BY AGE, INGREDIENT OR PART OF THE FACE

It's never too early or too late to take care of your skin, and Jouviance can help you find the products that will benefit you. If you're not sure where to start, consider your age (whether you're 25 or 55, we've got tips for you), the active ingredients available (we explain everything you need to know about using retinol or antioxidants), or the area of the face you want to treat.

SKIN PROBLEMS:

It's never too early or too late to take care of your skin, and Jouviance can help you find the products that will benefit you. If you're not sure where to start, consider your age (whether you're 25 or 55, we've got tips for you), the active ingredients available (we explain everything you need to know about using retinol or antioxidants), or the area of the face you want to treat.

Action Plan:

Pay special attention to prevention by practicing good facial care habits. Use a cleanser in the morning and evening, apply a serum and moisturizer and use sunscreen EVERY DAY. If you notice blemishes, use a product containing salicylic acid or glycolic acid to exfoliate and target bacteria. Also, be sure to drink plenty of water, eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, and reduce stress to help your skin age as gracefully as possible.

SKIN PROBLEMS:

selon votre train de vie et votre génétique, les premiers signes du vieillissement, comme les ridules et les taches brunes, commencent à apparaître peu après la trentaine. La peau peut aussi devenir plus terne, car les cellules se renouvellent plus lentement, et une hyperpigmentation peut aussi apparaître.

Action Plan:

Remove dead skin and reveal a more radiant, even complexion by prioritizing exfoliation 2-3 times per week. You can start using an anti-aging cream containing retinol or peptides to smooth out early fine lines (especially around the eyes) and perhaps even a vitamin C serum to target hyperpigmentation. Continue to use Jouviance SPF 30 Lotion daily.

SKIN PROBLEMS:

When a woman reaches her 40s, she is likely to have more pronounced fine lines and wrinkles, especially around the eyes. Many women are also dealing with hormonal issues related to pre-menopause, which can affect the skin and cause dry skin, loss of firmness and hyperpigmentation. In some cases, this can also cause acne.

Action Plan:

If you're not already doing so, add a serum to your beauty routine that contains active ingredients that target your most important skin concerns, whether it's dry skin, fine lines, dark circles, hyperpigmentation or dull skin. It may also be time to boost your eye area by adding a serum specific to that area. Finish your routine with sun protection.

SKIN PROBLEMS:

A woman in her fifties will most often observe a degradation of collagen and elastin, the proteins that ensure the firmness and structure of the skin, as well as a loss of fat in the face causing sagging of the cheeks, loosening of the skin and a change in the texture of the skin of the neck. Her skin will also be more fragile due to menopause.

Action Plan:

Choose a firming neck and décolleté cream that smoothes wrinkles, plumps skin, nourishes and moisturizes. You can also combine several serums containing different active ingredients for a multiplied anti-aging effect, and replace your face cream with a richer formula if you have drier skin. Finally, apply your Jouviance SPF 30 Lotion.

SKIN PROBLEMS:

After the age of 60, the skin continues to age, but more rapidly than before. Dryness and sensitivity are often the major problems, along with uneven skin texture and pigment spots.

Action Plan:

Your skin is fragile, so use only gentle cleansers and treatments. Stock up on products with ceramides to protect your skin barrier and choose super-rich formulas to ensure proper hydration. Sun protection is still important, even in your 60s.

By Ingredient

WHEN AND HOW TO USE IT:

Add retinol to your beauty routine if you're looking for advanced anti-aging benefits like anti-wrinkle, improved elasticity and reduced hyperpigmentation. Apply your retinol product in the evening and wear Jouviance SPF 30 Lotion every day for total anti-aging protection.

Did you know?

To minimize the risk of irritation from the use of retinol, Jouviance uses an encapsulated, continuous release form that penetrates deep into the skin rather than remaining on the surface, thereby reducing sensitivity.

WHEN AND HOW TO USE IT:

look for skin care products that contain peptides if you want to boost your collagen and elastin production for firmer, smoother skin. They work even better when combined with retinol and hyaluronic acid, like in our Restructiv Retinol anti-aging cream.

Did you know?

Jouviance was the first brand in North America to use peptides in its 3-in-1 Rejuvenating Anti-Aging Cream in 2003.

WHEN AND HOW TO USE IT:

no matter what your age or skin condition, antioxidants are a must-have ingredient to add to your skincare routine. They protect cells from external and internal stressors, such as sun exposure, pollution and stress, and are found in many plants, fruits and vegetables. Eat, drink or topically apply your antioxidants.

Did you know?

Jouviance uses a wide range of antioxidants such as vitamin C, vitamin E, green tea, Kakadu plum (the fruit with the highest vitamin C content [fifty times that of an orange] and Indian gooseberry.

WHEN AND HOW TO USE IT:

Often used in exfoliants, creams and resurfacing masks, glycolic acid is ideal for removing dead skin cells to reveal clearer, brighter skin (fewer blemishes and dark spots), while minimizing fine lines and uneven skin texture. Depending on the concentration of the acid, you can use it every two or three days at night until your skin tolerates more frequent use or a higher concentration.

Did you know?

Glycolic acid is one of our favorite ingredients at Jouviance because it works wonders for skin of all ages and types (we've made sure it doesn't irritate even the most sensitive skin!). It also helps the skin better absorb other active ingredients.

WHEN AND HOW TO USE IT:

Choose a vitamin C facial product if you want to reduce pigmentation, brighten skin tone and prevent the appearance of new signs of aging. Vitamin C works even better when combined with vitamin E, so check the product label to see if both ingredients are present. Choose a concentration of 20%, the maximum the skin can absorb.

Did you know?

Vitamin C is an exceptional antioxidant, but it often gets a bad reputation because it is fragile and degrades in heat and light. Jouviance uses a new molecule called Et-VC, a pure form of vitamin C that is stable to light and heat and never loses its effectiveness.

By body part

HOW IT AGES:

Our face is subjected to all types of aggressions, from repetitive muscle movements when we smile, frown or squint to sun exposure and internal factors such as stress and poor diet. These conditions, in addition to our biological clock, degrade the quality of our skin over time. It sags and develops brown spots, wrinkles and fine lines.

WHY IT MATTERS:

rarely covered, our face expresses our emotions. It is also the part of the body that is exposed for the longest time to environmental factors and screens. When we take care of our skin, we gain confidence. That's why it's important to use a cleanser and apply a serum and moisturizer twice a day to maintain a healthy, youthful complexion. Sunscreen is also a daily must to avoid photoaging of the skin. Several times a week, targeted treatments such as masks can address specific problems.

HOW IT AGES:

The eye area is one of the first parts of the face to show signs of aging because the skin is particularly thin. Fat loss causes a hollowed appearance, and the breakdown of collagen and elastin over time reveals crow's feet, the fine lines that fan out from the corner of the eyes.

WHY IT MATTERS:

It is said that the eyes are the windows to the soul, so they look tired when surrounded by dark circles and wrinkles. It is therefore important to take care of this delicate area of the face in your twenties by using an advanced beauty routine to keep your eyes looking fresh and young for as long as possible.

HOW THEY AGE:

The skin of the neckline is extremely fragile and very vulnerable to UV rays that cause sun spots, dehydration and loss of elasticity over time. The skin of the neck is subject to repetitive muscle movements and, with the breakdown of collagen and elastin, horizontal wrinkles and vertical folds tend to form. For some people, the loss of definition results in the appearance of a double chin.

WHY IT MATTERS:

many women take diligent care of their face, but often neglect the sensitive skin on their neck and décolletage. These body parts need just as much attention, so use all the facial products on your neck and chest.

HOW THEY AGE:

Aside from the intrinsic aging that skin undergoes over the years, our hands are constantly exposed to the elements: cold, wind, UV rays, soap and water from frequent washing. Hands become dry and wrinkled, sun and age spots develop and veins become more visible as the skin thins.

WHY IT MATTERS:

Since few people use anti-aging products on anything other than their face, hands tend to reveal aging faster than other parts of the body! To slow down and reduce the signs of aging, use your face care routine on your hands - and don't forget the sunscreen.
