Your 20s are the most stressful and confused years of your life, but they are also the best. You are carefree, naïve, young, and fabulous all in one! However, as you become older, you realize how crucial it is to look after your skin in your prime years so that your older self does not despise the younger you. So here I am again, with Part 2 of I WISH I KNEW! Sooner-Skincare Edition.

Invest in moisturizing products

Purchase moisturizing beauty products to keep the plump and supple skin you had in your 20s. Face masks, moisturizers, and moisturizing serums and mists are all beneficial to the skin. Keeping your skin hydrated is vitally essential for healthy, younger-looking skin in your older years.
Don’t pop the pimple

The unsightly red zit that popped overnight tempts you cruelly to burst it, but you must resist. Picking at a pimple can cause lasting markings and black stains on your face. Instead of being harsh on a pimple, use benzoyl peroxide or an anti-acne cream the next time it appears.
Get your beauty sleep!

When you’re in your 20s, you don’t have time for sleep since you have so many tasks and outstanding Netflix series. However, this is the worst thing you can do to yourself. Lack of sleep elevates cortisol levels in your skin, causing inflammation. Get at least 6 hours of sleep to achieve perfect and clean skin.
Start anti-aging now

How early is too early to begin incorporating anti-aging products into your skincare routine, you ask? We say now! It is recommended that you begin utilizing the appropriate anti-aging treatments for your skin as soon as you reach your mid-20s. Anti-aging solutions contain ingredients that protect you from early indications of aging and stimulate collagen, thereby improving skin suppleness. As they say, prevention is better than cure!
Conclusion
As we say goodbye to our twenties and embark on the next chapter of our life, we recognize the importance of the decisions we make today in defining our future selves. Our skin, the canvas onto which our experiences are engraved, requires our undivided attention and care. While youth may provide us with a false sense of invincibility, it is never too early to begin investing in the health and vitality of your skin. I WISH I KNEW! Sooner-Skincare Edition.
