Starting an anti-aging skincare routine early can prevent premature signs of aging, but it's never too late to begin. Consistency is key—allow about three months to see noticeable results from.
When do you start an Age balancing skin care routine?
It’s never too early to start an anti-aging skin care routine. Never too late, either. Starting younger is better — before your skin starts to age naturally. There’s no rule saying that an anti-aging routine can’t start in your 30s, 40s or 50s and beyond. While you won’t erase decades of damage to your skin, some signs of aging can be stopped, and even reversed at least to some extent in a lot of people.
Give it time
Allow your products time to work. Skin care is more of a marathon than a sprint. Undoing years of aging won’t happen overnight.
Give any new skin care products about three months before you can expect to see results.
Whether you are focused on existing signs of aging or defending against premature ones, you will want to layer products that firm, soften, and protect skin from head to toe. But what comes first? Age Balance Night Cream or Under Eye Gel? How often should you apply Face Mask to see fewer age spots? We answer all these questions and more in this complete Day to Night skincare routine for aging and premature aging skin.
The key to healthy, radiant skin is a well-planned Day / Night skincare routine tailored to your specific requirements. In this guide, we will break down the ideal morning and evening skincare routines, including the order of product application. Before we dive in, remember that skincare is not one-size-fits-all, and product choices should align with your skin type or concerns.

Pamper, Protect & Perfect Your Skin for the Day Ahead
In the morning, your primary goal is to prepare your skin to face the challenges of the day. Exposure to harmful UV rays, pollution, and dirt necessitates a proactive approach to skincare.
Step 1: Purple Pompa 3D Hydra Cleanser
Begin your morning skincare routine with our gentle 3D Hydra Face Cleanser. This step is crucial to eliminate oils, bacteria and dust that can accumulate on your skin, particularly after a night's rest. Cleansing sets the stage for the rest of your morning routine. If you’re focused on aging skin, however, our 3D Hydra face cleanser is pH-balanced, and focused on strengthening the moisture barrier, which keeps skin soft, firm, and youthful.
Our Purple Pompa 3D Hydra Face Cleanser will do the trick while also effectively removing dirt, impurities, and excess oil from the skin's surface while maintaining its delicate Ph balance. Packed with antioxidants helps rejuvenate and hydrate the skin, leaving it refreshed and revitalized. Its mild nature makes it suitable for all skin types, especially sensitive skin.
Step 2: Purple Pompa Hyaluronic and Vegan collagen 3D Hydra Serum OR Tripeptide & Ceramide Age Balance Serum.
Serums are designed to deliver a concentrated dose of active ingredients to your skin, yielding faster results. Serums contains high amounts of active ingredients, and its highly concentrated formulation makes it a great tool for targeting specific skincare conditions. Since serums are lightweight, they should be applied post cleansing and toning. To maximize their benefits, follow with 3D Hydra moisturizer.
3D Hydra serum has 2% Hyaluronic Acid that Hydrates & Retains Skin’s Moisture. Vegan Collagen reduces Fine lines & Wrinkles. Aquaxyl deeply hydrates & Strengthens Skin Barrier.
Age Balance Serum smooths fine lines & wrinkles. Prevents Skin Aging & protects against stress and pollution. Repairs skin barrier & boosts hydration.
Step 4: TRIPEPTIDE & VEGAN COLLAGEN AGE BALANCE UNDER EYE GEL
The delicate skin around your eyes requires special care. Under eye gels have a lighter texture than regular face moisturizers and are designed to target issues like aging or puffiness. Applying under eye gel before moisturizer prevents interference with your eye cream's absorption. Purple Pompa Age Balance Under Eye Gel contains actives like Tripeptides and Vegan Collagen to target specific concerns with your eye area such as ageing, dark circles or puffiness. It enhances under eye firmness, reduces crow’s feet and fades dark circles.
STEP 5: Purple Pompa 3D Hydra Moisturizer to minimize visible signs of aging
Did you know? Moisture levels dip as we age, which makes hydrating skin more important than ever. Hydrated skin is healthy skin. And healthy skin looks younger. As we age, our skin naturally creates less oil. For some additional aging skin benefits, smooth on to Purple Pompa 3D Hydra Moisturiser, a powerful product that helps to smooth fine lines, firm skin, and reduce moisture loss, as such, it's a key part of your morning skincare routine. To use, apply the moisturizer to your face and neck after any serum. Start from the centre and massage outwards. If you can find a little extra time in the morning, use this opportunity as an ideal time to treat yourself to a mini facial massage.
Step 6: Finish with Ultra Blue Shield Sunscreen to prevent sun damage
Every skin type needs sunscreen, but this step should most definitely not be skipped if fine lines and age spots are a concern. Fact: 90% of aging skin is not actually due to growing older, but due to extrinsic damage—like the sun. Make sure you’re applying one with atleast SPF 30, as recommended by the FDA. Use our broad-spectrum sunscreen, like Ultra Blue Shield Sunscreen that defends against blue light rays and pollution, too.
Regular use of sunscreen is hands-down the most important product in your anti-aging routine. And not just for summer or when you’re going to be outside on a sunny day. Use sunscreen every day.
Sunlight emits both UVA and UVB rays. Think of it like this: UVA for aging. UVB for burning.
So, even on days when the sunshine isn’t at peak sunburn level, it’s still emitting those UVA aging rays. And UVA is sneaky. It affects you through the windows in your home or office and through your car’s windshield.
Typically, people don’t experience a sunburn if they’re in the car for a long time, but they still get the aging effects from the sun or if you go on a quick walk on your lunch break on a cloudy day, you probably aren’t going to get a sunburn, but you’re still absorbing those rays and damaging your skin.
Regardless of the time of year, sunscreen has many anti-aging benefits. For example, exposure to UVA and UVB rays can mean sun damage, which is one of the main culprits of premature signs of aging. To ensure your skin is protected against the elements, apply Ultra Blue Shield sunscreen after your 3D Hydra moisturizer.
