CeraVe-focused skincare routine for mature skin
A routine for mature skin built around CeraVe products, complemented by other brands where they fit better, for complete care.
Cleansers and toners with glycerin, hyaluronic acid, and niacinamide help keep mature skin hydrated and plump, while sunscreens and serums with vitamin c, zinc oxide, and titanium dioxide protect against environmental damage and support firmness. Cleansing toners and enzyme powders with glycolic acid and salicylic acid smooth fine lines and wrinkles by gently encouraging cell renewal.
The morning routine prepares the skin for the day: it cleans off the night, hydrates, and protects, with sunscreen as its last step. The evening routine removes sunscreen, makeup, and the day's oil, then treats the skin while it rests and is away from the sun. The weekly routine takes the place of the evening routine once a week to add deeper steps like exfoliation and masks.
