Many believe life begins at 40. The forties mean you’ve lived long enough to know some stuff. For example, you’ve carved out your career, you’ve got an arsenal of anecdotes, and even your gut instinct is sharper than ever.
Likewise, the 40s are your facial aging tipping point as you start to approach menopause, in which you may notice the diminished overall thickness of skin, less elasticity, and increased dryness.
Skincare experts say that after the age of 30, the skin produces one percent less collagen, and so it starts to lose one teaspoon of fat in the face per year. So 40s is the best time to shift focus towards promoting collagen and elastin. These duo proteins keep your skin plump and hydrated.
Shirley says, “Women in their 40s require a simplistic, non-complicated skincare routine that complements their busy schedules.”
The fourth decade in your life calls for some hardcore skincare routines that help you enjoy supple, soft, and glowing skin.

Natural oils are essential for your skin as they keep it soft and plump. So it’s never a wise idea to strip your skin of its natural oils. Using a gentle, soothing, and cream-based cleanser gently cleanses any debris that might have accumulated overnight.
Loaded with plant goodness, SCO’s Olive and Castor Bean Cleansing Milk gently removes impurities without affecting your skin’s natural sebum balance leaving skin hydrated, cleansed, and nourished.

2. Vitamin C Serum for Your Skin
Including an antioxidant-rich serum in your beauty kit helps fight free radicals caused due to environmental aggressors. Go in for serums that contain collagen-boosting peptides. These peptides increase fibroblast activity and act as building blocks for new collagen formation.
SCO’s Vitamin C Elixir is a potent antioxidant that fights aging, pollution, and pigmentation. The antioxidant vitamin C helps in the collagen formation process that prevents premature aging restoring a smooth, youthful appearance to your skin.

3. Hydrating Serum for Your Skin
Hydrated skin looks more radiant and youthful. Hydrating serums enhance your skin hydration levels, improve skin’s moisture retention levels, and prevents it from drying out. Antioxidants in these serums prevent skin cell damage and increase skin elasticity making skin more supple and plump.
SCO’s Hydrating Serum contains Q 10 and Amaranth, making it more suitable for dry, mature, and thirsty skin. Coenzyme Q 10 energizes cells and prevents them from oxidative damage. Aging causes a drop in Q 10 levels. Supplementing it by external application improves the elasticity of the skin.
Likewise, Amaranth shines when it comes to skincare. It has a high squalene content and works to detoxify, hydrate, and improve the skin’s elasticity. It gets absorbed quickly into the deeper layers of skin and provides intense hydration without making the skin greasy.

Fountain of Youth Face Cream can be used as a night and day face cream and suits every skin type. Mix it with a hydrating serum or rose-hip oil and apply it morning or evening to your freshly cleaned face.

5. Best Exfoliator for Your Skin
Exfoliating is an essential step in mature skin care. It unclogs pores, sloughs off dead cells leaving skin glowing and fresh. Regular twice a week exfoliation of mature skin increases cell turnover preventing sallow appearance over time. Also, it stimulates circulation carrying more oxygen and nutrients to your skin resulting in a healthy glow.
SCO’s Illuminate Face Polish contains natural date seed powder that removes impurities and dead skin cells without irritation, revealing a glowing complexion.

6. The Best Age Confident Trick for Your Skin
Stimulating your skin with a gentle massage before you hop onto your bed increases oxygen flow to your cells and is anti-aging skin care in itself. Increased blood flow enhances collagen production and imparts a healthy natural glow to your face.

Apply a few drops of rosehip oil onto your fingers and massage gently on your face. Suitable for massaging both day and night along with Fountain of youth face cream.
7. Express yourself Eye Cream: Enhance Eye Beauty
Someone rightly said that eyes are the windows to your soul. During your 20s and 30s, your eyes look bright and attractive. Once you reach your 40s dark circles, eye bags, and the fine line under the eyes may become common. However, proper TLC to your eyes will bring back its attractiveness.
SCO’s Express Yourself Eye Cream effectively reduces dark circles, puffiness, and fine lines under the eyes. It’s a dual-action cream that contains Peruvian Herb, Hyaluronic Acid, and Q10, which relaxes facial muscles and reduces fine lines. Using circular movements, massage it around your eyes either morning or night.
