As women enter their 50s, skin care may shift towards addressing signs of ageing like deep wrinkles and sun spots.
Additional concerns like crepey texture and loss of volume can equally become common challenges, but all these concerns have effective solutions.
Fifty-one-year-old Lila has virtually no wrinkles and she credits her skin care regimen for keeping her complexion smooth.
“I am 51 and how do I keep my glowing skin? Three products,” the skin care enthusiast explained on her TikTok channel. “I’ve been using these products since I was about 20.”

Hyaluronic acid
"The first one is hyaluronic acid, I use the Ordinary, we know that it’s great for keeping the moisture barrier intact and keeping the skin hydrated," Lila told her viewers.
Hyaluronic has long received attention in the skin care market for its unmatched ability to boost skin moisture.
The naturally occurring substance plays a crucial role in wound healing, helping to reduce the appearance of scarring.
What’s more, many users report positive changes in the texture of their skin within the first week of use.
Peptides
"Number two is peptides, I love peptides because I get instant results with them, as well as long-term benefits. It plumps and reduces fine lines," said Lila.
Peptides are small protein fragments found in various skin care products that may serve a purpose in reducing inflammation and evening out skin tone.
Their role in diminishing the appearance of wrinkles has also garnered a lot of attention from dermatologists.
Although collagen is often touted for its skin benefits, the molecule itself is too large to be absorbed through the skin.
This is why many people opt for collagen-rich bone broth or supplements. Peptides, however, can penetrate the skin, allowing the body to use them effectively even when applied topically.
