According to CBS News, once you reach your 40s, the skin starts to thin out and you’ll experience a loss of collagen and elastin. Wrinkles and fine lines may appear and the skin can have a more fragile appearance after 40. With the use of skin care products, you can help keep your skin healthier and younger looking for years to come.

Neutrogena Healthy Skin Face Lotion with SPF 15

After you hit the age of 40, signs of sun damage, such as wrinkles, skin discoloration and burst blood vessels, are more likely to appear. Good Housekeeping Magazine recommends Neutrogena Healthy Skin Face Lotion to prevent further sun damage and reverse the effects of sun exposure. The lotion contains alpha hydroxyl acid to remove damaged skin, along with vitamin E and vitamin C as a skin protectant. Apply the lotion twice a day after cleansing the skin in place of your normal moisturizer.

L'Oreal Decrease Eye Cream

CBS News recommends this eye cream for the over-30 set to combat crow’s feet and eye wrinkles. The eye area is typically the first area that lines appear on the skin. The cream contains Boswelox, shea butter, beeswax and collagen, which is used to smooth out fine lines with use on a regular basis by plumping up the skin. Dab the eye cream in small amounts around the eye and then massage into the skin gently using your fingertips. Apply once a day.

Roc Retinol Correxion Deep Wrinkle Serum

This product was named as an affordable and effective treatment option for mature skin by the Skincare News website. The serum contains zinc, copper and magnesium and is intended to stimulate skin growth. Wash the skin before applying a generous amount of the cream to the face and neck area. Use on a daily basis.
