Three years ago, when I was 60, this was one of the most exciting results I experienced from using the NIRA Pro laser. I used the NIRA Precision laser for 10 months, and this laser gave me a new result, using it twice a day, with it's larger opening allowed me to cover the area above my eyelid. I not only improved the crepey skin texture, but I also was able to reverse the chicken skin above my eyes. @NIRA_skin Timestamps: 00:00 – NIRA Precision Results 01:00 – NIRA Pro Laser Results: Smoothing Crepey Eye Texture & Chicken Skin 01:58 – Before & After Makeup Look Product Affiliate Link: NIRA Pro Plus - https://go.shopmy.us/p-51214244 NIRA Playlist - https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgZQ00da9k8hdqJZJ2pjXqqgm-ezyGxCT&si=e3YXDjmk1PSg4XS_ SUBSCRIBE TO MY NEWSLETTER https://www.annevolving.com/ FREE DOWNLOADS Anne’s Skincare Regimen - https://www.annevolving.com/aeskincareregimen Habit Tracker - https://www.annevolving.com/category/all-products Time Block Scheduler - https://www.annevolving.com/category/all-products Menu Planning Guide - https://www.annevolving.com/category/all-products High Protein Foods - https://www.annevolving.com/category/all-products SHOP PRODUCTS, AFFILIATE LINKS: NIRA Pro Plus - https://go.shopmy.us/p-51214244 Alloy Women’s Health - https://alloy.sjv.io/xLgeZ1 iRESTORE Elite hair growth laser - https://glnk.io/2xq50/annevolving DRMTLGY – https://get.aspr.app/SH19mq * Favorite products - Universal Tinted Sunscreen SPF46, Needleless Serum MAELOVE SKINCARE - https://go.shopmy.us/p-41757383 Maelove Glowmaker (Vit C) - https://go.shopmy.us/p-3754562 Maelove Moonlight Advanced Retinal Serum (Vit A) - https://go.shopmy.us/p-3754561 Maelove Peptide Squad - https://go.shopmy.us/p-7385573 Maelove Night Renewer Glycolic Acid Cream - https://go.shopmy.us/p-17416899 SHOP MY SHELVES https://shopmy.us/annevolving POPULAR PLAYLISTS: Antiaging Skincare Over 50 - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?

In this video, I’m talking about how I approach active ingredients in my own mature skincare routine, including retinoids, L-ascorbic acid vitamin C, and exfoliating acids. Mature skin can absolutely benefit from powerful, evidence-based ingredients—but the key is finding effective strengths your skin tolerates well enough to use consistently. As my skin has changed through menopause and into my 60s, I’ve learned that stronger doesn’t necessarily mean better. Instead of chasing high percentages that risk damaging the skin barrier, I focus on gentle, consistent routines that deliver real results over time. 📌 Timestamps & Chapters: 00:00 – Effective Skincare for Mature Skin 01:03 – Does Older Skin Need Stronger Products? 02:18 – Retinoids: The "Low & Slow" Rule 03:17 – Vitamin C Percentages: Potency vs. Irritation 04:56 – Exfoliating Acids 05:58 – Building a Balanced Anti-Aging Routine 07:13 – 7-Day Skin Barrier Reset & Final Takeaways This is part of my Older Skin = ? series, where I’m questioning assumptions about what mature skin supposedly needs. ▶️ Watch my video on how to start using retinoids: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PVad29p4074 ▶️ Watch more from the Older Skin = ? series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0TQOabYY_gU&list=PLCfrdL9RZE6M Find my full mature skincare regimen and resources at AnnEvolving.com. #MatureSkin #SkincareOver60 #SkincareOver50 FREE DOWNLOADS Anne’s Skincare Regimen - https://www.annevolving.com/aeskincareregimen SHOP MY SHELVES https://shopmy.us/annevolving POPULAR PLAYLISTS: Antiaging Skincare Over 50 - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?

Why dry skin makes your pores look so big 💧 Think of your face like a dry sponge. When it lacks water, the texture gets rough and pores stand out. Hyaluronic acid acts like a drink of water that inflates those skin cells so everything looks plump and smooth. #hyaluronicacid #skincaretips #hydration #poreless #skincareroutine #shorts

Once you have Vitamins A, B & C, in your mature skincare routine, think about peptides next! Here's why: Peptides are tiny protein chains that signal change at the molecular level. They boost collagen and elastin production to give your face a real lift instead of a sag. Combined with hyaluronic acid, it is the ultimate fix for firmer skin. ✨ #skincaretips #peptides #collagenbooster #skincareroutine #firmerskin #shorts
