When it comes to skin care, how often do you think about your neck and décolleté? If you’re like most women, these delicate areas probably don’t get as much love as your face — but they should!
Your skin is thinner and less oily on your neck and chest, so you’re more prone to fine lines, wrinkles and sagging in these areas. However, with the right care, you can keep your neck and décolleté looking just as youthful and glowing as your complexion.
Read on to discover the Comfort Zone skin care products you need to pamper these often-overlooked areas at home!
How is the skin on my neck and décolleté different from the skin on my face?
The skin on your neck and chest has fewer sebaceous glands, which means it doesn’t produce as much natural moisture, leaving it drier and more vulnerable to dehydration. With fewer fat cells, this area is also thinner, so it’s more prone to sagging, crepiness and fine lines over time.
Your neck and décolleté also get more sun exposure than most other areas of your body. Without regular SPF protection, they can be some of the first spots to show signs of aging, like dark spots, fine lines and loss of firmness.
Since the skin in these areas are often neglected in skincare routines, they deserve some extra attention to stay smooth, radiant and healthy.
What can I do to take better care of my neck and décollete?
Our esthetician Morgan recommends Comfort Zone’s Sublime Skin line designed especially for anti-aging skin care. Formulated with hydrating hyaluronic acid, collagen-boosting peptides, and yarrow extract — known to visibly reduce the appearance of wrinkles up to 25% — these products help give smoother, more youthful-looking skin.
Our 75-Minute Lifting & Toning Anti-Aging Facial will cleanse, exfoliate, and moisturize your skin with Comfort Zone’s Sublime Skin products to slow down its premature aging. You’ll also enjoy a scalp and shoulder massage as this facial improves your overall tone, texture and hydration for a beautiful, healthy glow.
How can I take care of my neck and décolleté outside of the spa?
You can take home with you Comfort Zone’s Sublime Skin products to extend your anti-aging regimen beyond Tyler Mason. Morgan recommends applying these products not only to your face but also bringing them down to your neck and décolleté to lift, firm and hydrate these delicate areas.
Sublime Skin Lift & Firm Ampoules: After cleansing your face, begin your anti-aging skincare routine with these concentrated hyaluronic acid ampoules. They restore your skin tone and firmness as they smooth out the appearance of your fine lines and wrinkles.
Sublime Skin Intensive Serum: Whether you’re experiencing the first signs of aging or have deep fine lines and wrinkles, this serum will give you a botox-like effect. Your skin will be firmer, smoother and tighter after using this lightweight, fast-absorbing serum.
Sublime Skin Rich Cream: After the Intensive Serum has absorbed into your skin, follow with this replumping and hydrating Rich Cream. This moisturizer not only nourishes your skin but it also helps promote collagen and elastin production for visibly firmer, plumper skin.
How else can I prevent skin aging on my neck and décolleté?
Keeping your neck and décolleté looking youthful starts with a few easy daily habits:
- Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated and glowing.
- Don’t forget SPF — sun damage is a top culprit for aging skin.
- Avoid spraying your perfume directly on your neck and chest. Its alcohol can dry out your skin and make it more sensitive to sunlight as well.
