Q: When is the best time to start using anti-ageing cream?
A: Mid twenties or early thirties is the best time to start using anti-ageing products. According to experts, this is the age range when lifestyle, diet habits, stress & pollution tend to start affecting the health of your skin. Hence, it is important to re-evaluate your skin care routine at the age of 25, and have a morning & nighttime skin care routine of cleansing, toning, moisturizing & weekly skin exfoliation.
Q: Which is the best anti ageing cream in India?
A: For sure the Jaivique Deep Moisturizer. It contains bakuchiol, which is a natural alternative to retinol, a miracle anti-ageing ingredient known to reduce the appearance of wrinkles & fine lines on the skin by boosting the production of collagen. It has also been found to facilitate the production of new blood vessels in the skin, which makes it visibly more radiant. Cica, the main ingredient in the product, also known as centella asiatica or gotu kola, is the best treatment for hyperpigmentation, dark spots on face and collagen synthesis. Cica is also very soothing & healing, and reduces skin redness, inflammation & soothes sun damage.
Q: How to remove dark spots on face fast?
A: Getting rid of dark spots can take upto 6 to 12 months, and longer if it lies very deep into your skin. Dark spots mainly occur because of the overproduction of melanin, which is most commonly caused due to the healing of wounds or pimples/acne, hormonal imbalance, certain medication, sun exposure or ageing. Here are a few ways to lighten or remove dark spots on your face & body: Use sunscreen when indoors as well as outdoors - Sun damage is a leading cause of dark spots & hyperpigmentation. Choose a sunscreen cream that has a broad-spectrum SPF of 30 & above. Regula use of sunscreen will prevent further darkening & reverse damage to the skin caused by sun exposure. Check out the Jaivique Sun Safe SPF 45, a broad spectrum SPF with raspberries, carrot extract, shea butter and Vitamins A & C.
Use Vitamin C skincare products such as face gels - Vitamin C contains antioxidants that reverse effects of free-radical damage on the skin, which causes rapid ageing, hyperpigmentation & other skin disorders that diminish the appearance of your skin. Vitamin C also has a mild bleaching effect on the skin, due to which it lightens pigmentation, dark spots & other skin imperfections. Check out the Jaivique Hydrating Face Gel formulated with Vitamin C, hyaluronic acid & Sea Buckthorn. Makes your skin visibly brighter by clearing dark/brown spots & pigmentation, and makes skin firmer, younger & more hydrated.
Always cleanse your skin before applying face products - Cleansing is the most important step in a skin care routine for people of all age groups & all skin types. This is because removing the buildup of dirt, oil, grime & makeup from your skin is essential before applying anything new, to prevent breakouts & clogged pores. Also, ingredients in your skin care products are absorbed better by clean skin, which makes them way more effective.
Q: Can moisturizer cause acne?
A: The answer is yes & no! Yes, if you don't cleanse before moisturizing and just apply the product randomly on your face at any time of the day. If applied on a non-cleansed face, moisturizer can clog pores, thus resulting in acne & breakouts. On a cleansed face, the ingredients of the moisturizer get absorbed better, thus penetrating to the deepest layers of your skin. This enables them to work much more efficiently to provide relief from skin dryness, dehydration & reverse signs of ageing. No, if you cleanse before applying moisturizer, and if your moisturizer is non-comedogenic. Non-comedogenic products do not clog the pores of the skin, thus enabling it to breathe freely. So, while choosing a moisturizer, go for one that is suited to your skin type, and make sure that it is non-comedogenic. The Jaivique Deep Moisturizer formulated with Cica & Bakuchiol is the best moisturizer for face, as it is non-comedogenic and has anti-ageing, skin hydrating, nourishing & skin-healing properties.
