Skincare advice from women over 40

Everybody wants skin that is healthy, glowing and youthful no matter what their age. We asked five 40+ year old working women to spill their skincare secrets and let us in on their journey to achieving flawless skin even with a hectic schedule.

“Honestly, my skincare is kinda simple. I drink a ton of water, and exfoliate my skin about twice a week; my favorite right now is By Wishtrend Mandelic Acid 5% Prep Water. I also keep my skin hydrated with a good moisturizing cream like Klairs Freshly Juiced Vitamin E Mask. Also, I think the DIY mask that my aunt taught me helps me glow. It is a mix of besan (Chickpea flour), haldi (Turmeric powder) and milk that I try to apply at least once a week.” – Andrea Sangma, Architect.

“SUNSCREEN, SUNSCREEN & MORE SUNSCREEN! I cannot stress enough the importance of applying sunscreen every two hours – whether you are indoors or outdoors. The sunscreen I have been loving lately is the ISNTREE Hyaluronic Acid Watery Sun Gel SPF 50 PA++++. My advice to the younger generation is to always carry your sunscreen with you.” – Jenny Tungoe, Corporate employee.

“I use my Dear Klairs Freshly Juiced Vitamin Drop serum every night, and make sure my skin is super clean and glow-y before I go to bed. I feel it really helps my skin recover and rejuvenate after a long day. In the morning, I use Dear Klairs Freshly Juiced Vitamin E Mask for maximum hydration. I also try to work out in the morning to give me energy and weirdly enough I feel like it also helps my skin glow for the rest of the day.” – Aren Longkumer, Teacher.

“I have a pretty simple skincare routine. I don’t like to complicate and mess it up as it is my tried and true. I feel like a good cleanser is a must if you want to achieve clear and spotless skin. I have been using the Low pH Good Morning Gel Cleanser and I’m from Mugwort Essence religiously for a while now and I cannot seem to get enough of them. I think it suits everyone. If you are looking for products to add to your everyday skincare routine, get these!” – Lika, Florist.

“I am a person who loves experimenting with skincare. Lately, I have been loving the Dear Klair Midnight Blue cream for my extra sensitive skin! When I apply this, it takes me to a completely different dimension of relaxation and calmness. After a long day at work, it soothes my skin like no other. I honestly look forward to applying this cream. It is like a treat!” – Lily Patton, Sales Manager.
