The regeneration of a cell qualifies its ability to renew itself rapidly. Cell renewal becomes slower with age, leading to the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, as well as loss of radiance and firmness. By stimulating it daily with these five essential tips, we can strengthen skin regeneration and slow down the appearance of signs. aging or take action to eliminate them if they were already present.
Discover our five anti-aging moves for healthy, radiant skin.
1. Rigorous hydration
The key to radiant skin at any age? The right hydration. When the dermis lacks water, the skin's barrier function is impaired, as is epidermal renewal. The result is a lack of elasticity, a dull complexion, a feeling of discomfort and the appearance of fine lines of dehydration. "it's nothing like hydrating cells to allow them to regenerate more easily.

To meet our water needs, we consume a daily amount of at least 1.5 liter and apply a moisturizing treatment to the face and body morning and evening, summer and winter. Result: the skin acquires elasticity and softness, its appearance is smoother.
Beware, dehydrated skin is not necessarily dry. These tips are therefore valid for all skin types, even for oily skin.
2. Facial massages
To stimulate cell regeneration, we work for better blood circulation. To do this, there is nothing better than a good daily facial massage to lift the face and thus gain tone and elasticity.
There are a multitude of gestures adapted to each area of the face. We opt for the simplest, applying our treatments in order to combat gravity and optimize their effectiveness. The golden rule: avoid pushing the skin of the face down. In the morning and in the evening we gently smooth the skin from the neck to the forehead and from the center of the face to the top of the cheekbones. On the eye contour area, apply the targeted treatment by gently pressing and then smoothing, following the bone of the eye socket, from the outside towards the inside for an anti-aging gesture and from the inside towards the outside for a draining gesture. .

3. Regular scrubs
Another tip to regenerate the skin: the "exfoliation. The goal is to free the skin of all its dead cells and other waste products that" stagnate "on its surface and clog it, preventing it from breathing and causing a "premature oxidation. This is how fine lines and wrinkles are formed. Moreover, thanks to the micro-grains it contains, the exfoliating product also accelerates blood microcirculation and, consequently, cell regeneration.
For a scrub that gives excellent results, it is important to choose an exfoliant suitable for each part of the body. Since the skin of the face is finer and more sensitive than that of the arms, for example, we opt for a product with an ultra-soft texture and natural micro-granules that we apply gently. There are also grain-free exfoliating scrubs, which are less aggressive. The epidermis is thus cleaned of these small impurities that cause it to age and the complexion is brightened.
4. A restful sleep
Day and night, our skin is at work. If during the day it acts as a shield against external aggressions such as pollution or UV rays, during the night it activates cell regeneration and epidermal reinforcement. It has also been shown that it is in the early hours of the morning, around 1 or 2 at night, that the regenerative activity of the skin is at its maximum, tripling cell renewal compared to the afternoon hours.
Therefore, we try to have a healthy night routine and get enough sleep, with the preference of going to bed before 11 pm to get up without difficulty and look rested.
5. Focus on the right ingredients
Foods rich in vitamin C are extremely beneficial for enhanced cell regeneration. By stimulating the synthesis of collagen and strongly fighting free radicals, they allow our skin to gain elasticity and vitality, avoiding the formation of fine lines.
We therefore choose a diet rich in citrus fruits, kiwis, peppers, cereals or Brussels sprouts to have radiant skin.
By following these tips, our skin with the signs of aging will regain its initial vitality.
