Six Common Skin Problems Solved
For every little problem that skin brings as we age, there is a solution. Here are quick ways to nix at least six of the most common skin problems associated with aging.
PROBLEM: Large Pores
When pores become weighed down with dead skin and sebum, they get stretched and take on a dark and enlarged appearance.
SOLUTION: Removing cellular debris, dirt, and oil will minimize the appearance of pores to make skin appear smooth and healthy. Your skin care routine should include a refining and clarifying toner, plus an exfoliating agent to accelerate cell turnover.
RECOMMENDED:
A refining, clarifying, and exfoliating acid trio of mandelic, lactic, and salicylic that’s balanced by healing zinc peptides and niacinamide.
PROBLEM: Dull Skin
As we age, cell turnover slows leading to a buildup of dead skin cells. Additionally, skin tends to lose moisture more rapidly. The combination of sluggish cell regeneration and loss of moisture will make skin appear heavy and dull.
SOLUTION: Exfoliate. Exfoliate. Exfoliate. Incorporate acids like mandelic, glycolic, or salicylic into your routine to slough off dead skin cells and get skin glowing again.
RECOMMENDED:
Mandelic Acid 3-in-1 Exfoliating Cleanser
A rejuvenating blend of mandelic acid, green tea extract, kiwi extract, grape seed oil and honey in a skin- and eco-friendly scrub. Stimulates cell renewal, refines pores while controlling acne-causing bacteria and brightening and balancing skin tone.
Level two in Vivant’s vitamin A therapy, this brightening regenerist combines the muscle of vitamin A with a transformative cocktail of AHAs including lactic acid, kojic acid, and glycolic acid, plus nourishing niacinamide for knockout results. Best for skin already acclimated to vitamin A therapy.
PROBLEM: Fine Lines & Wrinkles
Photodamage, the breakdown of collagen, and increasingly sluggish cell turnover are the recipe for fine lines and wrinkles.
SOLUTION: Accelerate cell turnover with acids and vitamin A to reduce cellular debris that can make lines appear deeper. Boost collagen production and thicken the dermis to plump skin surface and fill in fine lines. Vitamin A, peptides, vitamin C (essential to the synthesis of collagen), niacinamide (ceramide & collagen booster) are top ingredients for this task.
RECOMMENDED:
Boost cellular metabolism, reduce fine lines, promote a more even skin tone, and clear blemishes, all while nourishing skin with anti-inflammatory and moisturizing ingredients including lactic acid and niacinamide.
A peptide-rich firming and lifting serum formulated to increase elasticity, decrease fine lines and wrinkles, and protect against future signs of aging. Also good for reducing redness.
Use this potent antioxidant vitamin C and E serum every morning to correct and prevent environmental damage and while aiding in the synthesis of collagen and elastin.
PROBLEM: Dark Spots
Often called age spots, these marks of pigmentation are caused by UV exposure over time, hormones, or as the result of injury to the skin.
SOLUTION: Exfoliation, antioxidants to correct and prevent UV damage, and brightening agents will fade discoloration and inhibit melanin synthesis. Mandelic acid for dark or sensitive skin tones, vitamin A, vitamin C, kojic acid, green tea extract, and hydroquinone are your best bets. Use a daily sunscreen to protect from further damage.
RECOMMENDED:
This dramatically different antioxidant, anti-bacterial, and natural brightening AHA formula accelerates cell renewal, minimizes fine lines, fights acne bacteria, and fades discoloration for a clearer, brighter, more youthful complexion.
This advanced formula for lifting excess pigment and promoting even tone contains melanin inhibitors and brighteners hydroquinone, kojic acid, vitamin A, antioxidant grape seed oil, and healing whole leaf aloe.
The perfect daily foundational moisturizer and UV protection in one. Light, non-comedogenic, fast-absorbing.
PROBLEM: Thinning Skin
Loss of collagen leads to thinning and sagging over time.
SOLUTION: Boost collagen and elastin production and generate cell renewal with serums containing peptides, vitamin A, vitamin C. To maximize the serum absorption, prep skin with a clarifying toner.
RECOMMENDED:
Prep and plump with this ultra-refining, ultra-nourishing formula that includes barrier-boosting niacinamide, which increases ceramide, fatty acid, and collagen production, plus antioxidant rosehip oil to protect against the environmental stressors that break down collagen.
A gentle rejuvenator that combines the transformative strength of Vitamin A with the added boost of peptides to increase collagen and elastin production. From thinning to winning.
PROBLEM: Dark Circles/Bags Under Eyes
The skin in the eye area is thinner and more delicate than the rest of your face and therefore more vulnerable to photodamage.
SOLUTION: Guard against photodamage with antioxidants and boost collagen production with peptides and vitamin A to plump, lift and firm.
RECOMMENDED:
This high-performance formula blends vitamin A, peptides, caffeine, and grape seed oil to boost cell metabolism and circulation for the ultimate lifting, firming, and brightening effect.
