Skin is the largest organ of the human body. Like other bodily systems, aging can cause a decline in skin’s ability to function and self-rejuvenate, which will inevitably impact its healthy appearance. Establishing a skin care routine designed to target the root causes of aging rather than just the symptoms can benefit your skin’s health and appearance for years to come.

Can you repair aged skin? What is the most effective treatment for aging skin?
If you are constantly wondering “how to reverse aging skin?” or “what happens to skin as a person ages?”, it’s important to first note that it is entirely possible to treat aging skin that has potentially suffered from years of damage. In fact, OneSkin’s OS-01 peptide has been scientifically proven to reverse the biological age of skin by preventing the accumulation of senescent cells [1,2] -- damaged skin cells that, if left to linger in skin, cause inflammation and accelerated aging. This is made possible by the OS-01 peptide’s ability to promote cellular repair pathways, increase the activity of key biomarkers associated with healthy skin (i.e. hyaluronic acid and collagen production), and suppress the activity of biomarkers associated with damaged skin (i.e. aging and inflammation). [1,2]How do the benefits of the OS-01 peptide show up visibly? In a 12-week spit-face clinical study, in which the effects of the OS-01 peptide were measured, the OS-01 peptide improved skin barrier function, hydration, texture, wrinkles, and radiance. [1,3]

How do you rejuvenate aging skin?
Several lifestyle changes can aid in rejuvenating aging skin. Here a few:
- Establish a consistent skin care routine: By establishing a scientifically-backed skin care regimen, you can promote skin to heal from damage and improve its defenses against further damage that can accelerate the appearance of aging. For those on the go or with inconsistent schedules, our travel-size skin care products offer a convenient solution.
- Changes in diet: Adding different types of healthy vitamins and minerals through diet is an effective way to give your body the nutrition it needs to heal. Some of the best foods for skin repair include fish for omega-3’s, bell peppers for beta carotene, and tomatoes for vitamin C. [4]
- Cleansing: As you may know, the benefits of cleansing your face daily are vast as this step in the process removes dirt, product buildup, and toxins that could accelerate skin damage and may be blocking topically applied beneficial ingredients from reaching the deeper layers of your mature skin.

What is the best skin care routine for aging skin?
Skin care routines aren’t a one-size-fits-all, but there are some common elements to an effective skin care routine that are universally beneficial:
- Sunscreen: Regular use of sunscreen on sun-exposed skin is instrumental in protecting your skin from damage caused by the UV rays of the sun, which cause up to 80% of visible signs of aging. [6]
- Cleanse: Cleansing your skin with a gentle gel cleanser at least once per day will remove built-up debris in order for your skin to fully absorb the ingredients from the rest of your routine. [4]
- Moisturize: Moisturizing the skin is important for maintaining a healthy skin barrier. Better yet, opt for a moisturizer that also contains scientifically and clinicaly validated ingredients proven to improve skin's health and longevity, like OneSkin's Topical Supplements. OS-01 FACE, OS-01 EYE, and OS-01 BODY all contain the scientifically-proven OS-01 peptide and are clinically validated to improve skin's barrier function, hydration, and texture. [1, 2, 3]

What are 4 steps for an aging skin care routine?
1. Cleanser: A gentle daily cleanser such as OneSkin's PREP is an important first step of any skin care regimen. By gently cleansing and removing dirt and debris, the skin will be ready to absorb the beneficial ingredients from the rest of your skin care routine.2. Moisturize: Moisturizing is important for replenishing the skin’s natural oils and moisture levels. During showering, especially with hot water, the naturally occurring oils are stripped from the skin. By moisturizing, the moisture content in skin is restored and skin can regenerate more efficiently. (5)3. Use ingredients that target skin aging: To super power your skin care regimen for aging skin consider implementing topical products that contain ingredients designed to specifically target the root causes of skin aging. OneSkin’s Topical Supplement, such as OS-01 FACE, OS-01 EYE, and OS-01 BODY , are formulated as daily peptide moisturizers with the scientifically-proven OS-01 peptide.4. Sunscreen: No matter the season or your plans for the day, it is important to apply sunscreen on a daily basis to prevent premature skin aging. Be sure to choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30.
