Before we start, let’s make it clear:
ANTI-AGING products
are different from
ANTI-WRINKLE products.
What is the difference?
Their mode of action!
Multifunctional, an anti-aging cream acts globally on all the causes of skin aging. In addition to smoothing wrinkles and fine lines, an anti-aging treatment will fight against the loss of skin firmness, restore radiance, reduce dark spots, and even the complexion. Anti-aging active ingredients, naturally present in citrus fruits or grapes, also help moisturize the skin and eliminate dead cells.
On the other hand, the anti-wrinkle treatment will, as its name suggests, have a targeted action on wrinkles and fine lines, acting on emerging wrinkles or already installed on the face. Today, anti-wrinkle care tends to disappear, in favor of anti-aging care that is more complete, thus offering a skin that appears younger in its entirety. Anti-wrinkle creams are usually composed of antioxidants, in the form of vitamins or trace elements, which help fight free radicals and damage caused by pollution. Retinol is also present in many creams, it stimulates skin renewal and smoothes fine lines.
ANTI-AGING RITUAL: WHEN TO BEGIN?
With age, skin experiences a natural aging process as we are programmed for it.
From the age of 25, our immune system defends itself less and free radicals damage the structure of the skin. In addition to these consequences related to time, our face and neck are largely exposed to other environmental factors: pollution, sun (UVA, UVB…), but also tobacco, alcohol, lack of sleep… All these elements, associated with a hormonal decrease due to age, are responsible for the aging of the skin.
You can and should start using anti-aging products AS EARLY AS YOUR 20s!
This is the age when these products will be the most productive. Sounds crazy?
Think about it. Isn’t it always better to prevent something than to cure it?
Of course it is!
Prevention simply stops something from happening, whereas a cure is trying to undo the damage that has already been done. Such is the case with anti-aging. If you can prevent your skin from showing the signs of aging, not only will you keep your youthful look in your older years, but should wrinkles and sagging skin appear, your skin will better respond to treatment.
If you begin using anti-aging products in your 20s, you are essentially training your skin how to behave.
The daily application of hyaluronic acid cream will train your skin to stay hydrated, and when you use retinol creams, your skin will thrive on the daily dose of vitamins.
The bottom line is, the earlier you start, the better off you will be.
Skin tone matters!
Those with fairer skin, who also burn easily in the sun, will generally age faster than those with more natural pigment in their skin. “ You can’t change your genes but you can protect them by using SPF, having a healthy diet and getting enough sleep.”
Neck and decollete
The neck is also delicate skin that is often neglected until signs of damage have already set in. Extend the use of your face cream or serum, to your neck and decollete.
Beware from your cigarette’s effects !
Studies show that smoking hampers the body’s ability to make collagen and also leads to premature wrinkling. Our advice to you is to protect your skin with HYDRATING CREAM WITH COLLAGEN AND ELASTIN because it improves synthesis of collagen, keeps skin hydrated and prevents early sign of aging.
ANTI-AGING ROAD MAP
25
From the age of 25, you can start putting on anti-aging creams. The goal is preventive because the interest of these creams is mainly to supplement the benefits of a healthy lifestyle.
EXTREME JEUNESSE SMOOTHING AND RADIANCE-ENHANCING CREAM-SERUM is particularly adapted for this age, and combines the best effects of a cream and a serum.
Cellular Renewal ritual with EGF is also a good alternative for anti-aging process. It improves skin appearance and reduces Skin Aging Process. The cellular activitors re-launch elastin and collagen production, providing a new skin thickness, elasticity and a glowing complexion.
30
At 30, the first fine lines appear, but remain on the surface because they are mainly expression wrinkles or dehydration. Anti-oxidant serums and creams combined with an anti-wrinkle mask twice a month are ideal for prevention at this age. ONAPHYLINE PREMIUM Anti-Ageing Day Cream is a complete antiaging and antioxydant range with a night and day cream as well as eye contour. Moreover, its ingredients are 90% of natural origin, making it very safe among sensitive skins.
Firming ritual with Spilanthol is a great start also in your 30s. It protects the youth of the skin, since it acts deeply on the expression wrinkles, which begin to dig deep at this age. With a Botox-like effect, it will extend the firmness and radiance of your 20s.
35
At the age of 35, when wrinkles settle, the radiance of the face fades and the elasticity of the skin relaxes. The anti-wrinkle can be started around this age. It will act on all the signs of aging to offer the appearance of an overall younger skin.
We recommend DNA Detox Vitaminé – Anti-Ageing radiance concentrate for its detoxifying effect and its richness in vitamins C and E.
Alpha KM range reduces wrinkles and provides tone and radiance with its Alpha Hydroxy-Acids (AHA) and Bioceramides VI formula. It is an excellent make-up base and is available for dry, normal and oily skin.

Reducing wrinkles naturally is something I’m very interested in. I’ve heard argan oil can help. Has anyone used it with good results, or do you have other natural treatments to recommend?
Thank you for your comment. Native Oil from Onagrine can be of interest to you. With a combination of pure essential oils (argan oil as well), it is suitable for both skin and hair with an optimized moisturizing nourishing effect.
