As we age, our skin begins to sag and wrinkles form. These signs are the result of normal cellular aging. However, this process can be accelerated by various factors: pollution, stress, or hormonal changes. Adopting appropriate skincare can delay skin aging and thus the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

What are the causes of skin sagging and wrinkles?
As we age, the production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid decreases. These are essential for the skin's tone and firmness. Additionally, skin cells take longer to regenerate and muscles begin to relax. Skin aging is a normal process, but it can be prematurely exacerbated for various reasons: hormonal changes, stress, pollution, or even dehydration.
The skin can also age faster due to oxidative stress. Oxidation is a normal process in cell function. It allows the creation of free radicals. However, when they are too numerous, free radicals are the source of oxidative stress. Skin sagging and the appearance of wrinkles are natural phenomena, but adopting appropriate care can fight against their premature appearance.
Which soap should be used to combat skin sagging, wrinkles, and fine lines?
To prevent premature skin aging, cleanse your skin to remove excess sebum and traces of pollution. Regularly hydrate it to aid in the restoration of the hydrolipidic film and nourish it to protect it from external aggressions. The skincare routine should always begin with cleansing. This essential step allows for the removal of accumulated sebum and particles that settle on the skin. Once cleansed, the skin can then receive the various treatments you provide it with (moisturizing cream, serum, or oils).
Our moisturizing soap with palmarosa is recommended for combating skin aging. It is enriched with organic palmarosa essential oil, known to promote skin regeneration. It also contains exotic verbena essential oil, which has sanitizing and purifying properties. Cold saponified, our palmarosa soap contains 8% superfat and gently cleanses the skin.
Why choose a cold-process soap?
The cold saponification process is a traditional method that allows the preservation of the qualities of the vegetable oils and essential oils used. Indeed, the ingredients are not heated during the manufacturing process, thus maintaining their properties. We use 100% natural origin ingredients in the formulation of our soaps. Essential oils of palmarosa, exotic verbena, or even eucalyptus globulus are just a few examples of the ingredients we use. Our soaps also contain vegetable oils from olive, coconut, or even shea butter, which are nourishing and soothing.
Take care of your skin to protect it from external aggressions and delay the appearance of signs of skin aging. Cleanse your skin daily to prepare it to receive the moisturizing or soothing treatments you use. Regularly perform exfoliation to remove dead skin cells and promote cellular regeneration.
