It’s no secret that each birthday has a different meaning after you hit your thirties. When we’re young we look forward to turning 16, 21, 25 and maybe even 30. But after that, let’s be honest, your skin starts to give your age away and ladies, we don’t love that. We start to see signs of aging usually through wrinkles, frown lines, dryness, sometimes adult acne and even pigmentation from sun exposure. Some women start to see this in their twenties but most of us really start to see the change as we enter our thirties.

This is also a time of major life changes — women are getting married, having children or taking on senior career jobs that put excess stress on our bodies that often show in our skin. How many times have you said “I wish I had more youthful skin” or “I had such great skin when I was in my twenties”? The reality is, the aging process is not stoppable so understanding what’s causing it and how to prevent it is critical in maintaining good skincare and getting that youthful glow at any age. Here are our tips:

1. Sun Damage. We all love sunny days but it does a number on our skin. The number one mistake most women make is not including sunscreen in their routine. After a moisturizer, don’t forget an SPF of 15 or greater. Don’t worry, the protection is still effective even after you put on your make-up.

2. Stress. Life seemed so much simpler when we were young. With age comes more responsibility — families, careers, mortgages and much, much, more. This often leads to less sleep and less time for self-care, directly impacting your skin. So remember to get more restful nights in, stay hydrated and take some time for yourself. Pro tip: schedule it in your calendar, you won’t regret that you did!

3. Free Radicals. Like rust to cars, free-radicals destroy our cells and speed up aging. Although hard to escape because it surrounds our everyday through the air we breathe, we can do things every day to help reduce our exposure to it. Be more conscious of the food you eat (invest in organic fruits and vegetables that do not contain pesticides and chemicals). Choose good behaviors to participate in (eliminate smoking, engage in exercise, watch what you’re eating).

4. Use only natural products on your skin. Trust us, it’s not worth the risk. Using chemicals you don’t understand will not give you the results you’re seeking. beU by Organo has developed products with that exact challenge in mind.
