Urban Pollution Accelerates Ageing Skin

City Living Ages Skin 10% Faster than Countryside

If you live and work in London, you’ll know how quickly grime and pollution build up on the skin. 

A break in less urban areas often means that the skin is simply cleaner at the end of the day. 

But did you know that urban pollution can contribute to ageing the skin?

A study of 200 Chinese women suggested that urban pollution could cause the skin to age 10% faster than those who live in the cleaner air of the countryside. (Olay study 2014, Proctor & Gamble). 

To combat the premature ageing effects of pollution, city dwellers need to pay extra attention to skincare. 

A good daily regime will always include a cleanser morning and evening. Choosing the right one makes an enormous difference to the skin. Firstly, the cleanser needs to be thorough and effective, but the latest cleansing products from Circadia Skincare (available at Clinicbe®) offer additional benefits which can soothe or stimulate the skin for added benefit.
