Beauty tips for women over 50:

1. Don’t use heavy makeup and powders on dry skin.

2. Your skin may look matte and dry, if heavily powdered.

3. Just as the pigment in our hair turns it grey, the melanin in our skin changes too.

4. Don’t fall prey to the idea that you must have every new color that is in trend for a particular season.

5. Use a humidifier, moisturizing soaps and lotions.

6. Good nutrition is ideal for repairing damaged skin.

7. Drinking lots of water helps hydrate skin.

8. Use products with SPF 15 or higher, and both UVB and UVA protection.

Loss of youthful appearance, decreased skin tautness and the development of wrinkles are the telltale signs of aging skin. As we grow in age, the skin sags and becomes wrinkled. The skin ages for various reasons. Both intrinsic as well as environmental factors are responsible for skin aging. Increasing loss of flexibility due to degeneration of collagen and elastin within the epidermis naturally leads to aging skin. UVA and UVB light wavelengths from the sun also ‘contribute’ their bit in speeding up the ageing process of the skin.
