Clean skincare might be increasingly popular among younger generations, but it's actually an ideal approach for mature skin. We explain how skin changes with age to help you determine which clean skincare products will best support your skin and keep it glowing in this new phase of life.
Key Takeaways
Mature skin naturally undergoes certain changes, often becoming more fragile and dry than before.
Clean skincare focuses on a gentle, protective approach, prioritizing natural ingredients and skin health.
That makes clean skincare a great option for aging skin.
Look out for products that use natural, plant-based ingredients.
Also look for ingredients that have been shown to address specific age-related problems, like boosting collagen production and protecting against photoaging.
Metta Murdaya, co-founder of JUARA Skincare, says:
"Our skin naturally changes as we age, and so should our skincare regimen. Mature skin is often more fragile and sensitive, which makes clean beauty a great option for supporting it."
Everyone's skin is different. But there are some general principles that apply to most people's skin. One of those is that aging skin goes through various biological changes.
These changes are natural and, in some cases, unavoidable. To support skin as it ages, we may need to adjust our skincare routine.
Products that might have been perfect for our skin before may no longer be ideal. Our skin may need different things than before.
The point of these changes isn't to prevent the inevitable. Skin aging isn't a bad thing at all. Instead, the aim is to support our skin's health through every phase, so that we can feel and look fantastic no matter the changes happening under the surface.
Clean skincare is a great way to do just this. High-quality, natural products are often ideal choices for supporting and uplifting mature skin. Before we explore some great options, let's explain why that's the case.
How Aging Skin Changes
You likely know that our bodies change with age. Our skin is the body's largest organ, and it also goes through changes with age. Some of these changes are quite visible, while others are more subtle.
One classic change is with elasticity. Proteins like collagen and elastin are what help our skin stay firm and tight. Over time, elastin and collagen production naturally decrease. In turn, skin elasticity may decrease, causing wrinkles and sagging.
Similarly, our skin naturally produces an oil called sebum. As we age, this natural oil production also decreases. That's why older skin is more likely to be dry.
Older skin is also more likely to be fragile. In part, that's because it tends to become thinner with age. It also often takes longer to heal.
Another common sign of aging skin is dark spots. These spots can be natural, caused by changes to pigmented cells in the skin. They can also be a result of damage, often by UV rays.
As you age, "you really need to moisturize," notes dermatologist Dr. Elaine Kung, in conversation with JUARA co-founder Metta Murdaya. "Start using skin care with actives that have antioxidants."
What Is Clean Skincare?
Clean beauty, or clean skincare, is becoming increasingly popular. One survey found that more than two-thirds of consumers want skincare products made with clean ingredients.
That's especially true among younger generations. But clean skincare is actually a great option for mature skin.
In large part, that's because clean skincare focuses on gentleness and protection. Clean skincare involves avoiding artificial ingredients, like synthetic fragrances, which might irritate sensitive skin. Instead, it prioritizes natural ingredients.
Clean skincare also involves gentle treatments instead of harsh chemicals and techniques. It prioritizes protecting the skin, such as with regular moisturizing and sun protection.
As you might already see, the principles of clean skincare align very well with the needs of mature skin. Older skin is often more fragile and sensitive, so it often benefits from a gentle approach that prioritizes protection.
Face Cream
The natural changes we described mean that mature skin may benefit from products with blends of potent ingredients. Look out for formulations that contain ingredients with protective and anti-aging benefits.
One such ingredient is kombucha or fermented black tea. Black and green tea contain powerful antioxidants, which can help protect skin against environmental stressors.
Research suggests that black tea can help protect against premature aging and photoaging. That's the damage caused by UV radiation.
For example, a 2023 study found that black tea extract caused a number of changes in the skin that suggest it may impart "a significant anti-aging effect on the skin." Another study found that black tea extract significantly reduced redness caused by exposure to UVB rays.
Another potent ingredient is retinol or retinoids. Research has shown that retinoids can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by helping boost collagen production. Multiple studies have found that topical creams containing retinoids helped improve the appearance of wrinkles, pigmentation, and skin texture.
The only downside to retinol is that it's quite intense. People with sensitive or damaged skin might react badly to it. A great alternative is bio-retinol, which is formulated from plants and imparts the same potential benefits while being far more gentle.
JUARA's Miracle Tea Recovery Creme contains both kombucha and bio-retinol to act as a sort of reset button for your skin. It helps renew, replenish, and deeply hydrate skin to help you wake up with a smoother, firmer, more radiant complexion. This face cream is ideal for menopausal skin, or anyone who needs skin support through life's natural changes.
Eye Cream
The skin under our eyes is naturally thinner, even before the natural changes that come with age. That can make it more prone to the visual signs of aging, like lines and wrinkles. In fact, one study found that under-eye skin literally ages faster than other parts of the skin.
Supporting this part of the skin is therefore particularly important. The same principles as above apply. Look out for natural ingredients that support skin firmness and radiance.
One example is turmeric. It contains curcumin, a powerful antioxidant with anti-inflammatory properties. Research suggests turmeric can help reduce the appearance of dark spots, protect against damage, and support skin hydration.
JUARA's Miracle Tea Complete Eye Creme contains kombucha and turmeric to help depuff, color correct, and nourish the delicate skin around and under the eyes. It also contains five flavor berries, an ancient superfood that can help address the signs of aging before they appear.
Hand Cream
The hands are another place where aging skin quickly becomes noticeable. One study found that the skin on the back of the hands becomes far more pigmented and less elastic over time compared to facial skin.
JUARA's Coconut Illipe Hand and Nail Balm is an award-winning formulation designed to visibly improve the signs of aging by nourishing dry skin. Rich natural oils and butters make for a luxurious treatment that helps protect hands and nails from the elements while delivering crucial moisture.
Hyaluronic Acid for Hydration
As we mentioned, older skin is more likely to be dry. In fact, studies suggest that dry skin affects up to 99% of older people. That makes skin hydration even more important.
Hyaluronic acid is deeply connected to skin hydration. Our bodies naturally produce it, but with time, that production decreases. Research suggests that our skin's hyaluronic acid content is halved by the time we hit fifty.
Consider opting for skincare products that contain hyaluronic acid or similar compounds to help deliver hydration to mature skin.
JUARA's Triple Tea Antioxidant Essence contains 0.2% hyaluronic acid. At that concentration, it not only helps attract and retain hydration, but has healing properties, too.
Natural Oils for Skin Barrier Support
Another way to support your skin's hydration is with natural oils. They help lock in moisture.
Experts generally recommend applying a natural oil soon after washing, while your skin is still damp. That helps lock in as much hydration as possible.
Some natural oils also contain potent botanical actives that can help support skin health. Candlenut oil, for example, is rich in essential fatty acids. These acids make up a crucial part of our skin barrier, which needs extra support as we age.
JUARA's Candlenut Glow Body Oil blends candlenut oil with passion fruit oil, which is naturally high in vitamins to soothe, calm, and protect skin. It also contains moringa oleifera, which contains antioxidants to support the skin barrier.
Another great natural oil blend is JUARA's Radiance Vitality Oil. It contains candlenut, macadamia, avocado, and passion fruit oils. These are rich in nutrients, like vitamin E, and are mixed with stabilized vitamin C to visibly brighten skin tone.
Gentle Cleanser for Sensitive Skin
As we discussed, mature skin is often more fragile. Therefore, it may benefit from a more gentle cleansing process.
JUARA's Sensica Gentle Gel Cleanser is just that. It contains sodium hyaluronate, which is similar to hyaluronic acid and also helps the skin lock in and replenish moisture. This soothing and gentle cleanser also contains ceramides, fatty acids that help promote skin barrier function.
Conclusion
Clean skincare is a great way to support mature skin. Older skin often benefits from a more gentle, protective approach, which is exactly what clean skincare focuses on.
Look out for skincare products based on natural ingredients that will help protect and nourish older skin. JUARA's products are formulated using natural botanical ingredients.
