Anti-aging creams are formulated to address age-related skin changes such as fine lines, wrinkles, discoloration, and loss of firmness. Anti-aging moisturizer and other wrinkle creams can help improve the appearance of existing visible signs of aging.

There are several anti-aging face cream ingredients that have been extensively studied and proven to be effective. Retinol is a common ingredient in wrinkle creams because it promotes cell turnover to improve the look of fine lines, wrinkles, and discoloration.

An anti-aging face cream with a combination of wild fruit flavonoids, Proxylane™, and glycyrrhetinic acid (such as SkinCeuticals A.G.E. Interrupter Advanced) can visibly improve the look of fine lines, wrinkles, and skin texture while restoring the feel of skin plumpness and firmness. Niacinamide is a beneficial anti-aging moisturizer ingredient since it helps reduce the look of skin discoloration while strengthening the skin’s moisture barrier.

Facial anti-aging creams do work, and SkinCeuticals has performed several clinical studies that show our wrinkle creams deliver on their claims. Our anti-aging face cream formulas contain high concentrations of ingredients that provide significant improvement in the healthy appearance of skin.

It is often recommended to start incorporating anti-wrinkle products into your skincare routine in your mid-to-late 20s or early 30s. That being said, it’s never too early to start using anti-aging creams, especially if you're starting to see early signs of fine lines or discoloration. Incorporating an anti-aging face cream into your daily skincare routine can help reduce signs of premature skin aging.

Facial anti-aging moisturizer and wrinkle creams should be applied to the entire face while taking care to avoid the eye area. SkinCeuticals also offers advanced anti-aging creams formulated specifically for delicate skin around the eyes and lips, as well as the neck and body.

Using an anti-aging moisturizer or wrinkle creams at an earlier age won't harm the skin, but some formulations may be too rich for younger skin that may be oilier. Start by using the SkinCeuticals skincare routine builder. A SkinCeuticals skincare professional can also help create a customized routine that includes the appropriate anti-aging creams for your age and skin type.

SkinCeuticals has formulated several facial anti-aging creams that are suitable for sensitive skin, including A.G.E. Interrupter Advanced, Metacell Renewal B3, and Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2. Our Retinol 0.3 anti-aging face cream features the lowest concentration of retinol we offer, making it more tolerable for sensitive skin.

All of these anti-aging creams are designed to work synergistically with other SkinCeuticals products to restore the appearance of healthy, youthful-looking skin. A SkinCeuticals skincare professional can recommend a comprehensive routine that includes the ideal anti-aging moisturizer for your unique skin type and concerns.

The terms “wrinkle creams” and “anti-aging creams” are often used interchangeably. Although most anti-aging creams are formulated to address wrinkles, some facial anti-aging creams target additional age-related skin changes such as loss of firmness and discoloration.

Anti-aging creams that effectively target wrinkles typically contain ingredients that support skin renewal, hydration, and collagen synthesis. These include retinoids (such as retinol), peptides, antioxidants like vitamin C, and moisture-binding agents like hyaluronic acid. These ingredients work by boosting cell turnover, improving skin texture, and enhancing elasticity, which collectively help minimize the appearance of fine lines and deeper wrinkles over time.

The A.G.E. Interrupter Advanced anti-wrinkle face cream has been shown to improve the appearance of lines and deep wrinkles after 12 weeks.

A skincare routine for aging skin should prioritize hydration, protection, and renewal. Use a gentle cleanser, followed by an antioxidant serum like vitamin C to protect against environmental damage. Apply a moisturizer with ingredients such as peptides to support firmness and hydration (consider Advanced RGN-6), and always use broad-spectrum sunscreen daily. At night, incorporate a retinoid or gentle exfoliant to boost cell turnover and improve texture and tone. Consistent use is key to maintaining a youthful, healthy complexion.
