In its major back-to-school feature, Santé Magazine gives you 10 questions to ask yourself (and, more importantly, the answers) before choosing your anti-ageing routine! An article produced with the help of two experts, including Dr Sandra Texier, founder of Maison Magnifisens.
1/ Cream or serum? Both! Because they « have different functions and complement each other ».
2/ Is night cream essential? The answer is a resounding « yes »! During the day, the skin is busy fighting UV rays and pollution. At night, it takes advantage of this respite to repair itself by activating its cell regeneration mechanisms.
3/ What is the best active ingredient for removing blemishes? Applying SPF (sun protection factor), using creams containing retinol, vitamins and acids, and undergoing « in-clinic peels ».
4/ What is the best anti-wrinkle ingredient? Vitamin C, retinol, and hyaluronic acid. « It all depends on the condition and needs of your skin. »
