Mature Skin
Mature skin (from around the age of 50) shows more pronounced lines — crow's feet, nasolabial folds (the lines running from the nose to the corners of the mouth) and the forehead line, since these areas move most with our expressions. The skin is also marked by a loss of radiance, moisture, elasticity and firmness, and as it becomes thinner, dark circles are not unusual. Age spots and slackening skin are further characteristics.
In this category you will find targeted anti-ageing care that helps support firmer, smoother and more radiant-looking skin.

What causes mature skin?
Mature skin is simply the result of the skin's natural ageing process. As the years go by, skin cells renew more slowly and the production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid slows down, leaving the skin looser, more lined and less firm. A lack of moisture and oils also gives the skin an older appearance. Years of sun damage and external influences such as stress and an unhealthy lifestyle can accelerate skin ageing further, as can (urban) air pollution, which — like sunlight — harms the skin through free radicals.
Which ingredients work well for mature skin?
- Squalane - Strengthens the skin's protective barrier, helps counter the look of lines, hydrates and leaves the skin supple and soft.
- Hyaluronic acid - Hydrates intensively and helps reduce the visible appearance of lines.
- Vitamin C - Supports collagen, helps protect against free radicals and brightens the complexion.
- Rosehip oil - Helps support the skin's elasticity.
Which skincare routine helps mature skin?
Use mild cleansing products and avoid formulas containing alcohol, colourants, fragrance and preservatives, as these can irritate the skin. Before your day and night cream, apply an anti-ageing serum, ideally with hyaluronic acid. In winter it is wise to use a richer cream, for example with urea and panthenol. Apply a daily sun protection product with vitamin E, and make sure your skincare delivers hydration, for instance with squalane. At least once a week, treat the whole body with hydrating, nourishing care. Plant oils such as coconut, almond or olive oil provide the skin with the fats and vitamins it needs.

Mature skin (from the age of 50) shows pronounced wrinkles. Think of crow's feet, nasolabial folds (from the nose to the corners of the mouth) and forehead lines. This is mainly because you move your forehead the most through facial expressions. The skin also loses its radiance, moisture, elasticity and firmness. Other characteristics are dark circles, age spots and sagging skin.
What causes mature skin?
Mature skin is caused by the skin's natural ageing process. As you get older, skin cells renew more slowly and the production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid slows down. The result? Looser, more wrinkled and less firm skin. In addition, a lack of moisture and lipids gives the skin an older appearance. Years of UV damage and external influences such as stress and an unhealthy lifestyle can also accelerate skin ageing.
