From the age of 30, the barrier function begins to progressively decrease, the cells begin to slow down their oxygen exchange . As a result, the skin has less and less water retention capacity and loses elasticity. This is until reaching 40 , which is when changes in the skin begin to be evident.
Now, when we talk about mature skin , there is no exact correlation with a certain age. It depends on various exogenous factors that constantly affect the skin such as sun exposure, climate changes and skin pigmentation . How we have taken care of our skin throughout our lives also has a lot of influence. For this reason, some people can have mature skin at 35, others at 40 or even 50.
The most important aging factor is sun exposure , directly responsible for prematurely aged skin, especially in light-skinned people.

HOW DO I KNOW IF MY SKIN IS MATURE?
Regardless of age, mature skin is damaged skin with a great need for hydration . In addition, it presents a clear lack of vitality due to multiple factors that can range from sun exposure without adequate measures to unbalanced diets, through bad habits such as tobacco or alcohol consumption and even stress.
A key situation is the arrival of premenopause and menopause , where the brutal drop in estrogen levels translates into important changes in the skin, since they influence its moisture content.
CHARACTERISTICS OF MATURE SKIN
Mature skin presents wrinkles, spots, loss of volume, firmness and luminosity that are manifested by:
- General dehydration of the skin related to lower production of sebum and hyaluronic acid.
- Marked wrinkles and loss of tone due to decreased collagen and elastin production that cause tissue relaxation.
- Brown spots due to failures in the production of melanin, a situation that is aggravated by damage caused by sun exposure.
- Thinner and more translucent skin as fewer epidermal cells form as cell size also decreases.
COSMETIC ROUTINE FOR MATURE SKIN
The sooner you start taking care of your skin, the more effectively you will combat skin aging. We recommend that you preferably use natural products that are more respectful of your skin and its balance.

Cleansing and exfoliation:
