The primary focus should be on prevention. Establishing consistent habits like daily sunscreen use, gentle cleansing, and antioxidant protection helps prevent damage before it starts, preserving skin's youthful resilience.
Yes, gentle chemical exfoliation (like AHAs) 1-2 times a week can remove dead skin cells, promote renewal, and help your other products penetrate more effectively, but avoid over-exfoliating.
Gua sha tools can enhance lymphatic drainage, reduce fluid retention, and promote blood flow. Used with a facial oil, they may help define facial contours and temporarily minimize the appearance of fine lines, but results are cumulative and require regular use.
Apply sunscreen to your neck, chest, and hands every morning without fail. This simple step offers the strongest long-term defense against wrinkles and sun damage.
