7 TIPS FOR REGAINING FIRMER SKIN
With age, the oval of the face becomes less defined, and features lose their tone. This is due to a decrease in collagen and hyaluronic acid levels in the skin tissues. Collagen production begins to decline as early as age 25. This is why we always recommend taking collagen supplements to prevent sagging skin.
Prevention is your best ally in avoiding sagging skin. But it's also possible to regain firmer skin by following these few tips.
WEAR SUN PROTECTION
Most skin problems are due to UV exposure: wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, enlarged pores… Even if you don’t live by the sea, you are still exposed daily to UVA rays, which are the main cause of aging and the degradation of collagen levels.
UV rays are incredibly powerful and can significantly accelerate the premature aging process of the skin. It is therefore essential to wear sunscreen daily to protect your collagen and maintain firm, supple skin.
USE FIRMING AND ANTI-AGEING SKINCARE
Nature provides precious anti-aging ingredients that inspire our brands to create powerful skincare products: skin regeneration, collagen production, and alternatives to hyaluronic acid or retinol. Among these precious ingredients are horsetail, alfalfa, tremella, astragalus, gotu kola, bee venom, and inca inchi.

GETTING A GOOD SLEEP
Lack of sleep has a direct impact on skin quality. At night, the skin regenerates and repairs itself, so getting regular, good nights of sleep is essential for healthy skin and a healthy body.
RELIEVE STRESS
Stress can also have harmful effects on the skin. When stressed, the adrenal glands secrete a hormone called cortisol. When cortisol levels rise, it helps the body manage stress. However, this also limits the body's ability to fight inflammation and infections, and weakens the immune system. It therefore prevents the body from repairing itself properly. By hindering the body's regeneration, cortisol is consequently also responsible for the degradation of collagen and the loss of elastin in the skin.
PRACTICE FACIAL MASSAGE
At Bazar Bio, we advocate facial self-massage for at least 5 minutes a day. It lifts, plumps, stimulates and revitalizes the lymphatic and circulatory systems, redefines facial contours, and relaxes features. 5 minutes a day is enough for real, immediate, and long-term results. The secret is consistency!
STAY WELL HYDRATED
It is recommended to drink between 1.5 and 2 liters of water per day. Drinking enough water will help maintain your skin's hydration and elasticity.
SUPPLEMENTING YOUR COLLAGEN
Collagen is the most important structural protein in your skin. It's what gives us plump, smooth, and bouncy skin. Unfortunately, its production decreases starting around age 25. This can lead to the formation of wrinkles, more pronounced facial lines, and drier skin. But you can replenish this lost collagen with cosmetic products or dietary supplements.
