40 years old is a wonderful age, but from now on, women have to pay more attention to facial skin care: it loses firmness, dulls, small wrinkles appear, and signs of aging appear. Here are a few simple ways to extend youthfulness.

The natural aging process affects all women to a greater or lesser extent. First of all, age-related changes manifest themselves in the form of wrinkles on the face. It's worth noticing the first hints of wrinkles - and the imagination is already drawing their further development, and meanwhile the mood is falling rapidly.

Skin cells have the ability to self-regenerate, but this process slows down as we age. There are two main causes of age-related skin changes: genetically programmed physiological decline and lifestyle. If we can't influence the first one, the second one can be successfully corrected.

Modern methods of body rejuvenation slow down the aging process and eliminate the accompanying external defects. Regular professional skin care allows you to look a few years younger than your actual age.

Psoralea is a drought-tolerant herbaceous perennial plant endemic to Central Asia, which has pronounced photosensitizing properties.

How does my skin change when I turn 40?
The aging process begins at a fairly early age (just after puberty), but becomes noticeable after 35 years: the elasticity of the skin gradually decreases, small wrinkles appear. And after 40 we see that the problems get worse.
The skin becomes less elastic and flexible, looser.
Pores dilate and become more prominent.
So-called "pucker wrinkles" may appear around the lips (especially in people who smoke).
Wrinkles around the eyes may also become deeper and more prominent.
All of these signs can add up over the years, but they can appear almost simultaneously, giving you the feeling that your skin is aging in an instant. It's time to start a full anti-aging facial, which is what products for women over 40 are aimed at.
