Collection: Ageing Skin

Skin ageing is a complex process involving both intrinsic (chronological) and extrinsic (environmental) factors. As we age, collagen and elastin production decreases significantly, leading to structural changes in the skin.

What Happens During Ageing:
•    Collagen production decreases by 1% per year after age 25
•    Elastin fibers break down, causing loss of elasticity
•    Cell turnover slows, leading to dull appearance
•    Hyaluronic acid levels decrease, reducing hydration
•    Skin becomes thinner and more fragile

Types of Ageing Signs:
•    Fine lines: First appear around eyes and mouth
•    Deep wrinkles: Form from repeated muscle movements
•    Loss of firmness: Skin becomes less tight and lifted
•    Volume loss: Particularly noticeable in cheeks and temples
•    Texture changes: Roughness and enlarged pores

Leaf & Lab Solutions:

AgeLab represents advanced anti-ageing science with clinically-proven peptides. Hexapeptide-11 is a synthetic peptide that stimulates collagen production by up to 40%, while dipalmitoyl hydroxyproline promotes both collagen production and skin repair at the cellular level.

The dual hyaluronic acid system addresses hydration at multiple levels - high molecular weight for immediate surface plumping and low molecular weight for deep tissue hydration. Ginkgo biloba extract improves microcirculation, delivering nutrients more effectively to skin cells.

Bakuchiol provides retinol-like benefits without irritation, while berry seed oils offer antioxidant protection 50x more potent than Vitamin E. This comprehensive approach addresses all aspects of skin ageing.
