Get Your Skin Ready for Summer: Keep Your Neck & Décolleté Supple & Bright

Sun exposure is the main culprit of skin damage and because the skin on the neck and chest is more delicate, damage can become rapidly visible. Fortunately, there are a few easy ways to smooth out those lines.

Sun Protect: The skin on your décolletage is very thin and often receives the most incidental sun exposure, so it tends to be the first place the visible signs of aging start to show. Make sure to apply >30 SPF to this area (neck & bust) at least once per day. When applying products to your neck, make sure to swipe product up rather than down and apply moisturizers and serums in circular motions on that area.

Use a Jade Roller: Jade Rollers are a great way to smooth out wrinkles on your décolletage. Start by cleansing then apply a small amount of serum or oil to your skin. Slowly roll the Jade Roller in an upward motion, ensuring not to be too aggressive in your movement. Do it slowly, taking the time to rub away any tension and stress and allowing the jade to cool the skin. Apply gentle pressure while rolling the jade over your skin which will assist in sweeping away toxins and balancing excess fluid.

Apply a Beauty Oil or Serum: Another way to keep your neck and décolleté smooth and youthful-looking is to apply a repairing serum or beauty oil daily and/or nightly. Look for serums and oils that contain skin hydrators (eg. hyaluronic acid), brighteners (eg. vitamin C, alpha arbutin) and anti-oxidants (eg. organ oil) for maximum benefit. Apply in upward and outward motions to support collagen-building and lymphatic drainage. Use a jade roller (as outlined above) to add more soothing massage benefit.
