Facial skincare : the best time to start

There are 4 fundamental steps to properly taking care of your skin :

• Cleansing

• Moisturizing

• Protecting

• Stimulating natural processes

Each of these steps requires the use of specific skincare products, which we’ll take a look at in this article.

Cleansing : the pillar of a good skincare routine

Our skin is constantly exposed to the harmful effects of pollution. Particulates, exhaust fumes, and all the other kinds of smoke and fumes that occur in cities build up and prevent the skin from breathing properly. These toxic molecules can also spark allergies or skin reactions. Makeup (even of high quality) will also impair the skin’s ability to function properly.

This is why we always advise our customers to thoroughly cleanse their skin several times a day before applying our facial skincare products. This is an essential step, as it eliminates accumulated impurities and ensures that the skin is well-prepared to receive our anti-aging serums and creams.

Scrubs, exfoliators, makeup remover lotions, cleansing gels — what’s the difference ?

Cleansing the skin is a vital first step in any skincare routine. To help you figure out which of our products best suit your needs and to learn more about how and when to use them, read our advice in this article.

Caring for your skin with a moisturizing treatment strengthens the epidermal barrier. This enables the skin to most effectively protect itself against external aggressors and moisture evaporation. It also helps the skin to keep its plumpness and suppleness, meaning that the onset of fine lines can be delayed to the maximum.

Our HYDRA-HYAL range of facial skincare products and moisturizing creams is rich in hyaluronic acid and was specifically designed to lock in moisture for all skin types, regardless of the user’s age.

Besides our biological clock, UV radiation from the sun is the primary contributor to skin aging. It alters the structure of the skin, resulting in deep wrinkles and hyperpigmentation. Because clothing rarely actually covers the head, it’s crucial to use facial skincare products that protect the skin from the sun.

To slow skin aging, FILORGA’s experts recommend regular application of sun protection like our UV-DEFENCE cream. It’s also worthwhile to supply the skin with antioxidants that, in addition to providing protection from UV radiation, help prevent the effects of oxidative stress. With this in mind, we recommend the HYDRA-AOX [5] serum, which combines 5 potent antioxidants to provide protection from the effects of UV radiation and other external aggressors.

Not only does the skin need to be protected and moisturized, but it also needs to be stimulated. This is why it’s important to supply it with rejuvenating ingredients that help boost collagen and elastin synthesis in the cells.

FILORGA’s answer: NCEF [New Cellular Encapsulated Factors], our laboratories’ core formula, contains a unique blend of active ingredients typically found in revitalizing injections in aesthetic medicine and supplies the nutrients essential to the proper functioning of cells.
