Your Go-To Guide for Layering Skincare After 40

Let’s be real—our skin changes a lot after 40. What worked in our 20s or 30s may no longer cut it. Hormonal shifts, fine lines, dryness, and a need for extra care mean it’s time to rethink how we layer skincare. The good news? With the right products, natural actives, and techniques, your skin can still look radiant, healthy, and full of life.

Here’s a simple guide to layering your skincare like a pro, using natural, effective ingredients that love your skin back.


Step 1: Cleanse to Refresh and Reset

Cleansing is the foundation of any skincare routine. It removes impurities and ensures your skin is prepped to absorb the goodness of the products that follow.

  • Gel Cleanser: Suitable for all skin types, it features:

    • Wheatgrass Extract: Detoxifies and restores vitality.
    • Green Tea Extract: Protects and calms skin, neutralising free radicals.
      Shop the Gel Cleanser
  • Milk/Cream Cleanser: Ideal for dry or sensitive skin, enriched with:

    • Desert Lime: Packed with antioxidants to support the skin’s barrier.
    • Cucumber Extract: Hydrates and soothes for a refreshed complexion.
      Shop the Milk Cleanser

Step 2: Tone for Balance and Radiance

Toning is the perfect next step to refresh your skin and prep it for the rest of your routine. Our hydrating toner not only balances but also gently exfoliates to leave your skin looking brighter and feeling softer.

  • Quandong (Australian Native Peach): A natural source of vitamin C and AHAs, it smooths fine lines, brightens dark circles, and reduces pigmentation.
  • Kakadu Plum: A powerhouse of antioxidants, it revitalises and hydrates skin.

Bonus: This toner acts as a natural AHA, providing gentle exfoliation while delivering a burst of hydration for radiant, glowing skin.

Step 3: Supercharge Your Routine with a Serum

Serums are your targeted treatment heroes. They address specific concerns like hydration, ageing, or repair, making them an essential step in your routine.

  • Hyaluronic Acid + Vegetable Collagen: Draws in moisture to plump and hydrate while supporting elasticity.
  • Vitamin A (Retinyl Palmitate): Improves texture, minimises pores, and repairs sun damage.
  • Sea Buckthorn + Gotu Kola: Repairs and nourishes while promoting blood flow for a youthful glow.
  • Vitamin E + Shea Oil: Locks in hydration and smooths skin for a soft, silky finish.

Choose a serum tailored to your skin’s needs and let these potent ingredients work their magic.

Step 4: Seal It All In with a Rich Moisturiser

Moisturising locks in hydration and completes your routine. For mature skin, look for formulas with deeply nourishing and protective ingredients.

  • Hyaluronic Acid + Hydrolysed Rice Protein: Hydrates and smooths while supporting collagen for firmer skin.
  • Co-Enzyme Q10 + Native Snowflower Extract: Repairs and revitalises for a calm, bright complexion.
  • Desert Lime + Green Tea Extract: Boosts moisture retention, refreshes dull skin, and soothes with antioxidants.

Massage your moisturiser into your face, neck, and décolletage, ensuring every area is hydrated and glowing.

Step 5: Sunscreen—Your Skin’s Daily Shield

Protecting your skin from UV damage is essential at any age. Opt for a broad-spectrum sunscreen with natural mineral ingredients like Zinc Oxide to prevent premature ageing


Extra Tips for Your Best Skin Yet

  • Exfoliate Weekly: Use a gentle exfoliant to remove dead skin cells and boost product absorption.
  • Be Consistent: Stick to your routine—results come with time and dedication.
  • Tailor Your Routine: Adjust your products as your skin changes with the seasons or lifestyle shifts.

By following these steps and embracing nourishing, natural ingredients, you’ll enjoy healthier, more radiant skin at every stage of life!
