Experts reveal how to tailor your skincare routine depending on your 'ageing type'. By LARA OWEN
-
FOR years, anti-ageing advice has been handed out like a one-size-fits-all prescription.
But some faces develop a patchwork of fine lines long before their jawline budges, while others notice skin softening and sagging even if their forehead stays smooth.
Dermatologists and skincare experts increasingly describe this split as falling into two categories: "wrinkle-dominant" or "sagging-dominant."
A simple test is to look in the mirror without any trace of makeup or moisturiser. Study your skin's canvas. Imagine a line across the middle of your face. Are you looking older above the line, with lines on the forehead and eye contour, therefore more 'wrinkle-dominant'?
Or do you see more aging below the line, with deeper laughter lines and heavier jowls on the jaw line, 'sagging-dominant.
INGREDIENTS FOR WRINKLE-DOMINANT SKIN
Once you've figured out which camp you're in, it comes down to ingredients.
