Special Considerations for Mature or Ageing Skin

Dryness, decreased elasticity, decreased circulation, fine lines and wrinkles.

As we age the following happens to our skin:

• It becomes drier and loses its elasticity
• Its cell renewal (rejuvenating capacity) slows down

How fast and to what extent this happens depends on: your age, your heredity and your lifestyle.

Avoid heavy scrubbing, facial massage and over stretching the skin while applying make up or skincare products.

Avoid over cleansing as this can disturb the skin's protective mantle.

Beware of extreme weight loss which can leave skin wrinkled and saggy.

Give special attention to the eye area which is the first to betray signs of ageing. Use our Rosa Fina Revelation Intensive Eye Serum which smooths wrinkles and fine lines as well as tackling puffiness and dark lines.

Couperose is often found in mature skin, characterised by broken or distended capillaries that can be seen through the surface of the skin. These show as small red, spider web looking veins and give a reddish complexion usually to the cheeks. The Rosa Fina range is perfect for couperosed skin but use the Rosa Fina Secret Essence Face & Decolletage Oil in extreme cases or for a quick acting boost after a breakout.

Give special consideration to the lips. As we age lips become drier and prone to chapping. Lips should be protected and nourished. Use our Rosa Fina Smooch Penetrating Lip Salve (launching November '07) which are packed with advanced natural ingredients to really nourish and protect.
