On mature skin, we add a lot of moisture: humectants (glycerine, urea, hyaluronic acid) then emollients or occlusives to seal in the water.

However, it is irritating and should be introduced gradually, always with sun protection in the morning. Vitamin C and peptides are excellent supplements.<\/div>\n      <\/details>\n      <details class=\"bd-faq-item\">\n        <summary>Can retinol and vitamin C be combined?<\/summary>\n        <div class=\"bd-faq-answer\">Yes, but separate them: vitamin C in the morning for its antioxidant action, retinol in the evening. Introduce them one after the other, never at the same time at first, to limit the risk of irritation.<\/div>\n      <\/details>\n      <details class=\"bd-faq-item\">\n        <summary>Can retinol and copper peptide be combined?<\/summary>\n        <div class=\"bd-faq-answer\">No. Copper peptide cannot be combined with retinol, vitamin C or exfoliating acids. Use one or the other, for example, alternating every other evening.<\/div>\n      <\/details>\n      <details class=\"bd-faq-item\">\n        <summary>At what age should you start an anti-wrinkle routine?<\/summary>\n        <div class=\"bd-faq-answer\">Prevention begins early with sun protection and moisturizing, starting in your twenties. Active ingredients such as retinol can be gradually introduced from the age of 25 to 30, according to the tolerance and needs of each skin type.<\/div>\n      <\/details>\n      <details class=\"bd-faq-item\">\n        <summary>Are expensive anti-wrinkle creams more effective?<\/summary>\n        <div class=\"bd-faq-answer\">Not necessarily. Efficacy depends on the active ingredients and their concentration, not on price. Well-formulated, affordable products (retinol, vitamin C, peptides) offer comparable benefits to much more expensive references.<\/div>\n      <\/details>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class=\"bd-section\">\n  <div class=\"bd-wrap\">\n    <span class=\"bd-section-label\">Further information<\/span>\n    <h2>Our guides <em>anti-wrinkle<\/em> detailed<\/h2>\n    <div class=\"bd-hub-grid\">\n      <a class=\"bd-hub-card\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/facial-care\/anti-wrinkle-care\/anti-wrinkle-cream\/\"><span class=\"bd-hub-card-tag\">Comparison<\/span><h3>Best anti-wrinkle creams<\/h3><span class=\"bd-hub-card-arrow\">Read the guide \u2192<\/span><\/a>\n      <a class=\"bd-hub-card\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/facial-care\/anti-wrinkle-care\/anti-wrinkle-serum\/\"><span class=\"bd-hub-card-tag\">Comparison<\/span><h3>Best anti-wrinkle serums<\/h3><span class=\"bd-hub-card-arrow\">Read the guide \u2192<\/span><\/a>\n      <a class=\"bd-hub-card\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/facial-care\/anti-wrinkle-care\/oily-skin\/\"><span class=\"bd-hub-card-tag\">Comparison<\/span><h3>Anti-wrinkle for oily skin<\/h3><span class=\"bd-hub-card-arrow\">Read the guide \u2192<\/span><\/a>\n      <a class=\"bd-hub-card\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/facial-care\/anti-wrinkle-care\/anti-wrinkle-cream-30\/\"><span class=\"bd-hub-card-tag\">By age<\/span><h3>Anti-wrinkle cream at 30<\/h3><span class=\"bd-hub-card-arrow\">Read the guide \u2192<\/span><\/a>\n      <a class=\"bd-hub-card\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/facial-care\/anti-wrinkle-care\/anti-wrinkle-cream-40\/\"><span class=\"bd-hub-card-tag\">By age<\/span><h3>Anti-wrinkle cream at 40<\/h3><span class=\"bd-hub-card-arrow\">Read the guide \u2192<\/span><\/a>\n      <a class=\"bd-hub-card\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/facial-care\/anti-wrinkle-care\/anti-wrinkle-cream-50\/\"><span class=\"bd-hub-card-tag\">By age<\/span><h3>Anti-wrinkle cream for 50-year-olds<\/h3><span class=\"bd-hub-card-arrow\">Read the guide \u2192<\/span><\/a>\n      <a class=\"bd-hub-card\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/facial-care\/anti-wrinkle-care\/anti-wrinkle-cream-60\/\"><span class=\"bd-hub-card-tag\">By age<\/span><h3>Anti-wrinkle cream at 60<\/h3><span class=\"bd-hub-card-arrow\">Read the guide \u2192<\/span><\/a>\n      <a class=\"bd-hub-card\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/facial-care\/anti-aging-care\/\"><span class=\"bd-hub-card-tag\">Guide<\/span><h3>Anti-aging care<\/h3><span class=\"bd-hub-card-arrow\">Read the guide \u2192<\/span><\/a>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<div class=\"bd-sig\">\n  <strong>Dr Sylvain David<\/strong>\n  <span>Plastic and aesthetic surgeon - Founder of BeautyDecoded<\/span>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"bd-disclaimer\">\n  <p>Information for educational purposes only.
