How To Take Care Of Your Neck and Decollete
The number one rule to follow is: Do not let your skin care stop at your jawline. The areas surrounding your face, such as your neck and décolleté are equally important to care for when it comes to stopping the aging process. You can use almost all the same products on your neck and décolleté, as you do on your face, but keep in mind that this skin is a little more fragile and thin. It is recommended to steer clear from physical exfoliants and harsh peels for this area.
The thin and fragile skin we are discussing is the upper chest area, including your neck, cleavage, and shoulder area. These areas are extremely exposed to heat and cold, environmental pollution, sun exposure, and gravity, so it comes to no surprise that these areas are the first to show signs of damage.
Nine out of ten times, your current products will be all you need to keep things lifted, hydrated, and protected. Be sure to spread these products on your chest and when massaging your neck always use an upward motion as to not encourage pre-mature sagging in any way.
The sensitive skin of the décolleté can’t produce as much oil as the face, which makes it especially vulnerable to radiation from the sun and in turn accelerates the aging process. The best way to keep safe from the sun’s radiation is to lather your chest with an all natural sunscreen. As for your neck, it’s important to know that this area stores very little collagen, so you should definitely invest in collagen products.
