The pharmacy helps in the struggle for young people
It is not necessary to prepare means for preserving and restoring the youth of the skin of the face, you can buy ointments or creams from the pharmacy:
- retinoic ointment;
- sulcoseryl ointment;
- anti-aging face cream (various brands).
Retinoic ointment is an excellent antibacterial agent for various skin defects: acne, rashes, redness, which appear stronger on the skin with age and take longer. Any means against defects should be specifically applied to them, this ointment is no exception. Clean and healthy skin looks much younger and more beautiful, so it is necessary to get rid of unpleasant manifestations.
Solcoseryl ointment - a drug for improving oxygen penetration into tissues. With age, the pores of the skin pass this gas into the epithelium worse, which gradually affects its condition: it becomes dry, flaky, the tissues lose their tone, they look sluggish. Solcoseryl is applied to the entire face with a thin layer, gently rubbing it into the face. Also, for people with sensitive skin, it is allowed to "dilute" the ointment with a nourishing or moisturizing cream.
Anti-aging cream is an equally popular and widely advertised remedy, which is credited with truly unimaginable effects: smoothing deep wrinkles, firming the skin, and so on. Almost all cosmetic companies produce a number of skin aging creams, promising a rejuvenating effect. But it should be understood that this is only part of the truth. Age-related face cosmetics can really smooth out small wrinkles or smooth out unpleasant blemishes, but no product can nourish the skin with collagen and cope with deep skin folds.
These creams nourish, replenish the supply of vitamins and minerals, but do not create any "magic". They can be used in conjunction with other procedures, and when choosing, you need to focus on the specified age.
General recommendations
It is not enough to smear something on the skin and hope for a miracle! You need to change your lifestyle:

The first and fourth groups contain the proteins and vitamins of group B necessary for the body, the second - antioxidant vitamin C, the third and last contain a lot of E, which is called the "vitamin of youth". You can also buy a vitamin and mineral complex for a certain age.
You need to sleep at least 8 hours, as all the defects of lack of sleep are visible on tired skin, and bags under the eyes in adult women disappear much longer than in young women.
Sports loads make the skin breathe, enrich it with oxygen, which makes the face fresher, smoothes mimic wrinkles and removes excess subcutaneous deposits.
It is also necessary to contact a beautician, because it is quite difficult to make a professional massage or therapy for yourself.
