
- regeneration.
The help of a professional cosmetologist plays a huge role. At 50+, it is almost impossible to restore the contours and elasticity of the skin on your own. In this case, rejuvenation is carried out using contour plastic surgery, thread lifting, laser and injection cosmetology.
Care for dry skin after 25 years
This type of skin is quite common and is characterized by such signs as skin tightness, peeling, irritation, and premature aging. And with age, all this only gets worse, and without proper care it only gets worse; deep wrinkles begin to appear on the face, which are not so easy to get rid of.
To avoid such problems you need to:
1. Use cosmetics that do not contain alcohol, as this will help dry out the skin even more.
2. It is recommended to cleanse the skin only with milk; it is very gentle on the skin and cares for it.
3. Make beauty oils your friends and use moisturizing products twice a day.
4. Various types of masks also work great on dry skin; they moisturize the skin, nourish and soothe. For this occasion, our store offers the Janssen Immediate Calming Sos Mask.
Other procedures
Do not neglect such effective methods for improving the health of the skin, such as peelings and masks. After 25 years, masks must be applied 2-3 times a week. It is enough to return to light peeling once every 7-10 days. It is advisable to do a deep one once a month.
Masks
Face masks occupy a special place in the evening skin care ritual. Should I buy a ready-made mask or use natural products? This is a personal matter for every woman.
If you prefer a store-bought product, it must be of proper quality. If you decide to prepare the mixture yourself, your skin will be doubly grateful. Natural ingredients – a variety that is never exhausted.
There are many recipes. Remember, face masks are beneficial for all skin types. You just have to choose the appropriate composition. And the question of whether to do them shouldn’t even arise. No self-respecting woman would ignore such an effective, fast and affordable way to restore a healthy glow to the skin.
Peeling
Peeling can be done in the salon. The cosmetologist will select the necessary substances to remove dead cells. However, this task can be accomplished at home. Use special tools. Only in this case, again, you need to take into account the characteristics of the skin.
25 years is not the time to fight age-related changes. This is the period when you should take care of preventing early aging. Yes, the mechanism of fading has already started. Therefore, proper care is required using properly selected products. Plus a healthy lifestyle. It is within your power to make sure that old age bypasses you for as long as possible!
Care for problem skin after 25 years
Skin problems can arise at any age, and even if you have had a clean face all your life, after 25 there is a chance that problems will begin. What provokes their appearance is when the sebaceous glands work too actively, the skin becomes oily, a lot of impurities and bacteria settle on it, which begin to multiply, which entails the appearance of acne. To avoid this, you should wipe your face with an antibacterial agent throughout the day; a very important nuance is the absence of alcohol in the composition of this product. Proper care will help soothe the skin and minimize the appearance of new inflammations. Cosmetologists also recommend including a mattifying cream in your care, which should be alternated with a moisturizing one. Pay attention to the balancing cream with a tinting effect Janssen Tinted Balancing Cream, it will reduce shine and give the skin freshness and a healthy glow.
Necessary cosmetics
Here is an approximate list of cosmetics necessary for facial care after 25 years:
- Skin cleansing products: foam, gel, milk, tonic, lotion, micellar water, etc.;
- Creams: for application during the day, at night, as well as for the area around the eyes and sunscreen for use in summer;
- Additional products: serums to enhance the effect of the cream, masks to solve specific problems.
Important point. A 25-year-old woman should not forget about the area around her eyes. Regular cream is not suitable for application to such a sensitive area. In this place the skin is much thinner. To prevent the early appearance of crow's feet, make sure you have eye cream in your cosmetic bag.
You shouldn't get carried away with experimentation. There is a possibility of a negative reaction. Be careful with sensitive skin. Consider the possibility of individual intolerance. If you don't find the right product the first time, don't continue to use it. Try buying a product from another company. You will definitely find the best option. Healthy and glowing skin is an indicator of the right choice.
Care for normal skin after 25 years
If you have normal skin, this does not mean at all that it does not require any special care. After 25 years, there should be care, it will just be less intense than care for other types. And so you need:
1. Cleanse your skin properly, twice a day, using a cleanser designed for your age.
2. Be sure to use a cream after cleansing, let it be light, but nourishing and moisturizing for the skin.
3. At the toning stage, use an ice cube instead of tonic. Instead of water, you can use decoctions of various plants or green tea.
4. For this skin type, you do not need to use very oily creams. For night care, a light moisturizer or serum will be enough. For more active hydration, you can use cosmetic oil no more than once a week. At night, you can apply Janssen Aquatense Moisture Gel Aquaporine.
What causes skin to deteriorate? In addition to the natural aging process, the skin is exposed to the following factors leading to early aging:
- 1. Aggressive environmental influences;
- 2. Frequent stress at work and at home;
- 3. Poor nutrition, daily routine, lack of proper rest;
- 4. Bad habits;
- 5. Diseases.
And now that we know what not to do, let’s see what you need to do to look younger than your age.
