Skin aging is a very complex process that is influenced by both internal factors (your DNA ) and external factors (such as the sun, pollution, weather conditions, smoking...). Every skin is unique and the same can be said of the aging process. Although, there are certain changes or aging signs that occur frequently within a certain age range. Therefore, it can be useful to switch your skin care routine over the years. In this blog, we list the most important skincare tips for your 20's.
Keep in mind that this is NOT a fixed guideline ! For example, certain tips are described for 20's, but remain useful for other age categories as well. So be sure to check out the other blogs: 30's , 40's and 50's . Moreover, everyone ages in a different way and one tip will be more applicable to you than the other

Different skincare for different ages
Should you change your skincare routine when you grow older? The answer is, yes, to a certain extent - watch this skin tip to find out more and get some insights by Dr. Barbara Geusens.
Skincare in your 20's
Skin aging symptoms are not yet visible in this age group. So, for this age category it is especially important to work preventively on the skin.
SUNSCREEN: SPF30-50
Protection from sun damage is important for every age group. But young people sometimes underestimate the damage caused by the sun as signs of skin aging are not yet visible during your 20's. The damage will only become visible many years later. Therefore it is recommended to protect your skin on a daily basis. Select products that contain a sun protection factor, such as a SPF moisturizer, a mineral powder foundation with SPF, a SPF lip balm... During high sun exposure, for example on a holiday, it is important to repeatedly apply a higher sun factor (SPF 30-50) to your skin. It is true that your SPF protection will wear off after a few hours.Therefore, whether you're using sunscreen or SPF day cream, it's important that you keep applying it when you stay in the sun for a longer period of time.
MOISTURIZE YOUR SKIN
If you want your skin to have a healthy and youthful glow, it is important to moisturize it. Moisturizing helps to improve skin elasticity and also reduces the appearance of (early) wrinkles. Daily use of a moisturizer supports the structure and natural function of your skin barrier. A well-formed skin barrier ensures that your skin is protected and stays young.
To hydrate, means balancing the moisture in your skin. Your skin can be hydrated in 3 ways, depending on the ingredients. At Nomige, we prefer humectants (glycerin, urea, hyaluronic acid…) or skin identical lipids (ceramides, cholesterol, phospholipids…) to keep the skin hydrated. You can read more about it in the previous blog.
Nomige's main tip: Use a hydrating day cream that also contains a light sun protection factor (SPF). This way, your skin is hydrated and protected on a daily basis.
3 TIPS IMPORTANT FOR EVERY AGE
THE BEST TIP FOR EVERY AGE: personalized products
In this blog we described some important skincare tips for during your 20's. Although there are some general tips, it is impossible to give a guideline that applies to everyone . Everyone's skin 'behaves' in a different way. It is therefore not a surprise that "tailor-made" skin care is the future within the beauty world!
Nomige is an innovative and tailor-made skincare brand that examines your specific needs by taking into account both your DNA and your lifestyle . It's important to first find out what your risks or problems are and what's causing them. This way we can formulate products that are specifically tailored to your needs.
Nomige offers an Exclusive package consisting of 4 personalized products. Three of them are based on your DNA profile, where we examine genes involved in the skin aging process. The fourth product, the day cream, is formulated based on your lifestyle. On the basis of a questionnaire, we examine which lifestyle factors play a role in the condition of your skin. For example, do you suffer from impurities and pimples during your 20's? Or do you live in a busy city with a lot of pollution? Then we will add ingredients to your day cream that act specifically on this.
