Your 50s are a momentous chapter in your life, filled with wisdom and grace. As you embrace this new phase, your skin may undergo changes that require a skincare routine tailored to your evolving needs. At LATHER, we believe that aging is a beautiful journey, and with our mindful, science-backed products, you can continue to radiate timeless beauty.

Our goal is to help you feel good with wellness products that are crafted through joyful collaboration with nature and the latest scientific research. As explorers at heart and trusted problem solvers, we've curated the best skincare routine for your 50s (and some staffer secrets), designed to nourish your skin and celebrate your ageless glow.

The Beauty of Age: Changes to Embrace in Your 50s

Entering your 50s is a moment of self-assuredness and self-discovery. While you may cherish the wisdom you've gained this decade, your skin might experience some unique changes that leave you feeling frustrated. Fine lines, especially in the neck area, can become more apparent. Sunspots and loose skin around the neck and body may also require special attention. As caretakers, we are here to guide you through a skincare routine that nurtures and celebrates the beauty of aging.

Step 1: Gentle and Loving Cleansing

Start your mornings with our Ultra Mild Face Wash, one of our gentle face cleansers that purifies your skin without compromising its essential moisture. This nourishing face wash is infused with soothing botanical extracts, providing a fresh canvas for your day ahead.

Step 2: Targeted Care for Eyes and Neck

In your 50s, the delicate skin around your eyes and neck deserves targeted care, which is why eye creams are so important. Cue our Toning Eye Gel with Peptides or intensively moisturizing Australian Plum Eye Crème to address fine lines and promote a more youthful appearance. These specialized treatments are formulated to revive your eyes with nature’s best moisturizers, antioxidant-rich superfruits.

Step 3: Embrace Antioxidant Serums

As explorers in the field of skincare, we understand the power of antioxidants. Incorporate a potent serum, like our Wrinkle Remedy Serum, into your routine to combat environmental stress and nurture your skin's resilience. This serum is packed with phytonutrients, proteins, and long-living cells to visibly reduce wrinkle depth, protect skin from environmental stress, and promote the skin’s ability to self-renew. Another powerful option is the Vitamin C Peptide Renewal Serum, which uses a stable form of vitamin C to boost skin luminosity and help smooth the appearance of uneven texture.

Step 4: Mega Moisture and Nourishment

Hydration is paramount in your 50s, so be sure to invest in a good face moisturizer. Cue the Mega Moisture Magnet, a hyaluronic acid hydration powerhouse serum infused with barrier protecting ceramides and squalane. This moisturizer is formulated with powerful humectants that attract and bind moisture to the skin, producing an immediate plumping effect to smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Step 5: Nighttime Renewal and Nourishment

As you unwind at night, treat your skin to a moisturizing night ritual. Our milky Chia Seed  & Passion Fruit Cleansing Oil is a gentle makeup remover that dissolves dirt while nourishing and soothing skin. Follow it up with our Caviar Lime AHA Cleansing Crème to reveal smoother, more balanced, and even-looking skin. Seal in the benefits with the Australian Plum Night Crème, a renewing anti-aging treatment that protects skin from oxidative stress and supports healthy collagen while you sleep.
