How to Choose the Right Face Cream for Your Skin Type and Age

How to Choose the Right Face Cream for Your Skin Type and Age

Why is it important to start on time?

The earlier we begin using a quality cream suited to our skin type, the longer we will preserve its natural youthful, fresh, and healthy appearance. In the early years, the focus is on nourishment and hydration, and after age 30–35 we gradually add products that help prevent fine lines, wrinkles, and dark spots.

Skincare up to age 30 – maintaining hydration

At this age, the skin is usually more elastic and recovers relatively quickly, but it is often exposed to:

  • stress
  • polluted city air
  • lack of sleep
  • poor diet

Our goals here are to:

  • maintain good hydration,
  • protect the skin from external aggressors,
  • avoid overloading it with heavy, “suffocating” cosmetics.

Light nourishing or day creams are suitable, as well as gel-creams, especially for combination and oily skin. An example would be lightweight hydrating gel-cream formulas that provide freshness without weighing the skin down.

Between ages 30 and 40 – time for a day and night cream

After 30, the needs of the skin change. We start noticing the first fine lines, the skin may become drier, and stress and lack of sleep become more visible. At this stage, using both a day and a night cream becomes essential:

Day cream – has a lighter texture and a supportive function.

  • Hydrates throughout the day.
  • Creates a protective “shield” against external factors like cold, wind, and pollution.
  • Some formulas may also include UV protection (as with some MITVANA creams).

Night cream – richer and more concentrated.

  • Contains more nourishing and restorative ingredients.
  • Should be applied to well-cleansed skin so it can “work” throughout the night.
  • A suitable example is a restorative night face cream that supports regeneration while we sleep.

After 40 – eye cream and anti-age care

As we age, the skin becomes thinner and loses elasticity and hydration more quickly. At this stage, it is highly recommended to add:

Eye cream – the delicate skin around the eyes is the first to show signs of fatigue and aging:

  • fine lines (“crow’s feet”),
  • dark circles,
  • puffiness.

Herbal-based eye creams gently care for this area by nourishing it and visibly refreshing the look.

Anti-wrinkle cream – targeted at:

  • smoothing fine lines,
  • improving elasticity,
  • deep nourishment.

Anti-age creams by Himalaya and MITVANA combine plant extracts and nourishing oils to support the skin’s natural regenerative processes.

Which face cream should we choose according to skin type?

Besides age, it’s important to consider skin type:

  • Oily and combination skin – Look for textures like gel-cream that hydrate without weighing the skin down. Products should be non-comedogenic to avoid clogging pores. Lightweight hydrating creams by Himalaya are created with this in mind – delivering freshness and balance.
  • Dry and sensitive skin – Needs richer, more nourishing formulas. The product should not contain aggressive ingredients or unnecessary irritants. Restorative night creams and nourishing day creams, especially herbal-based ones, are an excellent choice.
  • Skin with dark spots and uneven tone – Specialized creams and serums for dark spots come to the rescue, such as Dark Spot creams and turmeric serums for reducing pigmentation. Turmeric is well known in Ayurveda for its brightening and antioxidant properties and is often used to even skin tone and reduce pigmentation.

How to arrange your skincare routine?

Here is a simple, easy-to-follow routine:

Morning:

  • Cleanse with a suitable face wash.
  • Toner (optional).
  • Specialized product (dark spot serum / eye cream).
  • Day cream – depending on skin type (light, hydrating, anti-age, or with UV protection).

Evening:

  • Double cleansing (makeup removal + cleanser).
  • Toner.
  • Serum / eye cream.
  • Night cream – restorative, nourishing, or revitalizing.
