Rhytidosis is a medical term that refers to the appearance of wrinkles on the skin, one of the main aesthetic concerns related to skin aging. This phenomenon, although natural, can be effectively addressed with an adequate routine that includes cleansing, specific treatment, and sun protection.
What causes rhytidosis?
Wrinkles appear due to multiple factors, including:
- Decrease in collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid over time.
- Photoaging due to unprotected sun exposure.
- Environmental pollution and free radicals.
- Lack of skin hydration and nutrition.
- Loss of facial muscle tone.
- Gesture factors like repetitive expressions.
- Lifestyle: diet, stress, rest, and harmful habits like smoking.
The importance of facial cleansing
Before addressing any anti-aging treatment, it is essential to prepare the skin correctly. Clean skin allows for greater absorption of active ingredients and prevents the accumulation of impurities that accelerate aging.
Double Cleansing Routine
A daily double cleanse helps remove makeup, sunscreen residue, pollution, and impurities. It consists of two steps:
Cleansing Oil
Effectively removes makeup, sunscreen, and residue, respecting the skin's balance. Enriched with avocado, cupuaçu butter, and Florasun® 90, it provides hydration and nutrition.
Cleansing Mousse
Cleans deeply without drying, with gentle exfoliating action and soothing ingredients such as oats, chamomile, and glycolic acid.
