Step 1: Apply a Vitamin C Serum
Vitamin c is a powerful and effective antioxidant, that helps protect against environmental damage to the skin, and has visible anti-ageing benefits, including reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and brightening the complexion.
If you have balanced or dry skin with visible signs of ageing, try C E Ferulic; if you have balanced or oily skin with concerns of oiliness, blemishes and texture, choose Silymarin CF; and if you have balanced or oily skin with discoloration and uneven tone, try Phloretin CF.

Step 2: Apply a Targeted Serum
A serum is an effective way of targeting your specific skincare concerns and improving visible signs of ageing. To visibly lift 3 key facial areas - jawline, cheeks and forehead - for a firmer, more lifted look, discover SkinCeuticals A.G.E. Interrupter Ultra Serum. This skin firming serum helps visibly reduce signs of ageing impacted by collagen decline and glycation, including the appearance of wrinkles, and laxity.
Overall skin tone, ageing signs and dryness can be improved with a hyaluronic acid serum such as SkinCeuticals H.A Intensifier Multi-Glycan. Concerns such as dark spots and discolouration can also be treated with a dedicated product like SkinCeuticals Discolouration Defense Serum. To help reduce the appearance of blemishes while also improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, use SkinCeuticals Blemish + Age Defense.
Step 3: Apply a Hydrating Eye Treatment
The delicate eye area is one of the first places many people notice ageing signs such as fine lines and wrinkles. But as this area is sensitive, it requires special attention with a product such as SkinCeuticals A.G.E. Advanced Eye. This cream offers targeted treatment for crow’s feet and dark circles with a concentrated combination of 7.15% ProxylaneTM, a wild fruit flavonoid concentrate, 0.2% glycyrrhetinic acid and 3% Matrix 3000 Peptide. It also contains 0.5% caffeine and Inclusive Optical Effects (0.5% + 0.3% Boron Nitride) to disperse light and minimise the appearance of dark circles across all skin tones.
Step 4: Restore Hydration with Moisturiser
Hydration is an integral step in an anti-ageing skincare routine as it helps to maintain a healthy skin barrier and good moisture levels which can become compromised with age. That’s why a moisturiser such as SkinCeuticals Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2 is integral to a skincare regime as it addresses this natural loss of lipids and collagen in mature skin. It does this with a formula containing a maximised concentration of lipids including 2% pure ceramides, 4% natural cholesterol, and 2% fatty acids. As such, this cream has been proven to improve the visible appearance of skin smoothness, pores, and overall radiance.
Alternatively, for more advanced signs of ageing, including deeper wrinkles, we recommend A.G.E Interrupter Advanced. Thanks to an optimal selection and concentration of active ingredients, such as wild fruit flavonoids, glycyrrhizic acid, niacinamide and proxylane, this formula fights signs of ageing, such as wrinkles, helps restore firmness, and plump the skin for a smoothed appearance.
Step 5: Protect the Skin with Sunscreen
Most premature ageing signs are caused by environmental aggressors such as UV radiation, so a broad-spectrum sunscreen should be a non-negotiable in your morning skincare routine. Dermatologists recommend applying sunscreen as the final step in your skincare routine and re-applying it throughout the day - especially when UV levels are high. Head to the SkinCeuticals suncare section to discover high-quality options that prevent premature ageing while working with your individual skin type and concerns.
Your Evening Routine
In the evening, you should repeat the same routine save for a few small adjustments.
Switch your daytime SPF for a nighttime treatment
Retinol: As skin cell turnover starts to slow as we age, retinol helps to stimulate it. This helps the skin to create new skin cells while improving collagen production. SkinCeuticals Retinol Cream 0.3 for ageing skin is a concentrated facial cream with pure retinol that improves the appearance of visible signs of ageing and pores while minimising the appearance of blemishes. As it makes the skin more photosensitive, however, it should always be applied in the evening and the skin should be protected with broad-spectrum sunscreen the next morning.
Nighttime antioxidant: SkinCeuticals Resveratrol B E is a concentrated nighttime antioxidant serum that combines a concentration of pure, stable resveratrol, synergistically enhanced with baicalin and pure vitamin E for anti-ageing antioxidant performance. This helps to neutralise free radicals, strengthens skin’s natural antioxidant defences, and reveals visible radiance and firmness.
Glycolic acid: Another alternative for helping to rejuvenate the skin overnight is the SkinCeuticals Glycolic 10 Renew Overnight treatment. It features a synergistic combination of 10% glycolic free acid value, 2% Phytic acid to promote skin clarity and brightness alongside a triple action-soothing complex of botanicals and oils to help support the skin barrier.
Switch your daytime moisturiser for a nourishing night cream
Night-time is when your skin repairs itself, so if you use a light, daytime moisturiser, it is advised to switch this to something richer in the evening.
