Mature skin especially needs good cosmetics that contain active ingredients responsible for slowing down the aging process. In the world of skin care, new active ingredients appear and disappear at a rapid pace. There is also a large group of well-known names.

Below we have provided a list of active ingredients to look for in products for mature skin.

Ceramides

They are a natural component of the skin's lipids, forming an important binder that fills the intercellular gaps in the stratum corneum. Promote the proper restoration of the epidermis by the action of harmful external factors to restore the function of the skin's natural protective barrier. They effectively maintain the correct level of skin hydration, which directly reduces the appearance of wrinkles and improves skin firmness.

Collagen

It is one of the most important proteins of our skin. However, as we age, the body's ability to produce it decreases - this means that at some point more collagen cells die than are produced. Mature skin becomes dry and flabby, and wrinkles or furrows form on its surface. At the right age, it is worthwhile to ensure the presence of collagen in your diet and cosmetic products.

Glycolic acid

It is an active substance of natural origin. Its main action is to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, the proteins responsible for the elasticity and flexibility of the skin. In addition, it affects the increase in the thickness of the skin. 

Hyaluronic acid

It plays an important role in moisturizing the skin and maintaining its elasticity. Its water-binding properties help replenish water in the skin and prevent early signs of aging. For daily skin care, we recommend our Aqua Performance Line. These are professional home care products that contain SIGNAL10 stable hyaluronic acid.

Retinol

That is, vitamin A, is counted among the vitamins of youth, as its stimulating effect reduces skin changes, such as fine lines, wrinkles and hyperpigmentation, which appear with age. Thanks to it, the acid responsible for cell renewal is produced in the body.

Vitamin C

It is a very popular ingredient in skin care products. It is one of the more powerful antioxidants, or so-called "scavengers" of free radicals, and exhibits a number of properties that visibly improve the condition of the skin.
